The Fist Full of Comics and Games guys got me this interview from GenCon 2008 with Scott Rouse, D&D Brand Manager at WotC.
It's the "Lost GenCon Interview". Duh duh duh.
Anyway, I also play a promo for Quarter Life, a fantastic Podcast novel.
Also, we have the winners of the Secret Code contest, but by the time I got the names I had already recorded this. So here they are in print, and I'll give them a shout out on the next episode.
