We recorded this in a big hurry between SoCal and the Thanksgiving holiday… then, as always, I took a damned week to post it. But! It’s good. Listen, enjoy, and subscribe.

Once again, OgreCave has some suggestions for holiday gift shoppers in the form of our Christmas Gift Guide 2005. The first part of our annual list, Twelve Games At The End Of The Bed, recommends game gifts for $20 or less apiece. Over the next few days, we’ll put up

Sorry for the delay. We may or may not have a show next week, but this one recorded last week has plenty to chew on, including the long-promised “Magic rant.” I don’t know why I keep saying “for the weekend of” at the top of the show because they’re never

We join up with OC correspondent Steve Kani for a brief, actually-live-in-person Audio Report. To discuss: hey, it’ll be time for the Xmas gift guides soon… what do you want under the tree?

RPG author and Forge co-admin Clinton R. Nixon joins us for an in-depth and rollicking hour of discussion that I just described as though it were the Dick Cavett Program. Follow up here with your questions and comments on anything from indie RPGs to exactly what the hell is up

If you subscribe to the Audio Report feed, you got your show this morning. If you don’t, why the hell not, and you can get it now. Wide ranging discussion this week. To discuss: are any buyers of WizKids’ old stuff looking to buy any of their new stuff? And,

Listen, listen, listen! This week we’d like to know something from the role-players in the audience, insofar as you’re willing to say: how much would you guess that you’ve spent on RPGs this year? If you want to break it out into con expenditures vs. book expenditures vs. other that

My travel plans totally smacked us up, so we will have to pick up again next weekend. We will at least touch on the stuff in last week’s comments next time, but we thought we’d throw out another topic to tide you all over; let’s call it an “open thread”

42 minutes of fresh new recording technique await you. Keep the comments coming, plus you can leave voicemail for ‘misuba’ if you have Skype. The discussion question for next week’s show: who’s going to So Cal? Bring it.

Y’all gave us a lot to talk about last week, and talk we did, for 50 minutes of goodness. The sound is still a little wonky but there aren’t any irritating artifacts this time. Thanks for your patience on that front. Leave comments here on our requested topics or others,

This week’s program, or possibly last week’s, is interactive. That’s right; tell us what you think in the comments of this post right here. You’ll have to listen for more details, as well as the sad tale of my capitulation to the siren call of Warmachine, Chris’ current theories on

Uh, yeah I kinda screwed the pooch on that one. We recorded a quick talk about our experiences playing Hecatomb and Rocketmen, and about the Penny Arcade “CCG” kerfuffle, but the audio levels are way too low and the thing is just horribly noisy and unsalvageable. The worse news is

Audio is smoother than last time, but a bit quiet. (You’d rather hear the end theme music than me anyway.) But it’s there now and you may jump on it. Gently, please – this one’s nearly an hour and we are hosting it ourselves. We’ll see how long that lasts.

Yep, OgreCave’s throwing its hat into the ring, even if the hat’s actually a large iron kettle stolen from that settlement down the road. Our friend Tyler Sigman starts our columns off with the first installment of Parts is Parts, which will take a look at what makes games tick.

Each year, we try to guide our readers (and those who love them) toward the best game products to be released in the past twelve months. This year is no different. The first of our Gift Guide lists, A Dozen Games At The End Of The Bed, is up, providing
