Worlds Apart Episode 0 – Aliens X Dwarves

We’re trying out some new stuff as we’re having a look at overhauling the stretch goals on the Hearty Dice Friends patreon, and one of the first ones is a show called World Apart where Chris and I design a world live on air.

If you like it and would like to hear more, or if you have any ideas for concepts for shows, please let us know!

Hearty Dice Friends Episode 40 – Juggalo Lunch Club

ON THIS WEEK’S EPISODE:

– Timed games?
– Lunchtime roleplaying?
– James Bond?
– Beer and/or pretzels?
– New players?

And many more. Also we’re very sorry but Grant had some ambient noise on his track that we can’t remove; hopefully you’ll be able to struggle through and pick out what he says regardless. One day we’ll be able to afford sound-proofing equipment. ONE DAY.

We love you. Hop on our shoulders, and we’ll give you a great view of the band.

– Grumbo and Crumbo
