On the topic of sanity mechanics, Cole's been checking out Darkest Dungeon 2 (0:04:10) and has found this new one has more interesting interpersonal connections. Also, it's less about treasure hunting and more about restoring the hope of the world.
Then, of course, we spend a decent while talking Tears of the Kingdom (0:14:59).

In any case, Marley takes this opportunity to explore the 110 year history of the Spaceship Theseus with a really good world-building game.
See, the world-building game in question isThe Ground Itself by Everest Pipkin. It's an evolution of The Quiet Year with some Microscope thrown in.

Then, Cole chats about Mikhail Bulgakov's The Master and Margarita, thankfully without spoiler warnings.

Cults
Sworn by Ghostlight: The Ebon Woods Effigies is a mystery adventure game by Matthew John (@yuigaron) that utilizes tables and dice rolls to throw out the threads to solve a mystery as an occultist detective in a parallel Victorian London. Oh and the moon is dripping an ominous fluid called Ghostlight.
In this adventure, Cole takes on the role of Lucille Deleuc, a reluctant Warden in the work of the Occult Detectives, with no memory of their past before working i...2022-12-291h 49Inside The Table: A Tabletop RPG Talk Show15. The Year In ReviewAs the year comes to a close, Marley and Cole look back at the year that was and the tabletop games we checked out. We reflect back on the games we chose to look at, the games that stuck with ous, and, hell, even our favourites of the fourty-four games we looked at the last six months.
First, Cole chats about AEW Wrestling, finishing Norco, and Scarlet Hollow. Marley, meanwhile, has been getting into gangster films since working on his own Goncharov game and found Boardwalk Empire to be an oddly different way of telling a gangster...2022-12-161h 36Inside The Table: A Tabletop RPG Talk Show14. Pickle-Pee, Pump-A-RumIn this episode, Cole and Marley talk about how to break a TTRPG, because sometimes you just gotta.
But first, Marley has finished off watching the first season of Andor and Star Wars is back, baybeee!
Meanwhile, Cole got engaged, watched Bocchi The Rock!, read Melancholy Her, finished Citizen Sleeper, streamed Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and started a playthrough of Disco Elysium.
And we're not even twenty minutes into the episode!
Cole kicks off tabletop talk by chatting about playing Skelpielimmer's Desperado Playbook in a Blades in the Dark oneshot and h...2022-12-011h 43Inside The Table: A Tabletop RPG Talk Show13. Quip EmwisIn this very special episode, Marley is playing through a solo game of Notorious by Jason Price as Cole was feeling a little under the weather.
Now, Notorious is a game about a bounty hunter (or a nomad in the parlance of this game) tracking down their target on a strange planet. They mess around with the local factions, cause trouble, build reputation, and eventually come face to face with their target in a dangerous showdown. It's also a game that feels so much like an episode of The Mandalorian with its incredible random event tables that...2022-11-181h 59Inside The Table: A Tabletop RPG Talk Show12. What Is The Bones?This episode, we're chatting about how art changes how we approach tabletop RPGs! It's also kind of a Halloween episode!
But first, Marley chats Guillermo Del Toro's Cabinent of Curiosities (which he has found largely mediocre, with a handful of enjoyable episodes) whereas Cole has been enjoying Nona The Ninth, the latest book in Tamsyn Muir's Locked Tomb series. They also went to an Everything Everywhere All At Once themed birthday party??
Then, Cole kicks off Tabletop Talk by discussing Atsuhiro Okada's Ryuutama, a Table-Talk RPG game which feels like a video game brought into...2022-11-041h 30Inside The Table: A Tabletop RPG Talk Show11. Chamomile & LavenderAfter a week off (curse you, Pax Pox...), your co-hosts return, this time to discuss pitching Tabletop Games, both to players and to the world at large.
But first, Marley talks about his experience attending PAX Aus, along with seeing panels, celebrities, and talks about the sheer number of TTRPGs he played while he was there...
Cole, on the other side of the planet, talks hanging with AshenWorks and playing fun games in person. They've also been getting into commentating for MLE Esports GG and using Word of the Day to expand their vocabulary. Also...2022-10-271h 48

So instead, Marley's playing a solo game of Anomaly: Containment Breach by Sniper Serpent. It's a really fun Quiet Year-hack inspired by the SCP Foundation and video game Control, and it's one of Marley's absolute favourites.
Now, it is a light horror game, so content warning for mind control, mild violence (including supernatural violence and implied murder...2022-10-061h 26Inside The Table: A Tabletop RPG Talk Show9. Nice Food Made By Nicolas CageThis episode, we're talking about all the ways roleplaying games shape and restrict the roles we play in them.
But first, Marley checked out Nicolas Cage's Pig, which he describes as a non-violent John Wick film set in the seedy underbelly of the Portland haute cuisine scene. It was way weirder than he expected it to be, but still rad.
Cole meanwhile has been watching Beaststars. It's a bizarre anime that is eerily like Zootopia, only with much more sex and violence (and is much better). Cole fears it may have awakened something in them...2022-09-221h 38Inside The Table: A Tabletop RPG Talk Show8. Good Games Done Stressfully (feat. AshenWorks!)This episode, we're joined by special guest Brandon AKA AshenWorks (@Ashen_Works) of Huntsmen's Hydra (@HuntsmensHydra) to talk about Blades in the Dark and the Forged in the Dark genre as a whole.
But, to start with, Cole is stumbling back into Destiny 2, finding too much story and a crafting system? We also spend some time talking about Lance Reddick, because of course we do.
Then, Marley chats about... doing book layouts in Google Docs? Making a work look nice before writing it has gotten him inspired, and helped him finish a horror game, The Ni...2022-09-082h 05Inside The Table: A Tabletop RPG Talk Show7. Roll. Resist. Fallout. (feat. Scampir!)Today, we're talking Sparked by the Resistance games with game designer Scampir!
But first, we chat about the strange things RadioTVsolutions have been up to (something about Half Life with self-aware AI?), the weirdness of Xenoblade Chronicles 3, ethical quandries in Cult of the Lamb, and thick thick fantasy book, The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon.
Marley also revisits Jennifer Park's Discandying Cleopatra: Preserving Cleopatra's Infinite Variety in Shakespeare's "Anthony and Cleopatra", a fascinating essay he read in university which uses the metaphor of food preservation to examine Cleopatra's position in that play. 2022-08-262h 02

Inside The Table: A Tabletop RPG Talk Show3. Bank Bank UtopiaAh, the FATHOM Playtest (v0.21) deep dive.... A whole episode where we sit down to do a book report on an incredibly interesting and surreal tabletop RPG that we've been reading, playing, and thinking about a whole lot.
But first, we spend some time talking about similarly weird and surreal media that we've been checking out. Marley's been watching The Truman Show and thinking a lot about the rise of personality-focused media on Twitch, YouTube, and even Podcasts over the past few decades. Turns out, the future is more-cost effective than an elaborate, city-sized film set.
