Casting ShadowsOn the Fragility or Durability of ImmersionThis episode continues our survey of the topic of 'immersion" with the help of a meaty call-in from Safer plus a further look at the notion of examining the focus of attention through a split lens of immersion and engagement.

Hindsightless333: Persistence of TimeNamed after one of the greatest metal albums from the 80's of all time, this time-themed episode is an interesting one. Instead of the standard format, where callers are responding to things I said on my show, today I have callers responding to things I said on *their* show! How cool is that?!?!  Oh, yeah, Persistence of Time actually came out in 1990, but let's be real, 1990 was really still very 80's.  Podcasts I mention in this episode: Safer Fantasy Crafting: https://anchor.fm/sfc-saferfantasycrafting/episodes/Concepts-of-Time-Part-1---The-fixed-time-continuum-e14djh2 Have to Look That Up: https://anchor.fm/havetolookthatup/episodes/52-Back-in-Singapore-e1ji8a4

Safer Fantasy CraftingCalls & Concurrent initiativeResponses and thoughts on my exploration into what I'm now calling 'concurrent' initiative in DND 5e. I get distracted and go on a rant about our current government in the UK after I had become annoyed at events that had happened on the day of recording. Our UK government has now U-turned on their plans to brazenly abandon even the concept of the Rule of Law, by trying to change parliamentary rules just to allow one of their MP's to avoid a disciplinary charge. But their disdain for us ordinary people remains, loud and clear. Jump to the last half...
