Hello Creatures! We’re stepping into your feed today with heavy hearts. After a lot of thought and reflection, we’ve decided to place Encounter This! on an indefinite hiatus. This wasn’t an easy decision, this show has meant the world to us, and being able to explore the weird, wild, and wonderful parts of the tabletop RPG world with you has been a genuine joy. Unfortunately, life has gotten busier, priorities have shifted and no matter how we try to reduce the workload, there is a ton that goes into delivering each and every episode. We want to assure you that we want so much to return to this project, but we want to do so with the time and energy this show truly deserves and unfortunately, we cannot afford that time and effort at the current moment. We’re incredibly grateful for all of you who’ve listened, shared, and supported us along the way. In fact, still the majority of our current fanbase came from this original labour of love! Your enthusiasm and feedback kept us going, and we couldn’t have asked for a better audience and community. The feed will stay up, so you can revisit your favorite episodes anytime, and we’ll leave our social channels open in case there’s news to share in the future. And we promise every scrap of energy we have dedicate to ET! will be placed elsewhere in our burgeoning network so we can continue to bring you more new content! Who knows what the next iteration might hold? Until then — thank you for the journey. Stay curious, stay creative, and as always… keep on Encountering This!
