Hex Talk #2

Well, 2020 has been kind of a bitch, right? Fear not! Social distancing hasn’t affected the cast and crew of the Hex Talk Podcast. We’re just lazy. We’re back! Again. In this all-new episode of the Hex Talk Podcast, your stalwart hosts Eric, Jason and Jose talk about sandbox ready products and reveal the secret to knowing if a product is truly “OSR” or not. The answer might anger you! If it does, know that we’re laughing. At you. Not with you. http://thecastellanscorner.blogspot.com/2014/01/ https://www.theskyfullofdust.co.uk/bol/ https://watabou.itch.io/one-page-dungeon http://www.necropraxis.com/tag/wonder-wickedness/ http://lowfantasygaming.com https://osricrpg.com/wizardawn https://watabou.itch.io/one-page-dungeon https://dungen.app/dungen/

Welp, this should have been out BEFORE Gary Con, but it’s out now. So, you won’t be able to visit Eric’s hotel room, but you can still visit his home knob (full home address given in the episode…just go right down to the basement). In this episode, Jason, Eric and Jose talk about generating player interest and answer a good listener question about encounter tables. Come check out our Discord server and our new Forums.

“Just sit right back and you’ll hear a cast, a pod ’bout a hex or two. It’s three old nerdy white guys, hex-talking right to you.” Sing that to the theme of Gilligan’s Island. Not sure why, since we reference the Love Boat theme in this episode. Whatever. Anyways, the guys are back with another irreverent episode of Hex Talk! In episode six, Jason, Eric and Jose talk about player agency and GM anxiety, and they give underpants talks on their shared-GM hex crawl setting, The Forlorn Shores. They also answer a listener question and read some comments. This is the most important thing you’ll listen to during your morning poop, probably. Thanks for listening!

After a long hiatus, Jason, Eric and Jose have returned to service all of your hex-crawling needs!
