Welcome back!
My apologies it's been so long since I posted an episode. In the last few months, I've started a new job in a completely new field and am adjusting to a new schedule. Thankfully, I think this change will let me start to make content more regularly. Thank you for sticking it out with me!
I had the pleasure to interview Doug Bass from Meridae Games (https://www.meridaegames.com/) about a new game he's working on. Flicking Finches ( https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dougbass/flicking-finches ) is live on Kickstarter and has less than a week left to fund. This dexterity and strategy game has a lot to offer, including some delightful artwork. Check out the episode to hear Doug and I discuss the evolution of board games over the last decade (https://www.thegeekembassy.com/2013/02/25/episode-51-doug-bass-garden-dice/ ) and the process of developing a board game. We had a great time chatting!
Let me know what you think! Chat me up on Twitter @doclizz (https://twitter.com/doclizz)!
Until next time, game on!

S3 E9 - Watching Lord of the Rings as a Mom
Greetings Gentle Listeners!
This week Regina takes us back to the world of Lord of the Rings. She talks about what it's like to watch the trilogy now that she's a mom. Yes... it's been that long since she watched these movies. She touches briefly on how the movies have aged but really takes a deep dive into her own emotional response to one character in particular.
Have you ever had a similar experience? Have you watched a familiar story and had a completely different emotional reaction to one of the characters? Let Regina know on Twitter @DocLizz (https://twitter.com/doclizz)!
Until next time, game on!

S3 E8 - Isabela Oliveira & It Gets Even Better: Stories of Queer Possibility
Greetings gentle listeners!
This week, Regina interviews a regular from The Geek Embassy, Isabela Oliveira (https://twitter.com/izzorizzo)! Isabela is here to tell us about a Kickstarter she launched this week with her co-editor, Jed Sabin (https://twitter.com/ohshitcircuit). It Gets Even Better: Stories of Queer Possibility will feature stories of near-future sociopolitical or technological change, far-future imaginings of new societies, and other stories of queer joy. Listen to hear Isabela talk about how the collection came to be, help us understand the genre of speculative fiction, and her quarantine obsession with plants.
