Episode 51: When A Hero Comes Home 

Episode 52: Bully Pulpit Games    

Self Critical Hits
Episode 22: What’s My Motivation, Denzel?
A pleasantly diverting discussion on the topic of motivation at the roleplaying table: why we do the things we do in game, and what we might learn from their doing. It all gets a bit navel-gaze-y, really (but entertainingly so!).

Some recommendation’s from this August’s august Self-Critical Hits company precede the central agenda item, along with a listing of games that Ms. Brewster encountered at Go Play NW, several minutes of James being tormented and planes flying over, and a surprise appearance by an Academy Award winner (or two!).
