Episode 315: Running on Short Notice and Time, Gaming Perspectives with Saul and Jolene

Saul is slowly recovering from heart valve surgery but Jolene and Saul are back to recording episodes. This episode comes from a Reddit post about a GM that needs to run a game with no prep for 1st time players with only a 2 hour window. Though many answers were the names of games that people suggested Saul took a different angle. Saul was thinking what the GM had to think about the game they decided to run. From the system, to the adventure, to the GM's comfort in running the game. Also there was what are the expectations of the players. Where and how did they get interested? Do they know that there are more RPGs than just D&D? Saul and Jolene discuss these ideas for this episode. Thank you all for Listening Web Art by Jim Foster Episode Art by Michael Shean-Jones
