Ep 095: Dune/Root GenCon Impressions
08/13/19 • 64 min
While at GenCon, we had the opportunity to sit down with designers Bill Eberle of Dune and Patrick Leder of Root. We spoke with them about their upcoming releases and about the ways fans interact with their games. We also got to see Dune played and have been playing a fair amount of Root ourselves, and in this episode you’ll hear our first impressions on both games.

Ep 094: GenCon 2019 Live Show
THIS EPISODE OF SCPT IS RATED PG-13 FOR SUGGESTIVE CONTENT AND LANGUAGE.
We finally had our first LIVE SHOW! This was our event held at GenCon 2019, where we played the archaic Twilight Imperium RPG (which is quite bad). We were joined by fellow Portland comedian Steven Wilber and member of the RPG group Rat Queens, Jessica Lynn Verdi! This was an incredible experience that we look forward to doing more of in the future.
