The RPG Academy: DETENTION- LIVE

The RPG Academy

Here you will find our newest show feature. Detention episodes feature special guests from the RPG Academy Network and include the segments Extra Curricular, Used Books, and Class Review. These episodes are a little more rough around the edges, with less editing to reflect a more conversational tone. They also include more of the tangents, bad jokes, and adult language that we tend to use when we’re hanging out and having fun. We stream these live every week on Wednesday and this is the audio only version.

https://therpgacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Detention-Ep-5.mp3 Hello students! Welcome to a new bonus feature on The RPG Academy, Detention! We were so happy to hear good feedback about this bonus content that we decided to make more! In this episode, Caleb and Scott are joined by special guest Christopher from the Sharkbone podcast! As usual, these episodes are a little more rough around the edges, with less editing to reflect a more conversational tone. They also include more of the tangents, bad jokes, and adult language that we tend to use when we're hanging out and having fun. In Extra Curricular, Christopher shares some personal tragedy and talks about moving to Ohio. Bummer. But he redeems himself by not knowing geography. Scott brings up early preparations for AcadeCon and we talk about story structure in games. The pesky ghost of Jim McClure is mentioned but not summoned. Caleb starts a tangent about cartoons (which Christopher takes back a decade) and then digs into binging Limitless on Netflix. In Dead Campaigns, Christopher shares a campaign that did not survive the first play session. We also discuss ways to handle the situation when a player makes a challenging choice during character generation. And in Class Review, we move on from the four stereotypical classes and discuss the Warlock. We look at the class from its 3.5 roots to its current version in 5E and get into the flavor and mechanics that it delivers to players. We get super nerdy here, and a lot of math comes up. If you want to see Christopher flex his math skill, check out what he wrote about warlocks here. And we have a difficult time finding warlocks in other games, but we do find their theme or flavor. -Professor Crunch- As always, thanks for listening. Please let us know if you have any suggestions or requests for future episodes. We hope you enjoy. Comments and Feedback are always welcome.

https://therpgacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Detention-Ep-9.mp3 Hello Academaniacs! Welcome to a new bonus feature on The RPG Academy, Detention! We were so happy to hear good feedback about this bonus content that we decided to make more! In this episode, Caleb and Scott are joined by special guest Quinn from Swallows of the South. As usual, these episodes are a little more rough around the edges, with less editing to reflect a more conversational tone. They also include more of the tangents, bad jokes, and adult language that we tend to use when we're hanging out and having fun. Detention is sponsored by Battle Bards! Be sure to check out their newest albums and don't forget to use our exclusive coupon code when making a purchase. Extra Curricular starts with debating how Caleb says things. Scott shares his travel experiences and we come up with a new take on the classic dystopian future trope. Quinn talks about school and karaoke and we get onto a target about cosplay. Caleb talks about The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret. In Used Books, Caleb shares the home-brew world of Sanctuary and the game that didn't get past session zero. This opens the discussion to encounter balance, world building, and ways to get players more excited about and invested in session zero. We also talk about using session zero type questions to warm up before a game session and serve as a reminder or primer for important details. And in Class Review, we discuss the Sorcerer. Caleb has a very different opinion than the rest of the group. This leads to a deep discussion about what we like and don't like about the class and what makes it interesting. -Professor Crunch- As always, thanks for listening.
