Cyberpunk

This week, we're joined by magic engineer and body horror aficionado Clark Rowenson for our first worldbuilding jam episode of the year! Random dice rolls direct us into genres like urban fantasy and cyberpunk, and we even break out the Monster Mash list for a little help along the way. Tune in for these three mini settings and their tales of control, vengeance, and consequence!

This week, we're joined by guest host and magic engineer Clark R. Rowenson for a summertime worldbuilding jam! We subvert some tropes and embrace others as dice rolls lead us into space western and cyberpunk territory, featuring a troublesome corporate heir and Box Tops for Immortality™. Plus: a sneak peak at what's in store for Mr. Beast videos in the ultra-dystopian future!

In our first Rob-free regular episode(!), a new listener prompt introduces a world where people have perfect memory of everything they hear, and where those memories persist after death. Courtney and Daniel are joined by guest Jon Parsons to explore this land and its implications: how has this audio-centric species evolved over time? How can they share secrets, if at all? And what's up with those creepy Trauma Warriors™?
