Episode 221: A Deliciously Lich-y Spooky Jam
Thursday Oct 26, 2023
Thursday Oct 26, 2023
Continuing our celebration of the spookiest time of the year, we're bringing the three liches from last episode's Monster Mash into a worldbuilding jam! Random dice rolls guide us into horror subgenres like "psychological thriller" and "haunted house" (interpreted not-always-literally, of course) and we pile on heart-wrenching tragedy in addition to the spookiness. Be sure to let us know your favorite lich tale in the comments or on our Discord!

This week, we're joined by guest host and magic engineer Clark R. Rowenson for a summertime worldbuilding jam!

Episode 200: Patron-Infused Chaos Jam
Thursday Jun 01, 2023
Thursday Jun 01, 2023
Ten patron tenets. Two fast-paced worldbuilding sessions. Maximum mayhem.
We wanted to do something a little different for our 200th episode, so we asked our patrons for input, and they responded with...chaos. With only one host aware of the contents of these patron-submitted tenets, we embark on randomized rapid-fire setting creation with interesting results.
Thank you so much to all of our patrons for your continued support, and to all of our listeners for sticking with us for now literally hundreds of episodes!...Which are now LIVE ON YOUTUBE! That's right, we're on YouTube now at www.youtube.com/@worldbuildwithus so be sure to subscribe and smash that like button, if you're so inclined! Thank you all for helping us get to this point!

The Aphid Lounge Preview: Gross Jams, Now with More Placenta
Wednesday Mar 29, 2023
Wednesday Mar 29, 2023
Or, Implications: The Episode. Patron Gluax requested a no-holds-barred gross episode, and Rob, Courtney, and Clark are all too happy to deliver in this extra-long, extra-juicy patron-exclusive Aphid Lounge! We discuss grossness and horror of all varieties and why we're drawn to them, then partake in a deeply unpleasant placenta- and prion-riddled duo of worldbuilding jams, and even talk about perhaps the most terrifying topic of all: sex education in the United States.
