In this episode, we delve deeper into this setting full of magic child soldiers and tachyonic geriatric lich kids, sprinkle new factions into the mix, and explore the origin—and potential end—of this seemingly-eternal war. Remember: whoever controls the Space W.H.A.L.E. controls the world.

A new prompt from patron Gluax brings us to a land of ✨magical children✨...who lack rights and are used as soldiers in a never-ending war. Fun! We start building out this setting with science (sort of), gerontocracies, ghosts, and the implications of immensely powerful mage-babies. But who's really behind this war?

This week, we conclude this ancient alt history setting by building mecha and embarking on a globetrotting adventure with some very high stakes! So come on down to Atlantisville, where your mech can have a little human sacrifice, as a treat.

In the first part of a new series, patron Cam brings us into an alternate history where mecha were sent down to the Earth in 300 BC! Join us as we reforge history courtesy of these mechs and their many implications for warfare, labor, mathematics, and yes, human sacrifice.
Correction: Macedonians (led by Alexander the Great), not Romans, conquered Tyre in 332 BC.

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!
Check out Clark on YouTube and at https://crrowenson.com !

Himbos. He-Mans. Roided-out Sailor Moons. Super nuns. In this episode, a long-time listener asks us to build a world where magic swords have mysteriously appeared with high fantasy powers, and we take things in a decidedly beefy direction.

In our conclusion to this intergalactic setting, we get downright mundane with psychonaut message boards and retired space cops. Pay no mind to the incomprehensibly large cosmic serpent in the background.

Courtesy of patron Commissar Whiskers (and a few other listeners!), we're diving into a setting where remnants of long-dead gods and progenitors are scattered throughout the universe, acting as a source of life, magic, and a whole lot of mystery. What exactly happened way back during this fantastical Big Bang? And just how massive would a weapon of mass destruction need to be in order to kill gods?

The Earth was the same...until it wasn't. This week, we're joined by guest host Ian of the Undercommon Taste podcast to tackle a listener prompt about an alternate Earth filled to the brim with magic spells and steampunk technology. An otherworldly curse coinciding with the end of World War I brings with it a slew of fantastical mutations and sociopolitical implications, so listen in to hear all of the magical and/or horrifying details!
Check out Ian on the Undercommon Taste podcast at https://undercommontaste.podbean.com and head over to their Discord server at https://discord.gg/64R7ze3fBV.

Our conclusion to this magical, demon-infested post-apocalyptic setting has us balancing grimdark-itude with lighter, '80s-movie-inspired story elements...and perhaps the most Courtney moment that's ever been Courtneyed yet on air.
