One Shots

This week, a first-time prompt submitter asks us to build out a dangerous, magical world called Warevinet, populated by mermaids, winged humans, and boring ol' regular humans. We take inspiration from important cultural works like The Little Mermaid, The Dying Earth, Zoolander, and I Think You Should Leave to infuse this realm with petty wizards, aquatic vineyards, fashion-based magic, and so much more! Anyone got a spare skin suit?

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.

This week, forbidden teachings take root in a leadership academy run by the god of knowledge itself. Tune in to hear all about this school, its lofty goals, and its unlikely (and adorable) professors in a world otherwise encased in a dark age of false despots!

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!

This week, a complex listener prompt has us tackling water-based teleportation, which leads to weaponized beverages and a surprising amount of undead and...other things. This could have been a happy episode.
Plus: our new (but not really) segment called Help Boomer-Daniel Figure Out What Actor and/or Movie He's Talking About!

This week, another new listener has us venturing onto a post-post-apocalyptic planet that's become tidally locked, with only a narrow ring of habitable territory separating the sun-scorched side from the other half's frozen darkness. Listen in to sail the brackish sea, traverse the rust dunes, and hone your psychic efficiency...and to find out what fun new phobia Rob discovers!
P.S. Anyone know how to run an intervention for someone who refuses to sleep? Anyone? Please help.

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™?

In this episode, a listener's idea for transactional magic leads us into a realm of sacred geometry, singing spellcasters, limited literacy, and of course, a tribute to Oscar-winner Brendan Fraser, star of the 1999 classic The Mummy.

A listener tasks us with building a post-human world where sentient animals have risen up to create something new...But how can entirely different types of creatures communicate, if at all? Tune in to find out, and hear the adventures of Marvin the Rat-Warrior and his friends as they seek out lost knowledge in a fantasy post-apocalypse!
