Worldbuild With Us

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.

In this episode, we begin to build out patron James V.'s setting: a planet devastated by the shattered remnants of one of its elemental moons. What powers (and dangers) do these moon shards hold? And what lies within the moons themselves?

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!

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!

It's been quite a while since we've deconstructed and reimagined fantastical creatures in a Monster Mash, so this week we're back at it with guest host C.R. Rowenson! A suspiciously convenient die roll has us exploring one of Clark's picks: the chimera, the lion-goat-snake hybrid of Greek mythology—or in broader terms, a genetically-mixed organism. Tune in to hear how we handle two very different versions of this beast!

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™?

This week, we're taking a break from listener prompts to do some good old-fashioned worldbuilding jams. Random dice rolls bring us to lands of hidden identities and noir detectives, so tune in to find out where these settings end up!

In this patron-exclusive Aphid Lounge, Daniel and Courtney are joined by their friend Jon Parsons to chat about how GMs and players can collaborate for better gaming experiences and stronger worldbuilding. We talk everything from session zeroes and social contracts to how GMs can include quiet players and how players can get away with being a crazed serial killer in a party of otherwise good characters!

Where there be dragons, there must be dragon cultists. We put our finishing touches on this now-magic-less post-apocalyptic world with monster petting zoos, beast masters, art rescuers, and the looming threat of fascism...And naturally, some refinements to our Matthew McConaughey/Christian Bale measurement systems (patent pending).
