I’ve had some ideas to expand the podcast since before we recorded the first episode. One of my first ideas (and one of the biggest suggestions we’ve gotten from listeners) is actual play podcasts. Well, Ross talked about his Shadowrun 4th Edition character Raef on a previous episode, a pixie […]

Disclaimer Now, before anyone comments, I would like to point out that in Japan, the word “sushi” refers to the rice, not the fish. So I’m going to focus on how to prepare the rice for sushi. I also live in rural Southeast Texas, so let me tell you how […]
Since we talked about worldbuilding on the last episode before the Awards, I thought I might go into some more detail about the subject. If you listened to the episode, a lot of this will sound familiar because, well, it’s what we talked about on the show. However, I thought […]
Back when 3rd Edition launched, I was the first person in my area to run a game in the new system. Also, this campaign represented my first attempt at running a long-term game as pretty much every other campaign I’d ever run lasted a month at most before we got […]
Both Ross and I would like to wish everyone Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Joyous Kwanza, Superb Saturnalia, or any other holiday you celebrate during this solstice season!
Apparently, eating baked ham with black eyed peas and cabbage on New Years is a Southern thing. I never knew that until very recently. However, regardless of the holiday, ham is a great way to feed a lot of people cheap. You can usually get a real ham for between $.99 […]
The best fried chicken is very simple to make, but like all simple recipes, the details matter. First thing you want to do is go get a whole chicken and cut it up yourself. I would love to explain how to do that, but it really takes some practice and […]
I’m half Cajun from both sides of my family – my mother and my father both are half Cajun. I can trace my paternal line all the way from my grandfather in Lake Charles, Louisiana, to several generations in Louisiana then back to Canada and finally France in the 1400s, […]
I want to try something new around here. I pride myself on being a graduate of the Good Eats Culinary Academy (if you don’t get the joke, I mean I’ve seen every episode of Good Eatsby Alton Brown multiple times each) and a fairly decent cook, so I thought I’d […]
If you listened to the most recent Gamer’s Tavern episode, you might have noticed that I seemed to be the Negative Nancy for Kickstarted games. I also probably came off as a Luddite, but my love for technology is a subject for another blog. I know I sounded down on […]
Okay, there’s been some confusion based on the title of the podcast and the website not matching, so after some research and a bit of work, we’re cleaning house. Welcome officially to the Gamer’s Tavern Podcast!! In addition, I’m also going to step back a bit in my on-air role […]
I wasn’t just adding color to the podcast to get into that fantasy tavern feel when I said I was drinking mulled wine on Episode 3. I started making it last winter and I’m in love with it. It’s also incredibly easy to make and a great way to get […]
