Customer Reviews
A line to the industry insiders for Savage Worlds
Ron and Veronica make a great team. They have networked with the folks over at Pinnacle (Savage Worlds) who are frequent guests on their show. All too often in other published interviews, industry insiders asked dry questions that are from game designer to game designer. Ron and Veronica ask the questions that us players want to know. They allow people like Shane Hensley, Clint Black, Paul "Wiggy" Williams, and Sean Patrick Fannon to talk about themselves and the products they create. Which of the above listed gurus made enough money to buy a car as a male stripper? Which recent setting release was first created to be the GM’s world outside of “Keep on the Borderlands”? Listen and find out! Keep up the good work Ron and Veronica!
Had potential
Like most podcasts, this one started off with great potential. I can't get enough of boardgame reviews and discussion. Sadly, after about 10 episodes, the annoying wife decides to join the show and it becomes almost exclusively a role playing podcast. Not just a role playing podcast, but one specific to a role playing game called Savage Worlds. So unless you are interested in Savage Worlds, I'd stay away. Or, better yet, download the first 10 episodes (approximately) where the topics discussed match the description that they provide. After that, dump em. Started off as a 4 star podcast, currently 2 stars.
What a great Podcast
Ron and Veronica are wonderful. It is great to see a Husband and Wife that share this hobby. This is an informative podcast that centers around interviews with some of the greatest minds in role playing. The reoccurring "Little Black Book" is a great addition that I look forward too every episode. I can't wait for more episodes, and hope this podcast lives a long and happy existence.
