Holy howdy dear Play-Greaterians and other denizens of Podcast Land, we here at the Play Greater Podcast are back with another episode! We sure missed you last week, and we cannot wait to get into this latest episode with you! (Cause, as you surely know, anytime any one of you listens to an episode of the podcast, we are actually there listening with you too… Them’s the rules!)
Listen as one of your hosts Christopher and two of your hosts Paul go slightly overboard with slightly overwrought bits artisanally crafted to be nonsensical without their visual components. In other words, we’re back, and we’re right on track for another typical episode! Hope you enjoy!

Can confirm, your hosts and their made-for-any-medium-but-radio bits are doofus-canoes. (It’s a technical podcasting industry term.)

Howdy hey, denizens of podcast land! We here at the Play Greater Podcast are coming at you with a bit of a truncated episode this month. (I know… we are sad about it too. Hopefully, it’ll only be a one-off, so that we’re back with regular-length programming next month!)
Listen as one of your hosts Christopher and two of your hosts Paul wax on and wax off about a handful of topics, included but not limited to: health, new employees, Defender’s of the Realm playtesting, tiks and/or toks, spirits and their requisite islands, and a compiled list of other topics!
We hope you enjoy this month’s different episode, and we literally cannot wait to chat more again next month!

Hear, as your hosts proceed to pratfall into a chronometrical convention corrigendum. Marvel, as your hosts use intense and intentional grammatical goofery in the face of calendar clarity.

Howdy, howdy, and another howdy! Welcome one and all to this month's rendition of the Play Greater Podcasts. There’s one of your hosts Christopher, and there’s even two of your hosts Paul. Who could have guessed?! Who WOULD have guessed?! Who, in fact, might have guessed?! (Spoilers again: Probably you!)
Listen as your hosts begin with some B+ banter (getting higher marks from these shownotes than they anticipated) before jumping into some more serious topics.
On that note…
Content Warning: There is a tonally heavier segment dealing with serious world news which starts at 0:17:38. If you’d like to jump past this heavier segment and stick to the lighter segments full of jokes, skip to 0:32:25.
Jumping back into jokes, listen to riveting discussions of games and how to play them greater. Learn about the original hipsters of legacy components. And, hear yet another obligatory plug for the RPG Burning Wheel. (It's seriously that good!)
But, before we go any further, we must pause to ponder… Christopher climbed the Swiss Alps. It was upon these mountains that he recognized a righteous recommendation for all of you.
Christopher’s Righteous Recommendation: Watch “For All Mankind” on Apple TV (mistakenly referred to as being on HBO MAX on the air, due to Christopher misremembering which streaming service it was on).
If you have some righteous recommendations, radical reactions, or reasonable responses for these ribald rapscallions. Send us a letter about it by following this artisanal hyperlink!
And, remember…
Don’t jumpscare Jed!
