| Superhero Movies, Self-Publishing, and Side Quest - With Zac Goins | 26 juil. 2026 | 01:10:49 | |
Two years' worth of inventory, gone in six months. A sixty-thousand-dollar zine that will never happen again. A hundred bucks of black-and-white flyers, hand-folded on a kitchen table, that might be the best business card in the hall.Zac Goins joins me to argue about scale. He's running a big Limithron Kickstarter and shepherding SideQuest — a pile of tiny projects from a dozen creators — at the same time, and the whiplash gave him something to say. We get into where the real margins live, why complexity is the tax you pay for going big, and what my years at Caterpillar taught me about print runs: you are going to be wrong, and the only question is which direction.We also talk about the ticking clock that starts the moment your Kickstarter funds, why a group of writers demands you know your page count before you know your words, and the two SideQuest projects Zac thinks deserve your attention.If you've ever wondered whether your next project should be a zine or a doorstop, this is the conversation that answers it honestly.https://updates.kickstarter.com/meet-sidequest-a-community-effort-to-bring-tabletop-crowdfunding-back-to-basics/ | |||
| Interview with Frank Tedeshi.... | 05 juil. 2026 | 01:29:53 | |
Frank Tedeschi of Deadbox Games joins the show to talk Raptor Ruckus, the Mörk Borg-powered dinosaur survival-horror RPG he co-designs — including the featherless-dinosaur controversy and the "tenacity" system built to make predators behave like real predators. Then it's the Deadbox Games origin story (hand-sewn Ale Stone boards, the leap into risograph printing with Bleak Sprout), and a deep dive into Dark Mythos — bringing genuine Lovecraftian dread into a fantasy setting where victory still costs you something. | |||
| Interview With Matt Gullett | 18 juin 2026 | 00:54:51 | |
Matt Gullett has been building Eldritch Wastelands for ten years, and he’s finally letting the world in. An arcane apocalypse has torn a hole in reality, civilization has collapsed, and a hundred years later, psychopathic warlords and voodoo mamas rule the ruins of the Weird South. It’s Gamma World’s DNA filtered through Thundarr the Barbarian and seasoned with a Southern drawl — and it runs on ShadowDark. In this episode, Matt talks about why he ditched Savage Worlds mid-project, how a friend’s off-the-cuff recommendation changed everything, and why the stripped-down ShadowDark engine finally let his world breathe the way it always should have. He covers his Kickstarter’s blazing fast funding, his long-game vision for quarterly zines and new content, and why running games at Texas conventions has been his single best marketing tool. Along the way we get into the elegance of purpose-built game systems versus universal ones, the OSR community’s genuine warmth, RPGs as a tool for social development — Matt credits the hobby with curing a childhood stutter severe enough to make ordering ketchup at McDonald’s a crisis — and the stories behind some of the hobby’s most generous people. This one is for anybody who wants their apocalypse with a drawl. | |||

| Being Yourself for a Living - With Zac Goins and Brian Colin | 12 sept. 2025 | 01:06:10 | |
Getting older changes my perspective on things, especially when it comes to employment. I am not offering any life-coaching advice but am leading a discussion with Zac and Brian on the subject of vocation as it relates to the core of who we are and what we want out of life.

Who doesn’t love the Jurassic Park movie?

| Are There Easy Ways to Market a Kickstarter Project? - With Zac Goins | 21 avr. 2025 | 01:02:22 | |
Zac Goins joins me to discuss ways of marking one’s Kickstarter projects. Producing content and getting print is hard enough, but adding in the marketing side can be daunting. I am not great a promoting my work, so this was an opportunity to brainstorm, and tease out ways one can bring in backers and get them to pledge early. Take everything we say with a grain of salt.

This is a medieval fantasy game in which characters are gangsters fighting for their rightful piece of the pie. Sisters and brothers, it is time to get rambling. ——————————————————————————————— Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/RPG_Ramblings ———————————————————————————————— ———————————————————————————————— Jeff Jones Twitter: @I_Am_Jeffrey Website: rpgramblings.com DriveThru: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Jeffrey%20A%20Jones | |||

| E137. “OSE, 5e and Adventure Design Philosophies" with Zac Goins [Video] | 15 déc. 2023 | 01:37:30 | |
3.36 Today, Zac Goins of World of Game Design joins me. He is a mucky- muck for that company (which means I forgot his job title.) Zac has a long history with writing and Kickstarting RPG products. He now runs organized pay for WoGD at more convention than seems humanly possible. We have a four act structure for this podcast, check the Zoom summary in the show notes if you are inclined. Deadines are pressing on me. Sisters and brothers, it is time to get rambling. ———————————————————————————————— Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/RPG_Ramblings ———————————————————————————————— ———————————————————————————————— Jeff Jones Twitter: @I_Am_Jeffrey Itch.io: https://jeffrey-a-jones.itch.io DriveThru: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Jeffrey%20A%20Jones ============= Zoom Summary ============= Quick recap Jeff and Zac had a wide-ranging discussion about various topics. They touched upon an AI feature that could summarize their discussions, the influence of the holiday season on workplace motivation, and the differences between Fifth Edition and Old School Essentials in role-playing games. They also discussed the complexities of designing balanced monsters for high-level play in a game, the mechanics of a tactical game, the evolution of a game, project management, and diversifying their sales channels. They also reflected on a recent gaming event, emphasizing the evolving inclusivity and acceptance in the gaming community. Summary Jeff and Zac discussed an AI feature that could summarize their discussions. They also touched upon running con adventures, the topic of GA 4, and a comparison between D&D and OSE. The influence of the holiday season on workplace motivation was discussed, with Jeff sharing an anecdote about an unfamiliarity with American holidays. Jeff then shifted the conversation to their projects. A discussion about the differences between Fifth Edition and Old School Essentials (OSE) in role-playing games ensued, with Jeff noting the increased importance of killing monsters when treasure types are removed, and Zac emphasizing the shift of focus towards story milestones. The challenges of converting games from one system to another were also discussed. OSE and 5E - Radically Different Design sensibilities Designing Balanced Monsters for High-Level Play Zac and Jeff had a detailed discussion about the complexity of designing balanced monsters for high-level play in a game. They highlighted the challenge of designing monsters that could neutralize half the party members without making them too powerful. They also discussed the intricacies of running a creature, the various types of damage dealt, and the difficulties in translating these from one game system to another. The conversation also touched on the impact of game design and terminology on the player experience and the difficulty of crafting epic stories during gameplay. They ended the discussion with a debate on the nature of tactical games and the potential compromise to the tactical experience if a character starts as a hero. Tactical Game Mechanics and D20 System Discussion Zac and Jeff engaged in a detailed conversation about the mechanics of a tactical game, specifically focusing on the impact of damage and the potential for players to deal damage even when missing their target. They also discussed the potential frustrations players can experience when using the D20 system. Zac expressed skepticism about a proposed solution to these issues, while Jeff was interested in exploring alternatives. They also touched on the potential of Matt Colville's game, despite not being keen on playing it themselves. The discussion concluded on the benefits of different celebrity entertainers in the space shifting from D&D to other systems, as it opens up the audience to experience other ways of addressing game play issues. | |||
