Join us in the Break Room between Dissections and Consultations where we casually chat about what we're up to while we're off-shift at the H.West Memorial Mortuary and Laboratories, and welcome our new full-time Reanimator Holly! Now with remastered audio!

These Break Room discussions are meant to be very casual, and a slight break from our ususal TTRPG-related content so that we can seem more human in order to better blend in among the populace... We originally recorded this session in early January shortly after New Years, but alas release schedules got the better of us, so our resolutions may be slightly out of date. We hope you enjoy our chat and movie/book recommendations!

In this episode, we consult on a serious case of analyzing scenario structure, in which we share our personal thoughts on recognizing it while reading, and tips for how to use it to your advantage, or tweak some aspects of a given scenario to better suit your needs. Now with remastered audio!

Consultations are more free-form topic discussions based on our own GM experiences, preferences, and gaming philosophies. We hope some of this gibbering madness can be helpful to other GMs dealing with, or considering using, these issues at their table (or at least add new and exciting chattering voices inside listener's heads).
