Episode 10: Radical Kindness w/ Jay Dragon

Share This Post

In this episode, Dan talks to indie RPG designer Jay Dragon from Possum Creek Games, who won an Ennie for Sleepaway and who’s most recent release Wanderhome is currently taking the world of tabletop by storm with its charming setting and very different approach to tabletop storytelling.

We discuss how Jay got into RPG’s, the queering of the tabletop space, and the magical power of itch.io. Then, we dig into Wanderhome to figure out what about it resonated so well with us during quarantine.
