Hey Sam:
Thanks for the Shout Out!!
I loved your description of the “Freak Show” characters you’ve had the pleasure of knowing. I also listen to Fear the Boot, and while I find a great deal of their advice on the mechanical aspects of preping and running game excellent, I also find myself frustrated when their “One True Wayist” attitude rears it’s ugly head as it did in relation to Larping and “FreakShow” Characters.
I also loved your essay on how you prepare your Campaign Gazetteers, I will most deinately be using this information and your sample when I start my next campaign.
as always an excellent Show !!!
Keep up the good work!!

We’ve gotten more feedback on the “freak show” commentary than anything else in the show’s history. I think we’re going to put together a response and “issue update” we’ll be tossing out in episode 15.
