In this episode, I chat with journalist Rowan Zeoli about tabletop roleplaying games & the exploding live group storytelling phenomeon that is Actual Play. We chat shows like Critical Role & Dimension 20, discuss the politics of roleplaying, & what journalism & nonfiction writing are for in a shifting & tricky media landscape. There, I said 'media landscape' for the first & last time in my life. Enjoy it.
If you want to check out some of Rowan's writing here's a cool article about a 2-player Actual Play ttrpg on Rascal: https://www.rascal.news/godkiller-last-hope-transplanar-interview-connie-chang-sea-thomas/
