Video and Podcast Channel Highlights for the Week Ending 10/22/22

It’s going to take a while for us to start hitting our stride and the format may change as we work out the kinks, but here we go!

Greyhawk Grognard - Analysis, reviews, and new material relating to the World of Greyhawk Campaign Setting, tabletop gaming, and the OSR, with occasional forays into pop culture and industry/hobby news. Weekly videos on Thursdays, a Greyhawk-themed adventure hook every Sunday, plus other videos as the mood strikes.

This week's video:

Waterborne Adventures in Greyhawk

I discuss the relative lack of published waterborne adventures in the World of Greyhawk, and the opportunities for doing so.

Tenkar’s Tavern - Gaming news, observations, punditry, and more regarding the OSR. Livestreams Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday Nights with various cohosts, including other casters on the TVN.

This Week’s Video:

Arduin - Special Note on Thieves and Thievery

Thieves should be about thieving. So why do their skills suck so badly?

BTW, I’ve spoken highly of The Dread Thingonomicon. Well, now the first 50 pages can be snagged for free as a preview. (note - affiliate link)

Joethelawyer’s Analog Mancave – Joe is an old bastard who puts out videos on D&D, both old school and new.  He’s been playing D&D since 1984.  Joe is currently wrapping up a 4 ½ year 5e campaign and is about to start up a long long very long 2e campaign.  He’s doing a series of videos on how he’s prepping for it, and the campaign is expected to launch in the next couple of months.  No, you won’t ever see these games livestreamed.  The lack of dignity and decorum in these games would shock, confuse and horrify anyone under 50. 

He sometimes does videos with his brother Mike, called the Joe and Bro Firepit Show, where they talk about the D&D games they each play and run, while sitting in his brother’s backyard around his firepit. Roscoe the dog, known as “Squirrelbane” to his enemies, sometimes visits while they yammer on.  There’s usually much alcohol and other semi-legal things consumed during these shows, so they aren’t for the faint of heart.  Often, they aren’t even coherent or comprehensible.  He does unboxings, product reviews—both new and retro, and plans on reading all the books in Gary’s Appendix N soon.  God knows he has enough books…he may as well put them to use. 

This week’s video:

I know some of you aren't happy with the direction of 5e.  One D&D isn't for everyone.  People are looking around for a new gaming experience and there's been a lot of interest in the OSR.  I'm here to help!  This video will give you a brief intro into what the OSR is, where it came from, and how to get started playing OSR games.  Enjoy!
