Epsiode 24 Fiend Folio with James Holloway

Had a lot of fun on this episode getting educated by James Holloway, the Monster Man, himself!  We talk a lot about the importance of the original Monster Manual in setting the stage for these sorts of books and have an interesting debate on whether The Fiend Folio is or isn’t a big departure from what that book had set us up for back in the 1e days.  You can catch James’s podcast “Monster Man” at: https://monsterman.libsyn.com/, and you’ll want to sign up for his Patreon feed which has all sorts of great bonuses (like picking episode topics and getting access to the “Patron Deities” show) at: https://www.patreon.com/monsterman.  You can enjoy some of his published game content like the “Pamphlet of Pantheons,” and the “Magonium Mine Murders” and more here: https://james-holloway.itch.io/ or at Exalted Funeral in the US: and https://iglootree.com/ in the UK

 

You might also notice the fun little bumper sent to us by listener Banjo Destructo of the Heavy Metal RPG podcast (https://rumble.com/v1c3ux3-heavy-metal-rpg-podcast-episode-0000-dcc-rpg-and-level-0-funnels.html) who has done lots of cool bits (here’s one of my favorites: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvR1O_l03gc).  Give him a listen, the guy’s a hoot!
