Thank you!

I haven’t, and I’ve just searched for it and drawn a blank. Do you know where I can listen?

A photograph of a toddler in a cozy living room, shot from behind. He’s holding a bottle to his mouth and looking in the direction of a tv with the start screen for the Pixar short β€œLava” on it. He’s wearing dinosaur pyjamas and appears to be about one year old.

Bedtime routine - bottle of milk and watch Lava on repeat until ready for bed. This boy knows what he likes!

A young child’s drawings. There are pink and blue pen marks making scribbles at the top of the page, a large pink line in the shape of a circle around the outside and a large coloured in pink potato shape in the centre.

My daughter came in from nursery and gave me a picture she made me. She says it’s a pink potato. I’m honoured, if a little confused.

After the wild storms all weekend, a glorious autumn day for our annual trip to the pumpkin patch.

I wish I’d done a relisten to The Lovecraft Investigations before starting the new series because they reference past stuff and it’s hard to keep track of everything when it’s been ages since I last listened.

I can definitely see the appeal!

I’m the opposite; I’m a huge fan of everything Jason Cordova is putting out and knew they were developing this from Patreon updates but I’m totally clueless about the Silt Verses IP. I’ll need to give it a look.

Finished The Lovecraft Investigations, excellent as always. Then I started looking for similarly creepy podcasts and I’ve started the Magnus Archives. Why did I sleep on this for so long, it’s fantastic!

I’m looking forward to this campaign launching to find out more about the book because the advertising campaign over the last few weeks has definitely grabbed my interest.

I’m only two episodes in to the new season of The Lovecraft Investigations so far and I can already confirm this is as good as previous seasons. The sound editing is incredible, it’s as creepy as ever, and I’ve already had one moment of all over chills and goosebumps.

Six hours until part two of our Halloween game of Call of Cthulhu. What’s been happening to all of the people disappearing around town and who’s behind the creepy broadcast intrusions on the local tv? Will our investigators make it home? You still have time to catch up on part 1 before 11am Pacific!

@evaserrate.bsky.social out of nowhere today I remembered you pulling the big reporters mic from offscreen and delivering your news report and I couldn’t stop laughing. I was trying to maintain creepy vibes throughout that game but you lot had me laughing too much πŸ˜‚πŸ€

I’ve woken up this morning still buzzing after a fantastic Call of Cthulhu game last night, a prerecord for @theexquisitecorpse.bsky.social charity Halloween event. So many great character moments and so many great lines. I think everyone has a new fear of doors. Ep1 available now and ep2 saturday!

Can’t wait for this. If you like Lovecraftian storytelling and haven’t listened to this, you have to! It’s so good!

A photograph of a toy cake stand with various β€œcakes” moulded out of Play Doh displayed on it. The cake stand sits in front of two posters displayed on a GM’s screen. One is out of focus and appears to be advertising a charity ball with a Miley Cyrus Wrecking Ball illustration. The other is advertising the Great Brindlewood Bay Bake Off.

A highlight this year was running Brindlewood Bay scenario the Great Brindlewood Bay Bake Off at Tabletop Scotland and committing to the theme with cake for my players and a showstopper round where they had to make a cake out of Play Doh.

I love playing new systems and learning new tools and tricks to take with me into other games, and I love teaching people new games. A highlight last year was running a mini D&D campaign for some local kids at a games club for their first ever tabletop RPG experience. (4/?)

At Tabletop Scotland this year I tried to expand my indie RPG horizons and picked up some fantastic games that I’ll hopefully get to play soon but I have three young kids, so sometimes my hobby is collecting games rather than playing games! (3/?)

I started in #TTRPGs with 5e back in 2017 and started exploring other systems in the last couple of years. I love Call of Cthulhu, Brindlewood Bay and Alien RPG (check out the phenomenal @girlsrunworlds.bsky.social series if you haven’t already, it’s fantastic). (2/?)

Hi! I’m Gilly. I play Call of Cthulhu every week on the Stars Are Right podcast and I’m currently halfway through running a creepy two shot on @theexquisitecorpse.bsky.social Twitch channel, that includes some very cool video handouts. Catch up before part two this Saturday! (1/?)
