    Episode Two: My Podcast Host, And Immersion In The Game

    In this episode, I explain a little bit about the hosting company. I’m using for this podcast. I won’t do this kind of thing often, but because this host is very different with regard to commenting and other social media functions, I thought I should mention it. And then I discuss differences in gamemaster styles, based on a conversation I had with my wife last week.

    This episode went 10 minutes longer than I really intended mostly due to the discussion of the hosting company. This also will not be the norm. Thanks for hanging in there.
