Shh, we’re not really back yet… it’s still the lazy days of summer, and much needed rest and recuperation is taking place. But the slow grind of content waits for no fae, and so we are dipping our toes back into the airwaves with an episode here and episode there for the next handful of […]

As we drift into midsummer night dreams, it remains only to give an accounting of the State of the Podcast before we take a semi-hiatus for the next several weeks. There are a couple episodes planned, but otherwise we’ll see you on the airwaves again in mid-August or thereabouts. In the meantime, we’ve got some

Summer is arriving with a vengeance in the northern part of the globe, so it’s a bit odd to be going back a season… and yet, we regret it not, as we open up the pages of Rites of Spring. This supplement for Changeling: the Lost 1e is a compendium of magics and Glamour, folklore

Cantrips and oaths and Unleashings (oh my!) are all perfectly respectable kinds of magic, but what others might the fae be heir to? We’re tackling that question with another entry in the Changeling 30th Anniversary Project lineup, as the anniversary itself approaches… The book-in-progress of our discussion today is Book of Gremayre, a compendium of

The emotion espoused by the Winter Court of the Lost is sorrow, but it’s hard to feel too down about the sheer volume of material provided in their nominally associated book, Winter Masques. (Maybe we can shed a tear for the wild inconsistency in font sizes between sections?) While Autumn Nightmares was more of a

The nature of evil is a wiggly thing in all the World of Darkness games, but especially in Changeling. Who’s to say whether a rabid beastie or a diabolical Eiluned is more dastardly than the other? Surely it’s a matter of perspective. Still, among the various groups in the game, the Thallain and the Dauntain

So, we had thought, surely the supplements for Changeling: the Lost’s first edition can’t be as dense as the corebook. Surely there will be some let-up in the sheer volume of material crammed into the pages. And yet, here we are with the first book in the line, Autumn Nightmares, applying nostrums to our eyes

If you’ve been listening to our show for a while (or hanging out on our Discord!), chances are you’ve heard Josh mention Dr. Jenna Moran’s game Nobilis. In some ways adjacent to the World of Darkness and Exalted, in some ways adjacent to its own distinctively hallucinogenic blossom-laden spatial warp of hyperconsciousness, it seemed like

At long last, with this third installment, we are at last finished our readthrough of the Changeling: the Lost 1st edition corebook. Here’s hoping that when we get to 2nd edition, we can just breeze through and say “nyaaahhh, it’s mostly the same but here are things that have changed.” (Doubtful.) This week, we’re talking

Another week, another as-rapid-as-we-dare readthrough of the Changeling: the Lost 1st edition corebook. This time, we’re having a look at Chapters Three and Four. “But Pooka and Fetch,” you might say, “this was supposed to be a two-part series, not a trilogy. How could you spend just under two hours talking about two measly chapters?”
