Lots of Twilight Imperium love right here. It's hard to convince new players to commit (4-6 hours is what you tell 'em, but really its more like 8 -10) but once you do everyone has a grand old time. Its the only game I can lose badly at and still come away thinking I have done something truly memorable and unique.

Improv4humans is an odd one. Probably the most inconsistent comedy podcast out there. When it is good, it is miles better than anything else. But when it is bad?  Hoo boy.

Thanks for the heads up @GhaleonQ:disqus .  YLNT has dropped off my radar, but it remains one of the few re-listenable podcasts that I know of. Am really looking forward to diving back in to the new stuff.

Most of the first book is set in Rome and is about the deep history of human societies and their development. The series (called Destiny's Children) then expands outwards, upwards…

To be fair, the fact that the Gwyneth character was not taken into crazier directions is probably more down to the fact that Amy Phillips was trying to play off Scot Aukerman (an anti-improviser from the "no-maybe" school) and Andy Kindler (from the "no-look at me!" school)

"I don't know that he's someone who is seeking fame or an entertainment career". Actually @avclub-09c78e5e092faab26c371b2c3f13f514:disqus , far from seeking fame, Jason usually hangs up as soon as he is done, or when Tom goes on too much about how great he (Jason) is.  And as for the entertainment career: from what I…
