Great show, guys! I always learn something new in each episode. Someday I'd like to hear an AP of your sessions, it really sounds like you get down to the nitty gritty of character growth and development. I know for sure I'd never describe any of my campaigns/sessions as "Shakespearean." The best I can hope for is prolly "Koontzian"

On the topic of 3:16, if anyone's interested in seeing/hearing more about that game, my podcast The Walking Eye just completed it's play/review/interview (hereby given the TLA PRI) of 3:16.

It's 3 sessions of play (the last two are particularly good) a 45 minute review, and a 1 hour interview with Gregor, which we had a lot of fun with.

Cool! Thanks for sharing the link, Kevin.

Long time listener, first time poster...

Kevin thanks for the linkage.  After hearing about 3:16 on the podcasts, I had to buy the PDF for this one.  Box Ninja can chalk me up as one satisfied customer. 

I always look forward to the next Voice of the Revolution podcast and it looks like I need to check out The Walking Eye as well.
