Hex Talk #7 – Generating Player Interest

“Just sit right back and you’ll hear a cast, a pod ’bout a hex or two. It’s three old nerdy white guys, hex-talking right to you.” Sing that to the theme of Gilligan’s Island. Not sure why, since we reference the Love Boat theme in this episode. Whatever. Anyways, the guys are back with another irreverent episode of Hex Talk! In episode six, Jason, Eric and Jose talk about player agency and GM anxiety, and they give underpants talks on their shared-GM hex crawl setting, The Forlorn Shores. They also answer a listener question and read some comments. This is the most important thing you’ll listen to during your morning poop, probably. Thanks for listening!

Hex Talk #5 – The Return

Glad to see the podcast up and running. Once again, great advice and a great &#34;re-introductory&#34; show. 
The length is just about perfect for my daily commute.

Looking forward to seeing how the format evolves, game reports, and which guests they bring on. 

One thing to note, the hosts could be more prompt in email responses... :P

General but Focused

It’s about time Hex Talk got its own show.  The first 4 episodes, as part of the Hobbs &amp; Friends of the OSR podcast, were amazing for anyone interested in planning in or playing a hex crawl. Jason, Jose, and Eric have great on-air chemistry and I’m excited to see what they have planned for this podcast’s future.

Best Parenting Podcasts

The best podcasts about ourselves as well as the world through the lense of Science. Specific topics include things about our brain, emotions to biology, physics and more!

Right now, billions of neurons in your brain are working together to generate a conscious experience -- and not just any conscious experience, your experience of the world around you and of yourself within it. How does this happen? According to neuroscientist Anil Seth, we're all hallucinating all the time; when we agree about our hallucinations, we call it "reality." Join Seth for a delightfully disorienting talk that may leave you questioning the very nature of your existence.

Your brain hallucinates your conscious reality | Anil Seth

Using examples from vacations to colonoscopies, Nobel laureate and founder of behavioral economics Daniel Kahneman reveals how our "experiencing selves" and our "remembering selves" perceive happiness differently. This new insight has profound implications for economics, public policy -- and our own self-awareness.
