Hey since a Series Finale is on the horizon, what do you all think that should look like? We're thinking something like one last Lightning Round, although I don't have a theme in mind for it. We're open to ideas! I'd hate to just peace out with after Silver Screen Summer!

This was so much fun! If you ever want to generate a random character for Arium, we have a free app for that on AriumRPG.com

I had a chance to listen to this finally, and: 1. The episode is super well edited. 2. Joel and Avalon are fantastic hosts. 3. It's probably the best podcast intro to Arium. Ever.

First episode of the spring is here! This time we made a little more than just a cat, @adepticarus.com walked us through making an entire WORLD to put the cat in! Enjoy! badgertrove.com/2026/03/04/9...

This was super fun!! Arium (our worldbuilding rpg) is perfect for making a cat character, it turns out 🐈🐈‍⬛😻

Spring is here, and the first TTRPG cats of the spring are coming to you soon! One's coming this week, in fact! Get ready!

Ya'll should listen to this, #ttrpg! I'm having a great time hearing these guys go over just *their* rules for making a cat, I haven't even got to where they pick through the game and the energy is just everything!

Good morning, cat character lovers! We've got a new episode for you! This one is about Tide Breaker by @fallonmyblade.bsky.social! We made a cat who plays the piano! And does other cool stuff! badgertrove.com/2026/02/18/9...

Hello, everyone! It's February! Home of Valentine's Day and Black History Month! Somehow in the show's entire run, we've never celebrated either, so this year, we're trying to do both!

And it's back to our regularly-scheduled programming, for now! This time on the Literal Cat Podcast, we take a look at Brindlewood Bay by @gauntletrpg.bsky.social! And by the way, in case we didn't mention it, this cat is bisexual! badgertrove.com/2026/01/21/8...

www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tCG... And behold... the other announcement. It's true. We WILL be ending the show at the end of the summer.

Hello, everyone! Happy new year! Avalon and I are getting back on track now, but this IS another one-episode month. And that episode is about Brindlewood Bay by @gauntletrpg.bsky.social! That's right! We made an old lady cat to solve your mysteries! Also keep reading for announcements ⬇️

15 days left to help us decide the theme for Summer 2026! Patrons, if you see this, don't forget to use your votes! Non-patrons, you can also vote in this one for a one-time fee of $3 if you'd like! www.patreon.com/posts/2026-s...

Is now a good time to remind people that, to the best of my ability, I maintain a list of people who have appeared on the show for you to follow here? go.bsky.app/6J4bnf3

@literalcatpod.bsky.social Forklift-certified cat spotted in my local coffee shop’s holiday display.

Hello again, everyone! It's time for more LiteralCatPod! In the only episode we had time to make for December, we took a look at Son of Oak's new TTRPG, Legend in the Mist! Hope you like it! I know I did!

Unfortunately we have to start December on a sad note. We're gonna be missing a couple of episodes due to holiday-related scheduling conflicts. December and January will both only have one episode. And that one this month is on Legend in the Mist by Son of Oak!

I know it's 2 days late at this point but oh well! Action Fiction Autumn has ended! This is the finale! Dicey Tales, the Pulp Fiction RPG by Dicey Tales Productions! Featuring a listener-submitted cat. We turned her into a Pirate Queen!

Hey! Away from my computer until tomorrow so I can't make the post with the graphic until then but there IS A new Literal Cat Episode out, it IS good, and it IS the finale of Action Fiction Autumn. Enjoy. badgertrove.com/2025/11/26/8...

It may be the second-to-last episode of Action Fiction Autumn, but we're not slowing down! Sean Walsh (who originally showed us Flabbergasted) has returned to show us Spirit of 77! This might shock you, but we put a cat in it! badgertrove.com/2025/11/12/8...

Well, cat people, we've done it again! We've made it to the end of another themed season! Hope you've enjoyed all the action! There are two episodes left before it's all over, though!

I'm currently listening to the Straight to VHS episode and loving it. A perfect match for Literal Cat Pod!

Hey guys, do you know Adventures of Tintin? or similar French/Belgian comics from the 60's? Did you know that Helmgast made a TTRPG for that called The Troubleshooters? It's true! We put a Canadian Cat Burglar That's Actually A Cat in it! badgertrove.com/2025/10/29/8...

Good Action Fiction Afternoon, my fellow Playable Cat Enjoyers! We have a new episode today about Outgunned, an RPG by Two Little Mice. Helping us through the system today was @thirdfloorwars.bsky.social! Hope you all enjoy this one!

On @literalcatpod.bsky.social we do a deep dive into the character creation process with a hilarious result (that I still would love to see someone play)

Spooky Month? What's that? It's Month 2 of Action Fiction Autumn around here! Need proof? Look at this new episode! It's about the RPG Straight To VHS by @lostcatgames.bsky.social!

What's up, cool cats? Action Fiction Autumn is moving into its second month, and this October, we have 3 episodes for you!

Hey, guys! Hope you're ready for more action, because we've got the premise for an entire low-budget action movie franchise that we just need some bored Australian film student to take over! Listen to us make a cat in @therpgacademy.bsky.social's Action 12 Cinema! badgertrove.com/2025/09/17/8...

Today is my friend Sean's birthday and to celebrate I'd like to highlight the episode in which he made a cat in Flabbergasted with the charming Literal Cat Pod!

Action Fiction Autumn has begun! To start off the season, we brought on @velimini.bsky.social, who gave us an early look at Panic at the Dojo, second edition! It'll be out soon, but you can hear from us what character creation will kinda look like! badgertrove.com/2025/09/03/8...

Is character creation actual play? Hard to play without a character, so I’d say yes! Plus there's no way I'd miss a chance to share this episode from the wonderfully absurd @literalcatpod.bsky.social, where we create a cat possessed by the living embodiment of rumors and gossip.

And what would our seasonal theme be without its custom episode thumbnail? Enjoy!

Whats up, my cat people! It's time for Action Fiction Autumn! Hope you're ready for a season full of crazy stunt cats and martial artist cats! Here's how the first month is gonna go:

Hey, we're over 3 years in at this point. What are some games you've SHOCKED we haven't done yet? Or would be shocked if we hadn't?

Good morning, cat people! Hey, it's still a literal cat if it was orphaned and raised by feral raccoons, right? Because that's what @aliteralraccoonvt.vvixens.com helped us make. Meet the world's smallest Pathfinder barbarian, Stump! badgertrove.com/2025/08/20/8...

Apologies - I made the same mistake scheduling this episode that I made scheduling the last one! This should be the last one affected, as nothing else is uploaded yet. Episode is available now ANYWAY! It's the one you've all been asking for, we made a cat in Ironsworn by @shawntomkin.bsky.social!

Our guest for this month has been in need of a new computer for a while, after her old one started failing her! She is a decent streamer and Actual-Player, as well as one of the best VRoid artists I know of. She needs some help to get back to it at full capacity!

I apologize - I meant Badger Pawn. The poll is available to all paid members!

Ok so it may be uhhh a bit early in the morning for this, but I can't think of a time I'd be able to do it tomorrow, so, welcome to August, everyone! We have some heavily requested episodes coming at you this month!

In honor of being featured on @literalcatpod.bsky.social podcast today, I present ASTRO ANIMALS. Now you can officially make a cat in INSTANT STARSHIP!

Hey all, just wanted to mention this is still active. Would like to get back to streaming and stuff, specially with the whole job bs thing for a lil bit of a help while I'm in between jobs. If you can help pls do #wishlist #vtuber #vsky throne.com/acupofayl/it...

a cool thing all of us who get humble bundle emails can do: shit right in their email marketing metrics by opening this e-mail and clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom. email marketers see how many unsubscribes they get from specific emails. make this a problem for them :)

Hello, everyone! Sorry for the delay! Anyway, as this month ends and we begin our fourth year as a show, let's celebrate with some RPGs that wouldn't make the cut for a full episode! (List of featured games included below ⬇️) badgertrove.com/2025/07/23/7...

Also apparently forgot to upload it to Patreon. My bad.

Hey, apologies to everyone about Episode 78! It'll be out in an hour or so. It's done, I just scheduled it wrong.
