Haha we're in the news now.

It's funny, but like there's a kernel of useful advice in that shit discourse thing, it's just presented as needless vitriol and ivory tower fartsniffery because that's what gets the eyes.

I'm not a game designer. Sorry I don't make the rules.

She call me Unca the way I Scooge.

One of the big names we hadn't quite hit yet! systemmasterypodcast.com/2025/06/11/s...

Goodman Games right now: "I know I start to feel like I made the right moral call right around my fifth time issuing a public statement about the same thing."

You think cooler scientologists shorten thetans to "theets"? All just blasting theets on weekends with the brahs?

I have been waiting for this for forever (not the old nGage game, a Palladium crowdfund that we can take bets on how it inevitably collapses)! www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...

We should still get to publish that Duckman RPG though. That's a nostalgic mid-90s IP, totally different.

Remember how much we enjoyed Spectaculars? Well the author is kickstarting a cyberpunk thing so you know we're on board, and honestly you should be too. www.kickstarter.com/projects/scr...

We've monetized our weirdness for you all!

Goodman Games is so disgusted about revelations that they were working with a full-throated bigot that they have no choice but to keep working with him and say "Our children were hurt by this" about it. Gotta republish some old-ass book no one cares about though! Vital apparently!

Hi I'm really sorry our current episode sounds like crap, the raw file somehow saved at a pathetic 8k bitrate, which I set higher than that a long time ago so I'd never have to think about it, so I have no idea why it was briefly set to some Tiger Electronics 1993-ass sludge mix.

Not to get political since it's not our wheelhouse but if people wanted us to actually make the games we make up we'd need to be able to print them somewhere, on something, and pay a fair price to presumably other nations in order to do so. So when commerce is no longer a silly thing to suggest.

Hey hey, this is our 300th episode! Heck yeah buddy! systemmasterypodcast.com/2025/04/16/s...

Haha when we started System Mastery we were all "We'll be perfect for this, we know every weird old game, like Rifts and Marvel Superheroes Roleplaying! Real forgotten crazy ones! Surely there is a bottom to this barrel!"

The Movie Mastery is gonna be pretty late because of scheduling but that's why I saved this sweet little morsel until now

Saw Reel Big Phish last night. They said "pick it up pick it up" for eight straight minutes. One of the trumpet players asphyxiated and died and they just sent in another one.

Hey D&D, what's a highly generative designer? D&D? Hey D&D! Hey! What's generative mean in this context? Hey yeah hi. Just one question for D&D here.

Scientists have finally synthesized an unstable isotope of Blink 183.

Is there any machine at the gym more camped by social scrollers than the pectoral fly? I have yet to encounter one and I'm not sure why. Maybe the bench is super comfy?

Ever wonder what's in those adult RPGs for couples that advertise rather heavily on Facebook? Wonder no more my friends! systemmasterypodcast.com/2025/02/19/s...

Gross, Michelle.

Wait so you were only willing to actually say the name of one (1) indy game that's doing fine, while actually spending the bulk of the article lamenting that we're not getting ENOUGH WOTC slop this year?

What're the dragon age categories again? It's Barely Legal, Legal, Mature, and ADILF, right?

Super special bonus content this week folks, as we're joined by @oneshotrpg.bsky.social to make our official characters for the AP universe of his and Drew's new RPG, Cosmic Century Knights! Yes, that's right, these are bonus content characters you'll actually see again!

All I want for Christmas is for people to have bought other people copies of my books for Christmas.

What's your favorite weird ass thing that seems to happen constantly but only in Christmas movies? Mine is getting the tree at like 4pm on the 24th.

Man I hope Tiny Tim makes it out of this one. Gonzo, what's the verdict?
