Nerdcognito - Episode 186: TTRPG How-to with a New Group; Can We Love Lovcraftesque?

You have a new table of players, how do YOU handle starting from scratch with all new personalities?  The boys discuss this scenario, which of course spirals to include talk of safety tools, session zero, and other modern insanity.  Then, the news never ends as the gang goes deep into a couple of stories, ending with RD wanting to love "Lovecraftesque," but uncertain about fully buying in because of open activism on behalf of the creators.

The News:

Play an Anthropromorphic Duck?  Hard Pass.
WotC Selling Politics, but NOT Selling Books
Xenomorphs Come to Earth in new Alien Series
Metal Gear Solid -- The Board Game!!!
