Welcome back to Gaming with Gage, your podcast for Roleplaying Games and the Periphery. Thanks for being here Yes thank you for being here indeed. This week I had the pleasure of sitting down with Ron Blessing, a familiar name for many of you Savages out there. Ron is a veteran of the RPG Podcast world, an editor on Torg Eternity, the Community Manager for Pinnacle Entertainment, the host of The Peg Show and Savage Interludes and honestly, if I listed all of his credentials this intro would go on quite a long time. We talked about Ron’s career in depth, as well as his introduction to Roleplaying Games and what exactly and editor does. We even got to dig into a little bit of Savage Worlds mechanics, just at the end. As always, we ask that you rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher or wherever you listen.

Welcome back to Gaming with Gage, your podcast for Roleplaying Games and the Periphery. Thanks for being here. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend, if you choose to celebrate Thanksgiving. Personally I baked a lovely pumpkin pie. I just wanted to let everyone know that the newest episode of We Watch, We Talk; the Patreon exclusive podcast where myself and Amanda watch a movie and talk about it is out now. We have finished The Lord of the Rings and next month’s film will be The Princess Bride. In light of the holidays that we’ve just wrapped up, we decided to try something a little different this week. Instead of trying to schedule guest around a very busy time of the year we decided to rebroadcast an interview from the first season of Gaming with Gage. This is my chat with James D’Amato, Co-Founder of the One Shot Network and we talked about running different games for different players advice for game designers.

Welcome back to Gaming with Gage, your podcast for Roleplaying Games and the Periphery. Thanks for being here And thank you all for the feedback on last weeks episode. It was a very different experience being on the receiving end of those questions. Some of our previous guests submitted questions after the recording and we’re going to be releasing the answers to those questions on our Patreon. Speaking of Patreon, next Monday we’ll be releasing the next episode of We Watch, We Talk and announcing our next movie. You can check that out at https://www.patreon.com/GamingWithGage. This week, Chris Hussey joins me to talk about a question he recently received about advice for a brand new GM. The thing that makes this most interesting is that the GM is also a fairly new player. Chris went over the advice he gave and I threw in my own two cents.
