Welcome to Idle Inspiration, the podcast about finding our next favorite role-playing game...or building it. Join me and my co-host David as we talk about tabletop role-playing games in all their variety—the good, the bad, and the “rolled-a-natural-one-on-their-charisma-save”. We’ll discuss our favorite games, talk about what makes role-playing games great, and reminisce about past experiences. We’ll also take some time at the drawing board coming up with ideas for new tabletop games to scratch that designer’s itch. Come listen every other Saturday on your favorite podcatcher or watch on YouTube.
