Me and You: Recent Episodes
Caitlin and Michael
Welcome to Me and You! This is the story of two nerds and their adventures in life (both in table top games and IRL). Come join the adventure and build some memories with Michael and Caitlin.
Dungeon crawls getting boring? Do you have enemies inside your own groups stronghold? Do you want to play political enemy the party has to go against? What is different about a political enemy vs a regular monster? How do you narrate a political adventure? We try to cover all these topics with examples from our own games.
Magic is powerful. Magic is beautiful. Magic is destructive. What if Magic was for the mundane? What could people use it for? We, well Michael, talk about our own tangent on this topic. What do you think?
We’ve kinda hinted at this for a while. Ok maybe not. It’s more like a giant flashing sign floating over our heads, but here’s why Michael likes dragons so much.
We all know the basic languages you can have in your games. Some have home brew languages that is a mix of two languages or there’s nothing except Common. But have you ever stopped to think about languages that were from the past? Ones that could have died out or are the origins of the most common languages. Come along as we talk about our take on using a “dead” language in any kind of campaign.
There are so many types of characters to play. The serious paladin. The sneaky rogue. The dragon loving bard? Wait what? Come along with us as we talking about meme characters and how fun or annoying they can be in different situations.
What’s the difference between emotional and physical pain? Are they one in the same? Is one better than the other? Every DM has their presence and in this episode we talk about our own preferences as well as our own definition for these types of pains.
“I like...” In this episode we talk about our favorites in RPG’s. Why we like them and why we think other games hold special places in our hearts.
What’s the difference between all the alignments? Is there a way to be multiple? How do they affect other players? Do they affect NPC’s? We talk about all of this and a little more in this episode.
What’s more exciting than seeing your character come to life? Seeing it play out on a map perhaps? Or physically holding your character in the palm of your hand? We talk about all of this and how it has effected our own game play.
Do RPG’s need holidays? Festivals? Celebrations? How do you make it work? What do you do? We talk about our own experiences and ideas for our own games in this episode.
We have a special guest this episode to help us describe what it’s like having relationships are like at the table. What’s it like when there’s a real life couple vs when there’s a game life relationship. Plus you can’t forget about the side tracking and goofing off too. (Also sorry about the audio for some parts)
This is a random unplanned episode but we wanted to talk more about characters. So, why not share our conversation with you guys. Enjoy this spur of the moment podcast all about our character playing style.
Follow the yellow brick road. Don’t leave it ever. But what if you did? This episode we talk about how to get off road and back on track when things get a little chaotic.
How do you find the perfect TTRPG group? Is it based on characters? Chemistry? Friends? Enemies? Frenemies? In this episode we talk about it all from three different perspectives.
Michael and Caitlin start diving into our characters and their relationships. How do they relate to each other? How is it different from real life? How are they similar? All questions are answered in this episode and maybe a few others.
Michael and Caitlin are finding themselves in a new level of life, Podcasts. Will they survive the challenges of this level? Will they move on to the next round? Come get to know these two new adventures and how they take on the world.
