The Glitterbois ·

2025/10/24

Picking up right after our last session, we're starting our first of what we plan on being a regularly-recurring new themed episode format for the show. GM John from Real Play Games again joins us to kick off what we're calling "The Glitterbois Set the Scene," a series of episodes that show how the Palladium system functions at the table, with single scenes that could be played in their game worlds.

To celebrate our 200th main series episode of this cast, we're joined by special guest and friend of the show, GM John from the Real Play Games Podcast.

And hint-hint: this is only the first part of something new and awesome we are doing here...Thanks to all of you listeners for your support over
