Hello Bonus Babies,

Hello Bonus Babies,

Welcome to our first BXP Reads, a new thing we’re doing for Season 4. In today’s episode we read and review The Man and the Stag by Beau Jagr Sheldon. It’s a two-player. card-based storytelling game with some beautiful themes. 

The extended cut contains our usual chaos as Monica and Rai attempt to be professionals who know what they’re doing.

Hello Bonus Babies,

We’ve touched on this topic a little bit before but today we really wanted to delve into the subject: Exalted is a game dripping with queer themes. Monica and Rai bring their knowledge as literature people to the table to break down why Exalted is queer as hell (and you should play it). The discussion is chaotic and informative, as always. 

Also discussed in the extended cut: a few vocal warmups, cats and dogs living together, the depressing path to herd immunity and 80% more sound crimes than usual. 

We’re back, Bonus Babies!

In this introductory episode, Monica and Rai give a hearty shout out and thank you to all our Patrons. We also run down what’s new for this season. We hope to see you at our live shows! To join our Discord, click here:  https://discord.gg/ptMnNRHWrG
If you are a Patron and Discord is not connected to your Patreon account, just let us know and we will give you the appropriate roles.

With love,

Monica and Rai

Hello Bonus Babies, 

It’s here! Rai and Monica bring friend of the show and sometimes cohost Danielle Lauzon back to discuss the Scion: Dragon Kickstarter – a product all three of us worked on. 

This episode contains everything you want to know about Dragon, and our contributions. 

In the extended cut: NINTETY FULL MINUTES of Dragon content, plus throwing shade at Ch-ck N-rris, that uhhhhhhh attempted coup, no fly list schadenfreude and so so many Dragon spoilers.

Hello Bonus Babies, 

D is back for another episode as our synesthetic Rai Replacement while Rai was busy with the holidays. 

Together D & Monica talk about the phenomenon of power creep – from a player and a designer standpoint. Can it ever really be avoided? What can you do to prevent it? What’s the difference between incidental power creep and intentional? We discuss games we’ve played and games we’ve worked on as examples. 

In the extended cut: we roast some egregious examples.
