Writing for Roleplay, a TTRPG advice podcast for GMs and Players
An Intro to TTRPGs 101--No Student Loan Debt Needed.
Featuring hosts Forever GM Kevin Carpenter and Chaos Player Kayla Knutson, this podcast aims to tackle what makes TTRPGs so special and ways to make your own games more compelling, more cohesive, and most importantly--more fun!
Kevin and Kayla discuss everything from character creation to rules lawyering to crafting NPCs from the perspective of both sides of the GM screen. They reflect on their experiences in their earliest home games, in actual plays, and in writing for TV. At the end of the day roleplaying is a storytelling medium, no matter if the audience is just the players around the table or a global fanbase of thousands.
Whether you’re new to TTRPGs or a veteran player, Kevin and Kayla aim to offer tips, tricks, and their own screw-ups to help you roll with advantage when approaching your next game.
Recently, Kevin and Kayla sat down with Rascal New’s own Rowan Zeoli to discuss the rapidly expanding and exciting TTRPG space, where journalism fits into our entertainment industries, and what the future of TTRPGs and APs could be.
Writing for Roleplay airs weekly on Tuesdays, wherever you listen to podcasts.
Digital Kaiju Studios is also currently airing Gorilla Whale: A Godzilla Watch-Along Podcast.
