Mirth's drunk ramblings are far more entertaining than most's sober pontifications.


AFAIK, Bruce Heard has not renewed the restraining order against Mirth after that episode.


But we've also never been able to get Bruce to come back to either show  :whistle:

This should be the basis for a second podcast. Give mirth a bottle of whiskey and a microphone and press record.

Why a minor D&D person on the podcast?

He was a guest waaaaaay back on S2 of the GrogCast when his Calidar books were first coming out.  We talked about the old BECMI days at TSR, the early forays TSR had into the web, and then a bunch of his new Calidar stuff.

Having BC subsidize your podcast ramblings might not get you too far.  Unless you can live on Amazon credit from surveys :)

I would pay to see a Drunk Mirth-cast. I would also pay to see a drunk Mirth cast, I wonder if he would hook the lure on his hat or the back of his pants? I would also pay to see a drunk Mirth IN a cast, hopefully not seriously injured, trying to paint a picture or walk up a flight of stairs maybe. The key word here is, 'drunk' as you can tell. There are many drunken Mirth possibilities.  :applause:

There's a Beer and Board Games channel on YouTube that I used to watch regularly, though I lost interest as most of their 'good' content was locked behind a pay wall.

A drunk gaming podcast (I mean starting buzzed and then going full well-and-truly-rippled) would be far more entertaining.

This is essentially "Saturday Nite Fights"

I actually don't really like games.
