S1:E8 – GM Notes - Consultation

In this episode, we consult on a serious case of taking GM Notes, in which we share our personal tips and tricks that we use when we run tabletop games. Now with updated audio!


Consultations are more free-form topic discussions based on our own GM experiences, preferences, and gaming philosophies. We hope some of this gibbering madness can be helpful to other GMs dealing with, or considering using, these issues at their table (or at least add new and exciting chattering voices inside listener's heads).
