    Check Please Episode 94: This Episode, Rules!
    In this episode, we talk about the work of a terrible human being and how we can apply their methods to us, the managers of a cave where we're building a cult to a mysterious monster. Plus, then we get too sad to talk about that, so we chat about tabletop RPGs and Harry Potter shows up!

    Check Please Episode 90: The One Where It's Just Will Talking to Austin Shinn about Audio Drama

    Check Please Episode 90: The One Where It's Just Will Talking to Austin Shinn about Audio Drama
    What if the podcast wasn't actually the podcast for an episode? Instead, please join me in another world where The Wretched Beast powers down to talk to friend Austin Shinn (@untitleduser on Twitter) about audio drama and radio shows. Listen for recommendations maybe! It was a nice chat. Will Binns (the alter ego of The Wretched Beast) is currently moving to another part of the No Boot Media offices, so actual recording and editing is a little slow lately. Find Austin's work over at http://www.thefilmroom.org! Theme music: Roll Jordan Roll bumpers (The Joy Drops) / CC BY 4.0

    Check Please Episode 84: Mandatory Ready Player One Conversation
    Is everybody pumped for some Ready Player Fun? You thought the conversation was Ready Player Done. Iron Giant cameos with his Ready Player Gun. See the Wild Wild West, how it was Ready Player Won. Actually we don't talk about most of that stuff but we do talk about Ready Player One sorta. I guess? Is there really much more to say about it? They made us do it. Theme music: Kaissa (Karpov Not Kasparov) / CC BY-NC-SA 3.0
