Kickstarter alert! Dr. Eugene Marshall has launched a new project, now live on Kickstarter, called S5E. This is an superhero-centric RPG with vivid comic book-style art and rules that integrate directly with Dungeons and Dragons, Fifth Edition. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sigil/s5e-superheroic-roleplaying-for-5th-edition ----- Jason is causing some more Good Trouble! This time, he is joined by Dr. Eugene Marshall from Arcanist Press. He wrote the supplement "Ancestry and Culture: An Alternative to Race in 5e," which reimagines how fantasy games present the idea of "race." In essence, Dr. Marshall reimagines the idea of race, breaking it apart into biological, heritable traits (ancestry) and culturally learned traits(culture). Your Orc still has tusks, your Tiefling still has darkvision, and your Savvas is still a giant, sentient rock. This approach simply severs biology from traits that are learned, which opens up space for individuals from different ancestries to be... well, different! This is a direct critique and answer to the idea that all non-human fantasy races, everywhere, act and behave the same (i.e. all Orcs are stupid and barbaric, all Vermlings are garbage-eating savages, etc.). Dr. Marshall helps Jason analyze this core idea and also answer common counter-arguments.

A snippet from Saturday live discussion about cooperative Living Card Games (LCG) and comparing the deck construction and building tips between all the cooperative LCGs from Fantasy Flight Games.

The Space-Biff, Dan Thurot, stops by the show to chat about... what in the world are we doing! We discuss the concept of "content creation", both in terms of its largely negative roots and how it has been appropriated and used by today's board game media creators. We also discuss related topics like meaningfulness, burnout, discovery, and others that have relevance for the human beings that make the board gaming media we all enjoy.

Dan Thurot the Space-Biff returns to the show to continue our critical reflection of what we are doing as board gaming media and content creators. In this episode, we take a deeper look at board game previews. We all know the epithets - hype train, cult of the new, etc. Yet, Dan and I both engage in preview content. We examine our approach and our desire to maintain healthy relationships with ourselves, publishers, and our audience.

Jason is taking a bit of a break from making fresh content for a few weeks as we enter the holiday season. In the meantime, please enjoy this guest appearance that Jason did on another show! Jason had the privilege of presenting Top Ten Card Games with Richard Ham, aka Rahdo. As usual, conversations with Rahdo are pretty long! However, we cover a lot of solo and cooperative games, among a few others, for you to enjoy. This episode has been reproduced with Richard's kind permission.

(Apologies for my mic quality in this one. Darn Zoom. I did the best I could to recover the audio). I interview Cole Medeiros, designer of Stardew Valley, the Board Game, about designing a different style of cooperative game. We discuss realizing the open world, delightful spirit of the video game in cardboard in a way that satisfies the hobby gamer instinct for control and agency.

Jason sits down with Geoff Engelstein to discuss blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and NFTs. We do our best to talk about what's going on in layman's terms that gamers can understand. The short message is that blockchains and cryptocurrencies have a lot of potential, but that NFTs in their current forms are grifts that prey on the confusion surrounding them. 0:00 Intro 2:26 Geoff talks Super Skill Pinball: Ramp It Up 6:36 Blockchain 24:30 Cryptocurrencies 37:39 NFTs 59:03 Environmentally Damaging? 1:09:31 Kickstarter's Move to Blockchain Shelf Stories YouTube (with video of this recording) - www.youtube.com/shelfstories __________________________________ YouTube - www.youtube.com/onestopcoopshop www.youtube.com/channel/UCPCIkULbgzMEW612cSdUX7Q Discord - discord.gg/p4jX8AF Facebook - www.facebook.com/onestopcoopshop Donate to One Stop Co-op Shop - www.patreon.com/onestop Email - onestopcoopshop@gmail.com

Liz Davidson and Jason get together once again to discuss history in games in two parts. In this first part, we discuss Euro games and other mass market games that leverage history for attention, sales, and audience comfort. In seeking audience comfort, those games lie to our faces. We analyze examples of these games - Puerto Rico, AuZtralia, Hadrian's Wall, and more. We also chart some ways forward.

Jason plays a bit of "devil's advocate" in this episode. In response to my discussion with Geoff Engelstein which held a whole lot of skepticism, a few watchers reached out to me to defend their purchases of NFTs and participation in that community. For the sake of a more well rounded discussion, I try to recreate their counter arguments as far as I can. ----- 0:00 Intro 4:41 What is Value? 5:46 Memorabilia 9:08 Owning Digital Art Assets 17:14 NFTs as a Force for Good 18:38 Environmental Cost and Theft from Artists 22:25 The Point is a Good Discussion ----- Shelf Stories YouTube (with video of this recording) - www.youtube.com/shelfstories __________________________________ YouTube - www.youtube.com/onestopcoopshop www.youtube.com/channel/UCPCIkULbgzMEW612cSdUX7Q Discord - discord.gg/p4jX8AF Facebook - www.facebook.com/onestopcoopshop Donate to One Stop Co-op Shop - www.patreon.com/onestop Email - onestopcoopshop@gmail.com

Liz and Jason spoke about colonization games offering a false sense of comfort in the last episode. In this one, we talk about the line between healthy misbehavior in games (which, for us, is a pretty big space) and unhealthy (games that evoke real world oppressions that are felt by people in the world today).

Jona Minotto, the One Pip Wonder, joins the show to share what she has learned about sustainability and eco-friendliness in board games.
