Show Recaps

Here are summaries of new episodes from Misdirected Mark Productions this past week:

MMPlays 027 – Smarty Pants Part Six
We join the Children of the Shroud as they return to school on a Monday morning and then continue their pursuit of Samia in the evening – but wait, there’s a twist and Phil is gonna do some GM Gymnastics in this one. Check it out on this weeks Children of the Shroud.

Dwarfs, Elves, Dragonborn, Githyanki, Giff, Plasmoids, Draconians, Gnomes, Humans, Tieflings, Eladrin, Drow, and more. On this episode we’re talking about why people might choose the species they’re playing.

Panda’s Talking Games 322 – Supporting New GMs
Show us how players can support a brand new GM! Phil and Senda talk through some of the responsibilities that the GM stereotypically takes on and how players can either assist or take over those responsibilities, especially when a new GM is getting their GMing legs under them or is intimidated by the number of things they have to manage.

Gnomecast #169 – Plot Seeds
Not every seed that’s planted in the ground grows, which is why you need to get some fertile soil, space your seeds in the soil properly, water them as needed, and monitor those seeds as they begin to sprout and grow.

Same thing applies to Plot Seeds but instead of trowels, watering cans, and enriched soil we bring a different set of tools and ideas to the game table. Characters, places, items, and events. So take a journey through Ang, Chris, and Jared’s metaphorical garden and get into how they use plot seeds in games.
