I’ve written before that I listen to a lot of podcasts. I currently hold subscriptions to 25 shows that I listen to on a regular basis predominantly on the subject of role playing games, comic books, and other geekery. On average, I listen to somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 hours of podcasts each week. […]
For two weeks, we here at IoM have been pimping the virtues of Atomic Overmind Press‘ latest offering, the new Savage Worlds setting book by Ken Hite, The Day After Ragnarok. The book asks the question, what if Ragnarok happened during World War II? Imagine a world where the Midgard Serpent was struck down by […]
I’m a huge fan of the Radio and TV Correspondents’ Dinners. Al Franken was magnificent at these events during the Clinton administration. This weekend, John Hodgman delivered the speech brilliantly identifying the rifts this President is healing, the rifts that divide Jock from Nerd…
A friend of mine and I were chatting today when he remarked that he had just picked up a set of World of Warcraft figures as a gift for his dad… “Wow!” I said, “That is so cool that you’re dad’s a gamer!” “Naw, he just likes the action figures.” Still cool. One of those […]
Brothers will fight and kill each other, sisters’ children will defile kinship. It is harsh in the world, whoredom rife -an axe age, a sword age -shields are riven- a wind age, a wolf age- before the world goes headlong. No man will have mercy on another.(*)

We’ve been awfully excited about Atomic Overmind Press‘ release of Ken Hite’s all-new Savage World setting, The Day After Ragnarok. In fact, I’ve been so jazzed about it that I’ve gotten our resident non-gamer, Paul, stoked about it as well. Brother Hite has a distinguished career in tabletop RPGs. He’s written for GURPS, White Wolf, […]
I’ve been rather stoked about Atomic Overmind‘s release of Kenneth Hite‘s all-new setting for Savage Worlds, The Day After Ragnarok. The book was supposed to come out last week, but was delayed until yesterday. I downloaded the PDF last night. I’m not ready to give my full review yet, but I’d like to share my […]
