Shauncastic (RAWR!)

I don’t listen to a lot of podcasts.

I mean, there are a few I listen to from time, but none of them on a regular “I-have-to-hear-every-episode” basis. Generally I listen to specific episodes here and there from various podcasts when the topic being discussed is one I think I will be interested in. There are a TON of podcasts out there, I don’t have to tell you that, but combine my listening habits with this fact and you have a weem who simply does not know of most podcasts out there. I can remember the name of maybe 6-7 “RPG” podcasts right now.

With that in mind, I was contacted last week by Shaun over at “Shauncastic.com“. He told me I might dig his podcast and that if I had a chance I should give it a listen. To be honest I was a bit hesitant initially – as I mentioned, I’m not a huge podcast guy – but I decided to give it a try. Why not?

Well…

I loved it.

BAM!

Shaun’s energy is awesome, and not something you see (hear?) often (at least in my experience) from an RPG podcast. He’s a funny guy, and his charisma comes right to the front in his show. It’s is not entirely RPG related, but there seem to be more of those recently – he would say his core audience relates to the “geek/nerd pop culture”, so that might give you an idea of the possibilities.

Also rounding out the other members of the show show (at least in the number of episodes I have listened to so far) are Nicole “The Artist”, her boyfriend Luke “The Flatulent” and Ben “The RPG Pile”.

The latest episode “To 4e Or Not 4e” covers 4th Edition, and why they are playing it – how they discovered it, etc.

Fair warning – I know a number of you reading this are well versed in 4e – the RPG related casts tend to explain 4e rules for the benefit of those new to 4e, so a lot of that will be old news to you – but it’s still a good listen, and even better for those newer to the game.

Anyway, if you get a chance, check out the show today!

  1. Yep, Shaun kicks a**. Pure, simple and to the point 🙂 In real life he is just as charismatic (more so) as in his ‘cast. The show is always a riot, and I highly recommend checking in. The back episodes are an epic blast.

    Take it easy guys !
