<p>Rowan rejoins Chase to unspool the myriad and unclear ways tariffs have already begun affecting the tabletop industry. From clarity on book exemptions and companies already shuttering production for the year to determined stands against economic despotism by Canadian designers, the Tariff Era (or maybe Tariff Wars? we're still workshopping) has arrived.<br /> <br /> Later they discuss what it means for Jeremy Crawford and Chris Perkins, the dual faces of Dungeons & Dragons, to retire from their very public posts. The pair also discuss building worlds where babies have jobs, dungeon delving on your birthday, and whether tariffs might kick off another surge of innovation in the virtual tabletop space.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.rascal.news/">https://www.rascal.news/</a></p> <p><a href= "https://moreblueberries.shop/en-gbp/products/rascal-anniversary-zine-preorder"> https://moreblueberries.shop/en-gbp/products/rascal-anniversary-zine-preorder</a></p> <p>--</p> <p>Games mentioned:</p> <p>In This World<br /> <br /> The Electric State</p> <p>Dungeons & Dragons</p> <p>Gloomhaven RPG</p> <p>Wickedness</p> <p>MIRU</p> <p>Mazes</p> <p>--</p> <p>Hosted by Chase Carter (<a href= "https://bsky.app/profile/chasecarter.bsky.social" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@chasecarter.bsky.social</a>).</p> <p>Featuring Rowan Zeoli (<a href= "https://bsky.app/profile/rowanzeoli.bsky.social" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@rowanzeoli.bsky.social</a>).</p> <p>Theme song by <a href= "https://peopleneedgoals.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">People Need Goals.</a></p> <p>Cover art logo by Johan Nohr (<a href= "https://bsky.app/profile/johannohr.bsky.social">@johannohr.bsky.social</a>).</p>

<p>Chase and Caelyn convene the first Brits-only episode of the Rascal Radio Hour, talking about everything but the April 2 tariffs (check the website for those bits). The pair go heavy on the deluge of miniatures news that came out of Adepticon 2025, including a shot in the arm for Caelyn's favored Star wars: Legion, an East Asian-inspired Warhammer 40k faction that doesn't immediately sour our tastes, and Battletech Goes Full Catholic.<br /> <br /> The most recent skirmish in the Question Dungeon reveals the surprisingly complicated topics of video games adapting tabletop RPGs and what the crew think is the next big innovation on the player side of the tabletop industry (hint: it's not virtual tabletops again).<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.rascal.news/">https://www.rascal.news/</a></p> <p><a href= "https://moreblueberries.shop/en-gbp/products/rascal-anniversary-zine-preorder"> https://moreblueberries.shop/en-gbp/products/rascal-anniversary-zine-preorder</a> </p> <p><a href= "https://cannibalhalflinggaming.com/2024/08/15/invention-and-innovation-in-ttrpgs/"> https://cannibalhalflinggaming.com/2024/08/15/invention-and-innovation-in-ttrpgs/</a></p> <p>--</p> <p>Games mentioned:</p> <p>Cyberpunk: Combat Zone</p> <p>RiverBank</p> <p>Star Wars: Legion</p> <p>Star Wars: Shatterpoint</p> <p>Warhammer: 40K</p> <p>Battletech</p> <p>--</p> <p>Hosted by Chase Carter (<a href= "https://bsky.app/profile/chasecarter.bsky.social" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@chasecarter.bsky.social</a>).</p> <p>Featuring Caelyn Ellis (<a href= "https://bsky.app/profile/caelyn.bsky.social" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">@caelyn.bsky.social</a>).</p> <p>Theme song by <a href= "https://peopleneedgoals.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">People Need Goals.</a></p> <p>Cover art logo by Johan Nohr (<a href= "https://bsky.app/profile/johannohr.bsky.social">@johannohr.bsky.social</a>).</p>

<p>Most of the Rascal crew, plus guest Lin Codega, chew through a heavy news week that includes the shuttering of Sigil, Wizards of the Coast's own virtual tabletop, and one Texas Representative's crusade against imagination that might harm roleplayers in its evil intent to demonize trans (and transgressive) youth. Rowan regales with stories from their time at Breakout Con in Toronto, and Caelyn reminds everyone how cool transparent plastic electronics were.</p> <p>They have also been playing a bunch of different games, including a newly started Rascal campaign of Realis and phone-based pirate shenanigans. Finally, they once again venture into the Question Dungeon to compare their pettiest table tales.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.rascal.news/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://www.rascal.news/</a></p> <p>--</p> <p>Games mentioned:</p> <p>Daggerheart</p> <p>Fallen London: The Roleplaying Game</p> <p>Realis</p> <p>Bloodbeam Badlands</p> <p>A Land Once Magic</p> <p>City of Mist</p> <p>O Captain, My Captain!</p> <p>Deathmatch Island</p> <p>Monsterhearts</p> <p>--</p> <p>Hosted by Chase Carter (<a href= "https://bsky.app/profile/chasecarter.bsky.social" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@chasecarter.bsky.social</a>).</p> <p>Featuring Caelyn Ellis (<a href= "https://bsky.app/profile/caelyn.bsky.social" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">@caelyn.bsky.social</a>), Rowan Zeoli (<a href= "https://bsky.app/profile/rowanzeoli.bsky.social" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@rowanzeoli.bsky.social</a>), and Lin Codega (<a href="https://bsky.app/profile/lincodega.bsky.social" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">@lincodega.bsky.social</a>).</p> <p>Theme song by <a href= "https://peopleneedgoals.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">People Need Goals.</a></p> <p>Cover art logo by Johan Nohr (<a href= "https://bsky.app/profile/johannohr.bsky.social">@johannohr.bsky.social</a>).</p>
