At Origins Game Fair, I played CHEW: The Roleplaying Game based on the Image Comics series of the same name. I signed up for an adventure entitled “FDA Case File: Cock Holster” GM’ed by Pete Petrusha from Imagining Games. However, as of this writing, that was in the future as Pete, Head Writer, Mitchell Wallace, and I did this interview about their CHEW RPG Kickstarter pre-Origins. On that...

That same day, multiple major sporting events announced their cancelation cementing the reality of the pandemic in the US. By March 23rd, OPP canceled the Kickstarter. I interviewed developer, Steffie De Vaan, about...
Rick and Morty, the cartoon inspired by Doc Brown and Marty McFly's relationship from the movie Back to the Future, has taken sci-fi comedic nihilism to new highs and lows.
