Fireside Chat for WWW ep49 “The New World”
Added 2025-06-03 10:30:01 +0000 UTCAfter recording the episode COMPLETELY APART, the cast reunites to cast blame, make insincere passive aggressive apologies, throw drinks in each other's faces, and proudly admit to the camera that they are "not here to make friends." I think. I think that's what happens. Been watching A LOT of Real Housewives and The Hills, and I might be combining it all in my head. Anyway, at the launch party for Eursulon's new beach-wear brand, Ame STUNS the party when she invites Jeff, CEO of a competing beach-wear brand and Suvi's ex-best friend.

I was wondering why I wasn't getting everyone's amazing reactions, and now I know why! They weren't there to hear the awesome bits scattered throughout each other's moments!

2025-06-25 03:08:30 +0000 UTCThe dichotomy between Steel's and Nif's response to being orphaned/having traumatic childhoods is SO real. One wants to make sure other children never feel the pain they have felt, and the other thinks that children should feel that pain because "why should they have it better than her". I have known people like this in real life. Parents who want their children's lives to be better than theirs, so they save money for their future or provide them with opportunities etc, etc. And others who specifically make their children's lives difficult because they are so bitter about their own hard upbringing. Good stuff.

2025-06-22 05:05:11 +0000 UTCSomething weird has started happening with my Pocketcasts feed. Every time the new Episode is released, the previous fireside just... stops working. Even if I had already listened to part of it.

2025-06-14 02:00:36 +0000 UTCI had no idea that a podcast about a D&D campaign could make me cry. I have listened to 49 episodes and I’m blown away by how compelling it is.

2025-06-05 21:04:42 +0000 UTCI am so grateful for the love and care you all pour into creating this story together. While listening to Fireside chats, I am often reminded of Nina Simone's description of "an artist's duty" (both meta-textually relating to the players, as well as narratively to the characters NPC and PC alike). When I first heard her observations and philosophy on this topic, it felt like such a relief for someone to affirm and directly articulate the creative instincts I'd had. [You can find recordings of the following quote by searching "Nina Simone: An Artist's Duty"]-- 'An artist's duty as far as l'm concerned is to reflect the times. I think that is true of painters, sculptors, poets, musicians. As far as I'm concerned it's their choice. But I choose to reflect the times and situations in which i find myself. That to me is my duty. And at this crucial time in our lives when everything is so desperate, when every day is a matter of survival, I don't think you can help but be involved. Young people, black and white, know this, that is why they are so involved in politics. We will shape and mold this country or it will not be shaped and molded at all any more. So I don't think you have a choice, how can you be an artist and not reflect the times. That to me is the definition of an artist.'
