Role Playing Podcast for the slightly insane. NSFW game sessions where several old gimmers run through various games. It's irreverent, filthy, full of bad language and dubious content - not for the feint-hearted.

  • I'm Your Nemesis (Xmas Special) - Its Good to be Bard Podcast 40 (Marvel Superheroes)
    Dec 23 2025

    IIIIITTTTTTTTTT'SSSSSS CHRISTMASSSSssssss. That's right, we're back with another Christmas special for TSR's defunct Marvel Superheroes game. 6 players, 4 GMs, suggestions to pull from the hat and a whole heap of utter nonsense. It doesn't get more bonkers than this.

    If you want to know what it's all about – catch our facebook explanation herehttps://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=pfbid02HW3FqJLfDwSW1CNiMtrkyzqRZY2FEBVodHy38F3caWDhqFqAK6xRPQnam3qP6yBpl&id=61556697187082&__cft__[0]=AZbnI4nOo9iSkDWT5lGC5OYTK-NKkFQWRy3GMsxPJ6MUKXyYlL3YJlKgGnngHWhlme04dj7bmkaqoZoFPJHt-WqMgVTgSkGv_vY794oK0tX4FNJwD0JC62IqhJArTrIyFffhdcxTYTs5_wIuPXlq_7VsuFtbTJVRDanVQBavNP9aaii8KjOrDvz0vvwn2QJQdhPtFRNLL82ZU7HQ4kOCvgHt&__tn__=%2CO%2CP-R

    Anyway – four GMs, Graeme, Dave, Ollie and Matt will battle vainly to pull a story together for Lee and another Dave, but will we manage to make a coherent plot out of it all. I will go out on a limb and say “unlikely”.

    Please feel free to check out other pages such as https://classicmarvelforever.com/cms/- the full page of classic Marvel roleplaying, and https://www.facebook.com/Classicmarvelsuperheroes/- a run down of 30 years of game sessions for TSR Marvel.

    No Spoiler alert this week. You can't spoil this chaos but if you want to see Chuck Norris, Dr Doom and Paddington Bear in the same adventure, then you'd better get weaving.

    TSR is no longer available to buy so classic marvel site above contains downloads of the game, but you can find copies online or at several good role playing shops, and some rubbish ones as well.

  • The Racist Owl - Its Good to be Bard Podcast 39
    Dec 15 2025

    We're back in the Shire for this weeks roleplaying session of The One Ring (by Free League Publishing). Our three intrepid Halflings (Dave, Dave and Ollie) put Graeme, our GM through his paces and have a thoroughly entertaining hour of fun. It's all walking, pies, walking, ham, complaining, tea, walking, buns. You get the picture. Graeme is now on sedatives, hopefully he'll be fully fit for part 5.

    Spoiler alert – you may ruin the adventure if you listen in and intend to play. It's doubtful you will recognise the adventure, but you never know.

    Don't forget, you can find the game on the Free League Website and at any good role playing shops, and several rubbish ones as well. We've given The One Ring some clog recently and you can find all three previous parts at the links below.
