Roll to Save
Three middle-aged nerds dive deep into the golden age of tabletop RPGs, covering the classics from the 80s and 90s that shaped the hobby we love today. Iain and Jason banter their way through gaming history while Steve desperately tries to keep them on topic—and occasionally succeeds.
Whether you're a grognard who lived through THAC0 or a newcomer curious about what to do with all those lovely polyhederal dice you've aquired, we've got you covered with historical deep-dives, roundtable discussions fueled by questionable nostalgia, and actual play episodes where our players' competence is... variable.
All of this released on a schedule that can charitably be called "flexible" at best.
Grab some dice and join us for a trip down memory lane—just don't ask us to commit to when the next episode will drop.

Paranoia - Getting Paranoid With Allen Varney
This episode, we're fortunate enough to speak to the man that most fans of Paranoia credit with bringing the game back from the dead following the dark times of late 2nd edition. Join us as we talk with Allen about how he got involved with Paranoia, what his highs and lows are with this game, and just what exactly went on in the development of Paranoia XP.
This is the third part of our Paranoia episodes - part one of the podcast features a look at the history of this wonderful game, whilst part two sees myself and my co-hosts sharing our fond memories of the game and our time spent running and playing it.
