Episode 327: Good Luck Getting Any Wood
January 18th, 2019 | Robin
In the Gaming Hut we examine the desire to play less than competent characters.
The History Hut takes us back to the 7th century BC and the reign of Assyrian super-king Ashurbanipal.
In How to Write Good we look at the connection between character sympathy and emotional rhythm.
Finally we sidle into the Eliptony Hut, where we peer into the library of unexpected paranormalist Jackie Gleason.
