Episode 647: Live at THE KRAKEN
May 2nd, 2025 | Robin
For the first time at THE KRAKEN, the legendary Gaming Retreat held in the remote yet cozy environs of the Schloss Neuhausen in what used to be Prussia, Ken and Robin talk live to a group of rapt attendees. After nerdtroping Stalin and an alien invasion, we field questions on German cuisine, the economics of printing in Europe, adding a post-credits sequence to a game session, and whether there might one day be a Ken and Robin book.
