This will be edited and broadcast on Tuesday as part of the Radio Café (http://www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/radioscotland/programmes/cafe/) arts programme they have. They are interviewing Mark Barrowcliffe about his novel The Elvish Gene (http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/b/mark-barrowcliffe/elfish-gene.htm) where he tells tales of playing D&D in his teens. The show will obviously touch on the death of Gary Gygax. So on Saturday I ran a D&D (3.5) game which was cobbled together late on the Friday night from some stuff online and mixed in a few classic beasties like the rust monster (what's not to like) and a purple worm. Having never been interviewed or indeed recorded whilst running a game I think it's gonna sound crap, but what do I care. A little bit of embarrassment and a lot of fun went toward a celebration of the life of the man who started it all. The show will be on live tomorrow at 1:15pm and replayed at 7:15pm UK time. I am expecting to get a mp3 version of the show which I'll be putting on the ORC website in due course. If anyone is interested in me reposting a link for that let me know. Cheers, Dave

There are loads of US based podcasts, but I cant see any from other regions. I lived in the UK for 2 years and have some fond memories of roleplaying there, so if you werent planning to already, it would be great to have a link posted here.
