Oof. I’m really missing the days of classic forum websites and posts.

Can’t say enough good things about The Between. What other game lets you ask a question like this?

Keep those players on their toes!!!

Robert, doing the final listening pass of an episode to add the show notes and content warning: “So obviously, a CW for Body Horror”

Me, who forgets the specifics of episodes the moment I finish editing them: “Why???” 🤡

I’m here for it!

👀👀👀👀

Recording a self-tape on vacation, far away from one’s normal setup, is such a humbling experience. Backdrop? My partner’s childhood bedroom. Lighting? A desk lamp and a prayer. Tripod? An iPhone leaned against a stack of books. Enjoy the Shakespeare monologue!

KITTEN MARLOWE IS FREE

I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY TO LISTEN TO THE BEST AP TO TOUCH A PLAYBOOK.

The entire cast lives for the live reactions.

Reading this makes me so happy!

Regular reminder that none of us in the TTRPG space are in competition with one another. We are ALL in competition with obscurity, uncertainty, confusion, and other ways to spend your time.

And sometimes D&D.

I’m reading this right now! Halfway through, and really digging it. Very early King.

Shadows in the Smoke S1E35 - "My Life Is Yours" | Kitten Marlowe - actual play tabletop rpg podcasts, and more In which our hunters spend some time with friends, new and old. Mr. Hutchinson and Ms. Thanero grow closer, while Mr. Lloyd and Ms. Douglas dodge close calls....

A kinky, queer, sexy episode for those of you who want more explicit spice in your AP content. With a side of Greek gods, eldritch horror, and cannibalism. Something for the whole family!

- Got married!! 👰🏻‍♀️
- Started @kittenmarlowe.bsky.social and launched our first show: Shadows in the Smoke, an AP of The Between.

Looking back, I would not recommend DIYing a wedding and starting a podcast in the same ~6 months. But I also wouldn’t have done it any differently.

GET INTO IT

I ask you, is there anything more tense than a cordial meal with the game’s BBEG? Everyone so polite, yet brimming with violence…

It’s always DM can I roll for investigation and never DM can I tell you how beautiful you look right now? Absolutely, stunning sitting behind your DM screen plotting away at our collective demise.

Support 👏 your 👏 friends’ 👏 art 👏

Be like Percy.

@kittenmarlowe.bsky.social

Y’ALL are the first AP podcast to put your money where your mouth is. I ADORE Shadows in the Smoke, and I haven’t caught up to a show like that since The Adventure Zone Balance. I can confidently call y’all The Definitive The Between Experience.

You heard her, folks

My besties at @thebadspot.bsky.social, @memesterotwpod.bsky.social, @shrimpandcrits.com, @2dollarcreature.bsky.social, and @dustehill.bsky.social.

Also some money for @carrion-comfort.com to do whatever they want, because everything they make is gold

I’m happy to give a peek behind the curtain and show a moment where we paused and asked, “Are we feeling good about this, or do we want to go back and change it to xyz?” My table loves a big swing, but such swings are only possible because we’re working from a place of love and collaboration. (2/2)

I tend to keep a pretty tight hand on Kitten Marlowe’s edit, and cut a lot of above-the-table chatter. But I decided to keep a brief player check-in towards the end of our most recent ep, after a particularly brutal in-game moment. Safety tools are a vital part of my tables. (1/2)

Following the development of this has been making it so difficult to resist booting up Elden Ring again.

We love him. Where is he popping up next?

A great way to please me is to kiss my NPCs or kill my NPCs.

Oof. That push/pull of feeling guilty that downloads have dipped on the pod because I've been pretty quiet on socials for the last month or so (yay wedding!), but feeling exhausted at the thought of having to Get Myself Out There after a hiatus. Why must social media feel so mentally taxing?

If you don’t mind the self promo, I ran some Brindlewood Bay and The Between on Critshow’s patreon feed a bit ago! I now have my own The Between AP which isn’t behind a paywall, which I’ll link below. I think it shows off the game really well! kittenmarlowe.com/podcast/kitt...
