The Fire Man: What’s New @ the Table

Added 2025-06-03 14:00:12 +0000 UTC

This ain’t the first time I’ve woken up tied to a chair. We learned some interesting things about Jonathan in the latest episode of Perpetua. Listen to The Shadow of the Dragon Tower Pt. 4 on your platform of choice and check out the episode notes here if you haven’t already.

Aquarium house. We dropped a new episode of our bi-weekly video game podcast, Side Story, last week. In our very first spoilercast, Austin, Sylvi and Keith discuss the ups and downs, ins and outs, left and rights of polarizing puzzle game Blue Prince.

Yes, fuck school! After surviving their first encounter with Shenmue, Jack moved up the Dreamcast Reading List to explore Jet Set Radio, the game that defined a very small, specific subgroup of a generation and made them just a little bit weird forever. The archive of this experience is now up on our YouTube channel.

The ass block. Likewise you can find the VOD for Dre, Art and Austin’s dip into NBA2K16 on YouTube now. You could say a lot of things about that game’s career mode, but for now I’m just going to say it’s ambitious.

Everybody’s giving him a friggin’ jewel. Last but not least, Fields of Mistria streams #22 and #23 have joined the rest of the Mistria Monday archives on YouTube.

Bonus! Even more podcasts!? If you have any lingering spring cleaning left to get done then good news: We’ve got even more for you to listen to than usual! Austin recently GMed a game of Going Rogue (an upcoming ttrpg you can support on Kickstarter until June 30th) and part 1 of that game can be listened to here. AMCA-listeners and OG Waypoint fans will also likely recognize the dulcet tones of Natalie Watson, so call that a double bonus. For something a little more intimate and downtempo, Austin also guested on an episode of Party of One and played Orbital Blues–a game described as “Springsteen in Space”, which feels laser-targeted towards us and probably many of you.
