Episode 0022: Engage Palladium Geek!
The overlords are joined by Chris Perrin, formerly of the Canon Puncture podcast, currently of Echoes from the Rifts® and Game Cryer. There is no sign of the fabled “third Chris” (or “fourth [K/Ch]ris”, depending upon which fables you subscribe to) but that is almost certainly not because the final Chris took a wrong turn while wandering unescorted through the well-lit halls of The Secret Lair and stumbled across an experimental, non-photosensitive grue. That sort of thing simply doesn’t happen around here.

Discussion: The Hatfields and The McCoys (AKA, Traditional Gamers vs. Story Gamers)
- The Overlords tend to be Traditional Gamers. Everything is conducted in the dark through a hole in the sheet.
- Perrin plays both sides of the fence. “A plague,” says he. “A plague ‘pon both your houses!”
