## Resource

UPDATE: Thomas spoke with Paizo CEO Jim Butler after we recorded this. Industry news looms heavy over the discussion between Chase, Thomas, and Caelyn, but they find plenty of time for regularly scheduled shenanigans. The episode leads with Paizo's recent layoffs, how Diamond Comics Distribution caused it, and where the publisher goes from here. Afterward, they move on to RPG Trader and what this new, indie-focused storefront does differently from the major players. Stay tuned for an infiltration-themed Question Dungeon, Thomas' extremely satisfying week of games, and Chase's dalliance with duplicity. -- Hosted by Chase Taylor-Carter ( @chasecarter.bsky.social ). Featuring Thomas Manuel ( @newmadras.bsky.social ) and Caelyn Ellis ( @caelyn.bsky.social ). Theme song by People Need Goals. Cover art logo by Johan Nohr ( @johannohr.bsky.social ). -- Games we discuss: SPINE Asher's Ridge Diplomacy Apocalypse World Band of Blades Daggerheart Neon Odyssey --
