I'm Guy from How to be a Great GM! Welcome to our very first podcast! I have been playing TTRPGs, game mastering TTRPGs, teaching, making videos, writing books about role playing and being a great GM for many years and I've seen the channel and the community grow. This roleplaying community is a special one and I am honoured to be a part of it and to have the space and opportunity to contribute in my own way.One of the things that I've learnt doing this is that not any one of us has it all figured out really. There are some questions that I don't know the answers to but we always rally together to find the common place to rest our swords. And on this podcast, that is exactly what we will be doing. We will talk about what's on my mind, what's on your mind and answering your questions on all things TTRPG related. So join me every week as we talk, discover and challenge each other on this podcast.
