A clean actual-play podcast that's mostly a D&D campaign set in a flat world trapped in a glass container, but then changes to Planescape/Spelljammer/other weird stuff, and we even play some other systems! Now finished, but find us on @thehouseofbob.org.

We're in the home stretch! Only five episodes left in our #actualplay #DnD #podcast after this.

Levarrion's coronation will go smoothly, right? He's such a great leader, after all.

We have new art from shaunmakes!

This #actualplay #DnD #podcast is barreling toward its conclusion at incredible speed! Here's the release schedule so far. Production of episode 188 is almost finished, too, and it looks like 189 will be the last regular episode.
We're almost done!

This week we're playing a #StarFrontiers one-shot using a homebrew version of the 1982 rules. This was a ton of fun; I wish my brother were around to hear it. Can the mercs of S.C.U.M. figure out what is going on at Aramax One?

An ape-like yazirian, an insectoid vrusk, a blobular dralasite, and a frankly indescribable Osakar pose in front of the logo for S.C.U.M., the Splendid company of Upstanding Mercenaries. The image is in the style of a comic book cover.

Over on Tales of Bob we're trying the new Cowboy Bebop RPG from Mana Project Studio, and we're calling it "Cowboy Bebob"! It's so unusual that we struggle a bit to wrap our heads around it, but we've got original music and some fun characters.

A space cowboy sits in a sci-fi booth smoking a cigar. The both has a label clearly indicating that smoking is not allowed. The logo behind the booth says "House of Bob Presents: Cowboy Bebob".

I still haven't figured out who John Tantoblin (author of "Aramax One" in issue 4 of Imagine Magazine in 1983) was, and I think it's probably a nom de plume. The editor (Keith Thomson) and publisher (Don Turnbull) are both dead. Anyone have suggestions for how I might figure out who Tantoblin was?

We're back to the story, as the party continues to discuss their next objective...but Zartok has made up his mind. Will Zartok and Coral reconcile their differences?

It doesn't seem like it, but this actual-play D&D 5E podcast is nearing its conclusion!

This week the party visits Mun Immortal in his orbiting wizard tower. Maybe he can tell them how to wrap up this story! If only there were a climate monster they could just punch in the face to fix everything...

Episode 171 of our actual-play D&D 5E podcast is out! The party begins a multi-episode argument about what to do next, but Zartok has already made up his mind--and the rest of the party won't like his plan.

A TFTGGW listener who wishes to be known as "ThePocketArtist" shared these pictures of Zartok (tiefling wizard) and Aster Fortuna (half-drow rogue and bard extraordinaire) with us. Zartok looks especially grumpy, doesn't he?

Our heroes' spelljammer has been grappled by a Neogi Mindspider, and that Neogi ship's pilot has been killed, so now both ships are plummeting to the ground. Can the Glass Guardians free their ship before they all die?

This week our heroes, the Glass Guardians, resume their fight against the Neogi, as their spelljammer is still grappled by a Neogi Mindspider. It goes poorly!

We have some new Ignacio Corva art that I was going to make this season's podcast art, but we can't use it yet or it would spoil things for the players. We are therefore reusing last season's art, a collaboration between our DM and Ignacio Corva:

Papa Gasten earns a new epithet over the next few episodes of Tales from the Glass-Guarded World:

Gasten the Assassin.

He's much more dangerous than he looks!
