In episode 36 we briefly touch on a recent study which showed that roleplaying games can benefit your mental health - plus the other benefits of escapism, self-exploration, creative expression, caregiving, social support, and routine. We definitely agree!

Non Glasgwegian listeners to episode 36 might have been confused by Ailsa shouting "haud the bus!" when unexpectedly finding extra stickers in her mystery bag. Basically it means "hold the bus" or simply "wait a minute."
