The Adventure Zone: Story and Song Graphic Novel is out in bookstores everywhere today! I'm so excited for you to get to read it!! We would never have made it this far without all of the time and attention and care you've given TAZGN over the years. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
It's a very important holiday: it's the start of the VERY LAST TAZGN launch countdown! TEN days left until The Adventure Zone: Story and Song Graphic Novel is out in bookstores everywhere!
MaxFunDrive is here and I just have to say: if you support independent media, you should consider supporting MaxFun. Truly independent networks are rare, and they're dedicated to maintaining that for themselves and the shows. Support the art you want to see in the world (if funds allow obviously)

Genuinely the only thing keeping me going—but it really is keeping me going—is how good it is to see people link arms and push for this to end. I cannot stop thinking about how much love people can have for their neighbors, and how much work and money is poured into breaking that love apart.
As a kid, I always dreamed of being a contestant on Nick Arcade. Tragically, it was canceled after only two seasons. My dream never came true. UNTIL TODAY.

For years, I hoped NPR, NYTimes, or the ghost of Gimlet would make a video game podcast. A weekly, hour-long audio magazine with essays, interviews, tight editing, and a cheeky sense of humor. Nobody made the show I wanted to hear. So, I made it myself. Here's the first episode of Post Games.
