BGB Podcast #226: Metapod

Metagaming is all about the game that exists within (and without) the game – it’s everything that’s not written in the rules. Whether that’s something that emerges at your table, or in the community at large, it can be a big part of the social experience, and we’re all for it. Before we get meta, we talk about Rum & Pirates, Box One, Shamans, and Crescent Moon.
