The Diceology Podcast
Welcome to Diceology — a podcast network for people who take their games seriously and their tables even more seriously.
I'm Mad Jay, GM-at-Large, and this feed used to be one show. Now it's four:
- Muses of Play — Sarah Doom and I muse about creativity and designers
- Dice Unknown — actual-play and behind-the-table stories pulled straight from the games I'm running.
- The Vault — All the episodes that have come before!
Think StoryCorps for gamers, spread across three shows instead of one feed doing everything badly. We talk about where games fit into people's lives, what early gaming was like, what life looks like after the dice are put away — and I still bring my own GM-at-Large adventures into it. What I'm playing, running, or prepping, at the table or online.
Whether you're chasing the latest TTRPG trends or just want the rest of the gamer's story, you're in the right feed.
Let's run those dice. 🎲 🎲 🎲

Last Week in Gaming - Legacy 2E Shenanigans
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Started Mothership with Judd. I'm playing a character inspired by Fox Mulder. The pitch: Two scientists investigate the disappearance of their professor and the crew of a science vessel.
Twilight: 2000: The discovery of a dead soldier stashed in the woods and a convoy heading toward Barnes's occupied Polish town, sends Bard and Justin off to extract Tracy and Janush. They decide to confront the polish spook, Phil before sneaking out of the encampment and back to their base in the woods.
Legacy 2E: Gale and Manta-ray kill each other in the Endless city over control of the "Hand" artifact. Gale's death move sends both players to an eternal hellscape. The artifact is lost to the Endless City. And the Third age begins.
Wrath & Glory: Exotic weapons have been turning up in skirmishes on Gideon Prime. Tasked with investigating the origins of these weapons our favorite Tech-Priest follows a trail that leads him to the Spacehulk - Veritagous.
Playing Elden Ring - dying, wonder, exploring, dying.
Prepping Barbarians of Lemuria: Treachery at Axos Mountains. We have a fully leaned-in sorcerer, a sky-ship pilot, and an amnesiac mercenary being pursued into the Axos Mountains where they hope to find a haven of outcasts to go to ground at.
Improv for Gamers 2e will be on Gamefound by Evil Hat. I've got a piece in there as well as a cornucopia of amazing folks, check it out.
And GauntletCon Open Gaming end of March. C'mon out and play!!
