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. 🎲 🎲 🎲

On the table
3 sessions in for Vena and the King of Nothing! We had a solid ordinary but strong third session of Burning Wheel. We talk about the three sessions and the game so far, the good, the bad, and what's next. Spoilers: Elle is still game!
I did a panel called Fresh Starts for Big Bad Con with Lowel Francis from the Gauntlet and Rich Rogers of +1 Forward fame. We talked about starting new games with new groups.
I re-started a Twilight: 2000 limited series, a reboot of a one-shot I ran for GauntletCon Open Gaming --two events ago!
Starting up some Delta Green with Brendan. He is playing an online blogger media journalist that investigates weird true crimes. How have I not looked at this game before?!
I've finished Superman and the Authority #4. I don't want it to end!
Played a Debtpunk hack of Apocalypse World, looking to see where the fun, interesting stuff is. And thus was born the IX playbook!
Prepping
- Whitehack for a group formed on the IGRC.
- Back into Pirates of Drinax and the One Ring this week.
- Forbidden Lands for the Patreon monthly hustle game.
