A tabletop RPG podcast by a nerdy couple from Glasgow, Scotland. We aim to introduce you to new games (both mainstream and indie), support storytellers with our Ask A GM feature, and amuse you with quizzes and Python-esque silliness. Ailsa is a mainly lawful, occasionally chaotic player, and lover of all things strange and unusual. George is the long-suffering forever GM with close to 20 years experience of running a vast array of games. Plus we have a menagerie of strange creatures living w ...

We couldn't let 2023 end without giving you another episode - even if George has been haunted by some ill tidings of late - and so here we are with a rather chaotic episode we hope you'll still enjoy. First up is a Quiz, where George once again asks Ailsa to guess the prices of the random nerdy tat he has purchased. (With a slight twist, this time …

Our usual podcasting pair becomes a talking troika in this episode, as we are joined by education writer and RPG creator DC Bradshaw. With his help we aim to answer an Ask A GM in which the listener enquires about introducing roleplaying games to an audience of children and how you can tailor your rules and setting towards them. Since DC Bradshaw h…

OK, this trip to London didn't go quite as planned... this episode has been edited in London City Airport while the Til Dice gang awaits the release of the Mailer Daemon from a crime he absolutely definitely did commit.

We may be a little late (and a little tired) but we got there in the end! It's Episode 29 of Til Dice Do Us Part and it starts with a return to the Ask A GM mailbag. The Mailer Daemon might be behaving a bit weird but he still brings us a letter from a player who is finding their GM's constant use of miniatures in every combat irritating. In our an…

This episode it's sequel central at Til Dice Towers - both our sections are flashbacks of sorts to topics we have addressed before.

George might be a little.... blood-lossy, but he's still going to try and run Ailsa through a Quiz segment. We are talking about the choose-your-own-adventure style adventure gamebooks that so many of us grew up with - whether it was Fighting Fantasy books or more Famous Five. It seems everything had game books made of it in the 80s and 90s... or d…

Sometimes this podcast brings you carefully planned items with meticulously honed scripts.... and sometimes we just wing it, as we do in this episode's X Meets Y segment.

Maybe your brain is struggling in the summer heat, but we hope you can still give our latest Quiz a go. This time round, George has prepared a list of monsters where some but not all first originated in Monster Manual V - yes, third edition got up as far as a fifth Monster Manual!

Some of you may have superstitions about the number 13, but we hope this vaguely luck themed episode isn't an ill omen for you!

It's time to crack open the mailbag again as the Mailer Daemon brings us another letter for Ask A GM.

There's a heavy concentration of Arton energy, temporal phenomenon and wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey nonsense going on at Til Dice Do Us Part HQ. Hop into George's rather, erm, unique time machine and join us on an Elevator Pitch for Doctor Who by Cubicle 7. Learn how you can battle a Dalek with only six-sided dice, marvel at how useful running away ca…

Things are a bit manic here at Til Dice Do Us Part Headquarters so we don't have time for much prep - we just have to leap straight into our next Elevator Pitch, even if Ailsa's introduction is.... a bit suspect. But don't let that put you off - we've got a lot to say about The Warren, a game which lets you roleplay out the life of rabbits with a h…

Once again it's a battle of wills as George runs Ailsa through another Quiz of a tabletop persuasion. This time it's a True or False on a list of ten module titles, some of which are genuine pre-packaged adventures available for sale for a variety of high profile systems and others are terrible puns, rephrased titles and just terrible word vomit fr…

No content warning required for this episode as we go back to basics - or is that back to school? Find out in our Elevator Pitch in which we discuss Hellcats & Hockeysticks, a roleplaying game of anarchic schoolgirls in a decidedly British vein. We discuss our experiences of this game - George in running it, Ailsa in playing it - and why we think y…

Content Warning: Sex, Relationships, Sex Work, Pregnancy, Homophobia & Transphobia. No explicit language is used in this episode. Valentine's Day sees us do a slightly more risqué episode of the podcast, such as a section on World Building where we focus on how to be inspired in creating your characters and game worlds by questions of sex, sexualit…

Another Ask a GM question has come to us - from a different source than usual - and it asks us about playing in a game where one character just doesn't gel with the rest. You know the type: the Paladin in a party full of rogues, the loner superhero in the middle of a focused team or the Inch-High Incel in the cast of a socially liberal podcast. How…

Things might be a bit dark right now but the first show of 2021 opens with a bit of a laugh as we do our first Quiz section. This episode's theme for the quiz is Licensed RPGs - George has got a list that includes some genuine games and some balderdash books, but can Ailsa tell them apart? Feel free to play along, and possibly bemoan the games that…

We start the show off with an aid to your imagination via our X Meets Y section, in which we use our TOP SECRET FORMULA to come up with adventure and campaign ideas.

This time round we bring you another Elevator Pitch - if Ailsa can stop making Python references long enough - and introduce you to King Arthur Pendragon, the Arthurian adventure game by the late Greg Stafford.

Our podcast makes its start with the first of many Elevator Pitches to introduce you to games you may not be familiar with. This time it's an introduction to Night Witches, a historical game of female pilots battling Nazis on the Eastern Front of World War II. (Terrible accents optional for you, mandatory for us.) We then move on to our agony aunt …
