This was another rather lengthy discussion, but a good one. Initially, we had two topics set out — whether video games need to grow up, and the impact of Dungeons & Dragons on the video game industry. Disparate topics, but we found a way to relate them, which made for a much more cohesive and blended discussion than I was honestly expecting we’d have. Click here to listen!

As always: if you’d like to recommend anyone for a shout-out, send us an email…which you can also do to suggest podcast topics, offer commentary or criticism about podcast episodes, and/or to volunteer your time as either an occasional or regular contributor to podcast sessions.

As well, if you haven’t already, you should totally sign on with the Ultima Dragons group on Facebook, or with the Ultima Dragons community on Google+. The Facebook group is easily the larger and more lively, but that just means that the Google+ one needs a few more members posting content there on a more regular basis. And if you’re on Twitter, don’t forget to contribute to the #udic hashtag.

Finally, there’s the Ultima Codex Patreon. A $5 pledge that will get you access to Spam Spam Spam Humbug episodes the day before they go live here on the site. And if you contribute, you’ll be helping me both maintain and — with sufficient funding — expand the server infrastructure of the Codex to better deliver all the things you come looking for thereat.
