If you're unfamiliar, the @podcastjam is a collaborative event hosted through our Discord server, intended to help bridge the gap between listening to podcasts and creating one!

Over the next couple months, teams are collaborating to write, voice, edit, and make music for the pilot episode of a new podcast. It's been incredibly fun so far, and, once again, not to late to join in on the party!

Feel free to check out our website for more information, or head right on over to the Discord. Hope to see you there!

The JonMina episode is here! Late for Christmas (Scrooge and the three spirits are also there), early for Dracula Daily - ah well, enjoy.

Don't forget to sleep on your neck at a weird angle tonight. I love you

I don't know if you've ever been to Paris before, but I recommend going. Normally, I would not have gone, but I made a really rich enemy on IRC and he spent a lot of money to have me kidnapped and brought to his home country. While I was there, I got to try a bunch of restaurants (they're hostage-takers, not barbarians) and came away impressed. Something was missing, though, and herein is my genius idea.

In Paris you can get any kind of food. Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese, Thai: and it's all good. All of it. You literally can't find a bad restaurant. At one point, I walked into a convenience store and got a plate of one-Euro nachos that made me cry at the beauty of the arrangement.

Everyone around me was taking this for granted. Having lived there for years, their quality threshold had crept invisibly upwards until nothing could impress again. They needed something to re-calibrate their sense of truly bad food. That's where I came in. After I got kicked out of the country, I decided to come back with some investor support. I can burn cereal, usually by roasting it gently with a blowtorch on the top of an old gas can. Investors were easy to find.

Our first week of opening was tremendous. Hardened Parisians were discovering their first taste of truly incompetent food. The novelty of it all had captured them. There's just one problem, though: after making an entire lunch rush's first of poorly-cut toast in reheated canned soup, my cooking skills began to improve from sheer experience. The complaints began to change tone. You got too good, they cried, you're not the same bad chef we once loved. Again, I was deported.

I looked out the window of the plane as it left De Gaulle, staring down onto the beautiful streets of Paris. Down there, I imagined, real gourmets were now eating food out of trash cans out of desperation to recapture what they had experienced with me. If there is one nice thing to be said, I now have two Michelin Stars here in my homeland of Canada, where my consommé-and-grilled-cheese recipe is now so much better than most of our restaurants that it made the Prime Minister Herself come and spit in my face for ruining the economy, before awarding me an Order of Canada. It's not the same.

In which I play a brilliant sports medic and prosthetist AND a patient with terrible bacne and an even more terrible family, and there are simply so many lube jokes

Please take your seats in the Studio

for a rare completely standalone episode of Merely Roleplayers that's a little bit Carry On Doctor.

It’s time to push the boundaries of modern medicine, and maybe to make out with a bitter rival in the on-call room!
