Roll to Save
Roll to Save is a monthly(ish!)podcast dedicated to RPGs from yester-year. Episodes will cover the history of old roleplaying games, their backgrounds and their systems, as well as round table discussions where we prattle on about our fondest memories. We also do a variety of actual play episodes and occasionally interview authors.
