• 67 - Making a Magical Gambler in Deadlands
    Feb 5 2025

    Ladies, Gentlemen, and Nonbinaries, we present to you, the game that won Wild West Winter the last seasonal theme poll, Deadlands by Pinnacle Entertainment Group! We've resisted our urge to make a gambling cat long enough, so now, we have one who gambles with magical forces! Also he's named Tintin because they can't come for us for doing that anymore!

  • 66. Making a - Wait, Is That a Real Zorro Movie? In Zorro
    Jan 22 2025

    Happy new year, everyone! On this episode of Wild West Winter, we take a look at a somewhat simpler RPG than we'd normally go for, the Zorro RPG by Gallant Knight Games. We uh... We also spent a larger amount of time focusing on a fake movie trailer than we did the cat for this week. Sorry, it's not normally like this, if you're new here.

  • We Lost Episode 65.
    Jan 8 2025

    This episode WOULD have been about Inevitable: A Doomed Arthurian Western by Soul Muppet Games. Unfortunately, the only thing we could salvage from it was the character sheet. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Nov 13 2024

    Some of you might recognize Absurdia from Monster Hour's second season. You might also recognize our guest from the same place. He made both of them! And now he's here with us, making a cat who's been through it, and gained the power of speech because he absolutely HAD to tell EVERYONE what he knows.
