I now have a Twitter page (CommonDialog) where I will be posting frequent updates about gaming, writing, and what I am doing.

Please add me and I’ll keep you updated on the show.

Okay, this is a special edition of the podcast where I pretty much get hypergeeky about Shadow Chronicles.  I am pretty excited and I hope that everyone gets a feel for the game from my rambles.

Per the latest press release, the podcast is slated for a January release!  It looks like the first podcast will debut in January.  Look for it then!

The Echoes from the Rifts® Podcast wants to give Palladium fans another way to talk about the game system and books we all love.  So the podcast is looking for content from you!  Do you have a story, adventure idea, module, or other unique content for Rifts®, Nightbane®, Beyond the Supernatural®, Heroes Unlimited®, or any other Palladium Books property?  Please send it as either a text file or an audio file.

The best part about submitting an audio file is that you get to have it sound exactly like you want.  If not, then I’ll read it and if I have a face for radio, my voice ain’t much better.

Have questions about making an audio file?  No worries, I’ll be more than happy to point you in the right direction to where you can download some killer sound files, some tips for recording, and can answer any other questions you might have.  Just shoot an email to theshow@echoesfromtherifts.com!
