Hey Gang! This is my complete conversation with Chris Perrin from Heroic Journey Publishing. Chris is a really interesting guy and we had a great talk about Indie Role-Playing Games, starting a game company, food and just who the heck Diana Jones is. It just could NOT be contained in the 20 minutes we had to spare in Episode 8, so here it is as an “Extra”. (For those who listened to Episode 8 and don’t want to hear the start of this again, fast forward to about the 22 minute mark and you should be good to go.) I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I did doing it.

Full show notes will be forthcoming as I may not have given Scott enough lead-time on this one.
