Episode 24.5: Alarums & Excursions with Jon Peterson

Save for Half is back with another sideshow, this time featuring the return of the Arch-RPG Historian himself Jon Peterson! He joins the Halflings for a discussion of the seminal D&D fanzine Alarums & Excursions, and we discuss the first five issues of that APA; now available online as pdfs. Articles, filk songs, and recipes are discussed with varying degrees of efficacy on this somewhat tardy sideshow…

No D&Ds were harmed in the making of this sideshow, not even by Complete Warlocks!

    Just saw this podcast. I was a contributor to A&E for a year or so. Starting with issue #55 and ending at #67. More than a few people from our local campaign wrote articles for it. I haven’t gone back to read what I wrote, I’m almost afraid to see how pretentious I might have been 40 years ago!
