Another wee episode where Dr Sir Paul Mitchener and I examine the Panel's conclusions from our Newcastle episode where Tasha and I tied for the outright scenario but Jim managed to get his "Big Wow" moment in.

In this episode we update Paul Mitchener - the man behind Liminal - on just how badly we mangle his game! We talk a little about what we've said, how the vote went and occasionally ask him to break a deadlock and make sure the narrative goes foward nicely. As these go on we may get into a more detailed discussion about structure, narrative and inter-connectedness, but for the moment it's just two gents having a natter. Hope you enjoy it! --- Send in a voice message:...

Welcome again to another new loop or addition for the Frankenstein's Role Playing game podcast - MITCH'S CORNER! Where I get to talk to the creator of Liminal, Paul "The Tweedmeister" Mitchener, about the most recent episode of the main podcast.
