Save or Die Podcast 99: "What is the OSR, anyway?"

We talk a lot about "Old School" in this Podcast, be it a Renaissance or Revolution. But what does it mean? The three hosts are joined once again by intrepid author Jon Peterson as we consider such questions. We give our opinions about this movement and what it means to each of us, as well as (perhaps) the hobby in general.

It's all here at: saveordie.info

You need to interview me. Renaissance my foot, I'm playing this game the same way I always did. After 42 years, why is it still fun?

Hey, @gronanofsimmerya. Jon Peterson mentions you a few times in the podcast. The title was perhaps misleading, as I think one of the hosts acknowledged. The show was really focused more on "historical" old school play (D&D 1974-76 among others) than on contemporary controversies such as we've seen on the blogs recently.

[Koren n'Rhys]

I don't believe I've ever heard a podcast interview with you, Michael. That would be great!

Give him a call, Mike!

[dizzysaxophone]

I'd definitely be interested in listening to an interview with @gronanofsimmerya!

This was an interesting listen though! I've listened through twice already (mainly because I was multi-tasking the first time and wondered how much I missed). I really enjoyed getting to hear Jon Peterson discuss everything with y'all.
