New Tekumel Podcast!
There is a new podcast about the World of Tékumel – “The Hall of Blue Illumination”! Named for the Hall of Blue Illumination in the Imperial Palace of Avanthár where The Book of Mighty Imperial Deeds of the Great and Glorious Petal Throne is maintained, the podcast is the creation of Scott Kellogg, James Maliszewski and Victor Raymond. The focus of the podcast is on exploring the creative legacy of Prof. Barker, and the myriad ways to enjoy it as a gamer, reader or just fans of Empire of the Petal Throne and the World of Tékumel. Some topics already in production: the “Fresh Off the Boat” campaign, the importance of languages, how to make Tékumel your own in your game, and a lot more. You can find it at the following places:
All of this just in time for the Tékumel track at U-Con Gaming Convention!
Quick note: I’m happy to see the podcast, and currently listening directly from the website. I tried to subscribe via iTunes, but I’m getting an error when it tries to download.
Unfortunately, there’s also a lot of audio drop-out — possibly all of James’ comments?
But what I did hear is great stuff and I’m looking forward to future episodes.
Joe – check it again; Scott was working to make sure James’ audio track was included. If anyone else encounters this problem, please let Scott know. Thanks!
Yes, I just checked and it seems to have been fixed; also, I was able to download from the iTunes feed. Thanks! I’ll have to listen to it again tomorrow to pick up the bits I missed.
