Welcome to the Saving Throes podcast! This is my Tabletop role-playing game podcast, part of the Red Rooster's Gaming Coop network where I talk gaming and gaming culture every week. Each episode will feature a topic or theme along with my take on current happenings in the world of tabletop role-playing games and semi regular updates on the games I am currently involved with, or new games or products I have come across.
This episode is going live on the first day of Gen Con! I decided to do an episode talking about its overall history and the impact it has had on the TTRPG industry. It has grown in much the same way that D&D grew from it's inception - they both started out as a small niche shared passion project, and grow almost uncontrollably over the years and is now one of the biggest gaming cultural touchstones in North America. Tune in to hear about the history of Gen Con and some of my own personal memories of the convention over the years.
If you would like to reach out, you can reach me at redroostersgamingcoop@gmail.com - I would love to hear from you!
