An actual play/game design podcast! Hosted by Jessica Crimes and produced by Don't Hurt Birds, on MLG we develop, play, and chat about indie TTRPGs; build all-new games with exciting guests; and all too often ignore a game's rules in favour of a good story - after all, they're more like guidelines.
