Brian and Elliot sit down with Tim Platt, a comedian, musician, and co-founder of the actual play podcast Rude Tales of Magic. We discuss Tim stepping into the GM chair for the latest Rude Tales series: Blue Kindness High, how Tim defines the comedic voice of his own work within and outside of the show, and why playing highschoolers can lead to better comedy in actual play.

Talk of the Table is hosted by Elliot Davis and Brian Flaherty.
