Episode description

Adam Vass and Will Jobst are random entries. We’re in a treasure appendix and you always fudge the numbers a little bit to get us. In this episode, we generate an episode of the Brain Trust podcast. Will chats about their new game, shipwrights, available today at https://willjobst.itch.io/shipwrights. Adam propagates some mechanics from his strategy game draft Ossuary. I think this is how you play solitaire: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuJiUscfjQw.

Want to generate your own episode of the Brain Trust podcast?

Start by talking about (d6): 

  1. the show itself
  2. small horror of quarantine
  3. some shit from the discord
  4. anecdote about entertainment
  5. doing a bit
  6. roll twice and use both

Modified by our recent release (d4):

  1. this discord has ghosts in it
  2. a guide to casting phantoms in the revolution
  3. kickstarter
  4. faker shit

Then, take a break and then make a game about (d4):

  1. media property
  2. a joke
  3. a suggestion
  4. a mechanic

Cross reference with quality (d3):

  1. farts game
  2. serviceable game
  3. lovely good game

Do this a couple times and then say "brain emoji, handshake emoji"
