Episode description

    In this episode Saul and Jolene discuss the difference and problems that arise from the difference between Player and Character knowledge.  Depending on the genre and the player ,  players are going to push the limit of what a character can know.  But there are times when a character will have be more knowledgable than the player does.  
    Saul and Jolene cite several examples on how a player espoused their character's knowledge on certain subjects.  In one example the character was successful and play continued in another an argument followed and the game session ended early.
    Saul and Jolene also discuss what to do when these issues come up as a player and as a GM.
