We'd like to thank:


The Chicago Podcast Cooperative. We recommend you have a listen to Hello from The Magic Tavern. If you haven’t heard of them, here's what to expect...


One day in Chicago, Arnie fell through a magical dimensional portal behind a Burger King and found himself in a strange magical land called “Foon.” He is still somehow getting a weak wi-fi signal from the Burger King so he hosts a weekly podcast from the tavern the Vermilion Minotaur, interviewing monsters, wizards and adventurers.
