Yaruki Zero Podcast #1: Opening Remarks
In this installment, I basically talk about my personal history as a gamer, from playing Robotech in the 7th grade up to the present, and a little bit about what I’ve been working on as a wannabe designer. This was an off-the-cuff thing to try out podcasting, and it turned out reasonably well, considering.

Great first podcast, hope you keep it going. I’ve been a long time reader of your webcomic and it was quite interesting to here the voice of the writer.
Hey man, can I just say–release more podcasts? Your cast has been great so far, and I’d love to hear more, whether it’s on Japanese TRPGs or American Indie RPGs or Slime Story, or whatever’s on your mind. Please keep going!

Thanks for listening! I do have a few things I want to do podcasts about, but life has been chaotic as ever. I have a solo podcast that I need to finish up and post, and I have two interviews I’ve been wanting to do that I need to bug the interviewees about. So there is some stuff coming up, if kinda slowly. Stay tuned!
Seconding this. I found your podcasts through RPGnet and have enjoyed them all. I eagerly await new ones.
man it’s so hard to find all the other podcast, this list ends at #7 and you’ve done up to #17. what’s going on?
I’ve been lazy about updating this page, but you can bring up all of the podcasts by clicking the image link on the side (or going here).
thank you :)
this is really good work!
