This week, we're having a chat about Appalachia with our friend and West Virginia native Kelly West. Join us as we discuss the history and culture of Appalachia and some ways to incorporate it as a setting in your home games. Please excuse the quality of Kelly's audio. I cleaned it up as best I could, and hopefully the content of our conversation overrides any unpleasantness with the audio quality.

Submissions for the Solo But Not Alone 5 charity bundle are now open! If you have a solo game (or a game that can be played solo) that you would like to submit, follow this link to the official Google form: https://forms.gle/zcFV3vta8cdW5ofN9

We have officially left the smoldering corpse of Twitter. Thank you to everyone who followed us over there, but the platform has gotten too toxic and opportunistic for us to keep an account, even one that's mostly inactive. We're trying to get back into more regular social media use over on our BlueSky account, which you can find on our Linktree or here: https://bsky.app/profile/undercommontaste.bsky.social

Our website is live! Head on over to undercommontaste.com to find links to all of our social media, streaming sites, Patreon, Itch store, and Discord.

Our theme song is Massacre Anne, written and performed by Mary Crowell, and used with permission. You can find Mary's work online at marycrowell.bandcamp.com, or on Patreon at patreon.com/DrMaryCCrowell.

Our logo was illustrated by David Sutherland. You can find David's work online at instagram.com/wilex_73, or on DeviantArt at deviantart.com/davidsutherland.

This week, we're talking about the Old Gods of Appalachia roleplaying game by Monte Cook Games. Join us as we discuss the inner workings of the Cypher system and how it has been modified to run games set in 1930s Appalachia.

To pick up a copy of OGoA, you can visit the Monte Cook website (https://www.montecookgames.com/store/product/old-gods-of-appalachia-roleplaying-game/), or check your local game store.

This week, we're taking a break from our regular episodes for a one-shot game of The Lost Bay. Join us as we try to find our way through the darkness and out of the mall.

Special thanks to Kris for writing and running the adventure, and to Danny for coming on to play with us. Kris didn't have any media links he wanted to provide, but Danny can be found with the handle @dannyrmendoza on Twitter and Instagram.

Additional thanks to Iko for organizing the All Flesh Is Surplus jam, and to David (Verdant Core) for managing the signup sheet for all of the different games played during the jam. You can find more information about the jam, including a sale which runs until November 1st, at thelostbaystudio.com.

All ambience and background audio is sourced from Tabletop Audio: tabletopaudio.com.

We used a bit more profanity than normal during this game, so listener discretion is advised.
