BDaB#52 – Cuts and Battle Jackets

In our first newly-recorded episode of 2021, we're having a deep educational discussion about the uses and origins of both "Battle Jackets" and "Cuts" in Punk, Metal, Geek and Biker cultures. Join us to learn about the differences in styles and patch formats, and how not to get your ass kicked by a MC when wearing yours.

BDaB Plays: Mothership 03 - The Idiot Cervantes

This is the third and final session of our original Mothership RPG actual play series, which was unfortunately cut short by the COVID-19 quarantine. I'm happy to say that this one really brings the awesome (and the comedy!), and I'd _very much_ like to return to this campaign in the near future.

As an additional note, I had a lot of fun editing this session. I fiddled a bit with adding more sound effects to some of the scenes, and I hope they aren't too distracting. If you like them or also if you don't, please send us feedback letting me know. If they are well-received, I'd like to add some more to later game sessions, maybe some subtle music, and maybe even re-master some of our older play sessions by adding new effects and tunes.

Each of these sessions is also accompanied by some exclusive extra bonus content, released on Patreon and also to our tipping listeners on Pinecast. If you like what you hear in this session and want more, please consider checking those out and kicking us a bit of beer money. And thanks!

BDaB Plays: Mothership 01 - Nightmare Eulogy

Welcome back, dear listeners! This episode kicks off a new series of actual play featuring the excellent indie sci-fi horror RPG, Mothership. These sessions were initially recorded at the very beginning of 2020, but due to the chaos from the onset of the COVID-19 quarantine in the US, NPC was unable to get around to editing them until the end of the year. I don't want to spoil the surprises of the session, so go on and give it a listen!

I don't want to spoil the surprises of the session, so go on and give it a listen!

As a tech note, an unfortunate recording goof resulted in a loss of a small amount of the first session, which we discovered almost immediately afterward. At the beginning of the second session we add an opening re-cap of some of the things that were covered, which I went ahead and moved forward into this file, in order to make the first episode more complete.

Each of these sessions is also accompanied by some exclusive extra bonus content, released on Patreon and also to our tipping listeners on Pinecast. If you like what you hear in this session and want more, please consider checking those out and kicking us a bit of beer money. And thanks!

BDaB#51 – All Geared Up with Nowhere to Ride

In this episode, we discuss the new issue that some of us are facing, which is: getting all geared up for a winter ride, but everywhere now is closed thanks to the plague. Where do we go now? Listen, and find out.

This is another part of the big "2020 Close-out!" backlog rush, and as such the notes here are at a minimum.

BDaB Character Jam 17: Ray Winninger's Underground

In this character jam, we attempt to make characters for Ray Winninger's Underground. " It's like Platoon meets Dead Presidents meets Article 99 meets Captain America Civil War meets Jacob's Ladder." This is a long one, and there's lots of math, but it's a really good episode, and we hope you like it!

BDaB#49 – Horrible Life Choices with MD 2020

Listen closely, dear Listener, to this deep cautionary tale of poor decisions and destroyed souls. The BDaB crew finally (!) delivers on its long-mentioned promise of guiding you through a taste sampler review of all the flavors of MD "Mad Dog" 2020 wine that we could acquire. Why would we inflict this torture upon ourselves? For comedy and science, of course. We drink the Mad Dog, so you don't have to. Don't know what Mad Dog is? Give us a listen and you will very quickly find out!

ALSO! With the return of everyone back to the studio once more, I'm officially declaring this episode to be the beginning of Season 5 of the Podcast. Yes, you are correct, there were only to date three seasons, at least as of the launch of this episode. This is because I didn't have the foresight to tag the last few months as Season 4: The COVID Stretch. I shall be retro-actively doing this shortly!

BDaB#48 – Getting the Band Back Together / Xander for Mayor!

We're getting the Band back together! And by that I mean that the Bikers Dice and Bars crew is finally starting the long-needed process of reassembling our podcast crew to record in-person again. After months of remote recording woes, we now have added safety measures to our studio to enable us to once again meet face to face, and joyfully record like we used to in The Before Times. Hooray!

After months of remote recording woes, we now have added safety measures to our studio to enable us to once again meet face to face, and joyfully record like we used to in The Before Times. Hooray!

As such, this episode is all about the idea of "getting the band back together," be it an old drinking circle, an old gaming group, and even a podcast team. We tell some stories of the groups we would love to reconnect with from out pasts, and talk about ways in which doing so is actually made somewhat easier now that everyone is adapting to an always-online way of life.

Also, this just in: Dr. Xander is running for mayor of Portland 2020! Be sure to write him in on your ballots when you can;t figure out which of the other candidates suck the least.
