Darker Days Radio

The first episode focused on World of Darkness Online! Mike reveals that he's been cheating on the World of Darkness. Chris introduces listeners to City of the Damned: Manchester and Venice Unmasked. Mark tries to influence the Consensus and create Mage 20th Anniversary. The triple threat goes through way too much news with more tangents than a Pooka on speed. Mark follows this up with a Secret Frequency about "The Hum," a strange phenomenon found throughout the entire world. Following this our new WoD Online correspondent Harlequin of wodnews.net gives us all the facts about the upcoming MMO and some speculation. It's an exciting segment and the most comprehensive summary of World of Darkness online so far.

Mark and Mike hit it off with some White Wolf news and the triumphant return of the Secret Frequncy, discussing the Dyatlov Pass incident. We take a look back at the Old World of Darkness and talk about everything. Absolutely everything. Vampire? Obviously. Werewolf? Totes. Mage? Duh. Wraith? Heck yeah! Changeling? Sure. Dark Ages? Got it. We'd go on with Hunter, Kindred of the East, Mummy, Demon and Orpheus but our vocabulary ran out and you get the picture. www.facebook.com/DarkerDaysRadio darkerdaysradio@gmail.com

We were just kidding about the Season 1 Episode Guide being the only update this fortnight! We were in no way coerced by WGPRN's new benevolent tyrant Vince into putting out another episode. Mike flys solo as he brings listeners up to speed on Darker Days and WGPRN network news. The real meat of this episode is a review of World of Darkness: Midnight Roads, a sourcebook for stories on the road, with story hooks for mortals and supernatural splats alike.
