  • Separated by time, space, and water with an incredibly odd consistency, our party works to reunite in the Forum Forest, and make a new friend on the way (whom they proceed to freak out in record time).

    Join us as we play the timeless game (Skyrim), discuss Jon’s erstwhile VHS stockpile, and the Spill threatens to take in Spoodge in this sticky mess of an Espersito!

  • On a mission to find the Mothernode, our motley crew come across their first obstacle; a paywall they intend to treat with exactly the level of hostility a paywall deserves.

    We see our first glimpse of Mark Rylance Via Zuckerberg, obscure Community references of an obscure 90s tech thriller abound, and we throw some rope in Session The Third (of Season The Third) of… Espersito!

  • Awakening in The Sim after a massive explosion, our characters receive a mission from god. Well, a god. Well, more of a cult leader. But he’s the god of one of those characters. Who’s in a cult. Confused? You Will be.

    Come along for the ride as we get a bit Dawkins and talk about religions as memes, refuse to face up to our newly found status amongst the dead, refuse to touch grass, and keep up the time honoured tradition of exasperating the quest-giver in the next session of… Hot Beef! I mean.. Esepersito!

  • Wake up babe, the hot new season of Espersito has dropped!

    An accidental family reunion in a rather unusual circumstances brings our merry band together for the adventure of their lives (which may prove to be very short indeed).

    We start as we mean to go on - with ample narrative interruptions, and a fine balance between gravitas and dick jokes in the next… Espersito!

  • Having beaten the ‘mastermind’ of one of the worst birthday celebrations of all time, the team plan to ride off into the sunset, but only after retrieving Dora’s Pinkie form where the sun doesn’t shine.

    We question Dora’s due diligence skills, Jefferson “trouble shoots” a printer, Hudd plans to do combat in the greatest area of all - the small claims court - in this mid season-finale of Espersito!

  • Room 101’s behind them, the birthday party party finally find themselves face to face with their malevolent host both ready to throw down and throw out some terrible one-liners.

    Mike voices his disappointment in our lack of erections (so far), we talk over a (somewhat confused) master-plan, and the GM’s clever use of traps is undone by facing a party consisting entirely of space-rangers in this mid-season’s penultimate… Espersito!

  • From one traumatic experience into several others, our embattled gang find themselves flung through a series of tubes into individual rooms of their own unique hell’s.

    We discuss the boring game of monopoly, if Jon has too many dice, and experience Dumas using his supple nature in front of Rebook’s mother in this emotional battery of an episode of Espersito!

  • Freshly escaped from one room, and safe from one set of horrors, the party finds themselves in a mysterious corridor at the centre of the moon, and strides out to find a new set of horrors of their own making…

    We lament combat strategies that could have been, endure the ramblings of old men, make yet more silly decisions involving explosives, and ask ourselves the question “I am Darren?”... in the war-crime ridden next episode of Espersito!

  • As the party travels, weak and weary, pondering Dora’s quaint and curious celebratory decisions… a noise comes, gently slapping. Slapping on the airlock door. Could it be the sound of a lonely bearded man, morosely pleasuring himself in the corner? Or perhaps, something worse? Some hideous ‘ballsack nosferatu’ squelching out of the shadows?

    Out of the two, I know which one I’d prefer.

    Come along with us as we have fun with dynamics to avoid the galactic war crime that is space hay, try to justify mechanics checks because no-one knows how to work a computer, and find out just how powerful a second wind can be… in the latest Espersito!

  • Diving deeper into Dora’s twisted birthday games, our party are faced with puzzles, ‘party favours’, and an unfortunate amount of urine.

    Jefferson finds himself triggered by high explosives, cake biopsies are performed, we discuss tether fingers are ‘sticky’ or ‘tricky’, and one of the party finds themselves briefly the biggest penis in the galaxy as the birthday celebrations descend into greater decadence in the next session of Espersito!

  • Finding themselves with no option but to enter the cabin on the face of a desolate moon, the party finds themselves descending into a party. But are they motivated by concern? Or Revenge?

    Revenge. It’s definitely revenge.

    Wasps make whimsical purrs, we forget vital class features, and Mike uses his newfound GM rolling powers to bully Jon as we enter the mind of a madwoman

  • Welcome back, as we embark on a mini campaign / side-adventure / way for us to keep the RPG withdrawal shakes at bay whilst one of our number was on paternity leave.

    Join our cast of familiar faces (unless this is your first episode, in which case don't worry; you’ll soon get sick of them) as they tool up and embark on an adventure to… attend a birthday party?

    Characters ignore all childhood advice and take sweets from an old man, Dora’s daddy issues rear their ugly heads again, and it turns out Mike’s natural 1s are highly contagious in this return to mid-season Espersito!

  • With the galaxy saved by a particularly belligerent band of misfits, our bold adventurous tie off loose ends, say their goodbyes, and try and swindle as hefty a severance package as possible from the galactic powers.
    The crew of the Golden Rose head off into the golden sunset, in the finale for Season 2 of…. Espersito!

  • Deep into the heart of the crucible, our group of violent problem solvers come face to tentacled visage with the monstrosity threatening everything the crew of The Golden Rose have tried to save.
    We’re in the legally distinct endgame now. In combat with the BBEG in SPAAACE, distortion dice a-plenty are rolled, Rebook gets very chilly, Dumas gets very sassy, and Dora finds out that winners do do drugs whilst experiencing the revenge of the nerds in the penultimate tale from this season of… Espersito!

  • As the team make their way through enemies and into the heart of the Crucible, they must battle a horror from Hudd’s history.
    Through horrendous ice puns, ill advised assaults on architecture., and potential copyright strikes, the crew of The Golden Rose must find their way through polished, alien corridors, for the chance to see if Dumas has mastered the art of standing so incredibly still, he can become invisible to the five piercing eyes of a cosmic abomination.
    Come along for a wild ride, as we discuss if maybe time’s just a construct of human perception (or an illusion created by GM machinations), we try and work out what Jon’s DM look means and what horrendous opinions Rebook’s drone has, and Tom K rages against Tim Burton, for another bout in the ring of Espersito!

  • As battle rages around the Golden Rose, our incidental heroes must board The Crucible to find the force which threatens the galactic core.
    Join us as we discuss how docking is a delicate procedure, Tom learns he can't science everything, and elevator buttons blindside Jon again, in this elevator-music backed strip-tease of an episode of Espersito!

  • With plans for the assault on the Crucible finalised, the Golden Rose strikes forth towards the Eldori fleet with allies in tow.
    We bring up the adamantine bullets again, and get confused by alternate meanings of docking and Google frottaging getting Mike in trouble with his girlfriend.
    Dumas finds a NSFW way to keep calm before the battle ahead, we bastardise some LOTR quotes, and Jon loses some of his shit (and his mouse) after we mix up Star Wars and Star Trek in our nerd-cred demolishing edition of Espersito!

  • With Korchev dead and the fanatical Eldori Seventh Fleet blockading the crucible, our amateur negotiators must make a plan to attack the Xenoterum, and save the core.
    Join us, dear listener, as we flippantly discuss Mike’s potential real-life demise, get belligerent whilst levelling up, and discuss the Fabulous Spider-wank!
    Prepare to broadcast in all known languages (including Welsh), as we’re made very uncomfortable by Dora’s daddy issues, in the next… Espersitisode!(?)

  • Two starfeets, both alike in dignity(In fair Silrayne Arc, where we lay our scene),From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,Where uncivil blood makes uncivil hands unclean.From forth the fatal loins of these two foesA pair of star-crossed lovers take their life;Whose misadventured piteous overthrowsDoth with their death bury the galaxy’s strife.
    Also, we tell an unfathomable cosmic horror to go f**k itself,

    in this story of woe,
    and Pax, and Korchev,
    and Espersito
