About this episode

The episode features an interview with Matt Ross discussing his creative work and the new game Sun Rot.

One of the highlights of Adepticon 2026 for me was venturing into the grime, grunge, and grim darkness of the Smashbash booth where I purchased strange bits while a crowd chanted, "TEETH, TEETH, TEETH". It was the retail experience I'd always wanted. It will heal America. Creator Matt Ross took a few moments away from his nefarious habits to speak to me about what powers his creative empire of Deeply Weird Stuff. We talked about the joys of physical miniatures catalogues, kit bashing, and what went into the creation of his new game Sun Rot . Equal parts miniatures skirmish, RPG, and board game, Sun Rot looks like an incredible amount of fun to me and I can't wait to get it when it releases next month. Pre-orders are up now.
