Character sheets, skill rolls, pushing the roll, spending luck, sanity loss, and what combat really means when you’re just a fragile human in a world of cosmic horrors. With Ross Bryant, featuring Paula Deming (Graveyards of Arkham, Call of Cthulhu Live), cuppycup (Ain't Slayed Nobody), Call of Cthulhu writer Scott Dorward, and Chaosium's own Bridgett Jeffries.[MEDIA=youtube]Vc59yZN0Ec0[/MEDIA]<h4>What is Push the Roll with Ross Bryant?</h4>Each story begins with an audience inspired twist. Patreon supporters submit imaginative episode titles, and the players at the table roll dice to randomly choose one as a narrative start point. Then halfway through, Bryant “pushes the roll,” adding a second randomly selected title that upends the episode’s plot in real time. The result is unpredictable, character‑first horror told at the speed of improv.[MEDIA=youtube]dqocbgZBzC0[/MEDIA]Push the Roll is designed for both newcomers and long‑time fans of tabletop roleplaying games. Each 3-episode series stands alone, rules are explained as needed, and the format rewards drop‑in listening without giving up depth for regular listeners.
