Greetings from the Cheesecake Factory in Doomtown.

The American West – and its violent colonization – assumes a large part of American fiction. This colonizing violence influences most RPGs: if not in the game’s mechanics, then in the narratives that the settings seek to inspire. This is tacitly true of all RPG settings to some degree.

The podcast is here.
