Feedback-

We got a super cool email from Jon’s player Steve.
… So here’s the question:  Should I stop listening to something I enjoy (CoC podcasts) in the hopes of even more enjoyment in another context (real-life gaming)?  Or does it even matter because scenarios and facts/monsters are always different every time through because keepers and players are different?  How do I stop worrying and learn to love the Shoggoth? …
