Micah leads us through a DG one shot! A rag tag group of people are called into a town in Wisconsin. A siren is going off, warning nearby residents that a nuclear incident is occurring at the nearby decomissioned Kewaunee Power Station, and residents in a 20 mile exclusion zone are warned to leave. These four folks (not read into DG,) are called in because of their expertise, and were not in the exclusion zone at the start of things. A potential terrorist event is happening, and Chad needs to lead the crew inside to ensure that the plant isn't going into a full meltdown...

Micah: GM

Ben: Chad Fisher, Soldier

Dan: Tracy Roberson, Nuclear Engineer

Greg: Lawrence Simpson, Firefighter

Whit: Victoria Carr, Mathematician

It is silly, no?
When a rocket blows
And everybody still wants to fly
Some say a man ain't happy, truly
Until a man truly dies
Oh why, oh why, sign o' the times

Most of Freelance has either escaped the Loss or has resigned themselves to it. But one member remains stuck in between. NRG's husband and son have been sent over the wall. He remains, and needs to join them. (As we start with JOLS Gen) he's got a contract with the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame to raid Paisley Park and get as much Prince memorabilia as he can, but especially the masters that remain in his vault, and due to his specialties, the motorcycle from Purple Rain. With only himself and Nitro left, NRG is going to have to dig deep into the rolodex to get people to go with him...

The 23rd will mark the 5th Anniversary of Technical Difficulties. It has been an amazing five years, and we are incredibly grateful for all of you, for sticking with us. From Aaron, Adam, Ben, Ethan, Greg, Laura, and everyone else who plays with us, we are thankful for everyone who listens.

Adam - GM

Greg - NRG - A hustling mechanic who will do anything to join his loved ones over the wall.

David – Longshot – A dispossessed Canadian that hasn’t let the apocalypse ruin his good nature.

Ethan – Taxey – A street tough hustler/rapper with a new baby and a new purpose.

We've recorded a Table Chatter, and we're dropping it as a bonus episode for Patrons for a limited time!

Ben introduced Aaron and Greg to the Image comic series DIE by Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans. In DIE, a group of six teens got sent to the world of their RPG in the 90s. Only five came back a few years later, and now in 2017, the remnant have returned to their world to confront their pasts and their futures. In addition, Kieron has started to develop an RPG version of the series. We talk the comic, our own pasts with comic books as a whole, the comic and how it interacts with RPGs, and the beta itself.

Kieron's already got over 250 pages of the beta for DIE available for free online, and on itch.io. If you are interested in the comic itself, the first issue is available to read for free on Image's website. DIE does contain depictions of violence, depression, and more. Viewer Discretion is advised (and for the rest of Kieron's work for Image, frankly.)

Aaron and Vince have just opened a Patreon for Kame House Party. They also stream weekly on Twitch. Aaron's also on Thinking Too Hard About Anime with Noah.

If you really want to read about wasps, Ben's paper is available on Biorxiv.

Greg is on Twitter @gjbennett33 and really should stream more on Twitch.

Greg is joined by Ben, Ethan, and Laura, then Ben, Aaron, and Ian to discuss Jesus Freaks. Thoughts behind their PCs and the wild ride we all went through. Thanks for listening, and we hope you enjoyed the campaign.

As an added bonus, Greg had compiled a playlist to listen to while developing the campaign, and it's available on Spotify.

Ben's putting Ethan and Greg through a custom Heart scenario! A pair of delvers are hired to seek and take out a cult leader who is leading people deep into the Heart. Surely two people who have been deeply changed will be perfect for this job, right...?

Ethan: Zenia Rage-Against-The-Night, Alfir Penitent Deadwalker: Someone who is only partially dead, they can walk into the after life, and are haunted by the spectre of the her lover.

Greg: Blackmane, Gnoll Heartsong-Called Cleaver: A former soldier who was a POW of the Spire. He fled into the Heart, and got hungry. The Heart has now changed him deeply, and he wants to stay. He can consume things to gain their power, and has... birthed? Excised? a baby homunculus / clone, Yellowmane.
