255: Listener Suggestions
Added 2023-02-28 09:30:31 +0000 UTChttps://blasphemoustomes.com/2023/02/28/listener-suggestions/
Late last year, we used Discord and Twitter to ask our listeners what kinds of things they’d like to hear us discuss. The response was overwhelming and we now have a massive list of possible topics. Although these suggestions were exceptional, there are a good number we’d struggle to turn into complete episodes. Rather than ignore these, we’ve decided to go through the replies and see what we can address succinctly.
We barely scratched the surface of the suggestions this time. As a result, we plan to revisit this list again soon in a follow-up episode.
Please do let us know if you have any suggestions of your own. We are always hungry for ideas. And cheese. But mostly ideas.
Thank you to Alixo, R’lyeh Scary and PTroilus on our Discord server for the topics we discuss in this episode.

Coming Soon: Re-issue of The Blasphemous Tome issue 4A
Matt has been hard at work again, laying out issue 4A into our new layout, and the PDF and Print-On-Demand should be available to backers at the start of March 2023. Issue 4A was first published in 2018 as issue 4, and was followed six months later by issue 4.5 (a PDF only release at the time), which we're going to re-issue as 4B. In retrospect we could have made the numbering simpler!
Submissions for The Blasphemous Tome issue 11
While the next issue of The Blasphemous Tome is still a few months away, we’re currently open for submissions. If you have a short article, poem or piece of flash fiction of up to 500 words, or some artwork (black and white or colour) that you think we’d like, we’d love to see it! You can send them to submissions@blasphemoustomes.com
Submissions for this issue will be open until the end of April 2023.
The Blasphemous Tome is the fully licenced Call of Cthulhu fanzine we produce for Patreon backers of the podcast.
Matt on Into the Darkness
Matt has been running more games for our good friends at Into the Darkness. In particular, he’s run a few scenarios from The Blasphemous Tome recently, including “Of This Men Shall Know Nothing” from issue 6 and “Educement” from issue 10.

Comments
Interesting. I know HPL was into publishing small press booklets, so that would have been one way for sure. Also, the radio of course. And there were newsreels in cinemas that might be 'used' for spreading the word. I guess cultists, I mean, people, have always found a way! - Paul

2023-03-01 10:31:42 +0000 UTCOn your suggestion, in Episode, I have gone in the electronic basement and listened to the Episode from Ought-Thirteen. Good information there, but it has sparked question. Is there a Cultist's Guide to Social Media Through the Ages? As you minister to your minions, I mean, fans how would the podcast be seen in a Cultist environment? In the '20s (in the early 20th) we had news papers and early radio. In the '20s now we have gone from Google to Discord.
