Goonies Part 5

What an adventure! Sometimes you're working hard to spin what the dice give you into a satisfying story. And sometimes the dice just give you gifts. This episode definitely falls into the latter camp.

Goonies is in a way our biggest episode so far. Rogue One was just as long, but that was only three players. To manage five players for such a long campaign was somewhat exhausting but tremendously rewarding. Hope it was as fun to listen to as it was to play.

We're back in two weeks with something completely different: License to Kill!

There were a lot of elements of backstory that didn't get explored (there often are), but I really like where we ended up: In the story we told, there isn't any literal relation, it's just a metaphor that deals with the question of what happens when friendships are divided by geography, and literalizes the choice that they have to stay friends. Now, it's a very loudly obvious metaphor in this version, but that reads right to me in an 80's children's movie.

Haha, I gotta remember to tell that story in an upcoming episode.

I'd also like know how the Unis and Goonies were related.

I'd really like to know Paulo's family story that was the deep cut.
