  • Fancy New SBN Patreon Page

    Fancy New SBN Patreon Page

    Check out our fancy new Patreon page! Patreon has rolled out a new design that improves the presentation of creator profiles and content.

    We’ve also added a low entry point reward level ($1 per episode) that allows patrons to submit priority questions for any interviews we do in the future. Additionally, we’ve set some new goals to show what types of things your support can help fund including making more goodies such as more dice and bookmarks available, better recording equipment to help us make high quality audio recordings for discerning ears, and more.

    Don’t forget, we’re still offering the Ace! Wild Dice, too. After this month, we’ll be cutting the availability of the of the single die offerings to put some of them at a higher reward level for additional dice.

    We’re eager to know what you think of our new setup, goals, and reward levels, so feel free to drop a comment.

  • New SBN Podcast: Simply Savage!

    New SBN Podcast: Simply Savage!

    The Savage Bloggers Network presents Simply Savage, a new Savage Worlds podcast in which Ron and Kristian will discuss ways to keep the Savage Worlds tabletop role-playing game fast, furious, and fun!

    In Simply Savage, Ron and Kristian will talk about a chosen topic for approximately 15 to 20 minutes in length, sticking to our short format you’ve come to love. The podcast will release as topics come to mind, but no more than weekly and only if we really feel we have something worth talking about (we don’t want to waste your precious limited free time).

    Current Podcast Subscriptions

    The SBN Podcast previously contained the main SBN podcast episodes as well as the occasional SBN Hangouts on Air. This will remain the same, and Simply Savage will be added into the mix, too.

    Podcast Title Changes

    To distinguish the content, we will be modifying the titles of the episodes to indicate with which show each podcast release is associated. With that in mind, we’ll be explicitly naming the default SBN podcast episodes with a new podcast name–SBN News! SBN News episode numbers will continue with the current progression as well.

    Separate Feed Subscriptions

    For those who are only interested in specific shows, we’ve made available separate feeds for SBN News, Simply Savage (when the first episode releases), and SBN Hangouts on Air. That means you can subscribe to the content in which you’re most interested.

    For a list of all subscription options, visit our podcast subscription page where you’ll find links to the full SBN Podcast feed as well as the separate show feeds.
