  • Two Space Hoppers and a Grape - Its Good to be Bard Podcast 42
    Jan 19 2026

    Howdy Y'all, and welcome back to our actual play sessions for the Bard Boys. This time out we are returning to that sprawling western adventure with the game Clink, from Technical Grimoire. It's a game where you build your character by filling out flashbacks to help you flip coins.

    No dice needed here, only coins. Once again no spoiler alert this time out. Ollie has devised a game where our brave adventurers set out to look for a fallen comrade. Stupidity abounds this week. So join Ollie, both Daves, Lee, Graeme and Matt, Yeee Haaaaaah.

    WARNING – this episode contains an array of terrible accents. If you wish to report us to the accent police, please contact them at itsgoodtobebard@gmail.com

    You can find the game on the TG website - https://www.technicalgrimoire.com/clink - and on DrivethruRPGhttps://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/236659/clink-rpgAs always you can contact us at the sites below or email us onitsgoodtobebard@gmail.com

  • The Guano hits the fan - Its Good to be Bard Podcast 41
    Jan 7 2026

    Welcome back to our actual play for Blades in the Dark. Published by Evil Hat Productions, it's a game that descends quickly into madness. No plot, no spoiler alert this week as there is no written up adventure, just increasingly desperate cries from the GM and the players. 5 players, 1 increasingly desperate GM. Hysteria ensues.

    Don't forget, you can find the game on the Evil Hat website - https://evilhat.com/ - and at any good role playing shops. And the recently released Blades expansion (Deep Cuts) is also available. We're building up to the finale of Blades soon and you can find all three previous parts at the links below.

    As always you can contact us at the sites below or email us on itsgoodtobebard@gmail.com and ask us questions, make comments and interact with the team.

  • I'm Your Nemesis (Xmas Special) - Its Good to be Bard Podcast 40 (Marvel Superheroes)
    Dec 23 2025

    IIIIITTTTTTTTTT'SSSSSS CHRISTMASSSSssssss. That's right, we're back with another Christmas special for TSR's defunct Marvel Superheroes game. 6 players, 4 GMs, suggestions to pull from the hat and a whole heap of utter nonsense. It doesn't get more bonkers than this.

    If you want to know what it's all about – catch our facebook explanation herehttps://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=pfbid02HW3FqJLfDwSW1CNiMtrkyzqRZY2FEBVodHy38F3caWDhqFqAK6xRPQnam3qP6yBpl&id=61556697187082&__cft__[0]=AZbnI4nOo9iSkDWT5lGC5OYTK-NKkFQWRy3GMsxPJ6MUKXyYlL3YJlKgGnngHWhlme04dj7bmkaqoZoFPJHt-WqMgVTgSkGv_vY794oK0tX4FNJwD0JC62IqhJArTrIyFffhdcxTYTs5_wIuPXlq_7VsuFtbTJVRDanVQBavNP9aaii8KjOrDvz0vvwn2QJQdhPtFRNLL82ZU7HQ4kOCvgHt&__tn__=%2CO%2CP-R

    Anyway – four GMs, Graeme, Dave, Ollie and Matt will battle vainly to pull a story together for Lee and another Dave, but will we manage to make a coherent plot out of it all. I will go out on a limb and say “unlikely”.

    Please feel free to check out other pages such as https://classicmarvelforever.com/cms/- the full page of classic Marvel roleplaying, and https://www.facebook.com/Classicmarvelsuperheroes/- a run down of 30 years of game sessions for TSR Marvel.

    No Spoiler alert this week. You can't spoil this chaos but if you want to see Chuck Norris, Dr Doom and Paddington Bear in the same adventure, then you'd better get weaving.

    TSR is no longer available to buy so classic marvel site above contains downloads of the game, but you can find copies online or at several good role playing shops, and some rubbish ones as well.

  • The Racist Owl - Its Good to be Bard Podcast 39
    Dec 15 2025

    We're back in the Shire for this weeks roleplaying session of The One Ring (by Free League Publishing). Our three intrepid Halflings (Dave, Dave and Ollie) put Graeme, our GM through his paces and have a thoroughly entertaining hour of fun. It's all walking, pies, walking, ham, complaining, tea, walking, buns. You get the picture. Graeme is now on sedatives, hopefully he'll be fully fit for part 5.

    Spoiler alert – you may ruin the adventure if you listen in and intend to play. It's doubtful you will recognise the adventure, but you never know.

    Don't forget, you can find the game on the Free League Website and at any good role playing shops, and several rubbish ones as well. We've given The One Ring some clog recently and you can find all three previous parts at the links below.

  • One Man & His Duck - Its Good to be Bard Halloween Part 2 - Podcast 37
    Nov 2 2025

    Welcome back to Its Good to be Bard roleplaying sessions. It's Halloween again (Cue Spooky Music) so once again we are back with Session 2 of our Call of Cthulhu game as promised. A special double session podcast of Chaosiums free to play, The Lightless Beacon, which can be found at the link later in the description. Naturally, this means we have a SPOILER alert for the scenario.

    WARNING – the sound quality in this Podcast is poorer than we would have liked but we couldn't just bin it as it's part of our big experiment, a special podcast as we split the game into TWO groups and play the game twice. How does each group handle the same reasonably straightforward game? Do they do exactly the same or will we end up in an entirely different situation?


    Don't forget, you can find Call of Cthulhu at the Chaosium website here

    https://www.chaosium.com/call-of-cthulhu-rpg/?srsltid=AfmBOooR0A9uzylTGUQFNEd0uCL1ukTk5CTBldozdeTx_F2pOvzxp47m

    and can also be found at any good role playing shops, and several rubbish ones as well. So join the Bard Boys for Part One of our Halloween Special with the redoubtable Graeme, Matt & Dave as they dip a toe into the water.

    As always you can contact us at the sites below or email us onitsgoodtobebard@gmail.com and ask us questions, make comments and interact with the team.
