Hearing Yourself is Weird

Short post today, Dear Readers…

For those unaware, we do a podcast recording of my Tuesday group campaign. It’s a lot of fun, and we call ourselves The Inglorious Ingrates.

It’s a really fun bunch of players and we have a really good time playing.

As of now, we’ve recorded four episodes, not including our test recording of an “Episode 0” (the previews of these are, by the way, available to our Premium Subscribers, and will be available for everyone in October when we launch our YouTube channel Your Dork Materials!).

The thing is, I have a really poor memory. It’s a Multiple Sclerosis thing. Although I take good notes, I sometimes go back and listen to old episodes in order to be reminded of what happened in the previous session.

As a result, I have to listen to myself speak. This is the strangest thing in the world for me.

I listen to all of my gaffes, the times I stutter, and all of the other things that I say.

To put it plainly, I am no Matt Mercer, nor am I a Chris Perkins.

But I don’t try to be. I just try to be me.

And I sound weird.

Yes, it makes me a little self-conscious.

But, you know what Dear Readers? I still enjoy playing.

If you ever decide to record your sessions for a podcast, I highly recommend doing just what I do regardless of how horrible I think I sound. Just be you.

Thanks again for just being awesome, Dear Readers.

Until next time…

P.S. – To my premium subscribers: my video editor ended up at the doctor’s office today, resulting in a delay on the videos being done. The Episode 2 and Monthly Game previews will be posted Sunday; thanks for your patience!
