We decided to try a "lightning debate" format, and after gathering suggestions from listeners and brainstorming for a few weeks, landed on some very silly prompts to tussle over. Sadly, Keeper Dan was not present. But stay tuned for a rousing audience-generated "thank you" to the MUP mastermind. <br> <br> <br> <br> "Lovecraft's stories would make terrible Call of Cthulhu scenarios."FOR: Chad, Jon, Matt...and Murph as an accidental turncoat.
