Jim Likes Games is an ongoing audio diary of the many, many role-playing sessions of Jim Crocker, longtime tabletop RPG retailer, curator, author, and community organizer. Each episode will feature a bite-sized breakdown of a recent tabletop role-playing session, including a mercifully succinct plot synopsis, high points of play, and an observation about the game or scenario's design that might help listeners with their own gaming.
Each regular episode should clock in at 20-30 minutes or so depending on the complexity of the game and the length of the session. Special episodes may run longer.
