Welcome to Pixels and Polygons. This is a conversational podcast centered around gaming, where my guest and I answer a question based on the episode topic. This week’s episode is…

Year One Anniversary RPG Extravaganza!

My guest this week is:

Luis Aguasvivas is a writer and creator. He is a staff writer at popmatters.com and has a personal blog with interviews here: https://aguaspoints.com/. You can find him online on Bluesky as @aguaspoints.bsky.social. He also is involved with the NY Game Critics: https://nygamecritics.com/

Aidan Moher (he/him) is a Hugo award-winning writer and editor who has written about almost every niche facet of geek culture you can think of from Terry Brooks to Dungeons & Dragons. And whether he’s penning wildly read essays on Lunar: Silver Star Story, the undeniable lasting power of Chrono Trigger (the best RPG ever made), or the forgotten history of Magic: the Gathering, he manages to infuse deep, personal, endearing hooks into every story he tells.
