I've been rewatching this from the beginning again (because I'm obsessed) and I just realized the "Hello? Hello?" and them going into the smoking lounge is in the fucking screenplay pages they found when first searching the apartment!!! DELTA GREEN is the best game ever.

[@teenyzucchini8294]

I just went back to check, actual chills, this is the coolest ever!

[@rob7953]

Roger's behavior after passing a sanity check = everyone else's after failing one.

[@jrlonergan6773]

Lol Joe was so great in this. Syd's face killed me. This is the best podcast in the world. Period.

[@yourspookyaunt]

Someone needs to make a shirt with a banana, a diet mountain dew and a pack of mediums. "Makeshift's Bodega"

[@totallymojo]

And the picture of frozen webcam Francis poking out.

[@yourspookyaunt]

@@totallymojo so much yesssss!!!

[@Acantigue]

Lol, luck roll for bananas this time o' nite.

[@nickolasbelliveau7095]

that bodega back and forth killed me

[@Chuck-kc3pg]

‘Looking at the fireplace, looking at her, measuring her.’

[@rileymoore2967]

I wish I could say this was the first time I've seen milkboarding in a ttrpg campaign....

[@mrfikss]

Impossible Landscapes is one of the best long term campaigns I've seen in almost 40 years of playing RPGs. Soooo good and creepy.

[@Tecmaster96]

The thought of Imperial Russia and Imperial Germany working together is pretty terrifying. Much more terrifying than killing some poor random woman.

[@thecaveofthedead]

"Are we... are we the baddies?"

[@billpecoraro8421]

"Explosion of teeth" is such a great line. Awesome job running this Joe!

[@kaiserschnitzel89]

"There was all sorts of bitters" lol

[@unclestaple]

What y'all are doing here is providing material, recorded proof something I've know for years as a player: that RPGs are a compelling form of storytelling.

[@unclestaple]

Also, hope Joe can get some worker's comp for that on the job injury.

[@TheGlassCannon]

Thanks!

[@mr.e.knight42]

One of the funniest episodes of GCP ever! Skid losing his shit over a "feminist poet" getting speared by a special ops agent is priceless.

[@bigeye6606]

That Roger tackle scene was gold

[@CrungleFunk]

Roger freaking smoked her. Pun intended.

[@GryphonDes]

For the record - Iconoclasts is one HECK of a campaign and a book (got to see it during development thanks to patreon) -- it will not disappoint !

[@rolandfischer931]

Cumstones non-chalant "do you like Marlboro mediums" at 51:57 killed me 😂

[@Panicagq2]

I had a new player scoff at the idea that an unsettling experience could affect a person's sanity, so I waited for a good scene: His character was grabbing a beer during a planning meeting and dropped a bottlecap into the disposal; when he squeezed his hand in to grab it, something like a moist, furry mouth tasted his fingers gently but hungrily...the player was wigged out for the rest of the night hehehe

[@woobackwednesday2299]

Now that I'm rewatching the beginning banter, the "why the hell are we doing this?" part aged really well with what TRUE AMERICAN PATRIOT Roger Cumstone did afterwards

[@BlueRozberry]

IRL you can do CPR with 2 people. One person takes over while the other takes a break around every 3 to 5 cycles of compressions and breaths.

[@TheRapierTheBetter]

Just inject this shit into my veins at this point! Amazing work everyone but OMG Joe! you are Really going above and beyond.

[@ianthrower8744]

Troy gets an opposed roll against himself because he's his own worst enemy.

[@billpecoraro8421]

Also really appreciating the use of of the original Rome Total War soundtrack for building the tension in the investigation scenes. Excellent choice.

[@Gladedancer]

Do you know which track specifically?

[@thomassmart4088]

Carcosa is nice this time of forever

[@stevengardiner5516]

Roger's obsessive inhumanity is fantastic! It gives the other PC's a chance to react and to see where they are going.

[@fartymcbutterpants7063]

You had me in tears. I can't imagine what was going through that poor lady's mind while all this is going on. Crazy stuff

[@bernard832]

Opening a door into a building extending into extradimensional space? Nah. Reading the King in Yellow? Nope. Roger Cumstone subduing and interrogating someone? Roll for sanity.

[@theprecipiceofreason]

Beyond the Supernatural! Psychic investigators! I love that game - good drop on that Skid. So many good tables for insanity

[@wilknoble6072]

watching this episode while healing from getting a wisdom tooth wrestled out of my skull was a bad idea... hurts to smile and laugh so this episode was extra painful... so so good...

[@Zaburino]

Just binged the last 4 episodes yesterday, been waiting all day!

[@NerdishNature]

Also Joes GMing is so good now. Amazing.

[@TheGlassCannon]

Thanks! Glad you are enjoying it!

[@jerau2990]

I found your channel by that 'Call of Cuthulhu' episode you did with Seth Skorkowsky.... and I'm so glad I did. You guys are really amazing!

[@snifflindrake3283]

Palladium Books call out! Kevin Siembieda would be excited! Robotech, Rifts, Ninjas & Supersies, & the original PFRPG! Skid, you constantly surprise me and alienate more of your audience 😂🤣

[@irashu]

That, you will know which one, scene is every GMs nightmare and that escalated so amazingly insane. The horror is real. That is one of GCNs biggest strengths to me how fast horror can turn into comedy and comedy to horror and it never really feels like it destroys the mood. Which is so good.

[@thetoweroftomes]

Oh yea! That Delta Green fix is much needed!

[@WARdROBEPlaysWWII]

Technology and the freezing of the camera, classic.

[@stevengardiner5516]

Roger reminds me of Amos (from The Expanse), but lacking the impulse to find someone with a moral compass when he knows he doesn't have one.

[@rahjar]

I'm disturbed by how much on team Vickstone I am while I'm trying to catch up with the campaign

[@kgadventuresttrpg]

Great show, I’m happy to be a year late so I can binge the series loving it so far!

[@hollyweaver7292]

Roger isn’t buying the defenseless unassuming ol’ lady act!

[@ZebMeierWatz]

well that took a turn... 😳

[@stevengardiner5516]

The Palid Mask!

[@GryphonDes]

infection.. enlightenment ... just semantics when it comes to the King in Yellow

[@stevengardiner5516]

Francis's summaries are comic straight-man gold.

[@jrlonergan6773]

I literally have to rewind the endings of these like 50 times. So good

[@dm_nimbus]

Troy's entrance was perfect

[@reddleyTV]

Roger Cumstone is like Alan Ritchson doing a damn fine impersonation of Will Arnett. He is cracking me tf UP 🤣💀

[@trevorgoodchild2928]

Amazing, amazing episode in a fantastic series. Kudos to the whole team, especially Joe.

[@TheGlassCannon]

So glad you enjoyed it!

[@NerdishNature]

„Naaaaaanananana… no. Luck roll for the bananas…!” 😂😂😂

[@Kvalln]

The BNE was more upsetting to me than any cosmic horror will ever be.

[@TheMtotheF]

Workin on our NIGHT FLOORS!

[@andreasdesigns]

Each episode is better than the last. I LOVE this game! Btw Joe, did you get into trouble for breaking your MIL chair? LOL

[@paulheim9408]

Been Waiting For this!!!

[@Taal111]

Surely it would have been better for Roger's battlecry to be "FOR THE PATRIARCHY!"

[@kazen5907]

Selenium core girders...

[@donjohnson4906]

This is - alongside Time for Chaos - one of the most inspiring games I've seen, I'm always ecstatic when a new episode drops. Also, what's the song playing at the smoking lounge?

[@maxnomicon]

Great session!

[@garypoisson2733]

Counter to Skid's explanation - the players go in expecting the unnatural, but a Delta Green operative also goes in expecting the unnatural. The real advantage the players have is that this is a diverting, entertaining story with their friends, while for the Delta Green operative, these bizarre, impossible things are really happening. Edit: Joe said something very similar.

[@russellcharlton7814]

I went on a tangent about Joe breaking his MiL chair. How after he went and apologized and how that all worked out.

[@kionkick911]

Joe!!!

[@danyalmartin8374]

Shake it like a Polaroid picture😏 Love get in the trunk I listen when I take my dog to the park. All my favs from A&A! The show must go on!

[@GryphonDes]

Sorry to hear about the car Syd! Just sold my car last weekend and am car-less fir the 1st time since I was 17 - so I sympathize

[@SaintSolmari]

Just wanted to point out that the luck roll for bananas was completely unnecessary 😆. Now the condition of those bananas is a completely different story.

[@synthastro]

you guys, I roar abd cry with laughter, thanks so much for your powerful Medicine! @Skid, you have impeccable taste, I bought and ran Beyond the Supernatural back when it released, have always loved it too, especially the Nega Psychic, recently I re-aquired it, and boy, did that system suck! No wonder I struggled...

[@boeklo1251]

Francis's character literally does nothing but drink and stare dumbfounded.

[@Tecmaster96]

Not true he also puts his GF on blast and I’m here for it.

[@VivianQueenofUndeath]

I do have good news! The hole in the ozone is slowly healing itself again slowly but it is happening

[@andysykes4328]

Putting Vaseline on a fresh burn would be a First Aid critical failure.

[@Weary_Wizard]

1:11:00 you just know shes going to make a poem about this

[@csgilmore3536]

Yeah given the level of weird in this building. I think i would be staging a nighttime gas leak to blow the whole building and the people in it to kingdom come.

[@TheGlassCannon]

Correct.

[@RaymondRich]

I hate you, Gen Con break. :( Seriously, hope you all have a great trip and see you next time.

[@traivonterry]

Let’s goooo

[@CarlosRodriguez-dd4sb]

Fear for your life feminist writers, for Roger Cumstone cometh unto you Also, what did the household think when Joe started screaming for RP

[@nonam3party]

Love it!

[@gutterbones]

Got some very The Shining vibes from this episode.

[@matthewmolnar1285]

Thank you Joe and All. Wow another awesome, intense ,entertaining episode, Wow ! That combat scene... Wow , hardcore . And as Always Excellent RP. I've watch this scenario, Impossible Landscapes, twice before. On one channel i like , thee other i really like and this now this channel, that i really like as well, GCN. Alot of differences and similarities aplenty , of course. But one i was really looking forward to here was an interaction with this group and Michelle van Fitz , other than the one here , which was very good. The group interviews her , and wanted to see how Joe played her. The other 2 viewings of Impossible Landscapes , she was a total 'karen'. And thought it would be fun fun to see Joe do that. Missed opportunity, maybe .But thats' ok. Sorry bout your car Syd :( .

[@Thagreendragon489]

SO ALARMED that Troy isn’t wearing aviators. Threw me right off ahahahb

[@sirpercarde709]

He is in disguise, of course.

[@rperezatx007]

Good lord. I'll echo what others have said: the tackle scene was the most amazing thing ever. What a payoff. Just so you're aware, I'm TRYING TO LISTEN TO THIS DISCREETLY AT WORK! Today, I did not succeed. 10/10 would not succeed again, EVER.

[@dmeep]

I was thinking about this listening to the previous episode. can you not use luck to make near missed rolls in Delta Green? Roger can help CPR by singing the stayin alive song as that supposedly gets the rythm for compressions perfect

[@garypoisson2733]

Every feminist poet has a plan until Roger Cumstone body checks them.

[@Joeys-Channel]

LoL the milk

[@Buzzcook]

Eldritch horror in real life. Frequently when a car is totaled it can be made derivable again for a lot less than replacement cost. And even more frequently what the insurance company considers replacement cost isn't close to actual replacement cost.

[@mrabigail]

Game starts at 19:30

[@Acantigue]

Mwahalol! Yellow King Double Negative IPA - (insert Francis quote)Tastes like psychosis!

[@Tecmaster96]

2 hours is already too short! A 1:45 episode with 20 mins of banter is basically just enough time to tackle someone!

[@matthewcaron3319]

Roger Cumstone: choking out feminist poets since 1995.

[@bobnixon6220]

joe does breaking your moms chair take you back to when you were a kid and broke somthing or did somthing you knew might make her mad and know you had to explain it to her?lol

[@thorinbane]

Comment to bump

[@anthonycampbell422]

GAP INSURANCE

[@olikmaneau9707]

yikes police brutality

[@ironflange2000]

Did skid create his char name after cobining Neil Gaiman and Richard Bachman, with Bachman being Stephen Kings pseudoname?

[@wes2512]

The ‘Neil’ part comes from indie filmmaker Neil Breen, but I think you could be onto something with the ‘Bachman’

[@BostonDeadHead]

I had a friend in high school that slept with his eyes open it was so freaky. So many times we all thought he was dead. It was messed up.

[@csgilmore3536]

If i ever played this i feel like i would want to play an Irish demolitionist, maybe with mafia ties, and with all this weird stuff I'd be wanting to just prep the entire building to blow.

[@brianjohnson1985]

lol murder hobos, putting the beat down on the feminist artist lol love it.
