Iteration 081 - Disconnected Dots



Direct download link is here: http://traffic.libsyn.com/thesimulationist/Iteration_081_-_Disconnected_Dots.mp3

In this iteration, Josh Treleaven and Ryan Kirkby talk about the new D&D episode of Community, and a bit about Josh's game design work, some conspiracies, and the Cthulhu Mythos. And for our main topic, we discuss the absurd and seemingly random elements of fiction, such as the Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and Batman. We tease out the essential difference between the Joker and the Riddler.
