The start of the new year is a time to look ahead to the future, and in some cultures it is traditional to practice divination rituals to get an idea of what may lie ahead. What better time is there to do an episode about one of the most well known forms of divination, the tarot cards?

In this episode our guest Nicki Ojeda discusses tarot cards, past life readings, and archetypal embodiments.

You can find Nicki on Facebook and Instagram at Tarot with Tatiara. You can also connect with her at https://linktr.ee/tarotwithtatiara?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=68671c6d-e833-467f-8ca4-f65a820ac092 and www.tarotwithtatiara.com

As the year 2022 draws to a close let's go out with an episode about one of my favorite hobbies: Dungeons and Dragons!

Historical Gaming is a series where I discuss possible ways to do a D&D campaign in time periods outside of the realm of European inspired classical fantasy. In this episode we'll learn a little about what it was like to be a hobo in early twentieth century America and how you might use this for a campaign set in the 1920s-1930s.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to work at an archeological dig site?

Jeff, one of Al's buddies from the college years, wondered the same thing. In 2021 he signed up to go on an archeology field camp at the Koster Site in southwest Illinois. This site has evidence of human habitation going back almost 9000 years. Jeff discusses the site's history and shares some of his experiences from working on the dig site.

CORRECTION: After posting this episode Jeff informed me that the name of the site is actually the German site. The Koster site is another site in Illinois.

If you want to see more of Jeff you can visit his YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/@corm1000. He has his own video up about the field camp experience.
