Mon, 10 Oct 2022 07:00:23 GMT

Have you ever been completely enthralled by the plot of a story? Wrapped up in the dynamic character development and captivated by a scintillating twist? Well this is not what we are talking about now. No, we are talking about Abraham Van Helsing's penchant for somehow managing to completely avoid the plot while also making snide commentary from the sidelines. Well not this time, thanks to some fancy DMing by our very own Logan aka Kaos' puppet master, we have finally trapped him and wrapped him up in engaging plot lines and inescapable exposition. Join us as we see what he does.

The Calm Before The Storm - FAM |S2 E11|

Mon, 18 Jul 2022 07:00:24 GMT

Could the title be any more ominous or more accurate? With the team having finally stabilized the timeline (we did right?) and Horus Page back to riding the waves in Cali things should be fine now right? So why am I getting this sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach? What will the repercussions be for meddling with the timeline? Is this about to set off a fulls scale inter-temporal anomaly or will the team finally get their sushi? Those seem to be the only two options in front of us.

We're Never Letting You Out Again - FAM |S2 E8|

Mon, 06 Jun 2022 07:00:35 GMT

Join us to find out if the timeline will be preserved or if we will all be living in San FranTokyo and speaking Mandarin by 2025. 


In/Outro Music by Daniel Furniss


Off With His Shirt - FAM |S2 E4|

Mon, 11 Apr 2022 07:00:00 GMT

In the midst of a crisis of racism, immigration reform and potential historical manipulation the team still manages to find a way to make things inappropriate and hilarious. Join us in 1874 as we attempt to "fix" a broken timeline, destroy anachronistic bars and figure out what on earth to do with Amber, the time crusading influencer without a clue. With Mr. White, Jerome, Amber and the One Breasted Man all trying to pull them in different and insane directions who should the team trust and who should they be wary of? Find out what decision they make ... right now!


In/Outro Music by Daniel Furniss


Feels Like It's Barely There - FAM |S2 E3|

Mon, 28 Mar 2022 07:00:00 GMT

Sometimes time travel and saving the world looks like fighting off mechanical war machines and transforming into grizzly bears, other times it looks like surfing at a holo-beach with an overly stereotypical Californian politician in holographic swim trunks. You really never know what the timeline will bring until the adventure begins. Join us as we toy with the fate of history, this week on Fantasy Adventure Machine!


In/Outro Music by Daniel Furniss


Never Had A Man Say No - FAM |S2 E2|

Mon, 14 Mar 2022 06:00:00 GMT

Who knew the intricacies of 1875 immigration law could lead to the kidnapping of a congress representative and running through the streets of Washington? I guess probably B.E.T.H. In all the teams' adventures, it has been mech animals this and time void battles that, honestly it's kind of nice to just be dealing with a horribly racist and homophobic piece of legislation. Somehow things don't seem to be any less intense, with a new GM and the stakes running high let's find out just how insane this session can get.

Thu, 23 Dec 2021 08:00:00 GMT

Wait... is that not how it usually goes? This week the team has been recruited by the BTC a department of the Time Bureau whose job it is to ensure these supernatural tales play out the way they were intended. Join us as we try to soften the heart of the mizerly old scrooge Elias Shrivelocke, all while seeing what we can do about the aforementioned bats. Part two of our Winter Solstice Special will be released on December 26th. Enjoy and happy holidays!

Oh and did I mention we are playing Dungeons and Dragons for this session?

Super soldiers in Central Park and a shady underground government facility! What more could you ask from a Monday than that! Join us as we go on the hunt for whoever is behind this deplorable display of inhuman experimentation and attempt to overcome our foe.

F.A.M. |S1 E16| Is That What The Back Of My Head Looks Like??

Mon, 25 Oct 2021 07:00:00 GMT

Ever wonder what would happen if you went back in time and saw yourself? Would time fold in on itself? Would you go insane? Would you have an unexplainable compulsion to fix the back of your past self's hair causing a massive explosion that would rip apart the very fabric of reality? Would interdimensional temporal apparitions appear to remove you from the timeline by erasing you from existence? The short answer... yes, to pretty much all of the above. Want the long answer? Listen to the episode and find out!

F.A.M. |S1 E14| I'm A Gobstopper

Mon, 27 Sep 2021 07:00:00 GMT

Ok, so B.E.T.H. is probably not haunted, it is probably just a simulation or something, but it is definitely one of those creepy horror simulators and not like Farming VR or something. Virus Beth is still terrifying and to be honest, I am not sure what to think about the others either. Are our heroes any good at video games? What was Morpheus always saying about dying in the Matrix? I'm sure it'll be fine. Still, better listen and find out to be safe. 


In/Outro Music by Daniel Furniss


F.A.M. |S1 E13| Laboooratory!!

Mon, 13 Sep 2021 07:00:00 GMT

Things are getting weird aboard the ship, this is not the B.E.T.H. anyone remembers and in fact, it's kind of nuts just how chatty they are considering Beth rarely speaks. Something isn't adding up and whether it is because of the insane, clawed demon child or the general spooky vibes, our heroes seem more out of sorts than usual. Will they figure it out? Will the library provide any answers? Honestly, I don't know but I am on the edge of my seat, join me won't you?


In/Outro Music by Daniel Furniss


F.A.M. |S1 E12| Ghosts Are Real!?!

Mon, 30 Aug 2021 07:00:00 GMT

Things are very wrong with B.E.T.H. Something doesn't feel right and it's not just the terrifyingly creepy girl with the long hair and wicked nails that is coming down the hallway toward us right now! Ah!  ok, ghost Beth is not real, she can't actually hurt me. Will the crew figure out the cause of the nightmare before it is too late? Honestly, I just hope we all make it out in one piece.

F.A.M. |S1 E11| It's Time to Split

Mon, 16 Aug 2021 07:00:00 GMT

How did the whole mission go so horribly wrong? Some psycho multiplying wrestler reject showed up and messed with the plot, not we have to deal with it! How is the crew gonna get out of this while also making sure the timeline stays in tact? Honestly, I don't know, but I'm excited to find out!

Mon, 02 Aug 2021 07:00:00 GMT

How on earth did our heroes get themselves into this mess? And how did a character end up "surfing a dog?" Well, you could build a B.E.T.H. of your own, run back to the 1920s and find out for yourself ... or you could just listen to this episode to follow along as we go back in time to try and end a mobsters' career! Going from bustin' out to locking away!

Wow! What a twist, Joan has been displaced in 1974 Reems France and the crew is no longer sure who they are chasing. Is Vic in league with Blyth?
