So here’s a show. How about that? I’ll have to get to links Monday. I’m about to fall asleep.
Edit- I’m four days late, but here’s those links:
Grumbling Dwarf especially this episode.

Hey, Clyde, thanks for the mention of my show on your show. I see the kinship you’re talking about.
Great. I really missed your show.
Yes, I have finally listened to your podcast, and will be hitting all of them as I can. I’m sorry about your grandfather; I went through something similar this Thanksgiving.
Keep your head up, and keep casting!!!
Thanks for the mention. You rock. I’m looking forward to the new staggered format and more shows.
So, should I start calling it Uncle Theory From the Closet now?
Hey Clyde – glad to hear you’re staying in the land of the living – I was getting a but worried there for a minute listening to this episode. Anyway, just a note to say I’m looking forward to more TftC.
Hey folks,
Thanks a lot.
Ogre,
you can call me whatever you want.
Good to have you back, Clyde. Especially good that you are in good health.
I like your podcast. The interviews have been good and I think that the theory stuff in the beginning was clearly presented
However, it seems that you’ve ran out of theory to comment on or get out of the closet. That’s because, you’ve exclusively focused on the Forge-theory.
I would really like, if you’d get back to what makes this podcast special and bring new theory from the closet. Check out the Nordic stuff next or whatever else that is new. I’m sure that for example Montola, Hakkarainen & Stenros would have a lot to say about the Meilahti school and beyond. The Solmukohta books have a lot of interresting articles and persons behind those.
Hi Olli,
Thanks. I haven’t run out of theory though, it’s just I always have interviews I’m sitting on. They’re about all worked through now for the weekly schedule. Fortunately or unfortunately, depending on your point of view, there’s lots of The Big Model left to cover. I’ve been covering it as it’s the one I know. The podcast grew out of a desire to present the big model in a more understandable manner than through the Forge forums.
I really know nothing about Nordic theory. Is there a place where the ideas are presented in a clear, all encompassing manner? I don’t even have much time to go to the Forge anymore, so trying to dig out the whole of ideas, from say a forum or discussions across blogs, is well beyond my ken. I would love to learn more, if it doesn’t involve months or years of digging like I’ve done for the big model.
Also if the folks you mention don’t hit the few large American conventions I go to, it will be hard for me to interview them in person. I’ll do Skype for a discussion based thing like Discussions from the Closet, but interviews I do in person. I make a janitor’s wage so it’s unlikely I’ll be going overseas anytime soon.
Cool,
Well, that’s the beauty of Nordic theory – the discource takes the form of published articles.

Hi Olli,
Thanks. I peeked at them. Likely I won’t have time to thoroughly read, and digest them until next week, as Forge Midwest is this weekend, and I’m really busy trying to have something playtest-able, and getting ahead on the podcast since I won’t have this weekend to edit.
