I've seen some vocally anti-AI people recently make an anti-AI post and be surprised there are still pro-AI people following them, and I can explain this;

most pro-AI people think they are somehow the exception. the way THEY are using it, SURELY you would take no issue!

well, we do. so fuck off.

Seven episodes in and I'm loving this story! It's got meat, and grit, and heart. If you're in the mood for some teen vigilante action with a smattering of sapphic pining and a -lot- of personality, check out Issues today!

In this clip from Dirtbags #12, coming next week on 10/1, Charlotte has a conversation with her mom about Amanda's newly-revealed relationship. Things go...well. Definitely no lying happening whatsoever.

Issues is a fantastic Masks AP using the lesser-seen Spider's Web playset, which I highly recommend!

I'm halfway caught up and enjoying it a lot so I'm going to keep listening that way, but if you want to know what it's about, there's a recap now to get you ready for new episodes. Check it out!

If you like this issue or it was helpful to you, please let us know! A lot of work went into it, but if people enjoy this, it's something I could consider doing every so often.

A bit of a delay on this one because I forgot to add in the ad for our good friends over at @kittenmarlowe.bsky.social!

They're currently running a very spooky and very queer game called Shadows In The Smoke using The Between! Go check them out!

That's Mr. Kendo D. Smith to you @kendomakesfilms.bsky.social · 23d

Marketing sucks and takes up so much energy. So just tell people you like to watch our stuff or tell us what you like about it.

Tales Yet Told | New Episodes Bi-Monthly @talesyettold.com · 23d

I feel like for our birthday I should probably do some big marketing thing...but I'm fucking tired lol

So maybe the marketing is just you telling 3 friends about the podcast. OORRR, you could leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify to tell us what you think.

One week from today, 9/17/25, we will be back with a clip show recapping the first 11 issues of our Dirtbags run so far! After that, new episodes will return on our regular schedule, including a couple of guest stars that I'm really happy and honored to have been able to work with.

This, 100%

Even as a podcast, if we make a good enough product, people will be waiting. And, if not? Oh well, it's a show, not our lives.

Thank you so much for the kind words!

We're very proud of the story we're telling and definitely just getting started, but sometimes real life happens and unexpected breaks need to be taken.

The good news is, when we come back with Issue 12, we hit the ground running!

We're obviously proud of each of our episodes and would love to have you listen, but if you don't have the time, our clip show should do a pretty good job of summarizing the events so far!

If we were to do a crossover with another #MasksRPG podcast (or another podcast in general) who would you want to see us work with? 👀
