Other Media of Things Discussed

Below you'll find links to the episodes of 'Follow the Leader' where they played Random Access Histories. The first BONUS episode staring Jade and MK (please note that MK is going by a different name during the time this was recorded). It's an amazing one-shot with some wonderfully realized mecha. The other two episodes are where August, joined by Danielle from 'The Room Where It Happened' who over the course of two episodes, get into some Grade A Mech-antics. Mecha-ntics? They're all work a listen and really highlight this game!
