We're a group of podcasters who have at least one thing in common: We talk (at least a little) about roleplaying games. We might talk about what we're playing at our tables, about what's going on the industry, or about what we've learned that might help others improve their games. We might even talk about other things besides roleplaying games! Explore this site and find out more about our shows.

Once you've sent this information, we'll get back to you once you're added in the system or if there are any problems with adding your show. If you haven't heard back within a few days, feel free to email Ryan again, in case your email was lost due to a spam filter or otherwise missed.
The only requirement to be listed on this site is for your show to discuss topics relating to role-playing games, as an ongoing part of your show. That doesn't have to be your only show topic, and you do not have to discuss RPGs on every single show, but it should be a considerable portion of your ongoing content. There are no additional requirements to mention this site on your show or anything else along those lines.
This site updates (ideally) nightly by reading your RSS feed and processing it for both your show information and your individual episodes. As such, that means the only change that you need to email Ryan is if you, for whatever reason, change your RSS feed address. Everything else -- your show's title, description, hosts, logo URL, and episode information -- is grabbed from your feed, so any changes you make to your feed should be reflected when this directory does its update. That said, please email Ryan if you find any problems with the update process.
Note: if your feed doesn't validate, it will likely cause problems with your listing. So if you do find problems, please double-check that your feed is valid with feedvalidator.org. Thank you.
This section is for those who are familar with RSS and XML. In case you would like to know where in your feed we get the various information about your show, here are the details:
<channel> node)<title> node<tagline> node. If that's empty, then the <itunes:subtitle> node.<itunes:summary> node. If that's empty, then the <description> node. If that's also empty, then the <itunes:subtitle> node.<itunes:author> node.<link> node.<url> inside the <image> node. If that's empty, the the href attribute of the <itunes:image> node.<item> nodes inside the <channel> node)<title> node.<link> node. If that is empty, then from the <guid> node.<itunes:duration> node. This site does not actually grab the individual MP3 files, so there is no other way it obtains an episode's length.<pubDate> node. Note that as with all dates in RSS feeds, pubDate should conform to RFC 822. (Ex: Sat, 07 Sep 2002 00:00:01 GMT)<description> node, with all HTML tags removed.<guid> node. If that is empty, then from the <link> node. If that is also empty, then from the url attribute of the <enclosure> node. Your GUID must be unique in order for this site to display your individual episodes. If your feed does not list GUID, individual episodes will not be cataloged.<enclosure> node, specifically the url attribute on the tag. If there is no URL, then the entry is treated as a blog entry without an attached podcast, and is not recorded in the system.
