Welcome to Astronomica, a science fiction OSR actual play podcast using the Stars Without Number RPG system. Join Star Master Stan and regular players Colin, Cullen, Geoff, and Kristen as they crew the definitely-not-piloted-by-a-rogue-AI ship The Admiral Grace. From encounters with magnificent space whales to battling intergalactic corporate scumbags, there is nothing this crew can't make way more complicated than it needs to be. Tag along every Wednesday and listen in as we learn that the true friends were the ones you decompressed and maybe accidentally spaced along the way.

Ep 166: Witness Me, Ashton Kutcher!
Mar 06, 2024

The first night of festivities wrap up with a bang. Not that kind of bang, the metaphorical kind that happens when a court eunuch, a holo star, and a whole lot of N-Zed walk into an opera. Plus, a beloved NPC makes their return.

Ep 163: Somewhere Over the Event Horizon
Feb 14, 2024

Whelp, there's a space monster. And after Stardaddy made fun of us for being so careful and everything. It's almost like he *wants* us to perish in the terrible tesseracting maw of a horrific inter-dimensional creature the likes of which no human has yet to survive.
