Neo-Anarchist Podcast: A Shadowrun History

This Parody is a bit different! This 6th world cover of Sabaton's Night Witches was voted on by the community, but I'd never heard the song before, so it just goes to show you that I'll do anything for the crows.

Another Monthly Parody is out! This time, it is the classic Men Without Hats song Safety Dance, but with a runner twist. Enjoy!

Second episode of 2077 where we talk about a bunch of random stuff. Special Thanks to Jester for this ep!

A low key agreement was made with some fans that if the patreon made it to $500/month, in addition to Shadowrun: Origins, we would release at least 1 song parody per month. So this is the first. More Neo-Anarchist Podcast history and lore is coming, but for now, enjoy our Staying Alive parody from the perspective of an Ork who workds at Docwagon and is using this as a sales pitch.

Episode 16: 2037, 2038, and 2039: Chicago goes down. Racist bags of filth push the metas too far. Nights of Rage, and tech advances, followed by a healthily scary dose of Dragon doings.

Listen to Opti rant about language in the sixth world, passively aggressively lamenting the fact that he sucks as pronouncing things right.

Episode 15: 2035 and '36. Conflicts in the NAN. The Landscape of North America continues to shift, as nations break up with each other and sour feelings abound. Also, a peep from a little cat shaman regarding anarchy in the sixth world!

2032 to 2034. I'm a wars, Eurowars, we're all wars. Episode 14 of the Neo-Anarchist Podcast removes all doubt that truth can be totally hidden. Opti's not alone in this episode… we hear from another voice as well. He's wrong, but that's why we keep him around. Just kidding. The Matrix takes shape and cyberwear takes a step forward. Enjoy, chummers!

Episode 13 is the twin sister of episode 12. 2029 to 2031 (part 2). What was happening around the world during the Crash and the years that followed? Some big fragging stuff! The Sinsearach tribe shows up, nations rise and fall, and the corps get shuffled.

Episode 12 is so large that it had to spill into episode 13. 2029 to 2031.The Crash of '29. The world wide web (and the actual world itself) falls apart and the USA tries to fix it, and fails, and tries again. Also, don't miss the surprise "guests" that are on the show. Opti was not pleased.

Episode 11 smacks you in the face with the data from 2024 to 2028. Magic gets regulated… or not. New ways to kill your brain cells are marketed, and people go insane trying new weapons for the government. Fun times on the Ne-Anarchist Podcast!

The world loses its drek once again as it struggles to dominate and destroy things it doesn't understand. Its another case of oppress first, ask questions later, as orks and trolls begin to manifest in the sixth world. It's a sad, sad, sad, sad world, Chummers. Thankfully, I am here to coddle you into understanding.

'Runners, this is a big one. The Great Ghost Dance goes down and Seattle takes its place as the Sprawl we all know and hate. 2017-2020 in Shadowrun history.

In this exciting episode of the Neo-Anarchist Podcast, 2015 and 2016, in which Mexico goes through ch-ch-ch-ch-changes, and turns to face the strange... new identity of Aztlan. The US makes a boo-boo of monumental importance, and more magicky stuff.

Shadowrun, years 2013 to 2014. Holy Coyote! Drek gets real when corporations fail to regulate themselves, and the US continues the war on Native Americans, and the Native Americans war back!

2011 and 2012. The Shadowrun universe in the Year of Chaos and beyond. UGE babies, Strange Brew for magic, and more fragging dragons than you can shake an Ares Predator at. Plus, my man Daniel shows us how its done. Enjoy, little crows!
