Not sure if you’re the person to ask about this, but what ever happened to the Magnus rpg with Monte Cook Games? I remember getting a bunch of stuff around a year (I think) ago and haven’t heard much of anything since

You didn’t hear it from me but we actually just gave final approvals to it! As far as I am aware it is printing now :)

Hey Boss!

Is there any chance of the strange music (the one from the unknowing) being released on its own?

That’s a question for composer Sam Jones. He holds the rights with a third party, not us. Sorry!

Hello Alex,

Well done on the final episode - it was amazing! I hope you enjoyed the live drop (and the tears!).

I was wondering, are we getting a mid season Q&A? I know lots of people have questions 😅

We should be yes!

Technically this is April’s call but between S1 and S2 I believe we will have:
Epilogue
What If
Fluff
Q+A
Rusty Fears
S2 Trailer

That list is not in order or official (there may be more or less due to stuff beyond control) but should give a general idea.

Epilogues and Trailers are full Canon BTW and will absolutely include story elements.

hi Alex - please me, I am confused! 😅

Is your voice in the Nine II Midnight (2022) podcast? Because a voice started speaking, and it sounded exactly like you! Your name doesn’t appear in the written credits, but I swear someone just read your name out!

If that is the one in the theme park then yes that was me. I did a bunch of versions from completely unhinged right the way through to boring and let them pick from the options. Weird recording session but end product worked nicely :)

Hi mr bossman!

I have a question regarding tmagp 29, since it says you've written that episode. I'm czech and I've been living in Prague for 7 years now and I really like that the places are actually really connected. Have you been to Prague or was this just researched thx to good ol' google? Another question that has been buggjng me... Zamčené muzeum, that would be translated as The Locked Museum, not Lock Museum... is that a hint to the rest of the story or just a lucky error? Anyways, thank you for the great episode it was really a treat to listen to!

1. Have been to Prague and loved it
2. I also did a whole mess of research because I went years ago and haven’t seen big chunks of the city because I wasn’t there long.
3. The tricksy name was intentional but I can’t remember if I did it or if Jonny did in his edits.

I have the opportunity to share one of my favorite short stories in my creative writing class, and I have permission from the teacher to share a statement from The Magnus Archives, so long as it can be understood by someone who has never heard of the podcast. Which episode would you suggest?

Hmmm, I don’t know why but right now my brain is saying The Piper but that might be a bit too old-timey. Honestly, almost all season 1 statements work in isolation so you can’t really go wrong.

In an early Q&A you mentioned that Martin consists of a lot of the facets that you disliked about your younger self and left behind.

How do you feel about S4/S5 Martin?

I mean he’s better but I still think he needed a whole mess of Therapy he wasn’t getting.

Also, fun fact: My wife despises Martin as a character. She says she doesn’t like hearing me sound so rubbish compared to the real me. Which is… nice? I guess?

Yeah I have a weird relationship with that character.

if u had to write a podcast what would it be abt

I dunno, I guess I’d get me and a few budskis over who all look,sound and think like me, then crack a few suds and talk about sports, cars and how poor people just need to try harder whilst eating snacks loudly in front of the mic.

(For when this is inevitably taken out of context by someone for malicious purposes: THIS IS SARCASM. I DO NOT ACTUALLY THINK THESE THINGS. IF YOU’RE QUOTING THIS YOU SHOULD PROBABLY PUT THE KEYBOPARD DOWN)

I think that just about covers it?
