Strength Check is an Actual Play RPG podcast with a rotating set of participants and rulesets. The current season is Cull’s End, based largely on D&D. Past seasons have focused on innovative interdisciplinary pedagogical development, happening in (almost) real time and finding new ways to engage students and the public. Games have included Kids on Bikes, D&D and Acquisitions Inc.-based side-quests. The first season focused on Dr. Andy Wilczak exploring topics relevant to higher education.
