Our Campaigns
HeroQuest 2
Sartar: The Colymar Campaign (June 2012 to November 2012, 20 episodes + post-game discussion)
Serenity
Serenity (November 2011 to May 2012, 12 episodes)
This campaign was a little odd. The second serial of Adventure! was winding down, and this setting came in kind of as a last resort. I did have a big plot arc, but I handled getting the characters into it too "realistically", and that meant the players were flailing a bit at the start. With the departure of several of the key players, this campaign is not going to resume. I ultimately wanted the characters to have to decide whether to allow a civil war to break out again.
Call of Cthulhu
Masks of Nyarlathotep (September 2009 to February 2011, 52 episodes + 4 diaries)
I had the opportunity to incorporate material from the upcoming Masks of Nyarlathotep Companion, so I jumped at the chance. I'd always wanted to run this campaign, and it was listening to another group (The Bradford Players) playing this campaign that motivated me to form the Gaming Grunts.
Day of the Beast (April 2008 to March 2009, 40 episodes + 8 diaries)
I found a copy of this out-of-print campaign at my Friendly Local Game Store, so I grabbed it immediately. The campaign has come under some criticism about motivations and a "monster of the week" feel, but my players liked the monsters (and I fiddled a little bit with motivations).

The Haunting (April 2008, 2 episodes)
This was the first audio recorded by the Gaming Grunts. It's a classic Call of Cthulhu scenario straight out of the rule book.
Adventure! Tales of the Aeon Society
Serial 2 (May 2011 to July 2011, 13 episodes)
The inspiration for this setting came to me as an image in my brain and set me off writing a LOT of the mythology. I did steal the Mahars from "At the Earth's Core", but I think everything else is "original". If I wasn't such a lousy artist, I'd try to draw that image.

Serial 1 (April 2009 to September 2009, 14 episodes plus 1 diary)
I listened to the Bradford Role-Playing Society playing this game system and decided to purchase the e-book (from DriveThruRPG). If you watched American TV in the 70s, you should be able to figure out what show I based the PC organization on.
