About Brian
Fiddleback Productions is the umbrella under which Brian Casey, aka Fiddleback releases his current projects. From games to podcasts, gaming related blog posts and more, it’s all a Fiddleback Production run from his bedroom ‘studio’ and released in various places on the internet.
I fell in love with role playing games thanks to the red box Dungeons & Dragons in the ‘70s. Turns out I enjoyed it so much I got into other kinds of games; board games, card games, miniatures, and even video games. Now I make podcasts about games and gaming and the people who play them. I always want to look beyond the rules and mechanics of a game to see how people connect with it and why they do what they do.
I started making podcasts nearly ten years ago. There wasn’t a lot of information about how to do it back then, so I had to teach myself and learn by doing. Now I’m an old hand at it and have at least a half-dozen more under my belt. You never know when another one might pop up.
Perhaps my most well known podcast is GM Word of the Week. Initially created with my friend Scott Rehm, it is now a solo effort, though it still retains its focus on interesting words GMs and DMs may encountered when playing a variety of RPGs including Dungeons and Dragons. No matter what edition we are currently in.
Because every gamer eventually tries it, I’ve published my own game. Transit: The Spaceship RPG asks a basic question: Would you like to fly a spaceship? It was far more successful than I had hoped.
