Gathering Information is a Patreon-exclusive Friends at the Table podcast series hosted by Ali Acampora where the cast talks about the process of making the show. It was created in March 2023 during a rework of the Patreon, in order to combine elements of the 'behind the scenes' nature of certain Pusher rewards, Drawing Maps, and Tips at the Table. It is available for Telepresence+ tier patrons, and currently being released monthly.

Do Not Listen To This If You Have Yet To Listen to PALISADE 17: Upon Our Grace Pt. 4!

04 Antagonists at the Table!! July 15, 2023 1:27:34 Ali, Keith, Jack This month, I'm joined by Keith and Jack to talk through THE ULTIMATUM as decided in the faction game and for Keith to share some of his perspective of THE PLAN and to shed a little more light on some of the friction in the last arc me and Austin touched on last episode.

I recommend not listening to this until you've listened to PALISADE 18: How It Always Looks Pt. 1!

05 Developers Blog Oct 4, 2023[2] 2:05:09 Ali, Austin This month I decided to bring Austin on so we can just talk through some of the moving pieces in the FatT office right now: Realis, Grandpa's Farm, looking to what we'd like to record in the winter, and of course... some discussion of Palisade! As you'll hear in the episode, part of the reason this release was a bit delayed was Austin wanted to get on call again to discuss some of the conversation around the latest faction turn!

Do not listen to these episodes of you aren't caught up with Palisade! There are major spoilers!

06 The Long View Oct 5, 2023[2] 1:26:42 Ali, Keith, Janine This month I was joined by Keith and Janine to talk about Phrygian and Signet, anxieties about the show, and a little bit of bullying!!
06.5 The Long View (Bonus) Oct 6, 2023 00:10:48 Ali, Keith, Janine Don't listen to this if you haven't listened to Palisade 28!Here is a (very tiny) bonus from the last episode of Gathering Info! Keith opened up a little about what he was thinking through for his next character but it was cut for SPOILERS. However, I love Keith and some of what he said is very funny to me, so I thought I should share it now that I can. Enjoy!!

Notes

  1. This episode was originally set to release on June 30, 2023 but was posted on the same date as next month's episode due to a scheduling error.
  2. 2.0 2.1 The episodes for August and September respectively were released in October due to a very busy few months on the casts side.
