This week, we're taking a meme and making the framework for a TTRPG out of it. Join us as we discuss themes and mechanics, define some terms, and just generally have a good time figuring out how we might get our own booth at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair.
Here's a link to the meme in question: https://imgur.com/wkK73kR
A large amount of the information I know regarding the 1893 World's Fair (the "World's Columbian Exhibition") comes from the book "The Devil in the White City" by Erik Larson. You can find more information about it on the author's website, here: https://eriklarsonbooks.com/book/the-devil-in-the-white-city/

Our theme song is Massacre Anne, written and performed by Mary Crowell, and used with permission. You can find Mary's work online at marycrowell.bandcamp.com, or on Patreon at patreon.com/DrMaryCCrowell.
