Lazy Worldbuilding
How to create the best fantasy worlds with the least effort
A podcast dedicated to helping writers and DMs build interesting worlds without spending huge amounts of effort on the task. It releases one new hour-long episode per week and another 15-minute-long bonus episode on Patreon every week. I release the podcast at 3 am my time every Wednesday so it should be available for a commute.
Each episode covers one niche topic to show how you can build a world starting with only that topic as an idea. Each episode is made up of four segments: in Today's Topic, I'll go over the theme of the episode and why it matters. In Investigate the Implications, we'll see how the topic affects other parts of the world. In Ponder the Presentation, I'll show you how to present the topic so it appears deeply fleshed out even when it isn't. And in Fantasy Forge, I'll build a world starting with only the topic to prove it can easily and quickly be done.
I firmly believe that you can create an interesting world with only the tiniest of ideas and you can do it without spending hundreds of hours learning about real-world science, technology, politics, or anything else. Those things can definitely help, but they aren't needed.
