S4E11: Let the race begin!
from Backwater Bastards: An Actual Play Podcast · host Backwater Bastards | Realm
The flag drops, the crowd roars, and the Bastards are gunning it. Jordan is pulling, Trevor is driving (sort of), Cleo, Boris, and Robin are in the back doing something that smells like chemistry- and Ze is hanging off the back on a wheel and wreaking havoc. The race starts out behind a massive spiked train filled with secrets. There are wraiths on the track, three-legged synths, the musical stylings of Bad Snax, and a mess of rowing Terrans. But Bastards are a family with a mission, and they cannot lose. Not after everything they’ve been through, and certainly not in front of Robin! They have a weapon called The Doctor. They have a plan. They have.. Tomatoes. And when they round that first corner and a cart gets wrecked- it almost seems like that plan is working.. That those suspicious figures that fled through the stands were just another family of losers.. Just one less obstacle between them, the family fun lesson of a lifetime, and that shiny new spaceship spoiler..
