Community and Broadcast Schedule

Typical Program Schedule & Broadcasts

All times PST8PDT.

[Youtube Live Stream] - youtube.com/rpgresearch
[Twitch Live Stream] - twitch.tv/rpgresearch
[Previous Broadcasts] - patreon.com/rpgresearch - Recorded streams available to Patreon supporters 1+ months before general public release.

All times listed are PST8PDT.

Due to overwhelming demand, and urgent need for administrative volunteers, and a warehouse space for all our equipment and studio, a lot of our programs are starting to be put on hold until we can catch up with training new staff. YOU CAN HELP.

For the sessions on hold, the reason for the hold is briefly listed as:

  • Staffing = current staffing is overloaded from too much demand, need additional sufficiently trained staff to resume.

  • Warehouse = need dedicated larger space for this program to resume (our current 1,700 square feet is over packed with our current program materials, studios, museum collections, etc. We need minimum 2,000 to 4,000 square feet space now)

  • Finances = need more donations or grants to resume

  • Equipment = current equipment is damaged and needs repair, is not able to meet current demand, needs to be upgraded, or is lacking entirely and needs to be purchased.

  • Server = current server(s) overloaded, need additional server(s) to resume

  • Bandwidth = current Internet bandwidth overloaded, need additional bandwidth to resume
