2025 was a huge year for us. Thanks to you, we finally have a real home.

The days of chugging coffee around a folding table in an Airbnb are officially over. We now have a studio built and designed with care — a space that actually suits our needs, lets us use the right equipment, and gives us room to level up for the future.

We wanted to share a little tour of the space with you, to help us wrap up the year together. Click here to watch the Patreon exclusive video!

This studio came to life thanks to the incredible work of Taylor Frost, Zak Klapperich, Joe Kidawski and Skye Jackson, with guidance from our consultant James Vincent, who designed the full technical setup. And our Director of Operations, Melanie Bowman, flexed her interior design skills to transform the space from beige industrial to a moody, jewel-toned oasis.

Looking ahead, we’ve got big plans. More video. More recording. More experiments. More stories. More content in general — all made possible because we finally have a space that can grow with us.

None of this would exist without your support, your patronage, and this truly special community. Thank you for helping us build something real.

And one last thing — if you’d like to contribute fan art that we can put up on the studio walls, please send it to worldsbeyondnumber@gmail.com. We would love to make this space feel even more like home.

We hope you enjoyed the milestones of this year — the end of Book 4, comedies, murder mysteries, special merch, beautiful animatics, and so much more. We collaborated with some truly amazing artists. We showcased our friends. We stretched our wings into video. We hired our first full-time employee. And all of it is setting us up for 2026 to be an even bigger, better year.

We cannot wait for you to hear Flight of the Icaron, with GM Lou Wilson, starting January 6 — followed by our next big game, SOLARI, run by Aabria Iyengar. We’re taking to the skies, and it’s going to be epic.

You can expect the same bi-weekly bonus content by the fireside, and hopefully even more surprises and goodies up our sleeve. We have so much in the works, and we cannot wait to show you!

Does this mean no recording in a cabin in the woods??

Emily C

Moving on up!!!!! Hurray studio!!! Is there a name for the studio, possibly "The Campground" as it is more permanent than the AirBnB camps of previous campaigns??

Yin

THE STUDIO LOOKS SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keasha Jackson

Truly a wonderful thing yall created in these harrowing times. Thank you for continuing to create things for us ✨️

Abacus

Hell yeah! So excited for y'all, and excited for me, too! Can't wait to listen to your next stories. Congrats on the milestones, y'all!

Jesse Wells

A screwscrew spackle spackle

Jonathan Chesney

Y'all are just killing it and if the joy (and home-table vibes) your storytelling gives me is shared by all your fans (and I'd wager it is,) I can't even imagine what's in store for you and for us and it's just exciting to get to be a part of this. Cheers to a next year as full and fun as this one. Glad to see you succeeding and loving the hell out of what you do!

Elizabeth U

I watched the video before reading the post and thought: WAIT where's the fan art wall?? So glad that's in the works, the artists in this fandom are in-CREDIBLE.

Marioandy9021

Congratulations, this is an amazing space! Cannot wait to see what is created there, thank you for making 2025 so magical!!

Kelsey Aeilts

So incredibly proud of y'all and ecstatic for the things you will create with this space. Let's go 2026!

Urban Soul

Question: Have you guys considered offering a visual experience of at least the combats? Nothing like physical battle maps as those can be expensive, but maybe a virtual tabletop? If so I would recommend Shard Tabletop (for D&D) all of their tools for game masters and players are free and works great for creating homebrew material.

Chris Eaton

Does this mean actually videos to go along with the podcasts?

R. Shawn Abrahams

Been a patron since launch, so happy to see this troupe grow to new heights! Can wait to spend a life time with your stories!

Bryan

Where do I sign up to be full time employee #2? Ready to throw away my professional technology career just to help make this amazing magic happen every day.

Lost

So frickin jazzed for the first story in studio!!!!!

Jessica Conaway

Yay!! A studio! We love the air bnb days and we'll love the studio days even more. I'm so happy to be a small part of the beautiful, insane, imaginative wild ride you all are making. Thank you for bringing a short respite of joy and make believe every week. 🧡

Lorsnax

Oo I hope so!

Susan Gray

That’s fantastic!! So glad y’all have a space that’s yours! Your stories have been a rock to cling to during a chaotic time for me. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us!

Latricia Markle

YAY! I bet that wall will be filled with art post haste! Wish I was better in 2d art, are you open to non wall hanging art?

Kristen Huete

I love it, it's so beautiful!! And that neon sign is amazing

Brian Schoner

I like to think that I've contributed, like, one table leg's worth of furniture to the new space.

Nicholas Deacon

Amazing! I seriously want that neon sign!

Sean Case

Congratulations, y’all! The studio looks incredible. A fitting space to a-hoo-hoo and crackle, crackle. Truly the warmest fireside there is. Here’s hoping for a WBN version of the Yule log in 2026!!

Nym

Your guys are just so friggin’ cute. Happy holidays from all of us.

Sharon WaterfallAngel

Looks great! Would love more video content! I would also be obessed with magnetic doors 😆

Ahoo hoo! What a lovely home. It’s a sweet birthday gift for me to see you three enjoying the new space, those amazing doors, and that deliciously jewel toned oasis. Here’s to another year and many more worlds to come!

Witch of the Whispered Word

So excited to see Brennan as a PC in a long campaign, so excited to see Aabria as a GM in a long campaign, so excited for 2026!!! You guys rule the world(s)

whiskeyii

My longtime wish of finally getting to hear Lou Wilson himself—the man, the myth, the legend—GM at long last, has finally been answered! Jan 6th can’t come fast enough! And Aabria campaigns are always a wild delight! :D What a way to kick off the new year! Here’s to y’all’s success and much more to come!

Nessa_Vives

Chey

it looks amazing !!!!

CarpeBootium

So is the AirBNB just for Brennan and his American Girl Doll Shoes now? BTW, kick ass studio!

Emily Rainbow Spence

Y'all, not to get all parasocial on you, but your storytelling means so much to me. I was laid off on 12/1 (the day after my birthday no less) and canceled a bunch of recurring charges while I look for work. This Patreon is the only one I kept because your storytelling is a bright spot in my days. I love it when cool people make cool shit, and it's successful. Keep up the great work! <3

TeacupTheBopcaJournalist

So fucking happy that y’all have made your wonderfulness manifest into a physical space for you to continue to tell phenomenal stories. Hell yeah!

Kyle Watkins

This space looks phenomenal!!! It's the best feeling in the world to find a home to make the things you want to make, congratulations!! Proud to have been a small part of it :) (also i just want to come and like hang out here with you guys the vibes look amazing)

Camille Lanata

Congratulations y’all! I’m happy you have an inter-dimensional home for the all the worlds and all the firesides :)

Alyssa

I feel the same way! 💜 WBN is beyond compare (Also, best of luck in your job search!)

Adam

Congrats on the studio space you all!!! It's been so, so cool watching WBN grow and expand over the last few years. I look forward to basking in each world and story you and your team share with us in all the years ahead, like Flight of the Icharon and then the new sci-fi book! Always been a big sci-fi lover, can't wait to meet everyone's characters 💛

Ashe

That’s amazing!!! Congratulations on your new home. What a delightful video.

Kaitie

Love the new space and love that YOU love it!

Britt Anderson

Sending some fanart your way! One you’ve already seen…and hopefully in the next few weeks I can send another one when I finish it! Absolutely love the studio guys!

Alyssa

SOLARI is the official name? Can’t wait for another world from WBN to be obsessed with 😂🤩 Wish I could send y’all some fanart, but it’s mostly fan-crafts instead…can’t send through email, haha

The Wizard Stalwart

Proud to have supported since the start to see such amazing things being created with such a bright future ahead. Kudos and congrats to you all and thanks for your work.

fearne

💚🎉🥳🎉💚

AliceAliceAlice

...has anyone else noticed the similarities between Mirara and the Junk Mother?

Witch of the widening horizons

This really cheered me up on a difficult day so thank you for that. Proud to be a supporter from the get go and so very chuffed for you all. The studio looks awesome; a space that will serve, enable and inspire you going forwards. Super stuff. Spiffing. (Sorry, bit British.). It’s so heartening to see your enthusiasm and excitement! Can’t wait for all that’s to come. Happy holidays to you all. X.

Sam Berry-Sullivan

My coworker gave me a small birthday gift today: a crocheted pink salamander. I got larval Cram Daniel for my birthday and I am ecstatic. Desperately wish I could post pictures in my comments here.

Nolf!

I legitimately have never been more proud to see a group grow like this. I'm over here like "Yep, that's my Patreon dollars doing good work!" Supporting art like this genuinely feels amazing.

Queev (caoimh) 🫈💨

To think…none of this would have been possible with my 5€ in particular. You’re welcome guys!

Jasmine

Robin The Birb

Making Problems to Solve

Congratulations on the amazing space! So happy to see a bit of the future of storytelling.

Kat Lewis

So excited for yall!

The Wizard Sparrow

So I’m avoiding my graduate finals and I ask chatGPT the difference between elk, moose, stag, deer…my mind is blown😂😂😂. Deer=is the umbrella term (family) for moose, elk, red deer white-tailed deer and reindeer (caribou). Stag=adult male deer (red) and the female is called Hinds. Elk=found in North America but in older European text the term could mean 🫎 moose. Moose=largest deer species

Alyssa

Happy to contribute to the bit and to hopefully getting a Hint season 2!! The serendipity of Clue FX being mentioned on the Tuesday fireside and then seeing you perform on the east coast 3 days later was too perfect!!! 🤩🥰❤️

Deyla

how can you be a fan of this particular show and willingly use chatgpt

RobbieQ

Hungover on a long bus ride to see family (yay xmas) and getting emotional that the gang have got gaff 😍😭

Chippercrow

Nothing like a home and center to create from - thank you so much for making these stories happen before yours was set up! May your coffee never run out ☕️ that is my blessing to you all (including unseen staff who are also much beloved!)
