Tale Gate is a live talk-back show hosted by Whitney Moore, discussing episodes of Campaign Four and answering fan questions. It airs on the Tuesday after the conclusion of each table arc on Twitch, YouTube, and Beacon with the VODs immediately available after the stream ends.[1]
Content and structure
The episodes of Tale Gate air after the end of each table arc. At the end of each episode, there is a Beacon-exclusive segment called "The Night Cap" where the cast answers questions from the dedicated Discord chat.[1] At least in the initial episode, the show was preceded by approximately 12 minutes of introductory material, including a montage of clips from the arc, and a brief summary of the events of the arc featuring interviews with each cast member in the party.[2]
The Twitch and YouTube 60 minute VODs (minus "The Night Cap") are immediately available after the stream ends and the Beacon 90 minute VOD ("The Night Cap" included) is also available immediately after the stream ends.[3]
