Episode 183 - Someone Is Wrong on the Internet

The D&DNext playtest is out. We didn’t play it, but we did read the comments appearing on the internet and we take issue with a few of them. So much issue that we ranted for an hour about it.

Episode 157 - Ars Draconica

Dragons. More popular than dungeons, I bet. We get into the nitty-gritty of dragons. What do they eat? How do they fly? Why are they always abducting princesses?

Episode 132 - Game vs. Game Cagematch

In this exciting episode, we compare games that have the same settings. Which ones do a better job of rules matching the setting? Which ones aren’t worth the paper they’re printed on? Which ones changed our lives and let us touch the face of God?

Episode 24 - Things We Say

I have no idea what the topic is on this episode. Seriously. Was it about role playing? Bunnies? Starting a stamp collection? A thrilling treatise on our current banking crisis?

Episode 7 - Art

Just in time for Christmas, it’s Episode 7. In this episode, we talk about art in roleplaying games. We also spend a lot of time showing each other pictures from various roleplaying games, which doesn’t translate at all.

Episode 6 - D&D 4e

The internet has given us many things: Twitter, Facebook, Pets.com. It has also given everyone a voice to bitch about things they find stupid and wrong. Like Dungeon & Dragons 4th edition.
