In our very first Side Table episode, we gather at The Natural 20 café and talk about the rise of nerd culture, our personal introductions to tabletop games, the necessity of house rules, and skill rolls versus play autonomy.  

Welcome to Cantrips and Coffee, where each month we roast up a fresh batch of episodes on different tabletop roleplaying games. In our "anything but D&D" format, we explore different systems and review them to help you decide if they're worth your time and money. Join us next time for our actual play episode of Dungeon Crawl Classics, by Goodman Games. 

Coffee of the batch: Rocket Fuel by Beans Coffee Bar and Bistro, rated 4/5 Elder Gods. Questions, comments, or crippling criticism? Email [email protected], or find us on all major social media platforms as cantripsandcoffee (instagram, tiktok, facebook) or cantripsncoffee (twitter, snapchat).
