1 hr 12 min - The D&D Contract
When you sit down to play a game of D&D, you are entering into an implicit agreement. You have certain expectations of the others around the table, and they have similar expectations of you! And if anyone fails to live up to them, they are in a breach of contract! The Bardic Twins break down the fine print of the D&D Social Contract this week on the show!

1 hr 24 min - It's Magic!
Magic is an essential element of Dungeons & Dragons, and can be one of the more confusing elements of the game! Rob and Steve discuss the Weave of magic, what makes each type of caster unique, and what changes they would consider improvements to the way it is presented in the books. Also, they argue about what class Doctor Strange would be if he were a D&D character.

1 hr - Let There Be Gods!
So you've come to that stage in worldbuilding where you have to consider the god(s) and/or goddess(es) that have shaped it. This can be a daunting task, since pantheons can contain a single deity to an overwhelming pantheon with literally hundreds of names in its roster! But never fear! The twins are here! We discuss ways to prioritize, organize, and focus on what's important to your campaign setting, illustrating with some examples from Rob's own ever-growing homebrew campaign setting, Erelais!
