Also, we talk about beans and John passed out for two hours after recording.

This week Brandon talks about the mythic Pooka, it turns out John knows a lot about the Pooka. Anyways if Dungeons and Dragons is not your cup of tea, we actually get to the episode topic ~34 minutes in.

Also John's calls on who's the best DM don't even necessarily represent John's own views, D&D talk just overrides any logic centers in his toy-addled brain.

It's the Christmas season and in honor rampant capitalism this week we're talking guerilla marketing and commodification of myth!
