Dungeon Master's Apprentice

If you could hand-select a party, which classes would you want represented? In this episode, we roll for initiative and then go through a snake-draft-style selection with Brett and Nathan to see what class is going first overall and what class is being neglected. Follow along as we go through four rounds of selections to determine what makes up the ideal party and why. This one was a lot of fun to record and we hope you enjoy every pick in the draft.

We're back with everyone's favourite guest who has never played D&D, Bryat, to talk all things fantasy. Topics include the origins of common tropes in fiction, the Pokémon generation 4 remakes, anime, and horror in video games.

In the third instalment of the World Building series, Brett and I are here to talk about the campaign that's on our horizon: the Maze Campaign. Not only do we discuss what this new world is going to look like, but we also go through what every DM should have in mind before entering a new adventure. Of course, we dip into a few other unrelated subjects such as homecoming, birthdays, and inventing our own subclasses.

On October 9, 2020, the first ever episode of Dungeon Master's Apprentice was recorded alone in my apartment and then sent as an .mp3 to my friends in our iMessage groupchat. One year later, we've got big Nate on the pod to reflect on a year of content creating. We discuss our early projects, listen back to the very first episode, talk about my recent intro to Warhammer 40k, and get a surprise visit from a brand new guest!

Thank you to everyone who's been around since Day 1 and to those who have joined us since. An extra special thanks to my friends and family for all their support. It's been a hell of a ride and we can't wait to see what the future has in store for us! Feel free to send us your favourite DMA moment to us on Instagram @dungeonmasterpod!

In this long awaited for sequel to episode 3, we've got more guests than ever before to brainstorm a new setting for our next main campaign. Our regular adventure is winding to an end and it's time to start thinking about what sort of world we would all be interested in playing in, and we eventually land on a very intriguing and unique idea that could easily be incorporated into your own home games. We also talk about what it's like taking long breaks from certain campaigns, fighting Tiamat, resurrecting characters as revenants for that "one last mission," and getting pelted in the face by snowballs.

Let's face it - D&D is full of theatrics, which is why we brought in actor, playwright, and longtime friend Alex to give us his interpretation of how to put on a show at your table. We also get into some very serious debates on salt vs peanuts, dive into some new segments, talk about our origins as performers, and test Alex's vast movie knowledge.

Not only is it fun to take a break from DMing and play a few sessions every so often, but it can also open your eyes to how life is on the other side of the screen. We brought in expert player Brett Clark to help explain the importance of being both a player and a dungeon master at your table. This one's chalked full of some good tips for players and DMs, so be sure to give it a listen!

Our very own hall of famer Dave Adiem is back and he's ready to run a one-shot for our friends! Having your players run a one-shot is a great way to get to finally roll up that character you've been thinking about, and who knows, maybe the one-shot turns into a full-on campaign! Join us for this very fun episode where we bounce around a few interesting ideas and discuss what makes a good one-shot.
