Was on a long drive, thought I'd record some podcast audio

Off the cuff ramblings on podcasts I like, linked below

Tell me what you think

Interested in hearing how you felt about the audio - experimented with noise cancellation and bringing up the levels. Ah well, if I tried to get the audio perfect, would never release a thing

The base level of the hex. Sparsely populated, frigid cold, marshy, underground cavern. There is access to one of the maintenance stairways here, if you know the riddles...

Well, since my last episode a bunch has happened in the D&D space, and the read through from front to back of the 5e DMG isn't as appealing as it was 18 months ago. BUT! 2023 also brought #dungeon23, and I am super excited by it. So I thought I'd share what I'm doing for it - it's a megadungeon, in a sense... But not your classic mega dungeon. It's more a setting than a series of rooms. Anyway, I get into the details in the podcast.

Here's a link to the initial post from Sean McCoy, creator of Mother Ship RPG https://seanmccoy.substack.com/p/dungeon23

I mention Jack Chalker's Well World series. Here's the first book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/555184.Midnight_at_the_Well_of_Souls

Also, I mention the Tower of God manhwa https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_God

Discussing the first third page (out of 3) of the DMG Introduction - "Know your Players". Bears a striking resemblance to parts of a certain "stuff-talker's" book...

Recorded this back in early June 2021. Releasing now.

Audio in the main portion is kind of low, apologies. Rather get this out than make the audio perfect. I will improve!

Discussing the first 2 pages (out of 3) of the DMG Introduction.

More than two pages this time. Covering the Frontispiece art, the Title Page (credits), and the Table of Contents - briefly.

We'll start where everyone starts, with the cover. Like the cover, this is an intro to my podcast. I examine it in pretty fine detail - but end up where the copy editors at WotC wanted - to be inspired and excited to run awesome games for my players.
