Countless little goblins, lethargic and limited bugbears, and scores of allies and cohorts make up a good portion of the goblinoid host, but there's still one thing we haven't covered yet: Leadership.  Who reigns over all the bugbear chiefs and goblin bosses?  Hobgoblins, of course.

This episode covers the Hobgoblin, Raven, Hobgoblin Captain, Hobgoblin Warlord, Devastator, and Iron Shadow.

The hosts featured are Brad, Dave, James, Megan, and Terry.

It's a bird!  It's a plane!  No wait, it's a bird, kinda...?  Holy crap it's a birdperson!

In this special mailbag episode, we congratulate our giveaway winner ( @onanymous ) by giving him the opportunity to control the topic of conversation!  And he picked the 5e playable race that Dungeon Masters hate the most: Aarakocra!  So with the limited lore, the difficult to find publication, and the lack of spotlight, what do we know about these bird people?  Where do they come from, what can they do, and what do they want?

For players, DM's, and just lovers of Dungeons & Dragons lore, this episode covers everything published to date about the speedy fliers who just can't leave their Rod alone.  Stay tuned for future opportunities where you may be able to control the flow of the podcast yourself!
