I dive straight into responding to messages from Joe Richter of Hindsightless, Jason Connerley of Nerd's RPG Variety Cast and Karl Rodriguez of The GMologist Presents, talking about The Dee Sanction, All Rolled Up, Mõrk Borg and how I'm not very metal. I then chat about how much I've been enjoying the Netflix series Arcane: League of Legends before treating you to yet another unboxing. This time it's the Haunted Almanac, a fabulous compilation of the work of microgame maestro Nate Treme.

I kick things off by taking a look at Perplexing Ruin's evocative Cairn supplement Darkness Moves before responding to calls from Joe Richter of Hindsightless, B. J. Boydd the Arcane Alienist and Jason Connerley of Nerd's RPG Variety Cast. A little more Green Knight goodness, alignment and morality, some Best Left Buried and playing in Middle-Earth.

I try to get to grips with the difference between Classic and Trad play before sharing a little spoiler-free review of David Lowery's The Green Knight.
