In the 45th session of Minds Never Matter, Sartheleon makes his way back home following his confrontation with Gwen to receive assistance from an unlikely source, and animosity from the person he thought was a kindred spirit. Meanwhile, Emilia and Cecily make their way back from the bar and Pogo researches means to protect his friends.

As time begins running out for Emilia, will she choose to align herself with a source she doesn't quite know that she can trust? Or is she finally starting to gnaw at the leash tying her to her mother's mysterious goals?

In the 42nd session of Minds Never Matter, our Not-Quite-Heroes wrap up the loose ends they left behind before they left for Glagus, much to their dismay, after one door closes many more open -- but there's no time for talking with ACE's sporting festival right around the corner.

Love is in the air, but heartbreak is crackling in the thunder clouds above. In the 41st episode of Minds Never Matter, our Not-Quite-Heroes finally make it back to the Adventuring College of Elona.

Welcome to the multi-award-nominated Minds Never Matter Podcast!

We're a group of five friends running a narrative-driven homebrew campaign based on 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons. Our current campaign follows four budding adventurers: Emilia Victosolis, the Paladin noble with a not-so-heart of gold; Pogo Stardust, the hard-working Barbarian doing his best to become a Wizard; Cecily Belghriom, a bubbly Cleric with the same vibe as a homeschooled church fanatic; and Sartheleon Grey, the charmingly self-centered Rogue with more problems than his aim with a dagger as they take on one of the most stressful challenges of their lives: becoming college students.

Taking place on the continent Divitotum, comprised of seven unified regions, our party comes together after being enrolled in the Adventuring College of Elona, the center most region in Divitotum. The college is known for training some of the top adventurers in the world, and each of our "heroes" have their own motivations and reasons for coming to the school as freshman. As the four begin to bond as a party and get used to their newfound independence at the school, weird things start happening that may indicate there's a much larger threat than midterms looming on campus.

New episodes release bi-weekly on Thursday mornings
