Ordderrrrr! Have you seen Shang-Chi yet?! Neither has Joe, but that's because he doesn't want to go to a movie theater. But go see it! Also, you can now find Joe on Twitter at @leomundsslut! But enough of that--let's get down to business! In court today, Justice Mikkeeyyy joins us for another rousing good time. In In re Shepherd Druid's Speech of the Woods, the Court considers whether Shepherd druids can still talk to birds even when they are wildshaped into wolves, Rawr! And in Chamber Chat, we take a hard look at the age old dungeon delve--is it still an effective way to engage your party, or is creeping around every corner and musty hallway a thing of the past? Come find out!

Keep up with Justice Mikey's latest creations over at @TheGMMerchant on twitter!

Summer is coming to an end, which means RAW School is here!! Get your books and your blades, pupils, and gather 'round for Season 2 of RAW School with Professors Joe and Ana!

We kick off the season with a new segment, Roleplay Redux (working title), where we bring on players both new and experienced to discuss playing the game! Today, we welcome on Joe's good friend Andy Lewis (Co-Host, Discussing Amongst Ourselves). We discuss why it's okay if your first character is just a little gay witch, the heavy lifting us spellcasters do, and more!

Y'all, we wont lie, SOME Supreme Courts kinda suck and make terrible rulings and decisions and are just trash....but we're not!! Welcome back for our second episode of season 2, and we're joined by the one and only Justice Clint! First, we tackle a very interesting case--In re Undead Telepathy. If undead *know* a language, but can't *speak* a language, could they respond in that language via telepathy? o_O *brraaiiiiinssssss* And in Chamber Chat, we take a look at making memorable bosses and NPCs--how do they affect a campaign? How do they affect the overall narrative? Join us, citizens!

Order, order, order in the court!! We're diving into SEASON 2, friends, and Justices Joe and Ana are absolutely ecstatic to be joined by Justice Andrew to kick things off!

In Chamber Chat, we discuss how to keep your creative juices flowing as a DM and avoiding burnout, as well as checking in with your players. Let's go!

Well pupils, if you've made it this far, then you're ready to play D&D!! That's right, you've completed RAW School 101 and are ready to start looking for a group, creating a character, and smashing goblin faces with your war hammer!...or, ya know, befriending the goblins and helping them become productive members of society! Who knows!

Our star pupil, Sandy, joins us to reflect on the character creation process, find inspiration for an engaging backstory, and discuss some lingering apprehensions she has about sitting at the table and playing.

Now that we're done with RAW School 101, stay tuned for more advanced topics in the future, and who knows--maybe you'll even want to step into the world of DMing!!

**CW: sexual assault, sexual content, and racism from 43:00 onward.**

Parting is such sweet sorrow, but we wont be gone long!! That's right, sadly this is the season finale for RAW & Order, but we will be back at the end of Summer/beginning of Fall with all new episodes! In the meantime, we'll be active on social media, releasing new episodes of RAW School, and continuing with our Twitter pledges, including a LIVE SHOW at 500 Twitter followers!

For our finale episode this season, we couldn't be more thrilled to have Hunter back with us! Join us for a discussion about whether oozes/gelatinous cubes can be viciously mocked and whether the star druid's chalice form works with the spell Goodberry! We end with a more serious topic--absolute limits at your table and what content should or should not be part of a TTRPG. We discuss difficult issues like sexual assault and racism, and whether those kinds of topics should even be allowed to exist in our games. It's a difficult but important discussion to have!

AND FINALLY: We're THRILLED to announce that we're exploring producing a live-play podcast to premiere later this summer! Be on the lookout for more info!

We promised, you waited, and we delivered. Behold: Rumpsringa of Deception, Chapter 1!!! THANK YOU so much for getting us to 300 Twitter followers! Want chapter 2? Get us to 600!

* * *

As the sun rises in the early morn at the humble Yoder farm, we meet Jacob, a conflicted young man. Forced to choose between leaving behind his ailing mother and growing family or disappointing his father and community, Jacob must decide whether he will further the traditions of his people and venture out of the homestead for the very first time. What will he choose? Also, his brother may or may not have an intimate relationship with a horse.

School is in session! Welcome to RAW School, the RAW & Order mini-pod where Justices Joe and Ana will be covering all of the basics of D&D. This will be a regular sub-podcast of RAW & Order, and is aimed at covering all of the basics of D&D to help introduce new players to the game!

Unsheathe your sword, grab your spellcasting focus, and roll for initiative--it's time for combat! That's right, it's time to put your skills to the test in battle! We'll cover the five core components of a combat turn--Actions, Bonus Actions, Movement, Interactions, and Reactions--and we'll discuss ways to use your special skills and abilities to make the most of your turn. We're taking it to the field today, kids--let's roll!
