We return to the table of Allison and are joined by Raenelle from The Kids Table DND and we "jaeger/kaiju" another character together!

December 25, 2025Episode 158 - Parleys at the Platter #4: Art, Creativity, and D&D
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! For our fourth Parleys at the Platter special, I invited Lauren Walsh, Mandi Quin, Britt Anderson, Katherine, and Hank "DnDoodles" to discuss the fundamental elements that make D&D work: Art & Creativity! From the little brown books to the explosion of digital media, the world of art and creativity surrounding D&D continues to grow and expand over these last 50 years. How are we inspired? How can we continue to explore? And what are the technological challenges and ideological pitfalls must we confront like the Tomb of Horrors?
