Sidekicks & Sidequests episodes

  • Irythil the Thri-Kreen Muckraker

    We join the table of Mandie Greenie to roll the dice to create Irythil! They are a thri-kreen adult, working as literal muckraker in the streets of a major metropolis in your world. Invisible to most, they have learned a scandalous secret that could lead to some sensational journalism. Will you help them win a famous painting at auction to learn the truth?

    And note: I've included the raw transcript from Zencastr for this episode as well (will work to go back and retrieve and upload others as I'm able). Please note the transcripts are the UNEDITED version, not the final edit you are listening to.

  • Wren the Half-Orc Grave Cleric Tween

    We return to the table of Nicole the GameMasterMom to introduce a character from the upcoming "Tales of Aetheria: An Unexpected Quest", Wren! You've seen her in the artwork and promotion of this Kickstarter, but this first book won't actually feature this young adventurer. So, we decided to get a hint and a preview (and invent some new confectionary lore?) of this half-orc grave cleric in training! She needs your help to help locate a prominent spirit that has gone missing!

    And note: I've included the raw transcript from Zencastr for this episode as well (will work to go back and retrieve and upload others as I'm able). Please note the transcripts are the UNEDITED version, not the final edit you are listening to.

    The episode cover is the title cover of the book we are helping to promote the Kickstarter to fund, illustrated by Daniel, The Drawing Bard.

  • Parleys at the Platter #3: Game Design, Play, and D&D

    Happy New Year! My apologies for the delay on this episode. For our third Parleys at the Platter special, I invited Dr. Paul Gestwicki, Alyssa Visscher, Benjamin Huffman, and Mark Thompson back onto the podcast to discuss something in the zeitgeist with the new 2024 Rules being published: the nature of game design, the idea of play, and how it all relates to D&D. So join this globe-spanning panel (USA, Canada, and the UK) as we discuss everything from the 3rd party developers and homebrew content, to OSR & 4th Edition, and our (at the time) speculations and hopes for the 2024 rules.
