This week on Tabletopped, we sit down with Katie Lear, a therapist and the founder of Young Dragonslayers. We talk about how tabletop roleplaying games can become a space for healing, connection, and facing hard things, especially for young people. Listen to Katie and Nick talk about their history with ttrpgs, what they have observed at tables, and how they have used ttrpgs in their own lives.

In this episode, we are pulling a favorite interview from the archives to talk crunch.
Special guest Derek Kane-Gervais is interviewed as we dive deep into the world of rules-heavy RPGs and explore how probability curves, character optimization, and mechanical complexity can enhance rather than hinder the storytelling experience.
Topics Covered:
So grab your dice, your favorite beverage, and maybe dust off that character optimizer spreadsheet—we're diving into every reason why mathematical storytelling deserves more love!
Join host Nick Perron as he draws from his expertise in the TTRPG space to explore the cutting edge of game design with creators who are pushing boundaries and making magic happen one dice roll at a time.
