Hello friends, join me as I ramble through the considerations for teaching a friend (or group of strangers!) how to play Dungeons & Dragons. Includes history of tabletop role-playing, some personal anecdotes from DMing and mentoring friends in their first games, and a discussion of the practical needs of a D&D novice.

I recorded this back in May, and it's potentially the first part of a two-part episode. Let me know if I should revisit the topic by leaving me a comment on letmeexplainyouathing.com!
