Botched Roll is a show dedicated to tabletop roleplaying games and the ideas and stories that go with it. Birdman has over 20 years of RPG experience to draw from and hopefully you as a listener gain something insightful or fun from it.

In this episode of Botched Roll, Mike “The Birdman” talks about something different on the show for a change. This episode focuses on the value of trying something new and going out of your perceived comfort zone and trying something new at your table. We get used to playing the same character classes and sometimes that gets boring so why not try something new? Ever tried playing Rogue? Ever considering playing a decker? Its not always about damage and being the biggest stat block at the table, sometimes its being that unique spice that makes the proverbial sauce.
