It’s a perfectly normal episode, without guests or con recaps or anything – what even is this? It’s an episode about getting your feet wet as a GM, that’s what! After our usual banter, including Jenny’s sudden appearance in Grant’s D&D game, we answer a question from Patreon supporter Shawn, who asks us about our perfect gaming room.

As foretold, once every thirty-three episodes Mike Perna of Innroads Ministries, Game Store Prophets, and Bard and Bible joins us—this time, to talk about board games! Mike takes a moment to plug TavernCon 2018 (June 9th in Warren, NJ.) We also give a bit of a shout-out (belated by the time this episode drops) to the Min/Max Podcast for hitting the one-year mark. Then we take on a question from
This tale marks the first foray into what I’m calling the Wandering Bards Guild. It’s a chance for you to hear from folks I’m confident will be worth your time to listen to – friends and fellow travelers attempting to navigate… Continue reading
