Show Notes

At last! The long foretold of episode about our favorite table top roleplaying game is here! We just reached out second anniversary of playing D&D and we've been so affected by it that it warrented its own episode. Talking points: chance and collaboration in narrative; leaning into bad stats; several anecdotes about several campaigns; that time Hannah and Rachel played as fish cousins; the catharsism of in-character emotion; death by dice; changing base modules to suit your own desires; what effects watching and listening to actual-play shows has had on our own expectations; and, hey, maybe the real treasure was the friends we made along the way.
