Who knows the evil that lurks in men’s souls? Trampas, Chuck, Tim, and Ed, of course. After a discussion of the 1990s, Pepsi Clear, Ghostbusters, and raging hairstyles, the quartet initiate the first three potential villains into the first circle of darkness.

Who will win in this epic smackdown as we prove that evil only turns up itself?

Hosts: Trampas, Chuck, Tim, and Ed.

Great Scott! Proving that there’s no school like old school, the trio fire up the Dragonlance Delorean and travel back to a time of VGA graphics and SSI-created video games.

Our hosts cover eight of the classic 1980’s and 1990’s Dragonlance games, offering their suggestions for improvements, discussion on how these games hold up to modern-day standards, and even how to cheat to win the War of the Lance. (Adrian needs a ‘Sturm Does Not Approve’ meme for this – can the community help?).

Strap yourself in for all the fun of 1.21 gigawatts of retro-Dragonlance!

Hosts: Chuck, Weldon, and Tim.

WARNING: this episode contains discussions about Season 6 of Game of Thrones and Captain America: Civil War. If you would like to stay in the spoiler-free zone, please avoid from 3mins 20secs to 9mins 07secs.

Heading up a Trampas-less panel of Dragonlance enthusiasts, Chuck delves into the lesser-explored parts of Ansalon like a podcasting Bear Grylls for locations to start a new campaign.
The hosts each pitch a location, providing some key points about the terrain, towns, and adventure hooks, backed up by some recommended reading.

Weldon also shares some ground-breaking, canon-bending lore about Northern Ergoth that surprises even his fellow hosts – and will shock you too. Even Astinus of Palanthas didn’t see this one coming.

Hosts: Chuck, Weldon, Ed, John, and Tim.

Welcome friends and fellow companions! After a rough intro, the usual suspects open the episode with a discussion about the recent Drivethrurpg Bounty, and tackle the contentious issue of loaded dice at the table. After that, their attention is turned to Hector’s letter and ensuring that the rest of the sorcery/wizardry questions are addressed with usual Canticle efficiency.

Weldon (Sage of Solace that he is) also provides a wealth of reading sources throughout the show. For those of you without a notebook handy, he suggests:

The King Priest trilogy
Legend of Huma
Defenders of Magic trilogy
Price of Courage (gaming supplement)
Soulforge (both the Choose Your Own Adventure, and the novel)
Brothers in Arms
Renegade Wizards
Towers of High Sorcery (3.5 game supplement)

Hosts: Chuck, Ed, Tristan, Weldon, and John.

Chuck, Tristan, Weldon, and Tim talk answer a letter about wizards of the Orders of High Sorcery: their history, the origin of wizardry talent, and their loyalties. They also talk about ‘Curse of Strahd’, the DM’s Guild, the VOID, whether George R.R. Martin should be held accountable for his slow progress, and the X-Wing miniatures game.
