The unofficial D&D podcast that helps to put humans back into humanity & breathe life into your games

22/01/2025

Alright! The last episode of Season 5 is going to be our Parleys at the Platter #3. Since the new 2024 rules premiered, I thought I would be lovely to have a conversation on game design, play, and D&D. I’m so happy to have been able to speak with Dr. Paul Gestwicki, Alyssa Visscher, Benjamin Huffman, and Mark Thompson!

I’m joined by Randall Hampton of “Little Game Masters TTRPG and Books”. He brings us his own character today, Zaxibus. He’s a retired adventurer who started a tavern (sounds familiar!) called Prickly Pete’s Pouring Station, and the heroic horse graces the place! Zaxibus needs your help to recover a fallen friend’s favored piece of jewelry.

Howdy everyone! So, I’m trying something new. For the past year, I’ve been having fun running one-on-one D&D with a friend, and it’s been wildly fun and creative for me, to engage with our game a little bit every day. So wouldn’t you like to as well? Go to StartPlaying and see!

My next guest is Hannah Wright, the creator of the Inn Between Podcast! We end up creating a pair of best buddies in the Lich King’s Army: Steinway the tween lackey and Mabel the Skeleton. They fly in an advanced balloon vehicle…but they are in desperate need of fuel!
