  • Hello and welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Today guest is DM David from the Crucible of Fate game show on YouTube, which is THE D&D Game Show! Join us as David gives us the breakdown of the Crucible and extends the invite to the listeners to create a character and apply to be on the show, because as David says, one of you out there is the champion of the Crucible of Fate you just don't know it yet.

    For today’s monster spotlight, we shine it bright on the Death Knight, a formidable foe that can deal some major damage. If you want to see it in action, check out the episode of Crucible of Fate that it’s featured on and watch it wreak havoc on a low level party.

    If you are interested in applying to the show so you can enter and test your skills in the Crucible, you can find the instructions to apply and all the show information at www.crucibleoffate.com. If you want to contact David to ask questions about the Crucible or D&D in general, you can reach him on Twitter @Crucible_ofFate or on Instagram @CrucibleofFate.

    You can also catch past episodes and watch current ones on YouTube here. 

    With that, I hope you enjoy today’s episode. If you are a DM wanting to be featured on a future episode send me an email at [email protected] or find me on Facebook at @EverydayDMPod.

  • Hello and welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Today my guest DM is Adam. Adam is joining us all the way from Finland with some awesome tips, tricks and stories about running D&D and other tabletop games for kids and using it as a tool to expand their imagination and teach them a foreign language! This was such a fun conversation, and I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did.

    The monster spotlight is bright and shines deep into the unknown, where nothing but horror awaits as it casts its light upon the horrible Aboleth. Adam gives us some details about this terrifying creature and just what makes it so spooky. Just remember kids, stay off the water, its full of the unknown and HP Lovecraft-style critters.

    The shoutouts and promotions Adam leaves us with today are:

    To the parents of all the kids that entrust him to lead them through this game, thank you!

  • Hello and welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Today my guest DM is Grey. In today’s episode we talk all about Theater of the Mind and how it can be useful and quick way to run a game of D&D. Grey gives us some great tips and tricks on how to run the game, including one of the best tricks which is simply remove distance and replace with time in combat. There are more amazing tips packed inside today’s episode, so I hope you enjoy!

    Grey brings us a 2-for-1 special on today’s Monster Spotlight. He starts by bringing the undead, replicating monster known as the Zombie Plague Spreader which is a nasty little creature that packs a punch. He follows it up with a spider from your nightmares, the Trap Door Spider which is a great way to scare low level parties.

    The shoutouts and promotions that Grey mentions throughout the episode are as follows:

    The Matthew Shardlake Series by C.J. Sansom

    Sly Flourish on YT

    His players: Grenmur Grassfoot, Cypress Grove, Hannelore Haldenzel, Levina Cloudstrider and Neb Rainwell

  • Hello and welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Today my guest DM is Sam. In today’s episode we talk about the different rule sets of D&D, including RAW (Rules as Written) vs. ROC (Rule of Cool… but everyone should call it ROC from now on… trying to start something here!). Sam does a great job breaking down these two rule sets and giving us stories and examples on how they are applied and what the pros and cons of each DM rule style.

    Today’s monster spotlight takes us on an adventure to way back when, as Sam pulls a monster from the depths of the D&D 2e universe and presents the Doll Golem. This terrifying creature will make you laugh, until you are dead. He also gives us a quick and dirty lesson on how 2e worked as he explains the stat block a bit which was cool for me and I hope you enjoy it as well.

    Today’s shoutouts belong to two awesome establishments in the Cleveland, OH area, so if you are listening from there or you find yourself in the area, go check these places out:

    The Tome Bookstore

    Cerberus Den

  • Hello and welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Today is our November roundtable and we have returning guest DMs Brad (the one who started it all from Episode 1) and Jude. On today’s episode we cover D&D and the Military, why its so big in that community, and how it can be therapeutic to those who have experienced tough situations. We then move into One D&D and in the absence of there being another new playtest PDF to review in time for this recording, we talk about our thoughts on it and what we are excited about as it moves towards releasing in the next few years. We finish it all out with Campfire Stories vol. 3 where Brad, Jude and myself bring one of our favorite stories from D&D to you all for your listening enjoyment!

    If you are interested in the VTT that Jude mentioned, you can check out Owlbear Rodeo for a simple yet effective and easy to use VTT interface for your online games.

    With that, I hope you enjoy today’s episode. If you are a DM wanting to be featured on a future episode send me an email at [email protected] or find me on Facebook at @EverydayDMPod.

  • Hello and welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Today’s guest DM is Alana. On today’s episode we talk all about lessons from a newer DM to other DMs out there. Alana gives great tips and advice for those looking to jump into the DM seat and has some great stories to share with us about her adventurers so far. Hope you enjoy today’s episode!

    For our monster spotlight today, we are doing things a little different with our first ever Monster Rankings! I provide four different monsters to Alana and see where she would rank them and if she loves them or yeets them. In today’s episode, I present to her the Banshee, the Band of Gloomcloaks, Hags, and last The Slender Man and his Slender Children Army. Where would you rank these foes? Let me know!

    If you want to catch more of Alana, get ready for her new podcast Fizzwick’s Counseling, set to premiere soon wherever you get your podcasts!

  • Welcome to the slightly revamped edition of Everyday Dungeon Master! Inside you will find new Icebreakers, new intros, and new music for your listening pleasure! Hope you enjoy!

    Hello and welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Today’s guest DM is Mike. On today’s episode we talk all about tips and tricks for the Everyday Dungeon Master New & Old. Mike talks about the importance of being your own style of DM, not listening to negative Nancies out there because everything doesn’t suck and the importance of understanding that your players do NOT need you to be perfect as most players are just happy you are willing to run the game for them!

    For our monster spotlight today, Mike shines a light on the ghostly, incorporeal Banshee! This terrifying creature is low on the CR (depending on the party level) but high on the punch with a wail that can drop your players straight to 0 HP. This high stakes game makes it high on the thrills is that is what your party is into!

    Also, you should check out Mike’s actual-play podcast called The Hired Swords. These one-hour bite sized episodes pack a punch and are a great time!

    With that, I hope you enjoy today’s episode. If you are a DM wanting to be featured on a future episode send me an email at [email protected] or find me on Facebook at @EverydayDMPod.

  • Hello and welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Today’s guest DM is William. This episode is all about running an effective session 0 which is one of the most important elements and should serve as the official kickoff and start of any D&D campaign. We talk tips, tricks and elements you will want to cover in a Session 0 and why its so important to push the importance of communication on your players!

    For our monster spotlight today, William brings the terrifying and classic Mimic as well as the Rust Monster. If you want to learn more about how to build these foes into your D&D campaign, hit those hyperlinks which should take you to their stat block and maybe some lore behind them! I love these monsters and I hope you will find a way to include them in your next campaign!

    In this episode, we chat about running spooky games and how to build tension at the table.

To end the episode, we finish with Campfire Stories (volume 2!) where we go around the metaphorical campfire and tell spooky stories from our real life experiences, because listen… its HALLOWEEN!!

    I hope you all have a great week, and a very, very HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Go eat candy, spook children and dress up if that is your thing. You deserve it!

  • Hello and welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Today’s guest for our show is Dungeon Master Sam! In today’s episode we talk about collaborative world building and Sam shares with us a unique way to build a world with your players that promotes player buy-in and attachment to your world and thus your game as a whole. It was a great conversation with some great tips, including the tip to really play the game for the players present at your table, which is very important.

    The monster entering the spotlight for this episode is a homebrewed creation, inspired from the podcast The Adventure Zone. Sam brings the terrifying and misunderstood Astral Jellyfish. It would be accurate to say that this is more of an experience than an encounter. I loved learning about it and the way Sam used it in his campaign, and I hope you will take it away as inspiration for a monster in yours!

    Talking about knowing the players at your table, and the different player types out there, check out the video by Matt Colville that Sam mentions as a must-watch by clicking here.

In today’s episodes, we dig into what it is like to run an evil-aligned game including some tips and tricks on how to run one efficiently, how it differs from a standard game of D&D and how to ensure it doesn't just turn into a murderhobo rampage. We also get John’s take on the new One D&D coming out in 2024 as someone who is a true veteran of the game, having played and DM’d every edition.

    Today’s Monster Spotlight is a classic. DM John presents the terrifying, the undying and powerful Lich! John covers Lich lore and how rich it can be as well as gives a great tip for how to run a Lich encounter. Remember, if your players walk away from the table saying that was easy… you probably didn’t play the Lich as best as you could have. Go check out the Lich and if it works, build an arc or story for your players so they can experience it for themselves!

    As mentioned on today’s episode, John (and I) are big supporters of The Silver Key Lounge located in Mesa, Arizona. This is an awesome board game/TTRPG/bar space that provides a relaxing, comfortable and fun environment to play your favorite TTRPG or board game. If you live in the area, or you are just visiting, go check them out!

    With that, I hope you enjoy today’s episode. If you are a DM wanting to be featured on a future episode send me an email at [email protected] or find me on Twitter and Facebook at @EverydayDMPod.

  • Welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Our guest Dungeon Master today is Alex! In today’s episode, we talk about the art of re-skinning monsters, classes, sub-classes, spells, etc. to make your DM dreams and player’s dreams come true. We encourage any DM out there to allow your player’s wishes for their characters to come to life (within reason of course!) It’s a great conversation, and I hope you learn a lot from it, like I did!

    Today’s Monster Spotlight brings us to the realm of Shadowfell, where the angry, sad, frustrated, etc. Sorrowsworn awaits us! These beasties feed off the emotion they represent and they sure are nasty! DM Alex does a great job talking about these creatures and so I encourage all of you to go out and take a look at them and see if they can fit into your game.

    As mentioned on today’s episode, Alex is a cosplayer and when he is not DMing or playing D&D he is cosplaying and doing an awesome job at it! You can find him on Instagram where you can check out all his cosplay goodness @sante_cosplays.

    With that, I hope you enjoy today’s episode. If you are a DM wanting to be featured on a future episode send me an email at [email protected] or find me on Twitter and Facebook at @EverydayDMPod.

  • Welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Our guest Dungeon Master today is Adam! In today’s episode we talk about the importance of passing D&D on to the next generation so that this incredible hobby stays alive and in circulation amongst the generations. Adam brings some awesome tips and tricks on how to tailor the game for the young players in your life and what has worked for him when including his children in his own D&D games. I had a blast talking to Adam, and I hope you also enjoy the conversation.

    Today’s Monster Spotlight shines a light in the darkest of corners in the abandoned mansions littered across the multiverse. The Living Doll, found in The Wild Beyond the Witchlight campaign book, is a creepy CR 2 monster that you can easily pair with another set of minion type monsters to make a challenging, horror themed encounter. Do you really want to come face to face with a doll that can spin its head backwards and regain HP every turn? I wouldn’t. Check out this creepy foe, and go throw it at your players!

    Also as mentioned on today’s podcast, Adam is the business partner in charge of all things print media here at Find Familiar Media. You can reach Adam and Heath by contacting us at [email protected] or on Facebook and Twitter @findfammedia.

    With that, I hope you enjoy today’s episode. If you are a DM wanting to be featured on a future episode send me an email at [email protected] or find me on Twitter and Facebook at @EverydayDMPod.
