Imagine playing Dungeons & Dragons as an elementary schooler, then a middle schooler, then a high schooler. Imagine how different the experience would be at each stage, and imagine how the game would change along with you. For the girls of Dungeons & Dragons & Daughters, they don't have to imagine it--they've lived it! In this episode, Allison speaks with Sam & Bertie, two of the sixteen-year-olds on Dungeons & Dragons & Daughters, and their father the DM Curt, about what it's been like to play the game since they first started their podcast seven years ago, and how their experience of the game has changed over the years.

Strengthening your mental wellness can be hard, so why not make it fun with D&D? In this episode, our guest Rachel Gilmore of Ready for Anything Counseling chats with Allison about her work as a licensed therapist who incorporates Dungeons & Dragons into her therapy work with college students & other adults. The mental health benefits of D&D--both in and out of the therapy setting - have only recently been studied, and include developing emotional intelligence, social skills, resilience, coping habits, & more. When you bring kids to the table, their mental wellness gets a boost!
If you or a loved one is facing a mental health crisis, we urge you to seek professional support. Therapy is widely available online (ex: www.betterhelp.com), in your local area, and, for those in the US, via the 988 national suicide & crisis hotline. Help is available. You are valuable. You are not alone.

The first season of The Kids Table is complete! Filmed back in 2022, this amateur actual-play campaign premiered in short episode form in December 2023, publishing kid-friendly episodes every other week until the finale this month--and we've been overwhelmed by the support from the community. In this special episode of Area of Effect, the cast answers fan questions and reflects on the filming process, what it's been like for now-nine year olds Beckett and Khloe to watch their six year old selves play, and what they're excited about for the upcoming season two.
