We have another fantastic guest on the show this week; Sam AKA ClassicSamNYGM. Sam is a professional GM, role player, talk show host and all around big-time nerd. She has her own interview show on Twitch where she speaks with guests all over the nerd-realm and asks some really deep questions.
We asked her to tell everyone what it is like carving out your own niche in an industry already saturated with creators, and she has some great takes on so many TTRPG-related topics!
You can find Sam on Twitch or any social media under the handle ClassicSamNYGM for more content.Music by Jeremiah Warmbier

In our Potions segments, we like to practice our improv skills and make TTRPG things together on the fly.
In this Potions episode, we make what we call a Jobs Board, or a community posting place for all sorts of tasks and fetch quests that your players can pursue. This is a fun thing that you can add to your games if you need some downtime for your players. Let us know what you would put on your town's board!Music by Jeremiah Warmbier

Just in time for Pride month, we're excited to release this special interview with the wonderful Madison Generoux, who wrote a pretty cool paper called "DRIVEN BY DESIRE: FAN PRACTICES AND THE PROMISE OF QUEERNESS".
Basically we got to talk all about how fandoms can harbor safe spaces for Queerness, TTRPGs can allow people the ability to explore critical aspects of their identity, as well as just generally nerd out with a really cool friend of the show.

TW: This episode is predominately about death, in many fashions. While we don't go too heavily into details in manner of deaths, there is a little bit of talk of how characters die. If this is a touchy subject for you dear listener, than feel free to sit this one out.
In this one we talk a lot about what makes a PC's death memorable, including lots of really specific examples! Also posing the question: Do the Death mechanics in D&D5e work well enough, or is there something that can be improved upon?Music by Jeremiah Warmbier

Well Keisha certainly has. Many, many times.
Listen to Keisha teach herself, (and you) some of the ways that you can balance homebrew content in your games, so that way things are fun and also fair for all of your players.Music by Jeremiah Warmbier

Listen, we start this episode off by going down a deep, dark rabbit hole of all our new Roman Empire; the cartoons from the early to mid 2000's.
But once we get that out of the way, we actually talk a lot about all of the ways you can create minis, props and terrain if you don't want to flat out buy them!

Join the GalPals as we discuss other TTRPGs we have played (besides D&D), including what we liked about them or mechanics we could have done without. We also converse about which TTRPGS we haven't played yet, but want too.
All while skirting the delicate topic of what our Kinks may be.
