Adrian goes to hang out with his father's old D&D group and see how it was back when Adrian didn't exist. What a scary concept. We learned about shenanigans and the new age. Learning about how finding players was always kinda tough and that everything always evolves. Dungeons & Degrees Socials

I would say we are a TTRPG podcast with mostly D&D undertones but with this episode it's more of a Gross Observation Podcast with Dungeons & Degrees undertones. This one got out of hand real fast and it was never the same. So umm yeah some content warnings of Zach was in this one and it was never the same. The topics were muppet f****ng, 9/11, and an almost dentist story so umm I guess enjoy.  \

The duo sits down with Glaiza Champion and talks about scheduling cry sessions, waxing, and being in the TTRPG space and asking to be on streams and projects. Adrian was very befuddled with the waxing.

Apologies on the audio quality. Figured out that if I disconnect from the app I won't be able to be record my audio even when the recording states recording so I had to take the one track audio and try my best to merge it with the clean single track audio.

Adrian and Alex have a conversation with Grey about her many theories of the game of DnD. Grey and the gang talk about how different DMs use social interactions, filling in players with themes, and how to introduce new characters to the mix.

Another miniature maker from Critical Role to Dimension20 has been added to the list of amazing creators that the gang has been able to interview. Shane talks about how he started in his career and what he has been doing on his free time. An insight in the mind of the madness. It's quite beautiful.

This is the second go at the description due to editing issues. So I'm going to make it up as I go. The group talks about capitalisms and the activism David does, school work that Alex does, and the social work that Adrian does. Some real inspiring stuff is talked about and David brings it back to on topic because David is a premium guest.

The first half of the conversation with David about his new experience with D&D. The hardships of being older and jumping into the hobby and what he hopes to experience in the future. We talk about his projects for Lubbock's First Friday Art Trail and what it means to him. The ending is a bit abrupt due to the last part being done 50 minutes later and Adrian and David being bit loopy.

A wonderful episode about music and DnD podcasts. How Travis is in the position he is right now and his dedication to the craft of making music that sounds amazing and haunting. "Come for the horror, Stay for the Hurdy Gurdy!" There is a bit of dog talk and crazy places in the US talk that Adrian and Alex have a bit of an understanding of. Freaking Texas.

The group sits down and talks with Madeleine aka InquisitiveRogue and talk about the TTRPG she made, the ups and downs of TikTok, and just how we have been feeling about the state of being.

Paige from Adrian's Ithaka game comes to chat. Talking about her intro into D&D and her players from the past. Giving us her character voices and background and Adrian selfishly asks about his own campaign. It was a ruse all along. Adrian and Alex start talking heavy about life stuff and well I guess you can be the judge if Adrian should have cut it.

Adrian and Dave interview player JJ about the campaigns they running and we talk sneaky backstory of what these two have been before the Ithaka campaign. It's just a bunch of DUDES being GUYS. Playing pretend in their room online.

They talk about the origins of how they got into Dungeons & Dragons, the many games they DM and take part in, and the Halfblood Happy Hour.

What even is this podcast where Adrian invites his arch nemesis to talk with his co-host and they end up getting along swimmingly. Multiple attempts at kicking Adrian from the podcast. Titties, toilets, and a ton more. It's pure chaos and Adrian had no idea how to title this one properly because of it. They talk about Coming Together Naturally and the process of making a DnD podcast from TikTok.
