  • Aspiring GM

    I have been writing my own homebrew campaign as my GM debut. I have never played, much less been a GM/DM but I want to dive in head first. I’m on episode 50 and powering through every episode! You speak very clearly about the points you want to make and keep things entertaining while also heavily educational. more

  • Great for 5e PHB/DMG interpretations alone

    Really like the read throughs of the PHB and DMG. I think we care about different things (I care about campaign building instead of world building) but overall, has lots of useful advice. If you are new or less new to DMing, I would say check it out.
