Rom Com X-Mas Bomb!

Mon, 30 Dec 2024 08:00:00 +0000

Love is strange. Sometimes it finds you at the office holiday party…. Sometimes it finds you over a cup of cocoa.... And sometimes it finds you with a bomb strapped to your heart and a horny Santa Claus forcing you to perform in a fucked up romantic comedy….

This is that third kind of love.

Waves below a changin'

I seen my love's long Auburn tresses

Ahead, behind, below

[refrain] O how I miss her so

[solo] For years I called my Auburn love

The only one for me

For years I've been without her love

Sailing 'pon the sea

[refrain] Years above the trees

[solo] The waves of green do shift to warm

As far as I can see

The green to Auburn comes each year

No longer, does she

This season is sure to be the talk of the ton as we play ⁠Good Society⁠, a game of estates and balls, sly glances and turns about the garden–at least on the surface. Underneath is a game about social ambition, family obligation, and breath-taking, heart-stopping longing.

My First Dungeon is the tabletop role-playing podcast where we help players learn new games and make each one better than the last. Each season we choose a new game and a different GM to run it. Then we circle back around to discuss what went right, what went wrong, and how we can make our next game ever better.

Elliot Davis sits down again with Brian Flaherty to review and critique the first ever playtest of the never-before-played TTRPG Schröedinger's Cats while also responding to player feedback about the game from Kevin Bauer, Abby Hepworth, and Julia Schroeder.

This is a three part series. Episode one is all about prep, where we will focus on building the session, understanding the GM’s worries, and setting them up for success. Then it's out of the frying pan and into the fire in episode two where our nascent Game Master will run their very first game for a group of experienced players. Then in episode three we will look back on that first game and discuss what went right, what went wrong, and how we can improve.

10 Candles (Part 3 w/ Elliot Davis)

Sun, 01 Jan 2023 07:00:00 +0000

Brian and Elliot discuss their first ever game of 10 Candles and go over what went right, what went wrong, and how to make the next session even better. These things are true. The world is dark...and we are alive. This season on My First Dungeon we are delving deep into darkness in the tragic horror game 10 Candles. This isn’t a game about survival, there are no survivors. Our characters will die, without question and without quarrel. Instead, it is a game about hope, and how it can be found even in the darkest of moments.
