This week we talk about something that's very important to both of us, Etiquette!!! small fork on the left napkin on the lap, and so on.

We're just passionate :)

This Episode we talk about Ben and Scott's least favorite part of Dungeons and Dragons, THAT'S RIGHT!!! We said it!!! WE DON'T LIKE COMBAT!!! But it is important so we talked about it for 90 minutes. Well, we complained for like 15 minutes then talked about it for 75 minutes, but its comes down to the same thing. Combat is a integral part of the game.

This week, we get back to our roots to talk about building challenges. We'll go over different ways to use about challenges, the differences between engaging and aggravating, and the purpose of a challenge as we see it. Come and learn the finer art of tripping your friends.
