    Episode 1: Oh DeerHey, do you like DnD? Do you wanna listen to a couple idiots attempt to survive in a fantasy like environment? Well, we have a podcast for you!!! Well, eventually. If the reception is good. Here's to hoping this sounds as good as I hope it does, editing this one was a doozy. In this episode, Dem Boiz (a party consisting of a Dragonborn Druid, a Dragonborn Cleric, a Half-elf Bard, an Elf Sorcerer and a Tiefling Paladin... jesus this is a big party) go shopping. A dumb druid boi willingly walks into a trap and almost dies, and some bard that's really not too fond of spiders.PSA: The names Gandy and Legion were not inspired by the Adventure Zone in any way. I (Roman) am the only one aware of TAZ and when they created the character sheets I may have had a slight panic attack when I realized that it could be seen as a bad.Hosts featured in this episode: Adish, Holger, Jesse, Kevin, Shawn, RomanFind out more on the High Ground Cast website.This podcast is powered by Pinecast.
