Grab your juice boxes and initiative trackers—it's time to run D&D for the most chaotic party of all: children. In this RPGBOT.Masterclass Remastered episode, the hosts are joined by educator and Dungeon Master David Lemke, who shares his expertise on running tabletop RPGs—particularly Dungeons & Dragons—for children. The conversation blends pedagogical insight with practical game mastering advice, offering tools, tips, and examples from David's real-world experience leading kid-friendly adventures. From session structure and tone to safety and engagement strategies, this episode equips GMs of all levels with the knowledge they need to run rewarding, responsible games for younger players. David Lemke DnD Adventure Club RPGBOT.Podcast Episodes DnD Adventure Club w/David Lemke – RPGBOT.News S3E58 RPGBOT.Podcast Bonus Episode – The Wild Beyond the Witchlight Topics Covered How running D&D for kids differs from traditional adult tables The benefits of TTRPGs for child development and social growth Building age-appropriate adventures with clear stakes and structure Using repetition and scaffolding for younger players' comprehension Managing attention spans and behavior without losing the fun Tips for introducing mechanics gradually over time Player safety, parental involvement, and appropriate content Teaching narrative agency and consequences in a kid-friendly way Group management in mixed-age or mixed-skill settings Customizing rulesets to better fit young players' needs Dealing with disruptive players and setting table expectations Tools, props, and miniatures that help children stay engaged Encouraging creativity without overwhelming new players Favorite stories and learning moments from David's past games Key Questions Answered How do you start a new D&D group for kids who've never played before? What kinds of monsters, settings, and themes work best for young adventurers? What house rules or simplifications can help keep the game moving smoothly? What are the educational benefits of playing D&D as a child? Key Takeaways Structure and Consistency Are Crucial Children thrive with predictable session formats, recurring NPCs, and simple mechanics introduced in layers. Fun Comes First Prioritize engagement and joy. Mechanics can wait—story, agency, and laughter are more important than perfect rules compliance. Rules Can Be Training Wheels Simplified rulesets or modified stat blocks help children feel empowered without cognitive overload. Session Length Matters Games for younger players are typically best kept to 60–90 minutes, with physical movement or breaks built in. Age-Appropriate Themes Tone down horror, violence, and complex moral ambiguity. Focus on problem-solving, teamwork, and simple, heroic stakes. Incorporate Physicality Props, dice towers, maps, and miniatures provide tactile feedback and keep attention focused. Safety Tools Aren't Just for Adults Use check-ins, “stop” mechanics, and clear expectations for behavior to build a safe, inclusive table. Behavior = Feedback Disruptive behavior is often a sign that the pacing or content needs adjusting, not that the child is “bad at D&D.” Parental Involvement Helps Keeping parents informed and engaged (or even including them at the table) helps build trust and supports continuity. Roleplay Builds Life Skills Improv, empathy, decision-making, and consequence are all transferable life lessons baked into the game.

The summer of 2025 has been a time of chaos. A time of confusion. And a time of distress for many Americans. But for independent Americans it's been a little bit different. In between all of the moments of turmoil have been glimmers of hope, a chance at a better future. And that better future is being driven by independents. From Jim Walden's upstart mayoral campaign in New York City to the Badlands of South Dakota and Brian Bengs' renegade Senate run, to last episode's guest from the great state of Idaho, Todd Achilles — there's been a lot coming from independents to get excited about.  And now there's more! Independent Navy vet Dan Osborn (@OsbornForSenate) is back in the fight. And this time, he's running against Nebraska's other MAGA Republican Senator billionaire: Pete Ricketts. It's the ultimate David vs Goliath showdown. And this time, Dan's got some experience, a network, name recognition and is hitting the ground running. Dan served in the Navy and later joined the Army National Guard. He's a steamfitter, industrial mechanic, and a badass labor union leader. He led a successful strike at Kellogg's Omaha plant in 2021. And ran for Senate in 2024–narrowly losing to incumbent Deb Fischer. But at the same time, Dan laid down the foundation for this run while inspiring a new generation of independent leaders across the country. His race was a direct challenge to the party system and it showed everyone a new way to run—and offered a new vision for what a political race can look like. If you've listened to the show for a while now, you'll know Dan and what he's meant to the movement. If you're new here, get ready to get fired up. In the immortal words of Vin Diesel, “We live for this….” Stuff.  And there's more as your host Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) rips into Ukraine, Waltz, SignalGate, Hegseth and all of the latest national security news that you need to stay on top of. And a megadose of inspiration with a quick hit on Youman Wilder—a New York City little league coach that stood up to ICE and has inspired millions. Because Independent Americans is built on the Righteous Media 5 Is: independence, integrity, information, inspiration and impact. And this episode has it in spades. Independent Americans is your trusted place for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope. It's the truth beyond the headlines–and light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It's built for the 49% of Americans that proudly call themselves independent and we're proud to stand with you.  -Learn more about Dan Osborn and his race on his campaign website.  -Join the movement.

In the final hour, Sportsnet's own Luke Fox joins Brent and Daniele to get into the NHL offseason.

Hey hey BATT Family! Thanks for coming on back for the next full episode of the show! We apologize for the extra week on the release of this episode. Things just haven't been slowing down. We're considering taking a small recording break during the month of August to just slow down, finalize a bunch of things (the website finally!), and play all the new games. Oh and there may be a new logo coming too! OOooo. Regardless! This week is a fun one! Due to popular demand, we returned to the Mechanic's Shop to talk Trick Taking. Then Mark got Scott to play one of his favourite dudes on a map games, and then we talked a wide variety of the games in the Table/Shelf/Trade segment. We did choose to leave off the rotating segment this week due to length, but you'll find that in the next Odds and Ends episode, due out the week of GenCon! Come back on our next episode for our GenCon preview! --- This episode's segments: 00:00:00 - Intro 00:00:46 - What's Been on the Table 00:02:57 - The Mechanics Shop: Trick Taking 00:42:13 - Why Did I Play That: Nexus Ops 00:50:05 - Table / Shelf / Trade 01:06:57 - Contact Info / Sponsors  01:08:21 - Outro ---   Notes! 1) This one was a beast to edit - AGAIN! Between us going off on huge tangents during the what's been on the table segment (leaving that bare two minutes behind) and having to make the trick taking conversation followable, it just took a minute.  2) One of the fun parts of the Euchre conversation was just talking through all the variations styles of playing a game like it. Scott and I played the same game but in incredibly different ways and that's not even including all the playstyle differences. For being as proscribed of a game as it can be, there's a lot of moving parts and calculations to be made. 3) There is an argument that Mark is being a hypocrite by saying he doesn't like bidding games and then picking Lunar because it needs you to win a certain amount of tricks. The difference between the two, and why I defend this, is that bids are normally placed before a round happens whereas needing to win a range of tricks like in Lunar allows you to adjust your play on the fly and gives some flexibility that you don't have to hit a specific number.  4) Brian Boru has since left Mark's collection. That said, Arcs has come in since as well, so you'll get some content around that soon enough. --- You can email us at boardallthetimegaming@gmail.com.

It's about what your mind is doing.Or more accurately… what your mind stops doing.Inside this episode I'm breaking down:

In this episode of Unearthed, co-hosts Joe Cavatoni and John Reade, Senior Market Strategists for the World Gold Council, are joined by Amanda Krichman, Chief Operating Officer of Funds at the World Gold Council. Together, they unpack the fundamentals of gold-backed ETFs, taking a closer look at how these products work and address some of the most common myths in the market. The conversation covers everything from how gold ETFs are created and redeemed to the role of authorised participants (APs) in maintaining price stability and liquidity. Together, they also reflect on 20 years since the launch of GLD, the first U.S.-listed gold ETF, and explore how ETFs have revolutionised access to gold for both retail and institutional investors. Notable Quotes:  “An ETF, or as it's known, an exchange-traded fund, pools assets from many different investors and gives them an easy option to buy into a diversified product. They'll buy shares of this product, which will allow them to get access to many different underlying investments.” — Amanda Krichman   “I've seen it with my own eyes. For the two products that we work on with GLD and GLDM, the gold is there. The shares of the fund won't be released until the physical gold bars are delivered and allocated within the accounts for each of the ETFs.” — Amanda Krichman  “You might be wondering, how do these authorised participants make money? It's based on the arbitrage of how that's trading in the secondary market and to help keep the price as close as possible, less expensive to the underlying value of the gold per share.”  — Amanda Krichman  Disclaimer:  For additional information on SPDR® Gold Shares (GLD®) and SPDR® Gold MiniShares (GLDM®), please visit www.spdrgoldshares.com.   The information is for educational purposes only and is not intended to constitute a recommendation, investment advice, or offer for the purchase or sale of gold, any gold-related products or services or any other products, services, securities or financial instruments.

In this week's mini-episode we discuss the Red Queen effect, a hypothesis based on a quote from Alice in Wonderland that is oddly applicable to science and Jiu-Jitsu! It teaches us that sometimes we need to keep moving just to maintain our position.

This episode of The Kriya Yoga Podcast, When You Know Samadhi explores the philosophical and practical aspects of meditation within the framework of Kriya Yoga and the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. The main topics include: The Purpose of Meditation Meditation is presented not as a relaxation technique but as a means to access one's true, timeless essence. The goal is the cessation of mental fluctuations to recognize the stillness and fullness at the core of being. Commitment to Practice The importance of long-term dedication is emphasized. Students are encouraged to remain engaged with the practices over time, as deep realization requires persistent application rather than brief exposure. Letting Go of the Ego True yoga involves dissolving the ego—the "personage" that clings to identity and personality. The path is one of surrender and relinquishment of attachments to fully experience spiritual freedom. Outer and Inner Limbs of Yoga The essay delineates between the outer practices (yamas, niyamas, asana, pranayama, pratyahara) and the inner practices (dharana, dhyana, samadhi). Mastery of the outer limbs is seen as foundational for accessing the inner experiences. The Mechanics of Meditation Meditation (dhyana) is defined as uninterrupted focus on a single object. This focus must be maintained for 12 breaths to be considered meditation, and 144 breaths to reach samadhi. These thresholds offer a concrete structure for understanding meditative depth. Modern Distractions and Spiritual Focus The essay criticizes modern distractions like social media and “spiritual doom scrolling.” Instead, it advocates for focused, authentic engagement with traditional texts and practices to cultivate concentration and spiritual discipline. Spiritual Transformation and Evolution Spiritual growth is described as a transformation akin to evolution—from human to divine being (deva). This requires pouring the energy and habits of the old self into a new, higher mode of being. One-Pointedness and Daily Practice One-pointed focus (ekagrata) is vital not only in meditation but in daily activities. Practicing concentrated awareness throughout life enhances the capacity for deeper meditation.

Pascal Papathemelis: From Mechanics to Human Factors—How Scrum Masters Grow Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Pascal shares his evolution as a Scrum Master, moving from focusing purely on the mechanics of Scrum to understanding the critical importance of human factors. Early in his career, Pascal worked with teams that struggled to achieve sprint goals, with stories floating from one sprint to another. Through retrospectives and continuous improvement, he learned essential tips like not taking too much into sprints and making stories smaller.  However, Pascal's biggest transformation came when he shifted focus to human elements - involving everyone in the team, improving collaboration during refinement, and developing people's skills and attitudes. He emphasizes that every person is an individual with the intention to be their best, and a good Scrum Master must sense when something is wrong and create safe environments for open conversations. Pascal highlights the importance of corridor conversations and coffee machine breakthroughs, especially before COVID, and stresses the need to invest effort in how teams start, using models like Tuckman's team growth model and Diana Larsen's Team Liftoff approach. In this segment, we also refer to the episode with Arne Roock, about the importance of team design and setup in the success of teams. Self-reflection Question: How might shifting your focus from Scrum mechanics to human factors transform the way you support your team's growth and collaboration?

LaNorris Sellers might be the most intriguing QB prospect in the 2026 NFL Draft. Standing at 6'3”, 242 lbs, the South Carolina signal-caller brings rare size, athleticism, SEC experience into the 2025 college football season.
