Welcome to episode #261 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off with our CDL overview, as we have some teams in dire situations post major 1, particularly Cloud 9, as its been announced that they have dropped their entire roster. We give our thoughts on this move, and what this means for the future of that CDL spot, as well as any future players who sign to that team. Is it the right move to join that organization, or simply wait for a better offer from the CDL? We then move towards some rumors regarding Modern Warfare 3, in that it may be up for a multiplayer remaster. We discuss the idea of remastered CODs becoming a thing, and if that is where COD needs to go in the future. Finally, we end with talks about the teased Modern Warfare 4, and how there are talks that it is making the correct steps to be a good successor to Black Ops 7's multiplayer experience. We share what we feel next year's COD needs to do to be successful. What are your thoughts on the Cloud 9 situation? Was it a bad move to drop their whole roster? Should new owners come in and take that spot? What do you think of our takes on remastered CODs? Should they come back, or do those old games need to stay in the past? Finally, what do you think Modern Warfare 4 needs to do to be a successful game, and what should it avoid doing? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.Follow us:Twitter: @TheCODCasualsInstagram: @TheCODCasualsTikTok: @TheCODCasualsContact us:Business Inquiries: TheCODCasuals@gmail.com
Ritual spellcasting is the part of tabletop roleplaying games where wizards stop blowing things up for ten minutes and instead argue about chalk circles, incense pricing, and whether chanting counts as a somatic component if you're holding snacks. In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we dive deep into D&D ritual casting mechanics, explore how Pathfinder and 5e ritual spells change encounter pacing, and discuss how to turn out-of-combat magic systems into storytelling tools instead of bookkeeping exercises. Because sometimes the real magic isn't Fireball — it's spending eleven minutes summoning a familiar while your party rogue steals your candles. Show Notes Ritual magic sits in a fascinating design space across modern tabletop RPG systems, particularly in Dungeons & Dragons 5e ritual spellcasting rules, where casting without expending spell slots reshapes resource management and exploration play. In this episode, the hosts explore how ritual casting in tabletop RPGs functions both as a mechanical subsystem and as a narrative lever for immersion. Rather than treating ritual spells like background noise, we discuss ways GMs and players can frame non-combat spellcasting mechanics as collaborative storytelling moments that reinforce tone, pacing, and worldbuilding. The conversation begins with a mechanical breakdown of how ritual casting works in D&D, including class access, preparation requirements, and opportunity cost. We compare approaches to ritual magic systems in Pathfinder and other TTRPGs, highlighting how design differences affect party planning and gameplay tension. Along the way, we touch on optimization considerations for players researching best ritual spells for utility and exploration, and how ritual access can shape character identity outside of combat encounters. From there, the discussion pivots toward table culture and presentation. Ritual casting is an opportunity to create sensory texture — chanting, environmental interaction, symbolic components — and we outline practical techniques for GMs seeking to immerse players through magical storytelling. This includes pacing strategies, spotlight balance, and methods for integrating ritual outcomes into ongoing campaign arcs rather than treating them as isolated mechanics. Finally, we address common pitfalls. Overuse can trivialize challenges, while underuse wastes design space. By framing rituals as collaborative scenes instead of background automation, tables can unlock deeper engagement with fantasy roleplaying immersion techniques and reinforce the feeling that magic is mysterious, costly, and meaningful. Whether you're optimizing your spellbook or building cinematic magical moments, this episode provides both system mastery and creative inspiration for getting more out of ritual spellcasting at your table. Key Takeaways Ritual spellcasting in D&D 5e allows slot-free utility casting but requires time investment and preparation planning Understanding how ritual casting works in tabletop RPG systems helps players optimize exploration and resource management Many best ritual spells for roleplaying immersion shine outside combat and define character identity GMs can elevate non-combat magic storytelling by emphasizing sensory description and table participation Ritual scenes are opportunities to reinforce pacing, spotlight sharing, and narrative tone Comparing ritual mechanics across Pathfinder and 5e highlights how system design affects tension and preparation Avoid trivializing obstacles — meaningful cost or risk keeps ritual magic engaging Treat rituals as collaborative scenes rather than background mechanics to enhance immersion Strong presentation transforms fantasy ritual casting experiences into memorable campaign moments Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

Remastered edition: re‑edited and shortened for clarity and pace.A cargo aircraft built for tanks, not toddlers. A city collapsing in April 1975. And a young Air Force medic from Flint who boarded anyway.In this Radio Free Flint interview, Flint‑born Air Force hero Sgt. Phillip Wise recounts the harrowing crash of an Air Force transport plane loaded with hundreds of orphaned Vietnamese‑American babies, his survival in the cargo hold, and his decades‑long quest to honor the lost and the rescued.Wise traces his journey from Flint Southwestern High School to the U.S. Air Force, where he served as a senior medical technician on aeromedical missions across Southeast Asia. When President Gerald Ford authorized Operation Babylift to evacuate Vietnamese orphans, Wise's unit transitioned from the DC-9 Nightingale to the massive C-5A Galaxy to move hundreds of children in a single flight.Fifteen minutes after takeoff from Saigon, the rear cargo doors failed. The aircraft rapidly decompressed. Hydraulics were crippled. The crew fought to return to Tan Son Nhut Air Base before the C-5A crash-landed in rice fields outside the city.The disaster became one of the most devastating aviation accidents of the Vietnam War.Wise survived the cargo compartment impact and later received the Airman's Medal for heroism. He reflects on rescue efforts, months of recovery, reunions with now-adult adoptees, and the complicated legacy of Operation Babylift—heroism, loss, identity, and the ethics of wartime evacuation.This is a firsthand account of the 1975 Operation Babylift crash, told by a Michigan veteran who lived through one of the final tragedies of the Vietnam War.Sgt. Wise wrote the book "Fragile Delivery: Operation Babylift" which sheds light on the Boeing C-5A crash. His writing sheds light on the doomed flight, the brave men and women involved in Operation Babylift, and one man's story of near-impossible survival in the horrifying shadow of death as the plane split violently apart in swampy rice paddies.Sgt Wise was the only crew on the cargo area of the plane to survive the tragic plane crash. Wise told the Flint Journal, "The doctors thought I would be a vegetable. They thought I wouldn't be able to see out of my left eye or to walk,” the Flint resident and decorated veteran said. “I came through with 20-20 vision. I became a mailman. I missed one day in 13 years."The U.S. Air Force bestowed upon Phillip Wise a medal for his heroism for his part in the military operation to rescue these children. Phillip Wise is part of a veterans group Peaceful Warriors who speak across Michigan and the US about their role in helpThe Mitten Channel is a network of podcasts.

Remastered edition: re-edited and shortened for clarity and pace.We trace Jeff Natchez's path from Flint open gyms and sandlots to a Detroit Tigers draft pick, rookie ball under a young Jim Leyland, and a second career in optometry. Honest reflections on choices, mentors, and coming home frame a story about resilience and community.A Flint kid grows up in the city's golden era, spends every spare hour on open courts and dusty diamonds, and learns how far grit can take you. That kid becomes a Tigers draft pick, rides the rookie-ball buses with a 26-year-old Leyland, and shares a field with future stars like Lance Parrish and Mark Fidrych. Then spring training delivers the phone call that changes the dream's shape—and what happens next is the heart of this conversation.We sit down with optometrist and former multi-sport standout Jeff Natchez to trace the full arc: Saginaw Valley showdowns with Flint Northern and Pontiac Central, the scout who believed early, and the surreal shock of patrolling right field at Tiger Stadium as a high school senior. Jeff opens up about the hard fork at eighteen—college under Bo Schembechler or a pro contract—and why hindsight suggests a different choice, even as the minors delivered priceless lessons in professionalism, poise, and preparation. The details are vivid and human: cold opening nights in Clinton, Iowa, clubhouse laughter, and the way Leyland handled teenagers like a steady metronome.The turn toward optometry isn't a retreat—it's a reinvention. A long drive to Las Vegas sparks a plan, Ferris State University sharpens the craft, and a role in Reno with an ophthalmologist builds a second life anchored in precision and care. Jeff explains how the same fundamentals that defined Flint—accountability, mentorship, and access—shaped his work and his return home. We also honor the mentors who mattered, from playground supervisors who taught the basics to local legends like Rick Leach who showed what “it” looks like up close.If you love Michigan sports history, underdog resilience, or stories about changing course with grace, this episode belongs on your list.

Death in Dungeons & Dragons is weird. Sometimes it's a tragic, character-defining moment that reshapes the campaign. Other times it's a minor inconvenience solved by rooting around in the cleric's pockets for a diamond and a receipt. In this episode, we crack open the lid on resurrection mechanics—how revivify, raise dead, and resurrection actually work, why death saving throws matter less than you think, and how coming back from the dead can be anything from epic storytelling fuel to a mildly awkward coffee break. Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we dive deep into resurrection mechanics in Dungeons & Dragons, breaking down how character death really works—and why raising the dead is both a mechanical safety net and a narrative landmine. We cover the full spectrum of D&D death rules, starting with death saving throws, stabilizing, and the fine line between "down but not out" and "start pricing diamonds." From there, we examine the most common resurrection spells—Revivify, Raise Dead, and Resurrection—comparing spell timing, material components, and the hidden costs that often get ignored at the table. The discussion digs into why resurrection spells can undermine tension if handled casually, how consequences of death in D&D can strengthen long-term storytelling, and when it's okay for resurrection to be fast, cheap, and reliable. We also talk about optional rules, narrative gates, and DM-side tools that make bringing characters back to life in tabletop RPGs feel meaningful without punishing players for bad dice luck. Whether you're a player wondering how safe your character really is or a DM trying to balance drama with fun, this episode is your practical, no-nonsense guide to how resurrection works in D&D 5e—and how to make it better at your table. Key Takeaways Death saving throws are a buffer, not a guarantee—most characters die because of timing, not bad luck Revivify vs Raise Dead vs Resurrection is less about power level and more about narrative impact Material components, especially diamonds, are the real currency of immortality in D&D Easy resurrection lowers tension unless DMs introduce narrative or social consequences Resurrection mechanics work best when death still means something, even if it isn't permanent Clear expectations around death and revival prevent table-side frustration and tonal whiplash Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

In this remastered episode, Dr. Allen Williams challenges conventional thinking around livestock genetics by making a bold case: true genetic performance begins in the soil. Rather than focusing solely on EPDs, DNA markers, or breed selection, this episode dives deep into how regenerative agriculture and soil biology drive epigenetics, animal health, and productivity. Dr. Williams explains how functioning ecosystems—built on living soil, active microbes, and adaptive grazing—unlock the genetic potential already present in livestock. This episode connects soil health, forage quality, and animal performance in a practical, systems-based framework that producers can apply immediately.

At level 11, the Cleric stops being "the healer" and starts being "the department of cosmic corrections." Need a miracle? You've got it. Need a battlefield reorganized? Also you. Need the DM to quietly reconsider every encounter they prepped? Congratulations: you just prepared Heroes' Feast and learned that your god's job description includes "professional problem solver, part-time artillery, full-time vibe check." Welcome to Cleric 11–20, where your faith is strong, your spell list is irresponsible, and your party suddenly thinks every plan can be solved by "ask the Cleric." Show Notes Episode Overview In this episode of RPGBOT.Podcast, we break down how to build and play a D&D 5e Cleric from levels 11–20, where your character graduates from "durable support" to "divine Swiss Army catastrophe." We cover late-tier class features, high-level spell priorities, feat and gear considerations, and how to stay impactful when the game gets weird (and the monsters start having resumes). What Changes at Levels 11–20 Your spell slots get absurd: 6th–9th level spells aren't just stronger—they change what "a problem" even means. Channel Divinity becomes a resource-management minigame: It's no longer "use it when you remember." It's "use it to control the pace of encounters." Your role expands: You're still support… but also control, emergency reset button, and occasionally the party's primary win condition. Late-Tier Cleric Priorities (The "Don't Waste Your Turn" Checklist) Action economy matters more than ever: high-level combats punish "I guess I cast Cure Wounds." Concentration discipline: pick the concentration spell that wins the fight, then protect it like it owes you money. Defenses scale or you get deleted: AC, saves, and positioning keep your miracles online. High-Level Spell Picks That Define Your Cleric Rather than listing everything, we focus on categories of "spells that win sessions," and how to choose within them: Battlefield control & tempo (deny actions, reshape positioning, force bad choices) Pre-fight power (buffs that make the party feel like they're cheating) Hard counters & problem solvers (condition removal, anti-magic, planar nonsense) Clutch buttons (resets, revives, "nope" spells for when the DM smiles too confidently) Feats, Ability Scores, and "High-Level Practicality" When to cap Wisdom, when to take resilience/defensive feats, and when a utility feat is secretly the MVP. War Caster vs. Resilient (Con) (and why your table's encounter style decides this). The "I'm level 15 and still miss" problem: improving reliability via positioning, spell choice, and save targeting. Gear and Magic Items (What You Want and Why) We talk about item functions instead of shopping lists: Concentration protection Mobility and positioning Defensive layers (AC, saves, resistances) Spellcasting flexibility (extra casts, broadened options, panic buttons) Playing Cleric at Tier 4 Without Becoming a Solo Game High-level Clerics can accidentally steal the spotlight. We discuss: How to enable party hero moments while still being decisive When to solve the plot and when to support the plot How to coordinate with the DM so divine power feels epic, not adversarial Key Takeaways Tier 4 Clerics are not "healers," they're strategists. Healing keeps the party alive; control and prevention win fights. Your best turns usually aren't reactive. Preempt threats with positioning, concentration, and proactive tempo spells. Protect concentration like it's your hit points. You can lose the fight without losing HP if you drop the spell that mattered. Pick one job per encounter and do it violently well. Control, buff, counter, rescue—trying to do all of it in one round leads to "meh" turns. Your spell list is a toolbox—prep is gameplay. The difference between "good Cleric" and "legendary Cleric" is often made at dawn. Don't build only for peak moments. Tier 4 is swingy; build for reliability so you're useful even when the boss is immune to your favorite trick. You can be the party's win condition without being the party's main character. Enable your allies' big turns, then drop the miracle when it counts.

Before the start of My Perfect Console's fourth season, we revisit a classic early episode with the reclusive game designer, Phil Fish.Phil studied game design in Montreal and, after a brief stint working at Ubisoft, left to begin work on a game of his own, a platformer that combined the art style of the Super Nintendo classics of his youth, with perspective-shifting innovations of his own.Six years in the making, Fez launched in 2012 to near universal acclaim, part of the first wave of so-called indie games.
