Episode 88 - Deep Delve into Dungeons and Dragons!

January 13, 2018

For this episode we delve deep into the topic of Dungeons and Dragons! We start from it's humble beginnings in the basement of the home of the weird Gary Gygax, all the way to the multi million dollar business it is today. Don't even know what Dungeons and Dragons is? The you'll definitely want to listen to this episode! A seasoned tabletop RPG expert? You'll STILL want to listen in for all the trivia about D&D you never knew.

We also have Nerdy News of of recent cases of spontaneous human combustion, and a new study that shows just how good us humans are at being able to tell if someone is sick.

We also bring back an old segment, Preternatural Penetration, where we uncover the secrets of the paranormal... or simply where Jarman tells some cool stories and Steve tries to debunk them...

Then stay tuned for a ridiculous game of Would You Rather, we give our Radical Recommends, and then Trailer Reviews of Avengers: Infinity War and Insidious: The Last Key.
