Dungeon Driver

For our last show of 2020 we talk about the D&D movie that's coming and what we hope to see in it - as well as what we're looking forward do in 2021 for Dungeons and Dragons. Hope you all have a great holiday season! We'll see you next year!

Join Laura-Leigh, Watt 221b, Garlok, and Gaarawarr for another awesome adventure from DM Storyteller Mars. This time they find themselves in Waterdeep and have to deal with, as Gaarawarr puts it - some finger-wiggler bullshit.  

This week we answer a listener question and go on a bit of a tangent. After that we talk about holiday themed games we have done and ways we go about planning them. If you have a topic, question, or suggestion for the show send them in to DifficultyClass@gmail.com and we might read them on a future episode!

This week we catch up on the Sword Coast Guard's adventures, Treavor had an awesome session zero, and the Harrowed are given an old school quest.

This week the Golden Pals make their way out of Avernus with a man down, while one of Allie's friends runs a game for the first time!  Music and Sound by Syrinscape. syrinscape.com/?att_Difficulty_Class Because Epic Games Need Epic Sound Complete list of credits here: https://syrinscape.com/attributions/?id=30004&id=30438&id=44983&id=44988
