Added 2025-02-18 19:01:00 +0000 UTCIn a shocking turn of events, Brad commandeers control of this podcast and directs the rambling this week toward the mess of New York City politics, the lurking danger of Windows 11 24H2, Wizards of the Coast's ability to constantly trip over itself, our upcoming session with Austin Walker playing his new tabletop game, and more.

Late listening to this, but to be fair, President's Day is generally meant to celebrate Washington and Lincoln's birthdays, and not the sitting US president.

2025-04-04 21:44:34 +0000 UTCVinny, fiber is relatively cheap now. A couple meters single-mode will probably run you $15 to $30. LC is the standard connector for SFPs from switch to switch, and it's pretty small (comparable to an RJ45 connector).

2025-02-20 20:25:43 +0000 UTCIt does seem like an easy mistake to make, given Wizards is the only thing they have making money. They're squeezing them to death and don't care, that's for sure. That said... leave D&D, the whole corporate line is rotten.

2025-02-19 20:19:12 +0000 UTCexcited to hear the Realis game; the system is so wildly different from DnD and the bits Friends at the Table have put out so far have been really cool

2025-02-18 23:20:39 +0000 UTCThat live D&D show was the group Dimension 20 and not only was it an arena show, they sold out Madison Square Garden in less than 10 minutes. So yeah, it's definitely the biggest it's ever been. Critical Role is still selling out shows ultra fast, but it seems to be smaller venues like Beacon Theatre.

2025-02-18 22:27:30 +0000 UTCooh that intro music goes down smooth

2025-02-18 22:23:05 +0000 UTCHey guys! Small correction: *Hasbro owns Wizards of the Coast (not the other way around)
