332 - The TTRPG Mixtape (Music to Plan and Play By)
The making of great TTRPG mixtape, like breaking up, is hard to do. You got to kick it off with a killer, to grab attention. Then, you got to take it up a notch, but you don't want to blow your wad. So, then you've got to cool it off a notch. Like anything with role-playing games, there are a lot of rules. Anyway, we've started to make a tape, on the podcast, for ourselves and for our players. Full of stuff to inspire us while planning. Full of stuff that will make our players happy. How can you use music to up your dungeon mastering? Tune in and see how that's done! https://www.patreon.com/DungeonMasterOfNone Join the DMofNone Discord!
