Johnny has been playing DandD since his college days, and has now graduated to running games for NFL teammates along with family and friends. His stories about finding people to play with in a pro sports locker room and advice on running games is definitely worth listening to, and his Fantasy team, the Waterdeep Wyverns, are going to give my Neverwinter Nightmares a run for their money this season!

When Beth started playing DandD she quickly discovered the vampire module, Curse of Strahd, and just as quickly found it to be problematic. She started small with making changes in her own game as she ran it, and as she made more changes, decided to try and put all her thoughts and ideas together for others to use too! Thus, "She is the Ancient" was born! After getting a little taste of the thrill of publishing in the TTRPG world, Beth has dived into working on numerous other projects. Whatever she's working on next, you won't want to miss it!

This show’s guest is Ty, DM of Side Character Quest! His show is unique among actual play podcasts because it features many different guests playing the roles of side characters in his world, and each game is a self contained story and played with one DM and one player. Ty has been a great friend to me personally as well, giving me podcast advice as I had questions because he’s been at this longer than me. If you’re an aspiring podcaster or DM, there’s bound to be something he says that resonates with you.
