Ep. 203 The Mimic Cycle
9/10/2025
31:07
Once you sign up to be an adventurer, it is a given that you will raid every chest you come across. Some will have locks, some will have traps, and some may even eat you. That last option is the topic of today’s show as we discuss mimics in D&D. These creatures can take the […]

Ep. 202 Rust Monsters
9/4/2025
33:05
If you wear a belt buckle (as any good adventurer does), then battling a rust monster is the only situation where you can get caught with your pants down. These creatures seem to feed on metals, which means that unless you are proficient with clubs and quarterstaves, you are in big trouble. If you have […]
Ep. 201 The Gelatinous Cube

Our 10th season begins! We decided to do something a little different this year. We were inspired by last season’s episode on “Delicious in Dungeon”, so we are taking a look at Dungeons & Dragons monsters and explaining how they work. It turns out, there is a lot of literature on these creatures, and none […]
Ep. 200 The Quest for Immortality
12/12/2024
1:10:13
Once you reach 200 episodes, you start to consider life expectancy. Should a podcast go on forever? Should a human live forever? While I have no idea about the first one, today’s episode is about the second one. Sure we will quickly congratulate ourselves but then we get down to the real work: Researching the […]
Ep. 199 A Santa Who’s Jolly, Jacked, & Rides a Sleigh That’s Packed
12/4/2024
54:12
For many generations, Santa has been seen as a portly fellow who’s hard work throughout the year makes Christmas Day magical for all. That view is becoming a thing of the past. We have done a lot of episodes on the technology of Christmas, and this year we have a new entry: Red One. This […]
Ep. 198 Raiding Tombs in 10 Easy Steps
11/27/2024
57:26
Raiding tombs is tough work, which is maybe Lara Croft, the world’s most famous tomb raider, is such a jerk. Personally I like Indiana Jones a lot better, but he was definitely not as athletic as Lara. Sure he had the bullwhip, but Lara uses a magnetic grappling hook with the proficiency of a samurai […]
Ep. 197 The Dangers of Sleep
11/20/2024
1:00:34
On this show we discuss how the world will end every other episode, and since we discussed robot survival skills on the last episode, once again, we are due. This week we actually explore what Dennin calls the ultimate apocalypse: Dying if you fall asleep. This is the concept of Markipliers new series “The Edge […]
Ep. 196 Robot Survival Skills
11/13/2024
57:38
The early part of this century saw an explosion of television shows demonstrating extreme survival skills. I am talking about Survivor, Naked and Afraid, Man VS Wild, or anything Bear Grylls stars in. I think this was really to show how far we humans have gone from nature. We have lost almost all of our […]
Ep. 195 Creating An Entirely New You
11/6/2024
1:02:16
Let’s say you work with classified documents, or you just have a boring job you want to forget. Wouldn’t it be great if you could just turn off your brain as you entered work and turned it back on when you left the building? You know, give the heavy lifting to your unconscious or whatever. […]
