The box office of the summer of 2024 had some big hits and major flops. Dan Patriss and Chris Kirkman come back on the show to talk about the movies we saw and discuss the results of our summer movie draft.
Tom and Julie are back from Germany with stories to tell. We talk about the crowds, events, snacks, and games of Spiel before shuffling through a new Tale of Boardgaming Horror. And we close the show with some of our latest Roses, Thorns, and Hula Hoops.
Once again, a primer on some of the differences between the US and Canada. We Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving in early October, in honour of our second governor general, the Right Honourable October G. Thanksington. Rather than turkey and football, we do latkes and rugby.

Greetings, esteemed Cabalists, and well met upon this fine occasion of another discourse from the Lords of the Dungeon. Today, the Lords doth speak of the final chapter in their most revered Shadowrun campaign, which now draweth to its close, and the commencement of a new journey within the realm of Pathfinder. Thereafter, they turn their attentions to the matter of forming a band of adventurers. With great care, they discuss the gathering of the party, and how they might craft a fellowship that is unified in both spirit and purpose, ensuring that all may partake in the adventure with joy and harmony, each role complementing the other, so as to maximize the delight of all involved.
