New Talk Show is live. Myconids get a perfect score. Driders get sent back to committee: medium-sized, monstrosity, and somehow still boring.

Favourite moment from the new Insight Check.
Talking about the warforged roleplay video, Wayne stops mid-answer:
"Do you know, I would actually love to play a warforged."
Eberron convert, apparently. 🤖

Annina's read on D&D 2024, in one line:
"It used to be the Swiss Army knife of TTRPGs — and that was what it did well."

Favourite line from "The State of D&D".
Wayne, weighing up two years of D&D 2024: "This is fourth edition in a fifth edition wrapper."
Annina's response: "That is a hot take."

Two years into D&D 2024. Is it a better game, or 4th edition in a fifth edition wrapper?
We get into the OGL fallout, WotC's shake-up, and a big Gen Con rumour about Joe Manganiello.

The first fight of the whole campaign. New 2024 rules, worked out live at the table, and a hit that really lands.
