377 - The Wretched of Middle-Earth
DMs Rob and Matt hop back on the disk horse and ride into forest of world-building to find the roots of fantasy racism in Dungeons and Dragons. Guided by Adam Serwer and the late Charles W. Mills, they embark on this quest seeking the answer to the question: "Why is Elon Musk so mad about one paragraph in a D&D archival collection published last year?"

376 - The Auteurs
Rob and Matt advance an exciting new theory about who amongst the current crop of TTRPG creators could be considered "auteurs". It's not as pretentious as it sounds, we promise.

375 - Night's Black Agents
Here is a final "spooky" episode for everyone! DMs Rob and Matt review Kenneth Hite's Night's Black Agents. It's "Spies vs. Vampires" in a "mystery inside a thriller." While it may not be the perfect system, (or the perfect system for Matt and Rob), it is an endlessly fascinating bit of TTRPG design. It may have some of the most interesting and useful campaign building tools of any rule book. While it's maybe not for slacker DMs, if you like to prep your campaign using flow charts and story maps or if the phrase "dramatic villain response algorithm" fills you with glee, then NBA (Night's Black Agents) is for you! Plus, Rob and Matt finally get to chat about GUMSHOE.
