BONUS - One D&D discussion (part 1)
A wild bonus episode appears! We are mid-hiatus, hoping to start recording again in the new year, but the longer I leave this to upload the more editing pings I'm going to have to add. So here you go, our thoughts on One D&D and how right we were.

Fire Genasi Barbarian (Path of the Storm Herald)
Just a quick note - we are running behind on our schedule due to problems with editing Simon's RSI, the summer heat affecting how often the upstairs of his house is bearable, and both of us massively going over time in the second half.
The RSI is under management, the heat will soon be gone, and we have agreed from this recording onwards to try and be a bit tighter in the second half. So it should get back to the regular Friday release schedule just in time for the end of the first season.

BONUS - 4th edition
A short, 20 minute discussion on 4th edition, and why we sometimes talk about it the way we do. In retrospect, not all of this is technically correct, but unfortunately as Britain continues to be Britain, we have had to take a week out to sort our schedule out.
