Podcast Preview: Total Party Thrill Episode 1: Heists and Swashbucklers

You may have noticed a dearth of updates around these parts recently, and that’s because I’ve been hard at work on a new project: a podcast, titled Total Party Thrill.

We’re officially launching our first few episodes on iTunes on August 17th, but I wanted to give a preview of what we have planned. You can listen to a preview of our first episode, “Heists and Swashbucklers,” below:

On Total Party Thrill, my co-host I-Hsien and I will share lessons learned from our recent three-year, levels 1-20 D&D 5th Edition Eberron campaign, pulling out story ideas and inspiration for use in your own campaign, as well as providing more tactile advice to ensure your sessions run smoothly. We also include our Character Creation Forge segment, in which we take a character archetype from popular fiction that doesn’t fit into D&D’s traditional classes and build a character using only the options available for D&D Adventurer’s League. In this preview episode, we discuss Heist encounters and build the Errol Flynn-style Swashbuckler (spoiler: neither of us used the Rogue class.)

I’ve been heads-down recording, editing, and otherwise prepping everything we need in order to launch this project, and I would love to hear your honest feedback. Please feel free to tweet your thoughts to me at @Mundangerous, or drop us an email at totalpartythrill@gmail.com.

Thanks!
