Here is the show description:
In this episode, Jeff and Tracy are joined by Sam Dillon, Eric Paquette, and James Introcaso to discuss the sequel to Scourge of the Sword Coast: Dreams of the Red Wizards – Dead in Thay.
This was one of the episodes we skipped releasing so that we could bring you the Mike Mearls, Wolfgang Baur, and Steve Winter interviews in a timely manner.
This is another very good episode–Sam & Eric bring a ton of information and issues to the table and really provide some great insight. James is currently one of my favorite D&D Commentators–a real fresh enthusiastic approach–very fun.
A lot of the issues that they raise, though valid, seem to miss some of the fun that this adventure is providing for D&D Encounters. Encounters has tried to do Dungeon Crawls a few times, but this one really is the best I have ever seen. Every week the tables are getting more and more crowded through the season–which I have never seen happen before [generally, attendance goes down during the season & spikes at the beginning of the next season].
Also, I think I got a lot out of this episode because they were reveiwing a product that I actually had some experience with–historically, Tome Show has reviewed stuff months before I see them, but lately they have been reviewing books and adventures that I have had my hands on which allows me to get a lot more out of the reviews.
Really like the direction this is going–unfortunately, Tracy’s contribution is weak here again…as a cohost she seems to bring more confusion and awkward moments to the conversation than most of the guests….I am not really sure where she is coming from these days–it is like she has stopped playing D&D all together and is just offering social commentary…maybe time for a new cohost who is spending more time at the table.
