We open this week's conversation with ancient gang signs, for some reason? Ryan then muses about cosmetic options within games. We discuss Penny's new hair on the Big Bang Theory, as an example of a cosmetic change, and we debate whether it should affect her statistics as a role-playing character. And for our main topic, inspired by the trailer for The Maze Runner, we discuss games within games, or blood sports, or the gladiatorial dungeon. And as always, we debate dungeons, traps, dungeon mastery, and elf ears!

The Littlest Nomads

Josh and Ryan talk about all the simulations they've been running this week: Josh prepares for some in-public D&D, Ryan plays Marvel Online, Josh writes himself a sitcom, Ryan notices a coincidence with the Tagalog word for onions and Ghostbusters lore, Mutants, mixing and matching genetic mutations for awesome comic book and video game characters. And once all the tangents are out of the way, for our main topic, we discuss how a nomadic lifestyle applies to the world of Dungeons & Dragons.
