Marc and Bryon are back in the studio discussing this past weekend’s D&D session and WrestleMania. We also talk about the two biggest trailers to hit the internet: Marvel’s Secret Invasion & DC's Blue Beetle. We also review episode five of The Mandalorian: The Pirate (Spoilers)   #BoxOffice #wrestlemaniagoeshollywood #BlueBeetle #SecretInvasion #mandalorian

Mercy, a powerful tiefling warlock, was being used under duress by a scoundrel named Anders. Using her powers, cities were burnt, rank and file melted to flesh, and terror unleased. Such a powerful ally, well, we are hiring. Opprotunity be damned, we have chosen a side and now have to live with that decision, but that is the plight of the Free Wing of the Scaled Company.    Fellcade wants a fight, and the outcome of such may remind us of our folly.  Every bit of this contract seems suspect as our employer wants results. Either way a contract to squash his rebellion must be met as we simply need the cashflow. I guess Wu Tang was right, C.R.E.A.M. Bold statements are made and intimidations are not just checked at the door. Witness the heavy cost of episode 13, Are You Sure We're In The Right Ziggurat.

Marc and Bryon are back in the studio this week for the first in person show since 2020. We discuss local happenings as well as the weekends Box Office, Random news bits from around the web, Big MCU news, and our in-depth review of Mandalorian Episode 4: The Foundling.   #mcu #DaredevilBornAgain #BoxOffice #mandalorian

Alright, confession time. We really had no intent on following our employers direction. As rebel forces from the Carrion Company were testing the resolve of the east, we were diverted to a more honorable task. Mainly the judgement of a prisoner and the justification for her binds and magical muting.   Mercy, a powerful tiefling warlock, was being used under duress by a scoundrel named Anders. Using her powers, cities were burnt, rank and file melted to flesh, and terror unleased.   Such a powerful ally, well, we are hiring.   So now with tents ablaze from her release, all effort must me made to conceal our direct involvement while still accomplishing the contract we had agreed upon. Time for a battle heavy episode which surely will sap our resources just enough for a needed long rest. Spoilers: the rest never comes. Be sure to strap in tight for the dankest of unbreathable clouds in this justice laced narritive of Dungeonetics. (Warning) a minimum of 41 Coccaine Bear referances lay ahead (Warning) Thanks agai

Marc and Bryon are back this week to talk about Mandalorian Ep3 and our sneak peak review of D&D: Honor Among Thieves (Spoiler Free).  #DungeonsandDragonsHonorAmongThieves #TheMandalorian

Marc and Bryon talk about the Oscars and we talk about episode two of The Mandalorian and we break down the season finale of The Last of Us. (SPOILERS) #TheMandalorian #TheLastofUs #Oscars

When I think about the systems we put in place to reform poor behavior, I often think about the act of inprisonment. The binds that holds a crew of rock breakers, the torturious acts of an inquisitioner, strappado and other unique ways of illiciting a response. Then I think about D&D, a game most of us use to escape reality and suppliment a hero as an avatar of ourselves. In this episode you can really hear the two worlds crashing as irreversable decisions are made which really let others know where the moral line is. We asked for mercy, and now their on our side. Jon, yet again, I am sorry. If you want to find out how we tried to draw and quarter a writers conception of possible realities, listen in to episode 11 of Dungeonetics.

This week Marc and Bryon talk about this past weekends Manchester Comic & Toy Show, we discuss and review Ep 8 of The Last of Us and S3 Ep1 of The Mandalorian. We also discuss how do we handle when entertainers do bad things, especially concerning the new Flash movie.  #TheFlash #TheLastofUs #TheMandalorian 

For one night we get a chance to sit down with our found friends, our close confidants, and dare I say cooperative storytellers to weave a moment of imagination into one anothers false-lives. This gets a bit tricky when those moments get extra cirricular and a full explanation is demanded.   Hence, this episode is Coffee Talk. The real nitty gritty comes out and those who want to sip through trapped lips can only smile as a reaction. We are no longer at war. The unrest we kicked into this world seems to have been saited for now. Hopefully these 43 minutes will change that. Thanks again, as always, for Kellen for our slamming intro, KidDr1ft for "spell", Games Brown for the smoothness of a velvet slide, and Virus of Ideals for the beautiful exit music. All are available on Bandcamp, Youtube, and Spotify. Also please check out freesounds.org for a bevy of delicious notes to spice up any audio medium.

"...so I guess my options are flee or fight. I'm going to fight" -Sir Rhogar   I truly am proud of this particular episode. I wanted to squeeze as much in as I could while still allowing the listener a finality to an event. After chasing an army on the field of battle and breaching the walls of their escape, we are faced with troubles. Moraly flexable ones at that. Not to ask the listener to picture the trolley car dilema, but imagine an unreliable narrator telling our heroes exactally what they wanted to hear until time ran up on the rouse.   Now, replace that narration with a mirror. You gas yourself up so much you can shoot to the stars only to find you've impacted an asteroid. The responsibility becomes our own to keep those arround us safe from the shooting stars. In that moment, a leader is defined, a decision is made, and a dice is rolled to find out who gets the honor of removing a royal smile at the neck. We redefine what going above and beyond is in this episode 9 is of Dungeonetics. Thanks again, a

Folks and pals, you have stumbled into a battle heavy episode of Dungeonetics. After accidentally meeting with one of the wings of our company of bandits a plan is hatched. By collapsing the walled timbers of Grencroft by tunneling and fire, we can allow our forces to rush in and possibly win the day.   Possibly is just too much room for failure, and the Scaled Company will never fail. So a hearty plan B was enacted, to attack a guard house from the inside. Percise and with speed given it all had to be timed with the forces in waiting. Would our druid be able to sink his paws into the enemy yet again, or would the weight of the gates be too much to bare? Listen in, and find out on Episode 8!   Maybe. So in this session we storm ahead of the rank and file to gain entrance into a walled city. Our task is finding some way we can drop the gates or destroy the ramparts so our thousand strong force might gain the advantage. Now the common hero might get side tracked by silly tasks, such as drinking or brothel hunti

Marc and Bryon talk about The Last of Us Ep3, East of the River comic show, the Grammy's and the Enfield Markets. Bryon tells his D&D podcast story and his quick review of Infinity Pool. Marc gives his thoughts on You People and who will win the big game next week.  #TheLastofUsHBO #Grammys #D&D #InfinityPool #YouPeople  

The rank and file is not where the Scaled Company belongs. We have a very percise set of skills which grant us the surgical percision to eliminate a threat before it grows. Sometimes we remove a threat before the target has ever realized they are the threat. We are that good...   Maybe. So in this session we storm ahead of the rank and file to gain entrance into a walled city. Our task is finding some way we can drop the gates or destroy the ramparts so our thousand strong force might gain the advantage. Now the common hero might get side tracked by silly tasks, such as drinking or brothel hunting, but not our team. We take on new exciting heights with multiple performances, including a unrehersed puppet show. Which unwilling member of our team is the puppeter? Listen to Episode 7 and find out for yourselves. Thanks again, as always, for Kellen for our slamming intro and Drop Party for their new edition to the team.  Games Brown helped during Allan Guardsman's entrance, and Virus of Ideals provided the beauti

"and as the Hall of Fame gets ever closer, yeah, we all know that the cream always rises to the top" -Macho Man Randy Savage   In that moment I think we can all understand what it means to rise to the occasion. A team in peril, low on spells as well as morale, and seeking an end to a series of gruesome encounters can find the cream in the oddest of places. Our shapeshifter Wolfsbain gives it one last go before releasing all sorts of hell into the top floor of the estate. Backed by the pious Sir Rhogar, nimbled wiskered Skeet, a death tolling Otes, and the unbearable strikes of Dufin; it becomes evident that no force human or otherwise could stop the scaled company.   Except for a beverage break... but more on that in the thrilling conclusion to episode 6. Thirsty for Answers. (you know I am)   Thanks again, as always, for Kellen for our slamming intro and Drop Party for their new edition to the team. Both are available on Bandcamp, Youtube, and Spotify. Be sure to check out the  The Connecticut Gluten-Free F

"Stick to the plan, Dude". As Episode 5 of Dungeonetics was rolling I couldn't help recall the strategy our party has uttered when faced with most troubles. Burn it all down.   Imagine my shock, hearing heroic changelings take the helm as they make contact with disciples of the harbinger. Not only that, but try to reason and turn them without engaging in the senselessness of aggression. Then I realize I have to edit in some sounds of wet towels being flung and rib cages being cracked. Just magically whisked away into the auditory madness of this episode labeled "Well, hello dollies".  yuck...   (fair warning: There is a crackle in a mic which has been isolated and pulled but... I could only do so much) Thanks again, as always, for Kellen for our slamming intro, Games Brown for a great investigation search soundtrack, and Drop Party for their new edition. All are available on Bandcamp, Youtube, and Spotify. Be sure to check out the  The Connecticut Gluten-Free Farmers Market, at 420 Somers Road, in Ellington C
