Judd Karlman mentioned Carl of the Megadungeon podcast in his own podcast, Daydreaming About Dragons. So I went looking. I found The Megadungeon, which looks like the right place, but try as I might, I couldn’t find a good feed that would work on my podcasting app. All I could find was the feed for the blog. Until I discovered a slightly different domain, without HTTPS, but with a feed that seems to work.
I should send Carl an email and ask him. Or if you already know, please leave a comment down below. 😄
I loved his episode 3, Interview with Che Webster. They talk about *Caverns of Thracia* (which I also ran a few years ago), but in the intro they talk about the benefits of B/X, *Basic and Expert D&D* from the early eighties! Character creation is fast, combat is fast, the rules are simple. That’s why *Halberds & Helmets* is basically a house ruled variant of it (via *Labyrinth Lord*).
Another thing that matches my experience: when playing with kids, don’t treat them like kids. They don’t want to play a kids game. I did not when I was a kid and they still don’t.
