Small Town DnD
Tired of adventure? Small Town DnD is a Dungeons and Dragons 5e Actual Play podcast if the heroes ignored their epic quest to stay home and deal with small town problems. Inspired by sitcoms and farming video games, listen as the quiet town of Chester’s Chair is radically reshaped by the (foolish) actions of the players. The smaller the stakes, the bigger the consequences!
Featuring 20+ years of combined improv comedy and D&D experience in cast members Chelsea Lee, David Dillon, Dewey Cassady, and Dungeon Master Alex Wolfson.
New episodes on Tuesdays, we take the last Tuesday of the month off.
