Season 3 Episode 3: Peanut Butter Jelly Time - Multiclassing with Undercommon Taste

Sometimes when two, or more, classes really like each other they come together and make something really special. That dear listeners is called a Multi-class Character. 
Today I'm joined by the hosts of Undercommon Taste to discuss mulit-classing in Dungeons and Dragons 5e. Ian and James and I got together for a cross-podcast collaboration to really dive into this topic. On their show we delved into the crunchy side of multiclassing where we discussed the intricacies of making a multiclass characters, talked about some neat options from previous editions like Gestalt characters.
As they joined us we got a little weird with things. There are so many ways to mish-mash classes in 5e and we offer a lot of great options for interesting builds. We cover common combinations, unique pairings, and busted builds then get into some fun character concepts we created to showcase the things we discuss. We wrap things up with a conversation about our current characters and potential multi-class options we could take in our personal games.

Season 3, Episode 2: Memorable Moments; Creating Tension at the Table with Apotheosis

Think back on the games you've played. What are some of the most memorable moments from them? I'm willing to bet it wasn't the I'm willing to bet it wasn't the slower sessions, the down time between adventures. No, usually the most memorable gaming moments are moments of  high tension. When something important is on the line and there's a risk of losing it all. 
Today I'm joined by Ian Tassin, the creator of Apotheosis, to talk about how to create those moments of tension at your games and to provide insight into how that drive to create tension factored into the mechanics he built for his game.
