WNW Presents - The Incorrigible Party Podcast - Session 48 - Weathering the Storm
The Incorrigible Party is about demystifying Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition. We want to show how accessible and fun it is. The IP is made up of 2 people who have never played before, 2 people that have been playing for a few years, and 1 person that started playing with the original set, but took about a 20 year hiatus before jumping in again at the release of 5th edition. We are 5 friends trying to have a good time and spread the love of role playing.

Joined by The Board Game Snobs, Gaby and Jerry, to kind of have a conversation about Board Games, and end up talking about important Scottish people and maybe board games, actually probably not. If you haven't checked out their show, and want to listen to a show that actually talks about board games, then by all means give them a listen while you consider your search for something that talks about games.
