What is the opening banter and premise of this Distractable episode?
Good evening, gentle listeners or watchers, and welcome to Distractable. This face-to-face episode. Bemused Bob wants DM swinging, sacrifices saving throws for familial bonds, yet yearns for combat. Wearying Wade doesn't blow his own horn, questions his vocal dexterity, and poisons himself. Morale raising Mark mauls Mr. Mercer, wants TPKs, and bribes guild membership. From cancelling curses to sunsetting sportsmen. He ha ha ha! It's time for Wade has an interest! Now sit back and prepare to be distracted and enjoy the show.
I think we've officially run out of conversation topics.
Been a really long week. I I was very busy. Played D D last night till like four in the morning.
Why didn't you say that? I'm
playing up good barbarian, which is kinda crazy. It's a unique kinda that wasn't intentional, just happened that way.
See, this is the thing. You're the busiest person I know. Because you're always doing something. And yet you come here and say like, ooh. I don't
know that that it feels like self promotion. So I don't wanna be that interesting. Just talking about what talk about what you do. It's what you do. I self-promote all the time. Okay, well I'm playing an invulnerable rager, which means I get more damage reduction. So I'm like I go in, I get the shit beat out of me, but I actually deal take slightly less damage, and I have this big sword and I just fucking clean it.
Well,
yes, if you say that. I'm gonna be invulnerable.
Invulnerable Ranger just made you get more damage reduction early 'cause we're doing what's called Epic Six, so we cap at level six. Uhhuh. And we just got to level four. Um, so it's like you only get so many powers, so many feet, so many ability scores. So if you have damage reduction and everything caps at level six, it's like actually damage reduction of two or three is pretty strong. So I was like, Okay, I'll go with that. People have been wanting us
to play D and D for a long time. I love D and D We just don't have enough people.
I have an idea that I want to do. I want to find a DM who I like get along with who will give us one shots where it's like they come up with the story, they come up with we f we use there are a lot of really simple structures where all you need is like you roll one die and then and you could do you could figure anything out what that needs to happen. But they give us a bunch of different like a series of one shots and then we take turns being the host, but also the host like doesn't have all the info. So one of us is running so there's not a fourth person on the show running the game, but they would like they would be in the background and the DM would be in the ear of whoever of us is running the show and be like,
Actually, suddenly this hap like then we get to take turns running it. So it's not just like I'm the one who does the D D or something. And we all get to take turns playing. And it could be different characters. I kind of think it'd be cool if we had like set characters and they just jumped from universe to universe. Like it was in space. Yeah. And we kept like go looping around going into different I want to do this, but I have not done the first step of I need to find someone who is on board with this idea who I like. I think gets our humor and would be good at this sort of 'cause it's not a thing most DMs are like It's a grand campaign. Or or it's a small campaign. But it's like it's for our group 'cause they have a group that they play with or whatever.
So
I know my DM doesn't really like it. I'll do one shots. He's not really a big fan of them because he said it's like hard to tell a good story in yeah that amount of time. It's a lot of cliche kind of stories. But if I wasn't doing gaming stuff, I a hundred percent could see myself I could I'm like I don't think I'm critical role worthy, but like having a really awesome setup where you have like the table everyone gets around that critical role does and like having like a full D and D. Okay,
here why do you say why
do you say you're
not critical role worthy?
Their voice acting capabilities, I think, is above.
