Do you ever wish you could step away from the noise of the world for a little while? Well, the podcast Stories from the Village of Nothing Much does exactly that. Each episode invites you into the village, a soothing place where life moves slowly and gently. From the inn on the lake to the downtown bookshop, from the farmer's market to a cabin in the woods, you'll hear warm, family-friendly stories designed to help you slow down, breathe easier, and feel Feel at home. It's sort of like uh easy listening, but for fiction. It's a bit like a grown up version of mister Rogers' neighborhood, gentle, thoughtful, and full of everyday magic. It's from the creator of the internationally beloved podcast Nothing Much Happens, and the series expands the village into a rich ongoing world.

It isn't about falling asleep. It's about comfort, calm, and the joy of a good story. If you're new, try episode 84. It's called All Animal Edition. And it is a delightful introduction to the village's quiet pace and fun whimsy. You can listen to stories from the village of nothing much wherever you get your podcasts.

Oh hi there, listener. Gustavo Sarola here with the cast of Tales from the Stinky Dragon podcast, and we're about to set the record for the quickest DD session. Everyone, roll initiative. I got the highest roll with a 19. I moved 10 feet toward the listener and say, Hi, I'm Barbara Dunkleman. You should listen to our show, Tales from the Stinky Dragon. It's an immersive DD actual play show with a fully voiced cast of characters plus sound design. And then I finished my action with a high five. Go ahead and make a dexterity check. It's an eighteen. Oh, that's a good high five. I rolled a sixteen on initiative. I walk over to the tavern piano. I play a sixth song and say, Hi, I'm John Risinger. Wow, do you hear that?

Tales and Sneaky Dragon also has its own original score. It's like a movie, but for your ears. Alright, yeah, go ahead and roll a performance check. That's a two. Not your best John. Okay, but I promise the show's actual music sounds really good. Okay, me next. I moon walked up to the listener. What's up? I'm Blaine Gibson. You should really check out the show. It's funny, heartwarming, and perfect for everybody. I'm talking DD veterans, people new to the genre, old people, babies, everybody. And then I do a backflip. Alright, roll an athletics check. That's a Nat 20! Woo! Okay, that leaves Chris. Hi, I'm Chris DeMares. Please subscribe to our podcast. And then I draw my sword to attack him! Put the sword down! Put the sword down!
