Trayzure ahoy! Now, a short rest before we head into the hallway, where Dan DEFINITELY doesn't have sloppy wet body horror stomping around.

Well, most of the fish army we brought with us is cooked now, but hey, there's a whole room of possible trayzure on the other side of that wall!

While the murlocs- ahem- kuo'toa continue to drop, the Ding Dong Danglers begin to recall that they are not just detectives and thieves- their abilities allow them to do a ridiculous amount of damage. Enjoy the festive carnage! Apologies for the late release, it was a struggle to align schedules between TV shows and flights.

Now that the slime has come to life and started to strangle our little fish army, it has become apparent that "shortcut" still means "battalion of monsters standing in front of the weak destructible wall."

Now that we've gone Full Metal on the disintegration statue, let's bust out that magic-shortcut map case and bullet line it to the end of this map. Screw caution, as-the-crow-flies convenience wins every time!

Now that we're in the Undercity, it's time for the heist... and maybe destruction of evil. As the corridor looms, Roll20 also implodes. But we have a lovely lich's tomb to explore, and what is definitely a super chill statue in a super chill tiny corridor to just strut past.

Well, we're about to bid the fog of the Fog Campaign farewell (for now?) as we gather supplies for the mud hole plunge. With a well-armed militia of fish folk, we head into the pitch-black depths of the Dellsmouth Undercity. Where there is definitely not going to be a TPK like there just was in our Patreon bonus campaign (whoopsie doodle).

Now that we're settled into our new lives as thief kings, maybe we should look into what that means. One big heist is left, and it might be useful to understand if we already won the campaign, you know? Nah. Into the mudhole we go!

Nothing like the smell of a smoldering barracks! Those pesky elves and humans were even creepier than the kua toa (probably) so we finally locked them in a building and burned them to a crips. Hooray for zero consequences! Just a good old fashioned Nerd Poker "set it all on fire" episode.

Time to square things away with Phillip the Plank. Except... um.... we kind of deliberately burned down what he wanted. Time for some last minute improvising regarding whether we want the fish mob boss as an ally or not!

We're back in person! The gang has just blown up a bunch of cultists and then nuked the worms in their bodies, now it's time to comb through the evil library in their sanctum and find some treats!

This teleporting sack of worms isn't just annoying, it's kinda kicking Lil' Peepers's ass. But if you have been waiting for an extra dramatic death, this episode has a very special treat inside! Take a bite and enjoy!

Would you know it, we found a secret cultist lair, where a pentagram of losers is using the relic to summon something. Time for what The Ding Dong Danglers do best: deny that thats' their name, then almost die because they are detectives in a demolition fight.

Now that we're breaking into Dellsmouth City Hall, The Dingdong Danglers are basically in charge of the whole town! Whoops... is this building full of corpses? ANOTHER building full of corpses? Man, what a ripoff.

Now that we have made a deal with a well-to-do kua'toa, it's time we headed to that friendly kua'toa bed and breakfast to crash. We love the fish people here in Dellsmouth! Unforch, it looks like there may be an uprising to get rid of them by the other species in town. Guess we'll just have to take care of that whole insurrection thing soon!

Now that the xorns are sorted, it's time to do something about the nasty eyeball wound that Twooden took from the splodey rapier. And where better to get a proper high-level healing spell performed on you than the thief's guild, from a from a high-ranking but shady guild officer that you've never seen before?

Hopefully playing in person means we can manage the xorns that sprouted up and are trying to rip our faces off. And hopefully we can do something about Twooden's rapier having just exploded in his face!

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
