In this episode, Ingrid (@ingastura) and Rob (@rob.nester) sit down to talk all about Dungeons and Dragons. They'll discuss the history of the world's most popular tabletop role-playing game, delving into how a game created 50 years ago is still a thriving piece of popular culture, and how a game based on selling you just a rule book has grown into so much more! Jon Mateer, beverage manager at Florida's TPC Sawgrass and host of the Bardtenders podcast stops by to tell us how hating grad school led him down a road that included opening a Death & Co. location, running a storied PGA bar program, and creating a niche podcast!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
