The Cocked Die

The Cocked Die

A podcast about Dungeons & Dragons and the people who play it. We'll look deep into the passions that drive the game and delve into what makes the game popular. We'll chat with industry personalities, gamers, authors, and makers, seeking answers to important questions like: should you ever split the party? We'll cover major gaming news and talk to the people making it. If D&D, or gaming is your thing, The Cocked Die is probably for you. Hosted by writer Gary Milakovic, The Cocked Die is a nat-20 for your ears. Pre-production by Gary Milakovic and Allison Parish.
