This episode it's sequel central at Til Dice Towers - both our sections are flashbacks of sorts to topics we have addressed before. First off it's a Quiz about licensed role-playing games: ten true-or-false suggestions, just like Episode 4. This time it's a whole new mix of properties for Ailsa to guess if they really got a tabletop RPG release or if it's absolute nonsense. It's all brought to us by George's... OK, "George's friend" might be a bit much, but certainly someone he's done a lot of business with and who knows this part of the hobby very well. Licensing is his middle name!
Next up is a whole new segment for the podcast, as requested by a listener. We are going to do Character Generation live for King Arthur Pendragon, a game we reviewed way back in Episode 2. The game of Arthurian knights and a game that Ailsa and George have just restarted playing for the first time in a few years; it's one of the jewels of the RPG world which we highly recommend trying. If you've never played it before then you may wonder: "how does a typical character generation process work?" Well sit down and find out as, equipped with the core rulebook and the Book of Knights & Ladies expanded character generation book, Ailsa and George talk through the process and Ailsa produces a player character with lots of character and only a ... minor drawback.
What else can you expect this episode? Well, we've got a mention of which RPG uses hand puppets, a rant on how we feel about RPG companies getting involved in NFTs, a nostalgic ramble about Wimpy, the eternal battle to talk about King Arthur without Ailsa doing Monty Python references, and even the reveal of what happened to that book George buried in the old Pictish burial ground last time. Plus: a sponsor that will make life easier for all the conjurers with a low monthly subscription. Spellcasting is solved!

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.
