Episode 11: Dungeons and Dragons and The Satanic Panic with Brindolyn
Dungeons and Dragons (better known as D&D) is a Tabletop Role Playing Game (TTRPG) that has always been (unwillingly) involved in controversy since its creation. I spoke with Brindolyn who is a D&D enthusiast about how she got started and her experience(s) playing the game as a Brown Queer Woman, which has all lead to her role as a (paid!) Game Master. Next we discuss the Satanic Panic and the Dungeons and Dragons media frenzy.
