Dungeons and Drag Queens

I was at the amusement park the other day and somehow got zapped into a hellish realm of demons and monsters and tiny senile tour guides and thought, “We should do a podcast retrospective of 80s Saturday morning cartoon favorite Dungeons & Dragons!” And wouldn’t it be fun to get trapped in said hellish realm with site members Allen, Johnny M, Rhea and special celebrity guest Tommy Roddy, D&D fan and author of Pride High! So buy an “E” ticket and join us on a ride into the Realm! Here are some highlights:

The FBOTU Players Present: The Lost Episode
If you’ve been dying for another taste of the awesome acting talents of our troupe, you’re in luck! We start the ‘cast with a short performance of “The Lost Episode,” which was written in about ten minutes after watching 12 hours of D&D and consuming two bottles of champagne.

Saturday Morning with Satan
A cartoon based on a controversial role-playing game. You think people are wacko over violent video games and television shows now? The guys reminisce about a simpler time, when you could get a half hour of the occult in between Captain Caveman and Shirt Tales.

Dungeon Master Johnny
Johnny schools and spanks the rest of us with his encyclopedic (and kind of sexy) knowledge of all things D&D. Listen to him correct me about 1,000 times.

Is That a Quarterstaff in Your Pocket?
Fairies, bears, trolls, queens and gender-bending dragons. Yeah, it was totally gay.

Thanks for listening!
