Dragon Talk #380 - Dumb-Dumbs & Dragons

81 min • 2 mars 2023

Ryan LaPlante (He/Him), Tom McGee (He/Him), and Tyler Hewitt (He/Him) are the team behind Dumb-Dumbs & Dragons - the hit podcast where comedians and improvisers play Dungeons & Dragons for the first time. It's like Lord of the Rings if everybody was an idiot! The show blends professional storytelling (DM Tom is a playwright, dramaturg, voice actor and lifelong DM) with some of the most outrageous and talented performers out there (most of the cast and guests are Shakespearean- and Second City-trained performers and voice actors). With Dumb-Dumbs & Dragons in its 6th season and still going strong, this group has amassed a ton of experience

in how to tell stories over multi-year campaigns, how to blend comedy with D&D (and still have real stakes), how improv helps with roleplaying, and how to keep being friends with your DM after your character dies. It's hard to get them to stop talking about D&D!
