Dungeon Master of None

Latest Episodes:

The Neopets TTRPG Saga Mar 12, 2026

Show notes

The Neopets Role-Playing Game is the ideal kickstarter. It's got it all: licensed IP, lazy 5e mechanics, nostalgia mining, kitchen sink promises, missed deadlines, alleged missed wages, a combat system for a cozy setting, potential OGL violations, and drama! DMs Rob and Matt try their best to chart the history of Neopets, Geekify's missteps, the system, the playtest adventures, and the fallout. Plus, stay tuned for late-breaking Neopets News!

Neopians, hack or play these TTRPGs instead:

TEASER - A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Mar 10, 2026

Show notes

Matt and Rob return to the world of GAMERTHRONES to talk about A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, which dares to ask "What if a Game of Thrones show was good?"

393 - Ride or Die with John Harper Mar 05, 2026

Show notes

We don't have games, we got family.

Have you ever wanted to play a Fast & Furious-inspired TTRPG? John Harper (of Blades in the Dark, Lady Blackbird, and Agon fame) has got you covered. Welcome to Ride or Die, a fast-paced, double-clutching game where you are invulnerable as long as you are in your car. Look at this dope draft character sheet! If are ready to jump into your souped-up Honda Civic to stop a global arms smuggling ring that also has mega computer virus with nothing but the power of expensive cars and found family, then stayed tuned to Evil Hat Games for Ride or Die's release in the near future.

If you can't wait that long then head over to the crowd-funding campaign for Blades '68. It's Blades in the Dark in the swinging 60s. Groovy, baby!

Or, check out John Harper-recommend survival horror TTRPG, Liminal Horror, by Josh Domanski and Goblin Archives.

Salud mi familia!

390 - PF96-108: Hell's Rebels and Hell's Vengeance Feb 12, 2026

Show notes

Matt and Rob go to hell! Hell-lite, anyway, specifically the nation of Cheliax, in Paizo's twin APs, Hell's Rebels and Hell's Vengeance. One of them is good and one of them is not so good, and you probably don't need to even listen to the episode to guess which is which (but you should listen to it anyway).

389 - Actual Prep with Random Tropes Feb 05, 2026

DMs Rob and Matt are joined by a special guest: a random table!

But this isn't just any random table, but a table of your over-used, loved or hated, fantasy tropes. Listen in as Matt and Rob attempt to remix and reuse these tropes into a workable bit of region, adventure, and faction prep.

Matt and Rob read some BLOGS and talk about OSR design, especially around how to run big, epic monster combats that don't just feel like slugfests.
