Dylan and Aram have been working together since late summer 2021 on their show Kill Every Monster, a creative hybrid of TTRPG discussion and Actual Play podcast that dives deep into an entry from the 5e Monster Manual with a new guest each time.
They talk about what they like and dislike about the monster in question, how they might run it in a game, and then spend the second half of the show roleplaying an encounter to show off their ideas! It’s a great resource for any DM to pull from for their own game.

Sara is one of those game designers who saw a need in D&D for rules to make the game more inclusive and interesting for players when they created the 5e Combat Wheelchair!
We chat about where the idea came from, and also where Sara's best inspiration comes from when she's preparing and running games! Check out Sara's rules for the Combat Wheelchair, try them out, and hit up HN2DM and Sara and let us know how the character works for you!

Kat Kruger has so many talents, it’s no wonder she took to game design and DMing a podcast so quickly! If you’re in the States, you’re probably familiar with her D&D/Nerds Candy collaboration that hit shelves in summer, 2021. She’s contributed to or written tons of other 5e supplements as well!
Kat has also been running the D20 Dames game for almost 5 years, creating an awesome, family friendly show based in a homebrewed Forgotten Realms story.

Mat is the host of Role Play Chat, a TTRPG podcast which covers different topics each episode, and lately has been featuring guests from all around the industry to chat about them!
I was on Mat’s show a few weeks ago where we chatted about “Social Encounters” which was a lot of fun, and I think we had some great ideas for people to try out. Now, hear from him about his own DMing philisophies and more!
