Our first guest of the season joins us this week- Nick Medinger from Renegade Games! Yes, we talk a bit about Dungeon Crawler Carl and other TTRPGs that Renegade publishes, a tangent involving cult classic film Repo Man goes on waaaay too long, and Mike subjects everyone to a walkthrough of the main grounds of the Geneva Grand Resort, home of Gary Con.

This weeks episode is sponsored by Hell of a Deal- go back this killer co-op poker game on Kickstarter now: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/smirkanddagger/hell-of-a-deal?ref=9g53jc
