Today we dig into the history of Dungeons and Dragons and look at what influences Gary Gygax and others drew from to create such an immersive and addictive RPG experience. We'll examine the long history of wargaming and fantasy literature to understand where games like D&D come from. And I'll lay out exactly how D&D came to be associated with Satanic influences. Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! That'll make sense when you listen. Happy 2023 and Hail Nimrod!Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camps coming up quick!  Tickets go on sale the week of JANUARY 16TH.

Dungeons and Dragons has long been associated with the occult? Is that association really fair? Where that association comes from and the history of D&D is what we're exploring today!
