This week’s episode covers Chapters 1–18 of The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook by Matt Dinniman.

I Was NOT Ready for Carl’s Doomsday Scenario | Initial Reaction

🚨 SPOILERS 🚨 for Carl’s Doomsday Scenario by Matt Dinniman. I was NOT ready for this book. In this episode, I talk through what I loved, the parts that completely broke my brain, and everything I’m still thinking about after finishing it. If you enjoy nerding out over millennial lore and unpacking the complexity of NPCs, I think you will especially love this one. I don’t cover everything in the book, but I definitely captured the vibes. New episodes every Tuesday. We’ll be in The Dungeon the entire month of May!

Dungeon Crawler Carl Took Over My Brain (Spoiler-Free + Discussion)

I start this episode with a side chat about motherhood, identity, and how I stepped away from a lot of the things I loved… and then found my way back to them again. That path led me straight to Dungeon Crawler Carl, a book that completely took over my brain. The first ~10 minutes are spoiler-free, where I explain what the book is and why I love it. **Spoilers start at 10:35** After that, we start crawling our way through the dungeon. I give you my honest thoughts, reactions, and theories. If you start now, you’ll have enough time to read Book 2 before I cover it in May 😉
