Episodes

Using Magic Missile to Win the World Cup (S2E13) 06.07.2026

In our very first VIDEO episode, we share our show & tell items: a homebrew druid circle that lets you become an Ent, a book of magical rules and regulations, and a TTRPG where you use your rock collection to make a solar system. We also play a round of Fantasy Fantasy Draft, recruiting people and spells that will help us win a World Cup match, and a silly little game of 2 DMs 1 Player where t...

D&D But It's Tax Evasion 23.06.2026

In our final episode of the month, we share our second show & tell items, including a way to generate menu items at taverns in different parts of your fantasy world (with a roll table of boons & banes), an adventure you can run if you accidentally TPK all of your players, and a guide for running sports in D&D. Then we play a round of Fantasy Fantasy Draft, selecting celebrity teammates...

This is Definitely Not a Wizard of Oz Actual Play 15.06.2026

In this special episode, we bring our Pop Culture Character Builds to life in a one shot inspired by the Wizard of Oz! Can the crew stay on the rails and get to all of Kelly’s encounters, like a naked man and an unhelpful mayor that sounds suspiciously like Gollum? Also in this episode: Kelly tries very hard to avoid copyright infringement, Alec tries out an Alan Rickman impression and Laurenne tr...

Cinematic vs Mechanical Mass Combat 08.06.2026

In this episode, we build some characters inspired by The Wizard of Oz (that we plan to play in our Wizard of Oz-themed actual play episode next week!). We also answer a listener question about ways to run mass combat for a final campaign battle, and discuss the pros and cons of cinematic vs mechanical combats (and what might work better for your table). If you’ve got questions, we want to hear th...

Adventures? No Thank You! 01.06.2026

Guess who’s back… back again? Alec’s back, tell a friend! The trio is together once more, and we discuss some show & tell items we’ve been eager to share with each other, including a listener-made Owl Bear Rodeo plugin, a Curse of Strahd module that changes the history of Barovia, and a hobbit-inspired game where you don’t go on any adventures at all. And 2 DMs 1 Player is ALSO back, with a ro...

1d6 Rumors For Your Next Tavern 25.05.2026

In this episode (the last of Married Couple May), we go through the history of combat actions through different versions of D&D to see how much they’ve changed. But don’t fall asleep in class yet, because we’re also building a 1d6 roll table of juicy rumours your players might hear in town… and I heard it’s a good one! We also heard Alec is back next week… stay tuned to find out if he’s been l...

A Vial of Oil, Manacles, and an Abacus 18.05.2026

We’ve gone fully off the rails without Alec. In this episode we share 2 more show & tell items, including a homebrewed Ranger subclass inspired by a character from Baldur’s Gate, and a sneaky BUT LEGAL way to get part of a MCDM resource for free! And then we play a game of Unhinged Shopping Spree, where we look through the D&D Shop Catalogue and try to put together shopping list combinatio...

A Tragic Lord of the Rings Birthday Party 11.05.2026

In this episode, we deep dive into Kelly’s villain origin story, starting with his Lord of the Rings-themed 12th birthday party. We also build characters inspired by Indiana Jones, and try to guess the prices of D&D collabs and the 1977 box set (Spoiler: we’re very bad at it).

Brennan Lee Mulligan vs The Bag of Devouring 04.05.2026

Alec is away this month, so in this first episode of our “Married Couple May” series, Kelly and Laurenne put the strength of their marriage to the test and compete head to head in a fantasy hot dog eating competition. We also share some show & tell items, including a 60-room haunted house dungeon, and a resource for every d100 roll table you could ever want (probably?). DNDSpeak.com - https://...

What the Heck is a Point Crawl? 27.04.2026

In this episode, we finally share our second show and tell items, including a resource for unique roll tables, a tool for mapping out point crawls, and a TTRPG where you play lovers trying to uncover the secrets behind a mysterious artifact. We also play a very normal and fantasy-themed game of 2 DMs 1 Player that takes place at a wizards guild and nothing out of the ordinary happens at all. The K...

We Played Nimble (and We Have Thoughts!) 21.04.2026

We played Nimble for the very first time, and we wanna talk about it! In this episode, we delve into our experience playing the free quick start adventure for this system, including character creation with all the fun classes and playable races, combat, and what it was like for Kelly to run it for us with minimal prep. https://nimblerpg.com/pages/start

The first We Like D&D actual play episode 13.04.2026

We're playing the Nimble starter adventure! Mugwort and Damian get roped into saving Moonblossom, the fairy of Merrivale. Mugwort the cute Bunbun experiments with dark shadow magic, and Damian, the Ratfolk boy, tries to pick up everyone he meets.

Talking Dogs and Deals with Devils 06.04.2026

We're back baby! Starting off season 2 with our old faithful segments: "Show and Tell" and "Two DMs One Player". Alec brings us some TTRPG history, Laurenne brings a game about making deals with the devil, and Kelly brings a free 5e adventure written by Kelsey Dionne. Then we finish off with a classic scenario that we've all experienced, when your girlfriend's talki...

This is the end, my friend (of season 1) 16.02.2026

The finale of season 1 of the podcast formerly known as Prince (We Like D&D)! Laurenne brings a cozy little adventure about helping with a proposal, Kelly brings a coffee table monster compendium, and Alec brings some thirsty lesbians. Then, just in time for right after Valentine's day, we build rom com characters! We finish off with a game of 2 DMs 1 Player where KELLY is the player?! Tha...

A Fallout-Inspired D&D Adventure 01.02.2026

For show & tell, we discuss an ambient music map, a DIY Daggerheart fear tracker, and a 3-person TTRPG where you get to play witches in a mending circle. We also build the skeleton for a Fallout-inspired adventure, just in time for the season 2 finale! And finally, we play an extremely silly round of 2 DMs 1 Player, where Kelly drops some very timely pop culture references… about 30 years too...

Daggerheart isn’t NSFW Enough 19.01.2026

In this episode, we share 3 show & tell items that range from NSFW Daggerheart homebrew features about orgies, to helpful roll tables, to an ambient music app for in-person play… you can figure out who brought what. We also attempt to build an adventure based on the movie Speed featuring the man we all have a crush on: Keanu Reeves. Finally, we finish off with a game of 2 DMs 1 Player where th...

Building Keanu Reeves-Inspired D&D Characters 05.01.2026

In our first episode of 2026, we share some fun new show & tell items including a sci-fi-themed heist system, two articles by Kelly’s favourite person in the world (Sly Flourish), and a solo journaling RPG (because the new year is a perfect time to start journaling!). We also build three different 5e characters based on Keanu Reeves characters, and Alec gives a most triumphant summary of Bill...

The We Like D&D Holiday Special 15.12.2025

In this very special HOLIDAY episode of We Like D&D, we share some TTRPG-themed items that are on our wishlists this year (that might give you some last-minute shopping inspiration). We also go through our favourite Show & Tell items of the year, and give them very real, not at all made up awards that have no monetary value. And finally, we play a round of 2 DMs 1 Player where Kelly is ENC...

We Played Shadowdark (and We Have Thoughts!) 01.12.2025

In this episode, which is definitely NOT the holiday episode, we show-and-tell about a time loop adventure, a Christmas adventure add-on for Curse of Strahd, and a solo RPG that tricks you into doing meal prep! We also discuss our first impressions of Shadowdark, which we played for the very first time, and get up to some wintery shenanigans in 2 DMs, 1 Player. Pudding Faire - https://www.dmsguild...

Unsolicited DM Advice 17.11.2025

In this episode, we discuss a card-based zombie RPG (just in time for after Halloween!), an RPG that simulates running a community radio station, and a controversial (?) tip for DMs trying to immerse their players… we also give unsolicited advice on how to run combat for a split party and dealing with players changing characters mid-campaign, and finish off with a silly little episode of 2 DMs 1 P...

50 Unconventional Adventure Hooks 04.11.2025

In this episode, we talk about PvP on an island, 50 adventure hooks that are a bit out of the box, and a RPG where you attempt heists as three raccoons in a trench coat. We also design a Squid Game-inspired adventure with dangerous encounters based on children’s games, and end off with a round of 2 DMs 1 Player that takes place at a gym (which we are all equally knowledgeable about and comfortable...

The True Story of How Alec Killed Kelly’s Character 20.10.2025

This episode contains spoilers for the Curse of Strahd starter adventure. CW: Discussion of a character death.

A New Free Digital Character Sheet Tool 07.10.2025

In this (slightly-shorter) episode, we discuss a cool new character sheet tool, an MMORPG-inspired Daggerheart campaign frame, and a cozy haunted house adventure that is for those who like the vibes of spooky season, but don’t like being scared. To finish off this giggly episode, we play a pumpkin-spice-latte-themed 2 DMs 1 Player. Return to Daggerword - https://griffonrex.itch.io/return-to-dagger...

We Played Draw Steel! 15.09.2025

In this episode, Alec treats us to his best impressions of Kermit the Frog and Yoda, which have us all in stitches. We also discuss our first time playing MCDM’s Draw Steel, and share some fun bargain bin magic items, a retrofuture cyberpunk TTRPG inspired by 90s anime, and a program specifically designed to help you schedule TTRPG sessions! And finally, we play a round of 2 DMs 1 Player that dete...

Steal These Encounters from Baldur’s Gate 3 01.09.2025

In this episode, we build an adventure inspired by Toy Story (which turns 30 years old this year?!), and share some fun show and tell items including 3 encounters you can steal from Baldur’s Gate 3, a spooky summer camp murder mystery adventure, and a rules-light game where you play as monsters hunting the monster hunters. We also play a very silly round of 2 DMs 1 Player with a listener-submitted...
