Spider
Warning! Go no further if you suffer from arachnophobia, this episode may not be your friend. But, they are worth talking about. So many interesting things go on with spiders, both in the real world and in fictional ones, that it's hard to just ignore them. Tolkien wrote about them, a lot. And Gygax may, or may not (because it was never legally proven) have 'borrowed' from him for Dungeons & Dragons. This episode is full of discussion about our little arachnid friends, both coming and going. You'll get an earful, and may learn more than you ever wanted to know about those web-slingers. Also, we'd like to mention that there will be a GM Word of the Week live show at Gen Con this year. Tickets are free and you can find out more here. Your Patreon support makes everything possible.
