Episode 18: Responsible Consent & Ribald Darkness

Til Dice Do Us Part

Content Warning: This episode contains brief references to sexual assault, violence, racism, torture, starvation, child death, mental health, panic attacks and drug use. There is no detail to these mentions and no explicit language is used.
Get your children out of the room, switch off Granny's hearing aid, and make sure that your boss can't hear what's on your headphones as we have some more risqué content for our 18th episode! That's not to say there isn't practical chat though, as Ailsa and George have a very long discussion on Consent In RPGs. How do you make sure everyone is comfortable at your table, whether it's obvious triggers or more subtle ones? We've got some personal experiences to share on this topic, as well as some ideas from the fantastic free PDF Consent in Gaming, which we highly recommend you grab.
After that Ailsa is taking on a different role than usual as she hosts a Quiz in which George is asked questions on the Book of Vile Darkness, the third edition D&D book that went full grimdark leather-and-gore edgelord after the game had spent a decade playing it safe to keep angry mums at bay. Some of this adults-only D&D book ended up bleeding into mainline D&D books of the era, but other bits.... well, turns out 2002 was a different planet, you know? Why not play along and see if you can get the questions on arch-devils, posing pouches and Ed Sheeran correct.
You can also expect to hear Tuppy read from a barely amended Video Standards Council Script, Twike get very excited about an Indiana Jones themed video, the Mailer Daemon get really angry about a potato peeler, the Inch-High Incel battle with insulation foam, and an advert for two ladies who you maaaaaaybe shouldn't look up on your work computer.
