Welcome back to the Dungeon Masters block, the place where we come to talk about the

dungeon master, the most important person in the game,

the only person capable of playing God,

killing characters,

and lowering the egos of all other people at the table.

I'm one of your host, Dungeon Master Mitch,

and today we are going to be talking about DMing for kids and also talking about getting kids into DMing.

And to join me with that is, of course, DM Ian, but also a special guest, Enrique Bartram, better known as the newbie DM.

But before we get into that, I want to give some shoutouts to some five-star reviews from iTunes.

Our two reviews today come from Canada, and the first one is from Crimson Rogue, entitled Amazing Resource.

As a longtime nerd going back to AD&D, I have been predominantly a player, but always

have the itch to DM, having flirted with it on occasion.

These guys are a great inspiration and a valuable resource in all things Dungeon Master.

Thanks to this podcast, I have moved forward with campaign ideas as well as style advice,

and I'm excited to start a brand new campaign with my gaming group of old and new players.

Thanks, guys. Thank you, Crimson Rogue. We really, really appreciate that.

Our next one comes from Alex Ellsworth and is entitled Best Podcast I Have Listened to Still.

Alex says, last time I gave a five-star review was two years ago and my iPhone broke so I could not listen, but I got a new one and every night I don't read a book.

I listen to this podcast. P.S. Sean

Ellsworth from Tribality is my dad. Yes. Thank you so much for that review, Alex. We appreciate it.

We love our younger listeners. You guys are awesome. Thank you both for those awesome reviews.

And without any further ado, let's head to the meat.
