| 0:00.0 | 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, |
| 0:22.6 | killing characters, and lowering the egos of all other people at the table. |
| 0:27.7 | I'm one of your host, Dungeon Master Mitch. |
| 0:30.2 | And I'm Dungeon Master Neil, aka Jop Maniac, and I really wanted you to say lowering the |

| 1:19.8 | Before we jump into the meet, Neil, we have some five-star reviews. |
| 1:24.2 | We do, and our first five-star review comes from Appellant Khan, but like con, angry Star Trek |
| 1:32.4 | Khan. And they entitled it New DM, five stars. As an aspiring DM with only a few D&D friends, |
| 1:40.6 | this is great. My wife and I just barely found Dungeons and Dragons and were loving it, |
| 1:45.8 | but not having any friends that really DM, I've decided to take up the mantle and this podcast |
