Welcome back to the Dungeon Master's block, the place where we come to talk about the Dungeon Master, the most important person in the game.

With every conversation we hope to inspire as many as possible to keep on dungeon mastering.

And I'm one of your host DM Neal, aka Jote Maniac.

And today we have a returning guest.

We have none other than Shelley Mazinople who is coming to tell us about DM parenting.

Whether you have kids, you don't have kids, or you have games

with kids in it. This is a great conversation about some ways to help elevate both parenting

and DMing. And as is the case with some of our episodes, there is definitely some needed

catharsis and talking about the two and some of the struggles there

in. And of course, if you're one of our patrons, keep a close eye out. There's definitely some

new stuff on the way, especially with our rebrand. You may see some different logos. You may see

some merch. You may see all sorts of things. We're still ironing the rest of that out, but we're

backdropping episodes. We already have three in the rest of that out, but we're backdropping episodes.

We already have three in the can and with more on the way. And of course, as we've mentioned before,

we will soon be having the contest to be able to win not only the player's handbook, but the

opportunity to win the Dungeon Master's Guide. We have a couple physical copies. We have a couple

digital copies. But stay tuned on our social medias.

And, of course, listen here.

We'll have basically a survey that you can fill out.

And we will pick a winner.

Before you know, we will announce that survey and the ways to win really soon.

But with all that out of the way, let's head to the meat.
