0:08.0 | We are adventurers. |
0:10.0 | Howdy, my beautiful heroes, how are we today? It is a new game day, so I'm excited more than my words can actually say. |
0:19.0 | This concept, this idea even before I knew that I got the job as the new host, was an idea that I had been |
0:26.6 | brewing for quite a while throughout the audition process. |
0:31.1 | I've said it before, but I will tell you again folks the finalists for this spot are all such |
0:35.9 | fantastic people the ones that I did not already know before this experience are so dear to me now |

1:44.3 | give you a lot. I think that my favorite bit though has to be the GM's option to build a clock in the game. I think it's a very |
