Hello and welcome to the Ox Venture podcast.

It is a D&D podcast where we listen to episodes of Oxfenture Actual Play and talk about them.

I'm Jane Douglas. I'm one of your hosts. And I'm the other host, Andy Farron. Welcome to the podcast. Come on in, settle down, draw up a chair by the fire and relax. Yeah, do all those things. We're about to listen to Ox Venture Weirdwood Season 2, Episode 6, which is called Robbins Gambit. That's right, it is.

But first, I'm trying to create a sort of atmosphere of fantasy relaxation here, Jane.

Can you hear the crackling fire in the hear?

It's really hot today.

I'd rather not imagine a crackling fire.

Can you hear the big bucket of ice cubes with a fan blowing the air over it towards you.

That sounds nice, like some sort of D&D air conditioner arrangement I could go for.

They've got a frost dragon up in the roof and it breathes down the chimney and the cold

air kind of flows in through the tavern, making it nice and crisp in here. Yeah, you can almost see your breath misting in front of you. It's that chilly. Oh, hell, yeah. Oh, I'd nap so good in like a chilled room right now. The bartender fishes some mugs out of the freezer. They've got there. They're all frozen mugs and he's pouring an ice cold beverage of your choice.

Oh, hell yeah. Okay. Great. I'm into all of this. And shout out before we press on to our podcast network, which is called Geek Media.

Geek Media is the podcast network from IGN Entertainment where you can find all the IGN podcasts,

but also their podcasting partners like us, like the Oaks Venture podcast. That's right. You can check out podcasts like the IGN UK podcast, where this week Cardi Matt and Jack are chatting it up over Battlefield 6, Alien Earth and Weapons. I assume that's the movie Weapons, not just weapons generally. Weapons is capitalised, so not just the concept of weapons. What do you coolest weapon they're asking. One's going for knuckle dusters. I mean, that might be the Battlefield 6 conversation. What is the best weapon? The best weapon in Battlefield 6. Have you watched Alien Earth yet? It just came out. Alien Earth is out. Well, at the time of recording, it's literally out today in the UK.

It's one of those situations where I believe it came out on the 12th in America.

So that means when you wake up on the 13th, which is today at time of recording,

when you wake up on the 13th, it's like, all the Americans have seen it.

All the spoilers are online.

And I could be watching it right now, but instead I'm at work at my desk. I'm very excited. But no, I haven't seen it. I think, I believe that the IGN guys will have seen, you know, like a screener or what have you. Yeah. I'm excited for it. It's got Timothy Olyphan, my beloved.

Your Fave.

One of your handful of like faves.

Yeah.
