WARNING: CONTAINS EVEN MORE SELF INDULGENCE THAN USUAL

Originally aired 18 October 2013.

In the ten year anniversary month, the DM looks back over the last decade and speaks to people who were on ‘The Role-Playing Hour’ over the years in its various incarnations. Memories are shared which … heck, are probably only interesting for those involved! But anyway, here is the episode, just in case you wanted to hear what we sound like when we speak in our actual voices.

Mel Skullandbones (Wendy)
Jack Pointon (Clutterbuck)
Steve Parker (The Disembodied Alien Intelligence)
Anthony Santamaria (Jim)
Luke Wilson (Kevin)
Damian Adaszynski (Cliff 1)
Martin Prokopiak (Cliff 2)

WARNING: CONTAINS DOOMILAX

Originally aired 11 October 2013.

In an earlier episode, the gang looked into the future and saw a mysterious being called ‘The Watcher’ give the DM the secret of destroying his friend, the Disembodied Alien Intelligence alien. There has been tension between the DM and his disembodied pal ever since. But things are fine now, right? That prophecy will never come to pass! Now the DM’s old arch-enemy Doomilax returns to once again wreak havoc. Surely nothing can go wrong because the DM has the alien on his side … right? Surely friendship will win through?
