Per the fireside chat they're in printout review stage now on the 2024 Player's Handbook. We're not getting actual previews until that phase is done and the book is out the door to be printed. Until the files are sent, changes might happen, and they don't like giving previews that they then have...

One of these days after Quests is out I might go through and total up how many pages of just stat block reprints it would be to include every MM creature in the book. Then we can talk about which pages from the book you'd want to sacrifice to make room for them. I'm sympathetic to wanting the...

See I love learning this kind of thing about real world animals. I floated the idea of the sperm whale stat block in Rime of the Frostmaiden being able to stun things with an ultrasonic click, but understandably that didn't get picked up. Disappointing but I get it. :P

Pretty much! :D Also I feel you on rushing and missing things. Massive mood.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you can derive many years of joy from those books, as a small part of your mom's legacy.

Thank you so much! A little clarity, we're up to 16 episodes in Season 1, and 13 episodes into Season 2. The podcast audio is lagged a good bit behind due to a variety of factors. Hopefully we'll get more audio episodes out there soon!

The things I worked on include: RACES Bearfolk Centaurs Dhampir Gearforged Kobolds (Midgard) developed Minotaurs Ravenfolk Shadow Fey Trollkin CLASSES Primal Path of the Ancestors Greenleaf College Clanking Mercenary Edjet Ghost Knight Shieldbearer Sword-Dancer Oath of Radiance Oath of...

I'm so delighted to hear you enjoy it, thank you!

That is in fact a plush mantis shrimp, from the Oatmeal. :D Also hoo boy. That's... that sure is a picture they chose for this post. o_O

You bet!
