Welcome to Anonymous Tabletop Episode 14.

In this episode Joe pines for a missing organ, Tim actually talks about a tabletop game, and Katie asks the rest of us to liven up before we all go crazy and she immediately regrets it.

We also talk about the Spring crop of TV shows, Joe gets his mics confused, and Dave wanders off in frustration when the podcast goes careening off the rails yet again.

We then find out what movies the crew wants to check out this Summer, Tim and Dave try their best announcer voices with limited success, and Joe takes an impromptu nap before we coincidentally have one of our most coherant discussions ever.

And last but not least, Geeky Jean tells us where to go, two huge blobs battle a third in Celebrity Death Match, and we reach into Tim’s Sack and find it’s full of monsters. Who would have guessed?

In this episode of the Forgot My Dice Podcast, Jonathan has given up coffee but we managed to cut most of the irritation at everything out of his voice, and also he painted a lot of models. Robert on the other hand is drinking all the coffee, so he is in a pretty goofy mood. Robert also has way to many books piling up in his reading queue. Which he could probably get through if he wasn’t playing so much Destiny. On top of this the boys Deep Dive the Tales From the Loop RPG, the new hotness from the Free League. All this and more on this episode of the Forgot My Dice podcast.

Welcome to Anonymous Tabletop Episode 12.

In our 1 year anniversary episode Joe and Tim try out a familiar accent, we find a very unusual use for plasticwrap, and Lathan becomes the unoffical spokesman for bondage tape.

We also give you a brief look behind the podcast curtain, recap our newest installment of Dungeons and Dragons, and get tested and find our real world alignments are pretty spot on.

In addition, Geeky Jean asks a cosplay question while Joe gives us way more than we bargained for, Celebrity Deathmatch pits Arnold vs Arnold in a time-travel slugfest, and we reach out to our listeners to choose a side.

And finally, Tim reads more erotic fanfiction that brings this show to an unexpected close as technical difficulties wipe Tim’s Sack from the recording. Oops..

Oh, and if you want to try out the D&D Alignment test for yourself, check out this link (and don’t forget to let us know how you did)

In addition, we attempt to celebrate the life of Gene Wilder, start a celebrity death watch, and I try to right the ship with a horrible eulogy.

And of course, no show is complete without a disgusting trip into Tim’s Sack. This time, we’re forced to boldly go where no man has gone before. Set your phasers to stun.

Welcome to Anonymous Tabletop Episode 5.

In this episode we take a look at the upcoming wave of X-wing models, rant about the random and expensive nature of collectable games, and chat about gaming tables on Kickstarter.

We also discuss our upcoming Dungeons and Dragons campaign, discover that our DM is a veritable Rain Man, and go off the rails and get nostalgic about the Herculoids and He-Man.

And this time, Mario digs deep into Tim’s Sack but finds nothing but demons. But if at first you don’t succeed? Try, try, again. And we don’t ever talk about Lathan’s trunk. But then again, I’m not sure I even want to know what it is he keeps in there..
