It is a new era for Dungeons and Diapers as we refresh the show with a topic for discussion every week. This week? How to set and meet your personal goals while balancing everything else in your crazy life. But it is not all different as Ryan is back to talking about his favourite book series and Crofton still can’t finish God of War Ragnarok. All of this, the conclusion of Crofton’s “labour arc” and some Zelda hype too! Come listen!

D&D 94 – Writers Strike

Today, the boys discuss… finances! WAIT COME BACK! Let’s ease into this: Crofton and Ryan swap Easter stories while also going over some recent games (Crofton – Midnight Suns complete and final thoughts!) and movies (Ryan – Super Mario Movie with the kids). They also realize that they have neglected talking about finances and have a quick discussion to figure out if they need to go on podcast strike. All of this and Ryan tries reading another book as BookWatch2023 seemingly continues?

D&D 93 – Midnight Mexico

D&D 93 – Midnight Mexico

It is spring breeeeeeeak! Crofton and Ryan handle it in different ways. One jets off for Mexico and brings back tales of the land down under (sorry Australia) while the other returns to his traditional hunting grounds of the Toronto Zoo. Both of them saw lots of animals! None of which impressed Crofton as much as his new arcade machine. He has almost as much love for it that he does for Marvel’s Midnight Suns. All of this and popular (?) segments “BookWatch2023” and “Crofton Side of CORE” also return.

Ryan’s journey through literature continues with his first non-Halo book in years and Crofton checks in with the first-ever BookWatch2023 segment. Beyond that, Crofton and Ryan do a role reversal with God of War Ragnarok (note the time stamps for spoilers) and Elden Ring. All that, and Izzy has a good week!

Crofton and Ryan are back to share parenting battle stories as the winter season means lots of future planning. The only thing they want to plan is to play games like God of War Ragnarok (Crofton) and watch TV like Shrinking or The Last of Us (Ryan). All of this and Crofton finally excavates Hob’s Barrow.

D&D 90 – A BETTER CROFTON

D&D 90 – A BETTER CROFTON

It is a new year so Crofton tries to better himself through exercise (not going well) and reading (going much better). He reflects on the Thursday Murder Club, a cozy whodunit, and on Avatar 2, a big budget James Cameron done it. Kayden finally let’s Ryan visit LEGO Land and Crofton cameos on the Inn of Gamers. All that and date night discourse! Come listen!
