Southlands Setting for Pathfinder
Ben McFarland sits down to talk to us about adventuring in the mysterious, hot, and perilous Southlands! Lots of African and Arabian inspiration here for Pathfinder fans, and anyone else who enjoys great setting material. Be sure to check it out and support the project!
Converting 2e to 5e Realms
Up on NewbieDM’s blog we’ve got a great piece about converting older 2e D&D material into 5e. There’s not a ton of hard math here but it’s a great jumping off point for anyone who’s looking to do the same thing. Be sure to check it out and tell us what you think!

Tune in as Ben and I muse about our youth, and actually solving this problem!
