One of my geeky interests is D&D/roleplaying. I talk about Critical Role frequently as I’m trying to get caught up on both campaigns, plus watching campaign three as each episode is uploaded to YouTube. The original D&D podcast I listened to was Not Another D&D Podcast, abbreviated NADDPOD. I started listening to NADDPOD in 2018 and loved the show. One memory I have of attending Gen Con in 2019 was listening to NADDPOD as I drove to Indianapolis.

NADDPOD does live shows in various US cities, such as Boston and New York. In their live show announcements, the Midwest is skipped. In NADDPOD’s recent announcement, not only was Chicago on their list, but Minneapolis was as well. I was pumped! I never thought I would be able to go to one of their live shows, so I instantly pre-bought tickets. I was talking to my husband about this because I was so happy that NADDPOD would be in Minneapolis. My husband asked if I was going with anyone else. I wasn’t because none of my friends were listening to NADDPOD (at least that I know of). My husband, as sweet as he is, agreed to come with me, so I didn’t have to go myself. As a disclaimer, I think we should normalize doing activities alone. I have no shame in going to a show or a movie by myself, so I was all on board with attending the NADDPOD show by myself. It’s nice that my husband is coming with me, but I would have gone regardless.

I’m debating between wearing my Moonshine Cybin t-shirt or trying to put together a makeshift cosplay of her character. Her character is a druid who wears overalls and lives her best life. I have overalls I could wear, and I could buy some leafy hair accessories to add to the look. I have time to figure this out.

I’m so excited about the live show! I’m currently re-listening to the Bahumia campaign, which was the first campaign they streamed. I’m not sure how far I will get because of working from home; I listen to podcasts less. However, I will make it a priority now that seeing them live is actually going to happen. Time to start counting down the days until the show!
