What Jess Podcasts

d20 Dames

d20 Dames is a tabletop storytelling podcast powered by Dungeons & Dragons. Every other week a group of five daring ladies comes together to explore a fantastic realm, befriend (or behead) monsters, and punch creeps.

Writer and storyteller Kat leads players Brittni, Jen, Jess, and Meris on adventures big and small to solve problems and eat bread and cheese.

animorphous discussion

In 1996, K.A. Applegate invaded our hearts with the first installment of the series Animorphs. Robin has loved the books ever since and decided to re-read all of them as an adult and tell her friends about them! Join Robin and her two rotating guests each episode for a summary and discussion of every book in the Animorphs series (not to mention the laughs, lobsters, and hawk-love).
