Gertrude
SaraLee STEINER

Q’Vahn
DAVE CALLANS
Dave Callans in a talented comedian and the heel that the world of tabletop gaming podcasts didn’t know it needed. Dave is the funny man behind Q’Vahn, Bamboo Bigelow and many other loved characters. His friendly brand of chaos keeps our episodes funny, unpredictable, and keeps our dungeon master on their toes.
Dungeon Master
JOE
Joe is a true fan of tabletop RPGS and a world class game master. He plays Mr. Dandy, Harrison Cunth, and dungeon masters most episodes that are not part of the main story. We all love when Joe is at the helm of an adventure. His dry wit pushes our narrative through a chaotic sea filled with dangerous attention starved comedians. Joe helps to write the main campaign and jumps into the adventure as his schedule allows.
