Dave and Eric (Emi) return to break down Chapters 41–43: the rage elemental falls, Meadowlark is saved, and just when Carl and Donut think they can breathe, the Maestro crashes the party. This orc with an ego—and a bloodthirsty teen fanbase—turns murder and mayhem into prime-time entertainment. But when his twisted show targets our heroes, Carl and Donut fight back the only way they know how: with chaos, rebellion, and a whole lot of attitude.

Join our hosts Dave and Eric (“Emi”) as we dive into Chapters 26–30! Our heroes team up with the Meadowlark party and MEAT the big ball of swine in an epic neighborhood boss battle! There will be blood in this one—and maybe even a tuskling dominatrix with a strap-on dildo (you’ve been warned).
Next, Doughnut’s biggest dream comes true as Carl and Donut are finally interviewed—and she laps it up! Finally, the party ascends to Level 2 of the dungeon, and loot upgrades abound!

Join our hosts Dave and Eric ("Emi") as we dive through Chapters 21-25, where our fateful heroes discover their first stairwell to the 2nd level of the dungeon which is blocked by a looming threat. Carl and Princess Donut also meet up with some potential allies, some of them able bodied fighters and others not so much. We encounter our third boss battle, which lends itself to some touching and humorous moments. You may also learn a few things on this episode about the connections between physical fitness and mental health...and that it's not so healthy to get "handsy" with one's self while wearing spiky enchanted war gauntlets.
