D&D - you should listen to this

We realized we were a bit underprepared to play D&D last break and I think that kind of threw everyone off the idea. A friend of mine suggested the penny-arcade D&D series. It makes me so pissed we didn't play because if we actually knew how, it'd probably be amazing.

There's one player who's never played, but is still nerdy in other ways (basically us) and then one guy who plays and another who used to play. They explain a ton of the mechanics along the way and the guys are funnier enough to actually justify listening to a podcast of people playing Dungeons and Dragons.

Download the first episode of series one. I ran through all four series pretty quickly.

Also, if anyone else is interested, I remember Alex, Bill, and Moberg playing D&D pretty successfully over skype and some other programs. I'd be interested in giving that a shot if we can get enough people.
