Greg Marks Deals in D&D

Episode 63: The sincere sixty-third episode of the PokeProblemsPodcast. Today, we have a special guest, the incomparable Follow @Skerrit7h3green aka Celebrity Dungeon Master Greg Marks (on Facebook) aka Green Mario. This frequent guest of the show is an Associate Resource Manager for Wizards of the Coast. He writes a lot of adventures for the Dungeons & Dragons Adventurers League available at The DMs Guild. (Miz Sylver writes adventures too! Check out Giant Diplomacy!) This week he is joining us to talk about the end of Season 5 of D&D Adventurers League Organize Play, Storm King's Thunder, and the start of Season 6, which is all about classic dungeon crawls. This season's key book is Tales from the Yawning Portal. He also talks about his upcoming convention appearances, so you can stalk him down in person! But first, some random news!

• Pokemon GO's Valentine's Event is happening until February 15th. Pink Pokemon appear more frequently, including in eggs! And, get double the candy, as is appropriate for Valentine's Day! Also, LURES LAST 6 HOURS! If swelling does not go down, call a doctor!
• The third Pokemon Sun and Moon Global Mission is on until February 14th! This one is to trade Pokemon using the GTS, and it's already reached its stretch goal! So sign up for festival coins and a Friend Ball!
• Miz Sylver is playing Fire Emblem Heroes... We review the results of the character votes! Miz Sylver's home-girl Tharja came in third, just missing having a special version created.

Greg gives us his convention schedule for 2017, so you can catch him in person:
