A Master's Degree in Rolling Terribly

amDirt 149 Episodes Dec 27, 2025

Detty and Gaz are two Melbourne mates who sit down to chat about board games. They start by taking listeners through a lightly spoiled Frosthaven campaign, sharing observations, strategies, and decision-making along the way. Beyond the campaign, they discuss how their gaming group tackles genres, mechanics, and social situations. There is plenty of banter, insights, and recaps of terrible rolling, all in their amDirt style.
