Dungeons and Dragons is a popular hobby among Latter-day Saints, so we rounded up some dungeon masters for this episode. Shannon Oler and Parker Sappington join us to discuss D&D: Honor Among Thieves, the new movie starring Chris Pine and Michelle Rodriguez. This fantasy adventure comedy has us asking how similar are paladin oaths to temple covenants. We also talk about how D&D can be used to build empathy and community among people. And of course, the chubby dragon makes an appearance!

I remember playing Dungeons and Dragons video game in the 1980s yeah it caught my eye slowly getting through the adventure. It was a cartoon game so the world was fantasy, I got hooked on it but only lasted about 7 minutes in the game. But good listening about it and must see the movie.
