D&D is NOT Therapy
from Cloaks and Capes: A Dungeons and Dragons Podcast · host Cloaks and Capes
You've probably heard the joke that D&D is like therapy and the DM is the therapist. While TTRPGs like DnD and role-play, specifically, can be therapeutic, the Dungeon Master is NOT therapist. Robbie and Kali are joined by Kaylee Lopez the Gaming Anthropologist to talk about gaming, what makes us humans, why we explore trauma in D&D, and more! Find Kaylee at https://kayleenlopez.art.blog/ They also go over two new AITA stories from the perspective of the characters. If you have an AITA story from the POV of your TTRPG Character, and you want yours read in a future episode, you can leave it here >> https://tinyurl.com/4eexv4tm
