Stop Blaming Your Players. Start Coaching Your Table

from How to Be a Better DM: Dungeon Master Tips for the DM Newbie, the Hobbyist and the Forever DM · host Justin Lewis

In this episode, I’m breaking down the three levers every DM has to fix frustrating table behavior without turning into the bad guy: structural changes to your game, direct asks you’re probably avoiding, and the mindset shifts that matter more than either one. If you’ve ever resented your players without knowing how to say so, this one’s for you.Thanks for listening to today’s show.
