Episodes

Ep.12 White People Popped Off With Brunch | Fangs and Fools |
This is the end, my friend. Or, as the immortal Douglas Adams said, 'so long, and thanks for all the fish.' If you've been here from the beginning, you have our undying gratitude. If you're a new joiner of the show, thank you so much for giving us a chance. This episode is brought to you by the...
-
Ep.11 I Chumba His Wumba | Fangs and Fools |
We love a lil bottle episode where everyone goes off to do their own thing. I'm low-key not sure about Fidget though; kinda seems like Alex the DM was just over the character and didn't want to keep going. Featuring: - Julian fighting rizz with tizz - Arnold and the bummer of an encounter with...
-
Ep.10 I'm a Garlic Bread Whore | Fangs and Fools |
Nothing brings a casual social function to a screaming stop like someone casually announcing they're a bloodthirsty monster. On the plus side, though, Mel found a kid that matches her energy, which means that child is either going to grow up to be a murderer or a priest. Featuring: -A lethal game...
-
Ep.9 T-Pose Gandalf | Fangs and Fools |
Aw hell yeah I love fantasy tarot card readings. What's next, is Alex the DM going to ask what day and time we were born? P.S it really doesn't feel like Julian understood the context of the 'stories or lies' game I'm gonna keep it a buck with you. Featuring: - The miss piggy-est NPC to date - A...
-
Ep.8 Smooth Orbs of Skin | Fangs and Fools |
Holy shit it's a dance battle you guys. Okay okay okay everyone stay calm. Someone get my lubed-up white satin shoes and my skintight jorts. Unsure about what even this flesh-bat is, but I'm sure this is just a friendly competition and he's not going to attempt to rip Arnold's skin from his…

Ep.7 Do Not Smoke That Bird's Cigarettes | Fangs and Fools |
That bird dead AF, right? Because it's mad unchill for Garath to just be smokin' someone else's cigarettes like that. Speaking of unchill, is anyone going to investigate the tattooed corpse dangling from that hanging tree, or are we all just going to keep staring at it? Featuring: - Fowler Hotguy…
more -
Ep.6 That Dog Pissed My Pants | Fangs and Fools |
I thought Strahd would roll in a cooler carriage tbh. The sad disco ball vibe isn't doing it for me. Also, does anyone else see Ireena Kolyanovich in black and white with a long flowy gown when she talks or is that just me? Featuring: - A bit of a mule - Garion fully committing to the bit…
more -
Ep.5 Putting the Hole in Holy | Fangs and Fools |
Now THIS one is Christian-centered. Minus all the talk about butt plugs. Shame about that dude's son, but if the worst nightmare in the world decides to punish you, what *exactly* can you do about it? Featuring: - A kryptonite butt-plug - A shattered priest - Garath failing a lockpicking check -...
-
Ep.4 You Wouldn't Download A Body | Fangs and Fools |
Between Alex the DM's cringe TikTok voice or the absolutely WILD energy that Aeryk brought to the table, it's pretty easy to overlook the casual mention of a cursed vat of souls Strahd keeps somewhere in his castle. I'm still out here wondering why Aeryk came through in the first place; all…
more -
Ep.3 The Werewolf Tramp Stamp | Fangs and Fools |
Those aren't zombies, those are white women looking for a farmer's market. Although I'll be the first to admit the similarities are shocking. I guess this whole 'being attacked by undead monsters every night' thing explains why everyone in Barovia is so on edge. Although Izzy seems like a stand…
more -
Ep.2 Step 1; Soup Step 2; Fellatio | Fangs and Fools |
IDK why Julian is freaking out so much, Barovia seems nice. Not like I'd want to build a summer home here or anything but the trees are actually quite lovely. And I guess the gruesomely murdered centaur at the gates isn't ideal. And the drama in town between Ismark and that dude Bildrath is...
-
Ep.1 You Butt-Blast This Werewolf | Fangs and Fools |
Oh dang, a werewolf in episode ONE?? Confident start, I bet there's nowhere to go but up from here. Waterdeep in the summer time sounds like a goddamn nightmare, by the way. A sweaty beverage? Gross. I'd also want to get the hell out of there, and I'm not even attempting tax evasion like these...
-
