Manage episode 443761640 series 3605918
Jake Harrison, my co-founder of Climate Detectives: Open for Business®, loves to play live-action role-playing games, like Dungeons & Dragons. He also lives in NYC! The Big Apple! Why would anyone play pretend fantasy games here? You already see wizards, sprites, and other magical creatures on the subway.
In this episode, Jake teaches me how to play Dungeons & Dragons, tells me about the 80s Satanic Panic, and explains some reasons why New Yorkers might seek escapism within a fantasy game.
