Tony Baker was one of the best guests on a Dropout show they've had lately. his ability to take crowd stories and turn them into some really solid dark humor without punching down was terrific. Really hope they invite him back for more stuff.

I'm telling my kids this was Killing Eve.
A screenshot of comedians Lily Du and Vic Michaelis on "I Spy," an episode of Dropout's comedy panel game show Game Changer. Behind a velvet rope at an art gallery-like set, Lily and Vic are standing very close to each other, saying "You absolute bitch" and "You bitch" to one another, reminiscent of Eve and Villanelle in Killing Eve.

is the "sample season" of Dirty Laundry like the Game Changer/Make Some Noise ones still on there? that's one of my absolute favorite panel shows, it's like Dropout's take on Would I Lie to You?

it's a bit of an old pull at this point but I'd love to see Ken Hoang in the dome just because he plays JRPGs and there's a lot of transfer there. as far as general Survivor/Dropout crossover goes, Drew Basile would absolutely crush it on Um Actually or Smartypants.

also had this issue on tv, although I'm using the Roku app! What I've had to do the past 2 days has been: going to the subtitle settings, turning them off, and then turning them back on again. Then it works.

this would be a fun shiny question for Um Actually, if they ever do an internet trivia episode again like the Drew Gooden/ProZD one.

just wanted to let you know I had such a wonderful time streaming this from home!! Great RPing as always, so cool to see support for local (to them, not me) politicians from the Dropout crew. I think Lily has finally figured out how to make a D&D character sheet too.....

And at this point if you even get near the comparison of TTRPG Actual Play to pornography without: - being a sex worker - citing the actual contributions of SWers to the history & practice of AP, you’re being deeply unserious and careless.

Thank you!!!! I run an RPG club for middle schoolers at work. Tried 5e exactly once, but all the rules were too much for their brains (and mine, lowk) at the end of the school day. PBtA and Roll For Shoes were much more successful. Really all comes down to the context you want to use a TTRPG in.

joe! @joelollo.bsky.social · 04/08/2026
So real. I barely consulted D&D for my capstone inspo because so many other TTRPGs can build cooperative storytelling & SEL skills better. Many teachers will use D&D/5e just for "fun" without relating it to the bigger picture of the curriculum or learning objectives. I wanted to...not do that.

I was finally able to watch it this morning having followed your work since grad school!! (and talked w/you on IG) as an English degree holder / current K-12 educator / hobbyist game designer / Dropout fan it was genuinely so cool that this many of my interests were able to combine in one thing.

Instant favorite AA -- I used @friede.bsky.social's work in the games I designed for my MLIS capstone!! The insights on viewing actual play, and TTRPGs in general, as learning experiences are so important. There's so many valuable things you can take into the "real world" from them. She nailed it.

@gamechanger.dropout.tv season 8 episode 6, or should i say "noise some makes," described in 4 out of context images: phenomenal episode, btw. my favorite of the season so far. please let @remarkablyrude.bsky.social do more pitches for game changer.

This is about Promline isn't it? Straight people playing gay characters has been a thing forever... The only difference between Robin Williams in The Birdcage and Amanda in the Promline video is that the latter has a bunch of parasocial stalkers coming after her for playing a queer character.

"Quackademia" would've been a good name for the Rank Room too, the show almost feels a bit like a precursor to Smartypants from CH, only a bit more like a British panel show.
