In this episode Jeff and Tracy sit down with Brandes Stoddard, Sam Dillon, and first-time Tome Show guest Mario Ortegon to give a brief first-look review of the newest D&D release, Tasha's Cauldron of Everything.  This is the Tome Show's third surprise round first-look review. This is a new format for reviews - it features a timely review that is not in as much depth as a typical Tome Show review. The idea is to give this first look and then come back later for a more standard Tome Show in-depth review after everyone has had time to read and play with the material in the book. We hope you enjoy this new format! Consent in Gaming Checklist by Shanna Germain and Sean K.
