I don’t want to play this game of Pandemic anymore. Can we just play some Dungeons and Dragons? No. No we can not because everyone should be staying home. (Yes, I know that we can use Roll20, Skype or Zoom…just go with the metaphor.) Rest assured, we met for this episode before social distancing really started…but now we’re all being socially responsible nerds. Unfortunately, that means that the community we all enjoy is hurting. Be it conventions, or your favorite local gaming stores, now is the time they need your support the most. This week, the Galactic Driftwood crew discusses the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and ways that we can come together and support our local gaming community.
