About this listen

A podcast where we create and discuss homebrew content for tabletop roleplaying games, primarily Dungeons and Dragons 5e. Here, we try to expand on the options presented to us in the published material, to offer some guidance for aspiring storytellers trying to figure out how to make their big ideas become reality. Here, we stir the pot and lick the spoon. Logo art by David Sutherland - find him on Deviant Art: https://rb.gy/hqmjgoCopyright 2021 All rights reserved.

  • Everyone Gets a Cantrip! - Episode 179
    Nov 19 2025

    This week, we do a little bit of homebrew worldbuilding, asking the question: what does a setting look like when everyone is capable of casting spells? Join us as we discuss the implications of having a society full of spellcasters, some ways that even combat-focused cantrips could be used as utility spells, and just what to do about Eldritch Blast.

    Our website is live! Head on over to undercommontaste.com to find links to all of our social media, streaming sites, Patreon, Itch store, and Discord.

    Our theme song is Massacre Anne, written and performed by Mary Crowell, and used with permission. You can find Mary's work online at marycrowell.bandcamp.com, or on Patreon at patreon.com/DrMaryCCrowell.

  • Madness! Fangs! Tentacles!: Extraplanar Dragons, pt.2 - Episode 178
    Nov 5 2025

    This week, we're venturing into the Chaotic Evil quadrant of the Great Wheel to discuss the extraplanar dragons of Carceri, Pandemonium, and the Abyss. Join us as we discuss feral chihuahuas (relevant), eldritch horrors (RELEVANT), and The Human Centipede (also, unfortunately, relevant).

    CONTENT WARNING: Once we get to the Abyss (around the 33 minute mark), there are elements of body horror, non-consentual body modification, and other elements which may be upsetting to some listeners. Listener discretion is advised.

    Ian was in an actual play to promote Friend of the Show C.R. Rowenson's new book, Spawn Point! There are three videos total - two pre-recorded sessions and one livestream VOD - which can be found on Clark's YouTube channel, The Magic Engineer.
