054 - Growing your TTRPG Interview podcast with Derrick of How Not to DM

Roll Play Grow: A TTRPG Business Podcast

What happens when you interview an interviewer? You tend to compare notes. And that is what we do today. Our guest is Derrick, the host of the How Not to DM Podcast. If you aren’t familiar with his show, I highly recommend you go check it out. If you like my show, you’ll like his too. Derrick also interviews folks in the TTRPG space. His focus tends to be on DMing, and he always makes a point to ask about mistakes his guests have made as a DM so that we can learn from them. Of course, they talk about the good things too and there are always some pretty entertaining stories. He’s in his second season now, and added a super fun game element that’s tailored to the guest. Definitely go look up his show if you haven’t already!
