The dropout Community is crying out for "Oops! All-Bards", especially the ones who watch both D20 and Play It By Ear (which is a lot of us). For context, the idea is the party is (unsurprisingly) all bards or musical characters, the DM would probably be Brennan, or our good fella Ross Bryant. We have tons of options for a cast, including...
Zach Reino (We know he plays D&D, has appeared on Hello From the Magic Tavern)
Jess McKenna (She'd be a total newbie, which would be so fun to see, unless she's learned to play since Dungeons and Dating on Offbook, has appeared on Hello From the Magic Tavern. EDIT: Jess has learned to play dnd, how fun)
Ross Bryant (Long time player, DM, has appeared on Hello From the Magic Tavern)
Rashawn Nadine Scott (currently the lovely Viola on Burrow's end, is in a DND podcast which I unfortunately cannot remember the name of)
Jiavani (unaware of her D&D experience, a Play It By Ear regular, insanely funny inproviser)
Zeke Nicholson (unaware of his D&D experience, an Offbook & Play It By Ear regular)
Mano Agapion (If Ross DMs, then there's an open spot in the dome! Host of Play It By Ear, Unaware of his D&D Experience)
There's so much else you could do with a concept like this, if everyone's a different subclass, what if their characters are themed around different musicals? Or different genres of music? @samreich we're counting on you
Edit: Please give cast suggestions in the tags! Resident Horny Bisexual Theatre Kid grant got mentioned, and also once offbooker Lou Wilson, who was there for one of my favourite Offbook songs: "No thank you, Too Scary!" (Episode is 68. Monster Kids for those wondering)
The Full list of potential cast members:
Zach Reino
Jess McKenna
Ross Bryant
Brennan Lee Mulligan
Rashawn Nadine Scott
Jiavani
Zeke Nicholson
Grant Anthony O'Brien
Lou Wilson
Krystina Arielle
Sam Riegel
Liam O'Brien

"Los Angeles folks!
We’ll be filming a series of specials at @ElysianTheater starting next week (that will eventually be released on Dropout under the umbrella title "Dropout Presents") - and tickets are now available for all shows!"
So uh, yeah.
The specials are:
Chris Grace: "As Scarlett Johansson"
Courtney Pauroso: "Vanessa 5000"
Brennan Lee Mulligan & Izzy Roland: "Bigger" (improv)
From Ally To Zacky (improv) with Ally Beardsley, Zac Oyama, Kimia Behpoornia, Devin Field, Victoria Longwell, Oscar Montoya, Talia Tabin, and Jacob Wysocki
The Big Team (improv) Ify Nwadiwe, Ronnie Adrian, Zeke Nicholson, Ishmel Sahid, Carl Tart, Lamar Woods
They all filmed at the end of February 2024 and I am sure they will take a long time to finish editing.
But aaaaah!

Tribute to Roger Corman
Roger Corman passed away recently, at 98. He was a powerhouse of cinema. His own movies, of which he directed more than 50, were all cheap B-movies. The films he produced (nearly 400) were much of the same. Yet, he used his position to give new players a chance to get some experience. Martin Scorsese, Jack Nicholson, Peter Bogdanovich, Sylvester Stallone, Robert DeNiro, David Carradine, Peter Fonda, Sandra Bullock, Tommy Lee Jones, Dennis Hopper, Francis Ford Coppola, Ron Howard, Joe Dante, James Cameron and dozens upon dozens of more people got their start with Corman. He also handled distribution for a lot of foreign films that other companies passed on, including work by Kurosawa, Truffeau, Fellini and Ingmar Bergman. It's not a stretch at all to say that the face of cinema would be completely different without him; the last 50 years of movies owes a huge debt to Roger Corman.
If you are going to watch one of his films I'd suggest:
Masque of the Red Death
The Little Shop of Horrors
X: The Man With X-Ray Eyes
A Bucket of Blood
These are all low budget films but they've got fun ideas and are easy to watch. Just a lot of fun.
RIP to a real one.
