Season 1, Episode 6 (Feb 1, 2026): New Year and RiftKickers Updates

Season 1 · Episode 6

Monday, February 9, 2026 • Duration 39:30

In this lively return to the mics, KJ the Comic Guy and Security Dan catch up after a long hiatus and dive straight into the chaos of the tabletop world. They unpack the latest turbulence at Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro, including declining revenues, digital-count controversies, and speculation about a potential sale of WotC.

The conversation shifts to the meteoric rise of Darrington Press and Daggerheart, the shifting RPG landscape, and what that might mean for the future of Rift Kickers. The hosts also spotlight recent Kickstarters, including Modern Problems Require Fantasy Solutions and Horizon Forbidden West: Seeds of Rebellion, before recapping the absolute pandemonium of the latest Rift Kickers session.

From seagull‑based trench runs to nat‑20 romance rolls, accidental cult recruitment, and the establishment of Hard Shell Hooch 2.0, the party’s return to Red Haven is everything you’d expect — and everything the city guard feared. It’s tabletop chaos, industry commentary, and pure Geeks with Dice energy.

Season 1, Episode 5 (Dec 5, 2025): Holidays in the Dwarven Village

Wednesday, February 4, 2026 • Duration 02:17:03

In this full‑session episode of Geeks with Dice, the Rift Kickers continue their chaotic escape from Imbris and head straight into a festive but dangerous detour.

After uncovering cult secrets, retrieving stolen herbs, and drifting downriver toward the Squid Pro Quo, the party receives a new mission from Dara Vane: investigate a mysterious disturbance at a hidden Dwarven Workshop deep in the snowy foothills.

The group arrives to find enchanted pine forests, reindeer stables, flickering magical wards, and a workshop that feels suspiciously like a fantasy‑themed North Pole. As they explore, the players level up to Level 8, sharing their new abilities, feats, and questionable build choices—from grappler shenanigans to lucky rolls to Simi’s ongoing identity crisis.

Before long, the holiday cheer is interrupted by a pack of corrupted wolves breaching the failing ward. Initiative is rolled, chaos erupts, and the Rift Kickers dive into a winter‑themed battle filled with jokes, misfires, and the usual blend of strategy and absurdity.
This episode blends combat, character development, holiday vibes, and plenty of table banter—perfect for fans of actual‑play storytelling with a comedic edge.

Season 1, Episode 4 (Nov 30, 2025): Recap of Shattered Heart

Season 1 · Episode 4

Monday, February 2, 2026 • Duration 48:28

In this episode of Geeks with Dice, KJ the Comic Guy and Security Dan dive into the latest session of their Rift Kickers: Shattered Heart campaign.

After five sessions navigating a deceptively small sewer dungeon, the party finally emerges—complete with bags of holding full of bats, guano, and questionable decision‑making. The hosts recap the group’s chaotic progress, including their soft spot for Dave the hapless potion‑runner, Sweet Pea and Bubbles’ comedic loop through a pointless tunnel, and the dramatic confrontation with a mire sea hag tied to Bubbles’ backstory.

The encounter sparks one of Bubbles’ rare moments of fury, giving the table a standout roleplay moment. They also explore the nuances of multiclassing in D&D, using Simi’s unusual barbarian/paladin split as a case study. The conversation touches on character identity, mechanical trade‑offs, and how different players approach immersion and storytelling.

Looking ahead, the group prepares for their final session of 2025 and a special holiday one‑shot. KJ teases a more tactical, map‑heavy adventure inspired by his long‑running Dungeon in a Box collection—complete with minis, terrain, and a festive twist.

Episode 1 – The Song of Aetherdeep

In the premiere episode of Geeks with Dice, KJ The Comic Guy guides Security Dan, Leonard, James, and Jay through a high-fantasy adventure set in Aetherdeep—a breathtaking floating world perched on the back of a slumbering leviathan, where harmony and music shape reality itself.

But peace is threatened when the enigmatic Maestro Null unleashes his Sonic Drones, mechanical constructs bent on disrupting the island’s melodic balance and awakening the leviathan. As chaos looms, the adventurers must battle these sonic invaders and harness the power of song to restore equilibrium.

Tune in for thrilling combat, rich world-building, and a finale that proves music isn’t just magic—it’s salvation.
