126: Secrets of Blackmoor, with Griffin Morgan
"What if everything you knew about the history of Dungeons & Dragons was wrong?" Griffin Morgan the film maker behind the amazing documentary 'Secrets of Blackmoor, The True History of Dungeons & Dragons'. Over a period of 6 Years, in 12 different Cities, and comprised of 200 Hours of Interviews, 20,000 Documents and Photos. Griffin has made an unprecedented investigation into the history of D&D - the game that created a multi-billion dollar industry. I was lucky enough to bag an interview with Griffin where he delved deeper into his personal history in the game we all love.https://www.secretsofblackmoor.com/--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/andy-goodman8/message
