Abu and Leo officially announce Spice & Dice, a new Dungeons & Dragons actual play podcast set in the far corners of the Dune universe, with Noah Perito back in the dungeon master's chair. The show is built to welcome newcomers to D&D as much as longtime tabletop players, and this episode closes with a preview from the debut campaign. Spice & Dice targets a Q4 2026 launch, timed just ahead of Dune: Part Three.
