Jim Zub!!! This story gets better every time! Way to go!!!
This was great I love D&D and this talk was so heartfelt.
This was the coolest video I've seen all year.
Great way to simulate real life scenarios with your kids. They are learning under the guise of play!
Dude you make me proud to be a nerd.

So true! Great TEDx! Thanks, Jim
Amazing and candid talk. 10 out of 10 tentacles!
Jim Zub is an awesome dude! Great talk!
Imagine what this speaker’s life would have become if evangelical parents had found his D&D stuff, told him having that game was inviting demonic forces into their home, and made him throw everything away and never play it again… that’s my life.
I'm not crying... you are... T_T
