Here is a link to the first episode of Dan Harmon’s Harmonquest. The popular comedy show was the result of a segment on Dan Harmon’s podcast Harmontown in which him and cohost Jeff Davis would play DnD. The games Dungeon Master Spencer Crittenden became an instant show favourite following his fated guest appearance on the first episode in which Dan and Jeff decided to see how playing DnD on their podcast would pan out. The segment became a defining feature of Harmontown, and the group even went on a live tour where fans from all over the states came out to see the comedic troupe engage in fantasy roleplaying. Years later, Dan’s studio Starburns Enterprise took the segment to a whole new level. Harmonquest features the same staple characters from the podcast with the addition of a new guest host every week. The show switched between live footage and animated segments portraying the collective narration. The popularity of Harmonquest is further evidence of the DnD’s growing fanbase and evolution beyond it’s reputation as past time for pariahs and devil worshipers.
