🇮🇸 Iceland became the 17th country on my challenge of playing pick up basketball around the world.
I played in a tournament, hosted a clinic, gave away some cool prizes, and got to sample some of Iceland’s amazing natural wonders.
@BCBParty is even more fun on the second listen.
The depth of world building is incredible and the first listen feels like you are as confused as the PCs.
On the second listen it's hilarious how much I missed the first time.
10/10 must listen for any DnD/ actual play fans
@BCBParty

@ThunderFocus Such a high ceiling but such a low floor.
Give him one last shot to see how much hes improved over the last 3 but if he's not getting to be at least league avg FG% gotta clear the roster for the next lottery pick
Sorry my guy
I’ve seen a lot of different discourse on this player over the season carrying onto the offseason.
Entering year 4, what are your honest thoughts on Aleksej Pokusevski?
In Iceland, kids worry about Gryla, a scary Christmas creature who might eat them if they're naughty. This is different from most places, where kids expect Santa Claus to bring them gifts for Christmas.
The story goes that Gryla lives in a mountain cave and comes to nearby towns every December to collect naughty kids. She takes them home to cook and eat. In one old song, Gryla is said to come from the fields with "forty tails, a bag on her back, a sword in her hand, coming to cut open the kids who asked for meat during Lent." She is often described as having many tails and a scary face.
Gryla is not the only worry for Icelandic kids around Christmas. She has 13 sons, called the Yule Lads, who also cause trouble. They go into homes to slam doors, eat leftovers, steal sausages, and make a mess. Then there's Jólakötturinn, Gryla's big cat, who waits in the snowy hills to eat anyone who didn't get new clothes for Christmas.
