    Episode 7 - You Can't Quit, You're Fired

    A secret laboratory.A runaway elemental rift.And a decision that might be the worst idea this party has ever had. In Episode 7 of Can We Level Up Yet?, the crew of the Sailing Sales uncovers a hidden research facility built by the Technocratic Alliance of Gnomish Islands. The lab was meant to study teleportation through the mysterious Plane of Smoke. Something went very, very wrong. With the facility collapsing and the portal spiraling out of control, the party must figure out how the strange arcane machinery works before the entire island gets dragged into the elemental planes. Unfortunately, their solution involves experiments, improvisation, and a level of confidence that may not be fully deserved.  Meanwhile, Ripple discovers the past has a way of catching up with you. Especially when that past includes an old rival from the Adventurer’s League. Expect chaotic problem solving, questionable portal safety practices, and the kind of decisions that only make sense when you're level three. Will the crew stop the rift?Will the lab survive?And will anyone involved learn a lesson from this? Probably not. But they might level up.

In Episode 6 of Can We Level Up Yet?, the Best New D&D actual play podcast of 2026 dives into chaotic combat, arcane experiments, and improvised heroics as Murphy, Ripple, and Max attempt to stop a planar rift from flooding the mountain with smoke elementals. After sealing one portal, the crew discovers the real source of the problem: a T.A.G.I. elemental research facility that was experimenting with teleportation magic and dimensional rifts. What they find inside includes shattered containment chambers, abandoned laboratories, and evidence that the gnomish researchers were trying to harness elemental energy to teleport entire ships across the Endless Isles.  But the experiment didn’t just fail. It created something far worse.

    Episode 3 - I Don't Want Some Random Guy's Finger

    The Sailing Sales leaves Hampstead with a merchant license, a questionable review, and the confidence of a crew that has absolutely learned nothing. Open water brings clarity. And ghostly chains dragging beneath the hull. When Max volunteers to investigate, the ocean answers back. After losing a finger, the crew docks at a small island village just ahead of a gathering storm. The town is welcoming. Friendly. Almost aggressively so. Then the Salt-Cursed arrive. Crusted in sea-salt and bound in spectral chains, the undead spill into tavern halls and torchlit streets. What begins as a quiet night in a fishing village turns into a desperate fight for survival. As necromantic magic creeps inland, one question surfaces: Did the crew bring this with them? Episode 3 deepens the mystery in Can We Level Up Yet?, the Best New Dungeons & Dragons podcast of 2026. Blending narrative-first D&D actual play, character-led improv, and ocean-soaked horror, the Endless Isles begin to reveal that not everything lost at sea stays there. Storms pass. Curses don’t.
