Dave’s First Crawl - a Dungeon Crawler Carl Podcast

Season 3 Recap Episode! This week on Dave’s First Crawl, we’re wrapping up The Dungeon Anarchist’s Cookbook: covering the Epilogue, audiobook end credits, general discussion, and Backstage at the Pineapple Cabaret Part 3.
We look back at the biggest moments of the Iron Tangle: Katia's ascent as a Crawler, the collective embrace of Carl & Donut, the body count ticking up among top 10 Crawlers, and the evolution of Carl's mantra: “I will break them. I will break them all.”
Plus, Dave’s endgame predictions, Book 4 predictions, Reddit shout outs, discussion on the audiobook bonus material, and we address our harshest Apple Podcast critics. Travis in Atlanta, this one’s for you.
Finally, Growler Gary lives! Our favorite repeatedly murdered bartender wakes up backstage at the Pineapple Cabaret: preparing for something that sounds increasingly important. Oh, and Gary may have just stumbled upon the minor combination of resurrection + the power of creation. What could possibly go wrong?
Season 3 is officially in the books. Come tell us everything we got wrong at r/DavesFirstCrawl.

This week on Dave’s First Crawl, we’re covering Chapters 32, 33, and 34 of The Dungeon Anarchist’s Cookbook, DCC Book 3.
Li Na and company provide some much needed backup as Carl rolls out a series of seriously flawed plans to bring Level 4 of the Dungeon to an end. We also finally meet the delightfully unhinged Prepotente and his handler, Miriam Dom, who prove to be no slouches in the Dungeon.
Meanwhile, Carl comes up with another completely reasonable plan: involuntarily summon a Level 250 War God and hurl him at his other dungeon nemeses using the portal carts. Shockingly, something goes wrong...and suddenly Carl is trapped in a televised Death Challenge between an invulnerable god and the deadliest Crawler Killer on the floor.
We also get the unlikely return of a Royal Orc who does not enjoy being digitally fucked. Here, Piglet, Piglet, Piglet!

This week, we cover Chapters 29, 30, and 31 of The Dungeon Anarchist’s Cookbook — DCC Book 3.
The final battle looms as we set the stage for the end of the Iron Tangle, but not before we get a few more twists. Bautista finally reveals that he likes to play with Beanie Babies, Katia gets a bolt designed to make a god bleed, and the prodigal Mordecai returns — only to promptly freak out over Carl’s Ring of Divine Suffering.
Plus, we set up a portal to the Pit as the gang has to HOLD THE LINE against the Krakarens!

This week on Dave's First Crawl, we're covering Chapters 26, 27, and 28 of The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook...and Carl discovers that saving 600 stranded crawlers requires a very "hands on" approach. Poor Growler Gary becomes the unsuspecting MVP of Carl's latest rescue plan, as intricate portal carts, exploding trains, and Krakaren nests push the Iron Tangle closer to complete chaos.
Meanwhile, Princess Donut is forced to give up a fortune in train hats to save everyone else...only to receive one of the most heartfelt tributes in the series so far. End game for floor 4 is approaching ladies and gentlemen!
Plus, we discuss Reddit moderator Nazis, a very random Horror movie review, and Dave declares war on those who don't respect auditory boundaries.

Katia accidentally kills the #2 crawler in the dungeon, jumps 13 levels, and ends up with a ridiculously overpowered crossbow. Sometimes the AI System just says, "Congratulations, you've got main character energy now."
Turns out Hekla's assassination plot was even bolder than we thought. Carl pieces together the entire scheme, Silfa realizes she was just a pawn, Eva makes an escape, and Brynhild's Daughters completely implode.
And because Carl apparently hasn't learned his lesson, he decides the only reasonable plan from here is to save every stranded crawler on the floor. Can he actually save them all?
Plus, lots of shout-outs to our Redditors. Come talk some more shit to us on....r/DavesFirstCrawl.
