A mysterious flash lights up the western horizon… and suddenly, nothing feels accidental anymore.

In this episode of Can We Level Up Yet?, the crew limps toward Titia after barely surviving a rift to the Smoke Plane—only to stumble into new problems, new allies, and very questionable financial decisions. Murphy wrestles with a gut feeling that something bigger is happening. Ripple invents solutions (and possibly new problems). Max continues his rise as the world’s most enthusiastic boy hero.

Along the way, they encounter imperial tax collectors, elite sea mercenaries, and whispers of a dangerous art thief tied to a Tabaxi past that might hit a little too close to home.

Also: pancakes, ship upgrades, and a crowd forming for someone called Little Wittles.

You know. Normal hero stuff.

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.

A smoke elemental battle leads the crew of the Sailing Sales into a hidden research facility where a dangerous magical experiment has gone horribly wrong.

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.

With unstable portals, rogue elementals, and a magical feedback loop threatening to tear the facility apart, the crew must figure out how to shut it down before the entire mountain explodes into another plane.

The battle is over.

The questions are not.

In the aftermath of the Salt-Cursed assault, the crew of the Sailing Sales finds themselves navigating something far more complicated than undead sailors: gratitude, suspicion, and the uncomfortable reality that they may have played a role in what happened.

Repairs begin. Stories spread. The village processes what it survived.

Max wrestles with what heroism actually costs. Murphy refuses to let the mystery go. Ripple insists this is all part of a much larger understanding of arcane phenomena.

It is unclear whether that understanding exists.

Episode 5 continues the story in Can We Level Up Yet?, the Best New Dungeons & Dragons podcast of 2026. This narrative-first D&D actual play blends character-driven improv, escalating world-building, and just enough chaos to keep the Endless Isles unpredictable.

The storm has passed.

The wake is still moving.

The Salt-Cursed have arrived.

What was meant to be a peaceful stop in a deeply community-oriented fishing village turns into an all-out brawl against undead sailors wrapped in spectral chains. The storm is loud. The streets are chaos. And the locals? Extremely committed to fisting.

As in punching.

Repeatedly.

Max doubles down on heroics. Murphy innovates under pressure. Ripple insists this is all part of a larger strategy.

It is not clear that it is.

Episode 4 continues the chaos in Can We Level Up Yet?, the Best New Dungeons & Dragons podcast of 2026. This narrative-first D&D actual play blends character-driven improv, ridiculous combat decisions, and ocean-soaked mystery as the crew of the Sailing Sales fights to save a village that absolutely fights back.

The undead brought chains.

The villagers brought fists.

Roll initiative.

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.

The crew wakes up in jail.

No one is entirely sure how bad the charges are, how long they’re staying, or whether the local authorities are competent enough to notice an escape. As tempers cool and confidence spikes, a risky plan begins to form. It involves social engineering, misplaced trust, and a surprising amount of baked goods.

Outside the cell, power dynamics are stranger than expected. Inside it, old memories resurface, new creations take shape, and one very important family connection comes to light.

Episode 2 continues the story in Can We Level Up Yet?, the Best New Dungeons & Dragons podcast, blending narrative-first D&D actual play, character-led improv, and escalating consequences.

Freedom is possible. Legality is questionable. Heroism is… negotiable.

The Sailing Sales sets out on its very first journey across the Endless Isles with a simple plan: arrive somewhere profitable and cause minimal trouble.
That plan does not survive contact with reality.

A missing map, a suspiciously helpful island, and a deeply committed bureaucracy stand between the crew and their first successful day as traveling merchants. As paperwork piles up and heroic instincts kick in at the worst possible moments, things spiral in ways no one fully intended.

Episode 1 launches the adventure in Can We Level Up Yet?, the Best New D&D Podcast, blending narrative-first Dungeons & Dragons actual play, improv-driven storytelling, and chaotic comedy.

By the end of the day, questions remain unanswered, authorities are concerned, and at least one situation has gone very, very wrong.

Welcome to the Endless Isles. Roll initiative.
