     After reading about a shortage of DMs in New York article and on different social media Saul and Jolene looked into this idea.   First of all is there a DM shortage?  The article was in Hellgate an online local "newspaper".  In it the author states that there is a large calling for DM by a large number of new players that want to play Dungeons and Dragons.  
      Saul thinks that this might be a D&D 5th edition and specifically in New York City problem,, due to a variety of factors.   Jolene and Saul discuss the merits of the article and how it might be a problem in other large metropolitan areas.

   As Always Thanks for listening.
