## Resource

The Adventures of Bud & Herb is an award-winning fantasy podcast that blends immersive audio fiction with actual play storytelling. When a monstrous cryptid surfaces, a child disappears, and a strange cult begins to stir, only Bud and Herb can uncover the truth of what is happening in their cozy little town of Mystra's Glen. Banished from their beloved Mystra’s Glen and blamed for crimes they didn’t commit, the Mystra's Glen Cryptid Club must clear their names if they have any hope of rescuing Theo Diggle, a local boy snatched by the ominous Children of the Flowering Death. But first, Bud, Herb, and the rest of the club must survive a terrifying new cryptid with the help of an unexpected ally.
