Are there any good online tutorials in running or participating in games? Critical Role is nice and all, but it doesn't hold their hands when they need to dotheir own stuff. Especially GMing is daunting for them, no matter how much I help or explain. How do 'the kids' learn this kind of stuff these days? Youtube, TikTok, Backalley Bob??

What goes on in their minds is how to administer a slow and agonizing death to the teacher. Roleplay it!
Just kidding. Almost.
