You can feel it in your gut: the energy’s gone. The table’s quieter. The scenes are slower. The spark that once carried your campaign is fading — and no one wants to say it out loud.

This episode is about what to do next.

We explore how to recognize the early signs of a drifting campaign, why players disengage even when the plot is strong, and how to bring life back to your game without forcing a reboot. You’ll learn how to re-center the story around your players, how to reintroduce stakes, and how to run a “reset episode” that reconnects your table. We’ll also talk about the hard stuff — when to let a campaign end, and how to do it with purpose, clarity, and respect.

If your campaign is losing steam and you’re not ready to give up, this episode is the CPR you’ve been waiting for.
