The Kart Association’s ruthless enforcers tear through the streets, while the silver-tongued Slick tightens his grip on Shellville with nothing but swagger and menace. But deep beneath the roar of engines lies a tangled web—one that draws Aaron, the steadfast Private Toad, and the ever-resourceful Robert into a world of high drama, undercover theatrics, and a truffle conspiracy as rich as it is dangerous. Passions flare, loyalties crack, and the truth may be more intoxicating than any victory lap.Shea Ingram - Robert Bombert - Undercover method soap-operativeJosh Greenway - Aaron Tula - Webs everything, makes bad guys a drag, stay out of his loft.Daniel Lok - Private Toad - Uses a hammer to solve most of his problems.

Welcome to a very special arc on Crash Course DM. To celebrate the new Game and new Switch 2 Console release, we’re playing an adventure set in Mario Kart World! In the heart of the Mushroom Kingdom… a celebration turns to chaos! The peaceful town of Shellville basks in the glow of simpler days, but peace is shattered with the thunder of engines—the arrival of a notorious racing organization hell-bent on paving paradise into their personal track. Now, fate calls upon three unlikely champions: Robert Bomber, bold and brash; Aaron Tula, steady as the finish line; and Private Toad, loyal to the last lap. Together, they must steer Shellville away from disaster—before the town is swallowed whole by greed, glory, or the stubborn reign of its ancient, long-standing mayor. Love will be tested, alliances forged, and one truth will remain… in Mario Kart World, every race is personal.Starring:Daniel Lok - Private Toad - The grim, PTSD-addled Toad from the royal guard. Still reeling from war with the Koopas.Shea Ingram - Robert Bombert - Unexploded Bob-omb and massive soap opera fan.Josh Greenway - Aaron Tula - A greedy Arantula so talentless, his creative effort circles back around to art again.Chris Arre - Race Director Written by: Chris Arre based on characters and locations from Nintendo’s Mario Kart World.Edited by: Josh Greenway & Daniel Lok
