I hope these tips help you when you're too busy to plan or prep you're next session. I use these tools all the time and it's been a lot of fun and really takes a lot of the stress out of being a DM.

Can't say that I'm a fan of Oracle Dice methods. Seems like it would slow play if you have to roll for everything. Also, I generally just answer the questions based on how the location / encounter / thing appears to me within my own imagination.
Player: "Is the door locked?"
Me in my head: (does it make sense for the door to be locked: yes or no)

I like the idea of random tables for low / no prep though. While it may slow down play if you are not using it for advance prep, if you got absolutely nothing then at least the table can give you some basics to start with. Once you have the basic premise rolled up then you can move away from / minimize rolling during play.

Thanks for the video! Hope you get some more free time to enjoy your gaming :-)
