This is the best D&D podcast I’ve ever heard, if not the best podcast.
I first saw this podcast in my Spotify recommendations as I was waiting for my plane in the Denver airport. I thought it was going to be a generic, bland, unoriginal D&D podcast just like the thousands of others cluttering up the internet, but I had nothing better to do so I downloaded the first episode. I began listening during takeoff, and when the first episode ended, I was hooked. It has fun, likable, and relatable characters. Jordan (The DM) is incredible. Every who plays D&D has had that DM who can only do one voice for NPCS, or they get too involved in gameplay, or they try to railroad the story. None of that here. All the NPCS are distinct and memorable and feel like real people. The story unfolds naturally as the players explore and have fun. Player actions have consequences, which is something I find very rare in D&D podcasts. Something as simple as a bar fight has serious ramifications down the line, and I love it. Speaking of the characters: there are those! Jaxon, Larkyn, and Barry are incredible. I’ve said it before, but I love these guys. No single character takes too much of the spotlight. They all have their moments to shine, and they step out of the spotlight when it’s someone else’s moment. They work well together and have actual chemistry. I cannot recommend this enough. If you think this is your thing, try it. If you’re on the fence, try it. If you don’t think you’ll like it, try it anyway. I cannot wait for them to come back.
