“Playing a group of reality TV stars thrust into a fantasy world is a solid idea and I'm glad to see it in the hands of a really great, comedically gifted group of players and DMs. The characters are all vivid and well thought-out (not even just the PCs), and I think it would be very easy to make a group of PCs constantly backstabbing and being catty with each other wear thin, but almost at the end of season 1 I still find the group's dynamic to be delightful, even compelling.
The DMs are quite adept in their craft, too. Their presentation of the world and the things and people in it is evocative, their arbitration of the rules is fair while maintaining tension when they need to (and that's major, I've seen some productions where the kiddy gloves are pretty egregious if it's not outright scripted), they present interesting situations and challenges, and they're very smooth about letting the players create an emergent story through their choices. I also have to praise the sound effects, ambient music, and voicework. All very nice touches.
The first few episodes were slower compared to where I'm at now, but emergent story *does* need time to emerge. Nevertheless, you can see what these women are capable of from the very beginning. This is one of the best actual play podcasts I've ever listened to.”Read full review »

“Just like the Bravo Real Housewives franchises this podcast is full of iconic one-liners you won’t stop quoting. The show is hilarious, unhinged, and an absolute blast.”
