Rolling Misadventures is an improvised collaborative audio fiction podcast. Originally starting as an actual play podcast using the tabletop game Fiasco, Rolling Misadventures quickly evolved by utilizing audio fiction sound design elements. This blend gives tabletop banter that most TTRPG podcasts are known for, but also sets it apart with immersive narrative scenes.

As we focus on shorter story arcs, within two episodes, this allows us to hop between multiple genres. We’ve been able to play within a wild west soap opera, an ‘80s drug heist drama, and a sci-fi future clone murder mystery. The shorter story arcs and wide range of genres means that listeners can hop in at any point.

Kamijace - The Weekly Cooldown ,

A Misadventure for the ages!

This show is, essentially what everyone needs when they're looking for a laugh, or inspiration. Derek, Charles and Megan are excellent, experienced hosts and the ideas they and their guests come up with are top notch. The editing truly brings the podcast together and makes for an exciting (Mis)adventure!

Whose Line is it Anyway meets RPG

What a fun ride! I often find myself needing an emotional break from serious RPG podcasts and searching for something fun, and, I think that search is over. These people are really flippin good at improv roleplaying and I want to laugh with them and learn from them!

Tjvonp ,

Great intro to actual plays

Okay, so I've listened to a bunch of "actual play TTRPG podcasts." And while I love them, it's often hard to tell if people with zero TTRPG experience will enjoy them. Not here! The short, contained stories (usually 2 episodes) and narrative structure of the game they are playing make this show a GREAT way to test the waters with your buddy who do far only listens to news and "two to three friends talking" shows.

Plus this show is, ya know, good.
