“This podcast is beautifully done. I have listened through all of Swallows of the South and now Arms of the Tide. Each stands up to multiple listens. This show navigates collaborative story telling via audio formats better than any other live play shows I have listened to. Well done to these folks.”

“Review based on the titular Swallows of the South series.
Swallows of the South is a podcast with a high production value. The episodes are very focused on character interactions and gameplay, with little to no dead air or out-of-character banter. All participants have some good voice acting...”Read full review »

“This actual play podcast is very dedicated to characterizations of it's player characters, but is also fun and apporachable for folks new to Exalted 3rd Ed. As this podcast is episodic it is best to start from the very beginning and just power you way through so as not to get lost in the...”Read full review »

“But the best Exalted podcast you can listen to.
This is not the story of power fantasy fulfillments, where people are Exalted to mow armies. This is a very dramatic, intense story about power, liberty, community, imperialism, and the will to change and step aside the temptation of an easy path....”Read full review »

“After listening to one complete season of the backlog, I am very impressed with this AP. The players are all strong improvisers that find a great balance between working jokes into their scenes and keeping the narrative focus on the characters and the way they develop. Also, the level of editing...”Read full review »

“It’s so refreshing to see a podcast dedicated to such a seemingly esoteric and underestimated game. All of the players seem to have a genuine love for the game, and that really comes across in the show. Keep up the good work! I’d be interested to see where the show goes in the future.”

“In the absence of anything else to listen to, I actually ended up listening to a fair bit more of this podcast, and even though I still think the game would be better if played less like a joke, I am beginning to find this particular joke to be quite funny. It helps not to think of it as...”Read full review »

“This podcast is an incredible actual play and is one of my very favorites. Not only does it showcase a lot of what makes Exalted so cool, it is a great study in DM technique and how to get yourself and players out of binds, and how to deal with a thoroughly unlikeable major character without...”Read full review »

“Exalted is a very difficult system to use and an especially difficult system to use for an Actual Play podcast.
Regardless, Swallows knocks it out of the park. Battle scenes are never boring, instead they are a special work of art that I look forward to.
Download it. Listen to it. All of it....”Read full review »
