  • Roll Ponder & Play

    Jared has the perfect voice for this kind of gritty dark fantasy. His Ironsworn adventures will suck you in and before you know it, you'll be right there in the Iron Lands with him. Jared is an excellent writer, too - in every episode, you feel like you are in good hands. This was my most played podcast through Spotify in 2025.

    True Noir probably would’ve sounded better, if you weren’t pirating them. REPORTED.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How to Start a Cult
Q: Why do you think the audience reacts so strongly to the 'divine chill' concept?
Because it taps into a primal desire for belonging and transcendence, which can be exploited by a persuasive figure who promises safety and identity.
