- Still Active?
This was one of my favorite podcasts. Unfortunately, I’m not sure if they’re ever coming back though. Still worth the listen.

Fantastic show with wonderful editing and compelling stories that evolve with the cast.
Apple Podcasts5EstiviroUnited States2 years ago - Voice acting
I love humor, sci fi, short story format, and Realm in general. But these are some of the most annoying voice acting choices I’ve heard. Wouldn’t mind a remix that has the stories using voice actors in their natural tones, and not as if they’re in a Cartoon Network audition.
Apple Podcasts2Traelin10United States2 years ago - Fun story, great antics
Season 2 is firing on all cylinders. The cast (including the DM) has such amazing chemistry and the story is engaging. And on top of that, they're all hilarious. I also love that most of the pop culture references and jokes seem perfectly tailored to me.
Apple Podcasts5kbbaus27United States2 years ago - Awesome
Great show. Listen when driving when Cleo fell in the first episode I laughed till I tested up. Then on a distant toll episode when Ep came out the water to save the day I got misty eyed again. A roller coaster of emotions y’all. Keep it up
