  • Hilarious

    I recently discovered this podcast, and had to start listening from the beginning. I’m very glad I did as it just gets progressively better. I also enjoy the variety of RPGs played and the building library of references and jokes and recurring NPCs named for patreons

  • The actual play you are looking for

    BastardQuest is the embodiment, in podcast form, of the phrase "play stupid games, win stupid prizes." Seriously, if you aren't entertained by octogenarian ex-courtesans solving murders, horribly inappropriate jokes about hobbits, and black olive-flavored vape, what are you even doing with your life? Subscribe. It's funny!

  • What’s breath of fresh air!

    Well, as the title says, what a breath of fresh air! This is the best rpg podcast I have ever heard, and that’s saying something. The guys don’t take it too seriously and you can tell they genuinely enjoy the process of playing all of these games and it shows! I had to support them on Patreon to ensure I got all of the content. Can’t wait to hear my name used for an NPC that they brutally massacre.

Q: Please, tell me what happened to Moria?
The dwarves fled, some of them went to live in the Blue Mountains or other dwarven holds after Moria fell suddenly, and apparently they lingered in the western parts of Moria for quite a while trying to reclaim it but then eventually gave that up and went to Erebor.
