  • Fantastic Show

    D.A.D. Here! This show is amazing. I love how well all the cast and characters interact with one another. I also love how they have their own character development throughout the show. My favorite character would have to be Mavis though because of her social awkwardness as well as how blunt she can be sometimes. Keep up the amazing work!!!! D.A.D out💅🏽

    Probably my favorite d&d podcast! It’s super fun to listen to and I love how different and unique all the characters are! I also love the horror overall and the details that are explained PERFECTLY! And besides it being a spooky podcast it also has just the right amount of comedy mixed in! Overall it’s an awesome podcast that even people who don’t play d&d can enjoy! ❤️
