  • Like being at the table!

    A wonderful listen with players who feel like they're there to have fun rather than cater to a monetised audience. MR is my go-to for niche ttrpg actual play - the rules may read fine but do people actually playing sound like they're having fun? more

  • A charming RP listen

    Sometimes RP from actual actors can feel a little aloof or serious but this lot are down to earth and all too happy to go off the silly end. There’s a real variety in the systems and stories for each “play” and I’d say there’s probably something for everyone in there. Personal fav character is Graham, the demon pretending to be an accountant in Vigil :)

  • Big personalities move through genre being silly and occasionally profound. Matt is an excellent GM- gentle and encouraging, guiding the gang in and out of trouble. Start with Lets Get Gideon, the heist series, then try Paralax series’ - my personal favourites.
