  • Jumping back on the train of horror

    Listened to you guys a lot around 2015-2017, because I was so interested, but I never found a gaming group, so I kinda fell off.

    But this Xmas, my fiancé gave me the CoC starter kit and is helping me find a game. I’m super excited to jump back on this very informative train of horrors!

  • Down the HIHIHAHA drain

    Used to be an okay podcast and I’ve been tuning in for quite some time. I’m really invested in the topics but with the new host everything’s hilarious and hihiHIHIHIHAHAHA and I’ve tried to get past it but it’s unlistenable for me. I get it, it’s wholesome, it’s positive and fun so best of luck to the hosts and the podcast but I’m signing of. See you in R'lyeh.
