A great cast of guys playing with the rules they grew up on.
I've only listened to their playthrough of DCC's Sailors on the Starless Sea funnel, but it was good. A little slow-going at times but overall, good players and DM.

A retro RPG-focused show that leans into old-school rules and storytelling, with a mix of serious, high-stakes play and playful banter. Episodes center on classic fantasy campaigns, dungeon crawls, and OSRIC/Shadowdark-era adventures, highlighting tactical combat, political intrigue, and collaborative world-building. The format emphasizes nostalgic game nostalgia, hands-on table dynamics, and a culture of friendly in-jokes, while exploring mentor-style GM guidance and deep rules debates. Noteworthy is the long-running, rotating-GM structure and the willingness to cross between classic systems, delivering both crunchy mechanics and accessible storytelling for listeners who love traditional tabletop RPGs and community-centric play.
