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.

This show centers on collaborative, long-form tabletop role-playing with a strong retro focus. Episodes feature campaigns and one-shot adventures across OSR-derived systems and Shadowdark, with a mix of exploration, combat, and puzzle-solving, all delivered through informal banter, humor, and character-driven storytelling. Listeners get a sense of community and nostalgia for classic RPG roots, plus a willingness to experiment with new systems like Shadowdark and Mothership. A notable strength is the balance between high-stakes dungeon crawls and lighthearted host banter, making complex mechanics approachable and entertaining for fans of old-school play and modern twists alike.
