  • One of my favorite podcasts!

    I stumbled upon roll for lore in my search for a good D&D podcast and I was shocked when I realized that this show is a side project produced by the 2 hosts and not a larger studio. Jess and Sean have a great dynamic & a real knack for podcasting. I started listening to the show by playing through the newer episodes first & I got hooked to the point where I’ve binged most of the show. If you’re just getting into the podcast I’d recommend listening to a few of the newer episodes first before goi... more

  • Excellent for seasoned players and new players alike

    Are you someone who’s only seen home brew campaigns so know nothing about D&D lore? Were you like me and felt like you missed something when Shadowheart said she worshipped Shar like it’s something important in BG3? Have you thought to yourself “man who is Ed Greenwood and why is he the best?” Then BAM! Sean and Jess got you covered with Roll for Lore! The most excellent hosts. The grandest community. All that and more found here every week. Although the best comments are on Spotify lol.
