  • As a swamp person, I was nervous…

    I’m from Southeast Louisiana, and people aren’t always very nice about those of us who grew up in those swamps, so this podcast was a breath of fresh air! I love Ray so much.

  • Being born and raised in the south, this podcast was going to hit just right anyway. And it is exceedingly well-made, with talented acting and phenomenal music. Ian is a maestro as both the game's mastermind and the resident musician.

    But I'm gonna be real with you for a minute, things are rough out there these days, but the vibes here at S&C are immaculate. You can tell these folks have been friends for a long time, and it shines through in every episode. I never fail to laugh every time I lis... more

  • Dania? I Hardly Know Ya!

    Shrimp and Crits: Dania is a delightful delve into danger, dragons, and dang good world-building. It’s high fantasy, using Ironsworn in a way that makes me want to pick up the TTRPG for my own group, but it keeps the southern, folksy charm of the first season (some might say it even brings more). A wonderful listen all around.
