  • Literally was life-changing

    The Playbetter Podcast literally changed my life and view towards games when I began listening to it in high school. I definitely recommend giving it a listen. Their 2014 Halloween special is still unsurpassed imo in quality.

  • LFP

    I went searching for L5R 5th ed games to watch, as I'm trying to learn how to generally run a game, and I came across this podcast's youtube channel, which a comment there said the video was only part of what happened, so I searched here and found the podcast. I've not watched yet, so I hope it turns out well. So for now, four stars rated blindly and in good faith and hope.

  • Finish What You started

    I listen to this podcast solely for Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition episodes. The charcters are good and so are group of people playing. I've learned several new lessons over my course of listening, however the one thing that annoys me is that this group can't finish what they started. The only campaign they finished was the Curse of Strahd. The party next moved onto Storm King's Thunder and stopped after their 13th podcast of playing this campaign. The party then moves onto 2 other campaig... more

  • Great podcast

    I the are plenty of bad RPG actual play podcast on iTunes but this is not one of them. Good quality and fun to listen to. Cast has a lot of charisma and they're not boring at all. They stay in character for most part and you don't feel like they waste your time at all. I listened to one actual play and got addicted. If you have long journey ahead please give them a shot.

  • Playing Better

    The references are on point, the players are fantastic, and the breadth of games they cover is amazing. One of my favorite tabletop games podcasts.

  • Play a Little Podcast

    If my tabletop group spent 2 out of 3 hours talking about movie trivia, tangential stories or making puns/jokes, I would intentionally fail my saving throw vs death. Maybe I was unfortunate enough to listen to a really bad Actual Play session as my first listen, but it was so gawd-awful, I don't think I can handle listening to any more. Unsubscribe.
