  • Phenomenal addition to dnd media

    Total Party Skill is exactly what I crave as a DM and player who has far too many actual play podcasts to choose from. All I want is a podcast that makes me feel like I’m geeking out with my friends. Gabe, George, and Dylan achieve this effortlessly. The homebrew segment is a constant source of inspiration and is a good reminder that there’s no right way to do creativity. The draft segment are a good deep dive into niche areas of the game and remind me of what’s out there in the world of this ga... more

  • Exactly what I’ve been looking for

    I’ve been a long time fan of the work of these boys! I spectated my very first game of d&d as a child with George as the dm and was lucky enough to play with Gabe and Dylan in the legendary Clearvale campaign.

    I listen to my fair share of actual play podcasts (shoutout to Hero Club), but now that I’m running my own games and just don’t have the time or history to really deep dive into the mechanics, manuals, and spells, I am thrilled to have a recurring podcast that is just ABOUT d&d. I’m alre... more
