One of my favorite D

I found this show while looking for actual play podcasts of the Storm King’s Thunder adventure, which I’m running for my party. After the first episode, I was hooked. Jo is a great DM who keeps things moving, flexes rules a bit when the game play benefits from it, and knows her stuff, making it all seem effortless (it’s not!). The players are great too — they’re clearly having a lot of fun with one another, and that makes the show fun to listen to. But there are also heavier moments, tough choices, moral quandaries, and so on. Episodes are a great length, leaving me wishing they were longer every time rather than tending to make me feel exhausted as some longer-form shows do. The Discord community around the stream (and the related INVICTUS Stream podcast) is great. When a new episode comes out each week, I stop all my other listening to fit this one in. It’s definitely worth a listen if you’re into actual play D
