one of my favorites !!

I want to preface this by saying I love radiant ‘license to kill’ eyre and if you love paladins like I do, you’ll understand. BELIEVE ME, you’ll understand. anyway !! with such a stunning soundtrack & one of the silliest camaraderies you'll have the pleasure of experiencing, rdac is one of the neatest actual play podcasts out there. they have so much fun in enabling bad decisions and i love that !! zach is a WONDERFUL gm & all the players are ALWAYS ready to escalate conflicts. to any potential listener: how do you feel about suspicious moon content ?? and fancy gala politics ?? what about fantasy skrillex, hm ?? go ahead, download these episodes, you'll never be quite prepared for what happens next—and that's the fun part. here we are, on the shoulders of giants, and we still have a lot more to go. :)

Slow start but quite good after it gets rolling

The show starts a little slow, but that tends to be the case with actual play podcasts. It takes a while for the players to get in the groove and the story to settle in. Around episode 8-9 the story really gets going and
I have found it very enjoyable.

The show sprinkles in various game systems to resolve specific situations, which is an interesting mechanic and executed well but not my favorite mechanic. Doing this early in the podcast I felt slowed the settling in progress but the players seem to be into it and it is a fun idea.

The story told is fun and engaging. The Dungeon World system leads to interesting situations and the players really embrace the story and difficult situations. This is definitely a real play podcast worth checking out.

Amazingly Creative Show

I am so thankful for coming across the random reddit post that pointed me toward this show! All the players are amazing and bring the characters to life effortlessly. Also the collective world building between the players and the GM is some of most creative and unique I’ve ever come across. Can’t wait to see what will happen next and how season one wraps up!
