This is definitely one of the best actual play podcasts I've ever listened to. Players and DMs work together perfectly, there isn't too much of the hashing out of rules and mechanics that can often slow down a pacing, and the players do an excellent job fleshing out their characters. If there is a downside to this podcast, it is that it is making me neglect all of my other podcasts - very delicious cliffhangers and story hooks each episode, I have been binging this ever since I started. Excellent!
