If you enjoy actual play storytelling with rich narrative, chemistry, and raucous fun, you absolutely should be listening to Trials of the Apocalypse. David is an exceptional GM/MC/Keeper, who each game skillfully leads a rotating cast of witty, charming, and talented players through a different Powered by the Apocalypse system. From grannies solving murder mysteries to queer military dramas, this show epitomizes the collaborative storytelling that makes PbtA games so much fun to listen to. Creating an actual play anthology that balances meaningful world building and interpersonal character development with enjoyable pacing is SO tricky - but TotA hits the nail on the head every single time. No matter what sort of genre you’re into, you find something to love with Trials of the Apocalypse!

Y'all need to be listening to Chillhaven High! The Keeper does an excellent job of building the fiction through deeply evocative descriptions and collaborative worldbuilding with the players. The monsters are unique and truly terrifying, with a definite science fiction bent that's underrepresented in most Monster of the Week actual plays. The cast and characters are hilarious and engaging, with great queer representation throughout.What really makes this show special though is the production value. The editing is stellar, the music is all-original and absolutely slaps, and the sound effects are perfectly balanced to immerse you in the narrative without being overdone or distracting. On multiple occasions I've been legitimately startled while listening, thinking that a snarling blankanthrope, sentient robo-insectoid, or rogue science gadget is right behind me. What more could you ask for?!Go give this show a listen!

Shrimp and Crits is an absolute gem. The pacing, production value, worldbuilding, and chemistry of the group are all outstanding. The Keeper (GM) Ian does a tremendous job keeping the group on their toes with unique monsters and intriguing mysteries. Mysterious Agent of FAE Ari Green, heart of gold gatorman Ray Ray Lareaux, and painfully earnest deputy Sarah Payne are all immensely fun and multi-dimensional characters that you can't help but root for. Their monster hunting hijinks are hilarious, captivating, and just the right amount of spooky.If you enjoy Monster of the Week, actual play shows, or just good storytelling - you simply must give Shrimp & Crits a listen!
