Description

Welcome to Setting the Stage, a podcast where I, Isaac Shaker, talk with guests about different campaign settings for roleplaying games.


We cover established settings, such as those made for D&D, like Faerun and Greyahwk. We also discuss settings that are adapted for RPGs, like Middle-Earth and Star Wars. I interview members of the RPG community who have created their own campaign worlds. This is a chance for the guest to show off what they’ve made, explain challenges they’ve overcome, and discuss paths that didn’t work for them when creating their campaign setting. Our homebrew worlds often get no attention outside of our own play groups, so this is a way to present a DM’s hard work to a wider audience.


This wouldn't be possible without the amazing RPG community and I'm looking forward to interviewing you!

Jake runs an actual play podcast called Crit Talkers that features several different campaigns all set within the same universe. The main area of interest is the Kingdom of Legacy, the last surviving place in the world. Leaving the Kingdom of Legacy is impossible due to some magical influence and records of what existed before are gone. While it may seem like a typical D&D fantasy world at first, technology has advanced to about 1960s level. Adventurers are employed by corporations with contracts and sponsorship deals for their magic items. The PCs delve into dungeons to find lost artifacts and possibly discover the forgotten history of their world.You can learn more about Crit Talkers on their webiste or subscribe to them on the podcast platform of your choice.They're also active on Facebook and Instagram.Check out the Setting the Stage website!Want to be on the show?
