Description
Arguably the world's finest TTRPG actual play podcast, with emphasis on the word "arguably". We play a large variety of tabletop roleplaying games - from the big names to small indie publishers. New episodes stumbling out on a weekly (ish) basis. Each episode usually 90 mins or less.
Our fine theme music is "Never Leave The House" by Barry McCormack http://www.barrymccormack.com

The operatives undertake a somewhat legal contract for the Bloodcutters - transporting a body containing valuable experimental organs across the Wash. But there's a slight snag. It appears somebody else also wants those organs, and will stop at nothing to get them, as we continue our playthrough of "Cities Without Number".
A saxaboom plays a forlorn space jazz tune as the sun fails to
rise yet again over the sprawling technopolis known as the Wash. Our
band of operatives undertake their first heist, stealing a cult guarded
processor from a shadowy corporation, in our continuing playthrough of
Cities Without Number.
Harold the Forest Druid, the thief Tomi Tynglefingers, aided once more by Timothy the Immolator, and their new friend Growly Pete, are hired on by a high priestess of the Iron King to breach a mysterious stone demon head atop a hill overlooking a village and retrieve an artifact she apparently can't just get herself. What could go wrong?
Download the free rulebook and form-fillable character sheet (https://preview.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/449873/Cities-Without-Number-Free-Version), and follow along as Rob guides us through character creation in Kevin Crawford's sandbox cyberpunk TTRPG "Cities Without Number".
After almost half a century has Gary Gygax's legendary demilich Acererak finally met his match at the hands of the fearless and cunning Thankless Roll Players? What do you think?
The party honor Gary Gygax by making some spectacularly bad decisions in the second episode of our three part (so far...) playthrough of "Tomb of Horrors".
For our 100th episode, and to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Dungeons & Dragons, we tackle Gary Gygax's classic 1975 dungeon crawl "Tomb of Horrors". But why tackle this notoriously unbeatable dungeon as high level D&D characters, when you can send in a bunch of Dungeon Crawl Classics zeroes? Will our heroes survive? Of course not. But we guarantee a rollicking good time while they do!
We descend one last time into the stench-filled caverns beneath the Curwen Homestead to find out once and for all the fate that has befallen the family, in our fumble-filled final fling of Daniel J. Bishop's "The Arwich Grinder" for Dungeon Crawl Classics TTRPG.
The party decides to explore the Curwen House in our second of our three episode playthrough of Daniel J. Bishop's "The Arwich Grinder" for Dungeon Crawl Classics. NOTE: This episode is not for the squeamish.
Better bring a sick bag, as the party heads deep into the pines to come to the aid of a family in peril, in the first part of our playthrough of Daniel J. Bishop's genuinely unnerving zero level funnel, "The Arwich Grinder".
Up to their necks in beastmen, the party slash their way onwards and upwards through the mysterious obelisk threatening the village of Hirot. Unlucky dips, a showdown with the bizarre Lantern Master, and wedding bells are in the air, as we conclude our playthrough of Harley Stroh's level 1 adventure "Shadow of the Beakmen".
We kick off our FIFTH season fashionably late and up to our necks in the blood of our enemies, as our heroes return victorious to Hirot with the head of the monstrous Hound in hand, only to find the village ablaze and overrun with giant lizard mounted knights and hideously deformed humanoids, as we play Harley Stroh's level one adventure "Shadow of the Beakmen".
For our final episode of 2023 we leave you with our double length Holiday Thumptacular - Marzio Muscedere's Christmas cracker, "The Doom That Came To Christmas Town" for Dungeon Crawl Classics. Hope to see you all in 2024. Bring your friends!
Armed with the fabled wolf spear, the party returns to the village of Hirot to face down the Hound, in the conclusion of our playthrough of Harley Stroh's "Doom of the Savage Kings" for Dungeon Crawl Classics.
Our thief - and consequently our good listeners - learns a valuable lesson about luck, and our elf and cleric get quite salty in our swearingest, most hair raising (literally) installment so far, as we play part 4 of our "Doom of the Savage Kings" 5 parter.
Come celebrate Thanksgiving with us as our flock of turkeys descend into the Serpent Tomb of the Ulfheonar and discover the magic of the season...or something...in part three of our playthrough of Harley Stroh's "Doom of the Savage Kings" for Dungeon Crawl Classics.
More than a little worse for wear after their misguided attempt to follow the Hound into the Sunken Fens, our heroes seek aid at the village of Hirot. Much intrigue, and more singing than should be allowed, ensues. The mystery deepens, in episode two of our playthrough of Harley Stroh's "Doom of the Savage Kings" for Dungeon Crawl Classics.
The Hound of the Baskervilles meets Beowulf meets a group of big dumb nerds, as we delve into Harley Stroh's classic level 1 adventure for Dungeon Crawl Classics, "Doom of the Savage Kings".
Join us as we go everywhere except the safety of the village, and gasp as we bungle our way incorrectly through the DCC "recover the body" rules (spoiler alert - there will be casualties).
Our hopeless band of peasants continue to press their luck in "The Hole in the Sky". It's episode 13. What can go wrong?
The swift and unexpected finale of our playthrough of Goodman Games' classic murder dungeon "Crypt of the Devil Lich" for Dungeon Crawl Classics.
