All Roads Tavern is truly a podcast like no other. The sound quality and editing really are top notch. The players are wonderful; balancing an infectious sense of humor with deep roleplaying instincts and uniquely crafted characters. But what has kept All Roads Tavern in my feed for almost 3 years, through pandemic and all, is the amazingly soulful narratives that this proudly Minnesotan pack of nerds weaves. Seeking eerie, profoundly charming story of 80s kids facing eldritch horrors, long before a certain blockbuster series was a glimmer in Netflix’s eye? Try Elder Hollow, and watch for the owls. A zoot-suiting, planet-hopping tale of an epic heist amid a swinging Roaring 20s reborn in orbit, with an ending that left me in total shock? Starswing is your squeeze, good fella. The moving odyssey of a crew on an endless sea, fated to walk the footsteps of giants and become real heroes as they dare to venture beyond reality? Prepare to listen to the fantastical tale of the Void Ocean.
And you, noble reader, scrolling through the interwebs and searching for your next listen. I implore you, give the folks at the All Roads Tavern a try.
Drink’s on Me.
