Androids & Aliens

I've been following the Glass Cannon Network for several years and am mostly through the Giant Slayer campaign and completed Get in the Trunk. If you loved either of those, you'll probably love this one. It's the same very funny and talented group of people.

My Spotify Wrapped says I listened to over 26,000 minutes of the Glass Cannon Network this year, so I think it’s past time I left a review. This show (Androids & Aliens) introduced me not only to the GCN but to role-playing games in general (I was a different flavor of nerd growing up, never a gamer.) If you like hilarious people, amazing character-building/ world-building/ storytelling, and RULES (the existence of them, if not the *perfect* following of them) you will love the GCN. You don’t need a background in Pathfinder or D&D to enjoy this fantastic story.

I get that he is a shock jock personality but it wears painfully thin as he just goes for childish jokes about where people are from, their accents, or even gender. It takes having children for him to remotely tamp down the “edginess” with some perspective and even then it takes adding Sydney before the blatant misogyny and talking over Eleanor slows down.

I’ve listened to a lot of actual-plays, and this one is by far my favorite. I’ve listened to the whole thing through THREE times and it never gets old. I listen to this show the way people watch their favorite sitcom (Office, Seinfeld, etc, etc…), enjoying it and finding it hilarious no matter how many times I’ve listened to it. The banter is hilarious, the chemistry starts off strong and gets stronger each episode, the story is epic, and the tactical play is so fun to listen to. I’ve loved it so much I’m starting my own Starfinder group! Thank you so much GCP! I love you all! Please record a second season when Starfinder 2e is officially released! And bring back Eleanor (a.k.a. “The Cincinnati Kid”)!
