Customer Reviews
Amazing show
Absolutely love the way Daniel and Agatha present information and controversial topics. Every problem presented is coupled with some kind of solution and nuanced explanation for how it affects people. I also love the way they shine a light on other creators and scholars.
So good!
This podcast has provided me with incredible perspective on so many things. As a person who considers themselves pretty aware of personal biases, I find the point of views of the hosts to be so important to understanding how we can all interact, create, and enjoy TTRPGs. I can’t recommend this show enough!
An amazing perspective
I follow DM Steve, and this was an amazing find. With a lot of great perspectives on DnD that I haven’t heard a million times. Can’t wait to keep following.
