Great game, great podcast!

If ever a board game was made for a podcast, then DnD has to be it. This podcast is a great use of both media—gaming and podcasting. Full of good storytelling and good fun. It is great to listen to this motley mix. Good way to introduce yourself to rpg’s, too, though experienced players will be there more for the story. Give it a listen—you won’t be disappointed!

A wonderful adventure

D8 Night is a wonderfully charming adventure with very a very fun cast. You always see people talking about high budget podcasts such as Critical Role when it comes to D&D games, but D8 night reminds you that this is game for anyone, and anyone can have fun playing. And that’s exactly what these guys are doing. Just having fun. I would highly recommend checking this podcast out!

Hilarious!

A lot of podcasts are just talking about various topics, or interviews, which is cool and all, but sometimes you want to listen to some people having a great time hanging out. Well, this is it! I keep laughing at the same jokes over and over, no matter how many times I listen to the episodes. You should listen to so you can laugh as well.
