gilbert_the_hilbert ,

Very realistic representation of DND

This may not be Critical Role but this podcast really gives me the same feeling of when I’m playing DND with my friends, also Apple Podcasts recommended this to me and I noticed the very few reviews but I figured I should give it a shot, was not disappointed!

DarkWingDuck2438 ,

Dom & Dragons!!!!

Great stories, characters & DMs. If you haven’t listened to the episodes of Dom & Dragons (with actor Dominic Monaghan) I highly recommend it!

Caddyshack4ever ,

What an incredible cast and energy!

The world and stories within are remarkably compelling – as are the relationship dynamics between the characters! If I could give this more stars, I certainly would.
