Lawrence Gregory, only recently returned to the cricket team after quitting a year or two ago, unsure if his love for the game matches his loves for jazz and Aiden. Lawrence's twin brother Lewis, recently transferred into the school from the rival Shipton Academy to reunite with his brother and get him back into the game.

A wealth of tabletop role play!

This feed is ripped audio from The a Gauntlet online gaming community’s YouTube feed of actual play videos for small press and OSR RPGs.

This isn’t slickly-produced improv that nods at RPGs, it’s gamers playing games. They engage the mechanics, use safety tools, and tell fun, moving, and sincere collaborative stories, always taking the time to engage the systems in play. Maybe a particular style or game or crew will bounce off you, but that’s OK! This is what RPGs played for fun sound like.

(My recommendation is to listen at 1.5 speed! It cuts down on the passes and you don’t lose anything comprehension-wise)
