Awesome show, great content and lovely people. Could you please please apply a pop filter or something to get rid of the mouth noises, for example the “sucking teeth” sound

The is the best actual RPG out there! The games master is clever and creative and bends rules for laughs or story. The cast tend to be hilarious and find the most entertaining ways to accomplish their goals. Often playing to their characters weaknesses and their own detriment. Really top tier editing and sound as well. Love this podcast and would gladly pay for more episodes to come out faster.
