Know Direction Network

I've been listening to KD for a few years now and got iTunes on my PC just to start rating all of the podcasts that I love. KD is definetly in the top! The news shows (KD:Prime and Know Direction: Beyond) are full of great information for fans of Paizo products and the RPG community writ-large. Their actual plays are getting better as they go, transitioning from a News Organization to an Actual Play team is probably quite a transition!

Used to be a go to podcast and one I would recommend. Lately. Its lost it spark. Hosts talk like they are on NPR and could put you to sleep. Don’t know why hosts were chosen when main hosts were leaving but they did not find folks who know the game and are excited to talk about it at all, let alone produce consistent content. Very sad that I just don’t want to listen anymore.

I used to be a regular listener and even contributor for the show, but ever since Ryan and Perram passed the helm, the show seems to have taken a turn. We don’t seem to get a much as far as pathfinder news and insights anymore. Also the pathfinder content has shifted its focus to social issues over rpg info in my opinion, which I didn’t think was the focus of the podcast. I do still greatly enjoy Digital Divination and their content, just miss when we got comparable discussion of pathfinder.

The reviews and interviews are good, and I love the actual play episodes. I wish there were more of them.
