Crit-ical Listen

Alas! If you are looking for your next favorite podcast, here it is!

S&C is built from the wonderful talents of Ian, Catie, Ryan, and Cap. Each brings something fun and dynamic to their particular flavor of storytelling. Their balanced chemistry and world building attributes make for an authentic and transporting experience.

Plus, everyone has an infectious laugh and you can never tell how the dice have landed since their reactions are never telling!

It’s been a joy to see how they’ve developed over the years as creators. Like cutting and polishing a freshly unearthed gem, they keep shining brighter and explore new depths with each part of the story they tell.

Along with a vast range of vocal talents, their unique music and production quality are outstanding. It takes a lot of work to craft and edit sessions into episodes, and it’s much appreciated as a listener.

Post Season One, I’m so glad they’ve chosen the route of independent rpgs. Very exciting to see how each plays out, especially as they take turns wearing the GM hat.

You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll be hungry for more.

Great!

On episode 54 and super invested in the campaign. Interesting story with real stakes, really engaging GM, great chemistry between players, natural humor.

Shrimply Having a Wonderful Critmas Time

This is not a holiday-themed review… but Shrimp and Crits has amazing holiday specials. Nice segue, me. Anyways, this is a grade-A show with fantastic characters, storylines, lore, and jokes. The characters’ actions have real consequences, good and bad, which helps you feel invested each time they make a decision. All around it’s a fantastic show made by fantastic people.
