E.Walburn ,

One of my few insta-listens

I’m subscribed to so. many. podcasts. Very few of them get listened to the moment an episode drops. But this is one of the few.

I came in via the Campaign: Skyjacks podcast — I’d fallen in love with the world James D’Amato and his players built, and was excited to hear more but a bit apprehensive about an actual-play geared for kids (they can be slower and a bit too cutesy). But my fears were entirely groundless.

Drew Mierzejewski and his crew have crafted a beautiful addition to the world of Spéir, expanding the lore of the setting while telling madcap adventure stories featuring three sky-sailing mail-delivering teens. There’s more than enough “there, there” to keep the most jaded adult podcast listener engaged, while still being accessible and delightful for kids — my 9-year-old loves this podcast even more than I do. (For the record, Kiran is their favorite character but Aaron Catano-Saez is their favorite player. They’re lobbying hard to start listening to his “All My Fantasy Children” podcast after hearing his worldbiilding contributions to Spéir.)

If you like airships, giant birds, strange magics, lowkey teen drama, and godlike beings that touch the lives of mortals, give Courier’s Call a shot! And if you’re an adult or a kid/teen who’s allowed to consume R-rated content, hit the original podcast Campaign: Skyjacks as well.

Booooooooooooooooooop ,

Fantastical and Fun

Skyjacks Courier’s Call is a fun, family friendly game of adventure that is consistently funny, touching, and loving. I wish I could’ve had a story so full of thrills and such a rich world as a kid, little me would have loved pretending to be on an Audron alongside Cici, Kiran, and June but adult me is just as excited to hear them get in and out of trouble every week! Plus, there’s a wide range of representation, which makes me very happy :) Great show, much love to the cast and crew for everything they do!

Very Entertaining

A little bit of game play and a whole lot of personality.

My daughter and I listen together all the time. I enjoy the attempt at depicting a more utopic world that is still full of adventure. She enjoys Cici being ridiculous.
