Great MotW Podcast - Awesome Story and Amazing Characters!

I originally started listening to tabletop play podcasts after stumbling onto The Adventure Zone. As TAZ wrapped up their Amnesty season, I wanted something kind of similar and happened upon The Critshow and I have loved it ever since!

I work an office job and work anywhere between eight to twelve hours a day and this show has entertained me thoroughly during that time. I find myself laughing with the players, I’ve cried... the guys have done a great job with the story and it’s hard not to love all of the characters. The world that these guys have created together is just awesome. I love the monsters that the boys have gone up against and love the twists and turns — it’s definitely worth the listen!

Great job guys and keep up the great work!

Best Actual Play podcast out there

I was looking for another actual play podcast (after binging the Ballance arc of The Adventure Zone) and this show was recommended to me. It has been the best recommendation I have ever gotten! I started it hesitantly, and it is amazing! I binged all the episodes that I had available (around 30) in a few weeks and have been an avid follower since! I get excited every Wednesday for the new episodes and frequent additional mini-arcs in other games.
