New Iron Realm convert

I recently started listening. On episode 15. I’ll catch up eventually. So a recent episode gave a brief history of the Realm and I understand that the souls of all that have died throughout the multiverse? are regenerated or resurrected therein.
Being a Riverworld fan I can only hope our Mazemaster was influenced even a little.
As I said, I am new to the podcast so don’t have any expectations but enjoying it so far.

I wanted to like this podcast. I truly did.

I have heard this podcast advertised on other D&D and similar game podcasts. I have even heard the podcaster be a guest on podcasts I really enjoyed and he sounded wonderful. So after finding it here I was excited. Then seeing the Iron Realm had well over 115 episodes I was extremely thrilled. Then the maze happened. I get there are some folks that love listening to those number stations, I am not one of them. He seemed to feel that listeners did not enjoy hearing that so it was left out a tad, only because the PCs were so injured they had to heal for so many episodes I lost count after five. I made it to episode seventeen. Maybe on the eighteenth it catches on fire, but I will not know. I hope you go and do what you love. Please make the things you enjoy, not what some rando on the interwebs whines about. Thank you.

Compelling dark fantasy storytelling!

An incredibly captivating story! One characteristic that sets this apart from other DnD based podcasts is that it's not afraid to tackle adult content... don't listen with the kiddos in the car, for sure! It's a very deep and well thought out world with many different characters and "tribes" (groups of characters) with different motivations. The care and thought that has gone into this podcast and the authors passion for the subject matter is readily apparent.
