As the Tome Travelers, hosts John and Roxy go on a journey through roleplaying games of the past, present, and future. Sure, you know the big names in RPGs, but this is the show where we take a look at those settings and systems that you may not have heard of, and maybe even some that are out of print. Join us every other week as we travel through the tomes!

Customer Reviews
I love hearing about the RPG Deep Cuts.
Love this show. There are a ton of RPG podcasts out there and that said it’s so refreshing to find one that doesn’t just focus on the hits. I love that it’s a deeper dive into the realm of RPGs, with a little slice of what was going on in the world at the time of their release.
Roll the 12 sided dice
Let's jump in the way back machine and talk about the history of Role Play Games. This is fun and entertaining.
