I forgot to post this little Transplanar RPG sketch here! I'm catching up with the podcast episodes (and I'll soon switch back to YouTube once I'm done with those) and I just can't say how good Transplanar is! It kept me company through the last couple of years and I absolutely love it, when I think it can't possibly get any better it does over and over again. I'm now listening to the Hounds of Mercy and damn, that's such a great miniseries and fits to well with the rest! I love all the PCs and I can't wait to get to hear the new additions to the other Arcs of the series~
[ID: A simplified sketch of Manaia, Vee, Dewey and Øka from TransplanarRPG's Arc Four. Manaia is a half-orc with pointed ears and tusks, her coily hair is braided at the sides of her head and the rest falls on her face and side. Vee is an elf with long pointed ears and a tie, her hair is straight and shaved on one side and long on the other side. Dewey is a pigeon aarakocra with glasses and ruffled feathers. Øka is an aasimar with piercings and scars on their face, their hair is straight and short. End ID]

but what dnd podcast r u listening to tho !!!
This is incredibly late because I moved across the country and also made the mistake of checking my inbox when I didn't have time to talk and also I got long so it goes under a readmore lol
Naddpod- The Best Of Both Worlds, amazing comedy podcast, will make you lose your mind with the bullshit they pull. Brian Murphy is A Great DM who cannot role dice well to save his life and I love that for them! I have laughed, I have cried, I have nearly had to pull over my car to scream while lisitening. They also know the rules of the game and follow them well more often than not, which is a perk when like me you love dnd but have very raerly played. (I think this is what I made the post that led to this ask about but it could have also been-- )
Dungeons and Daddies (Not a BDSM Podcast)- Listen these assholes (affectionate) do not know how to play dungeons and dragons 95% of the time, but they don't need to!!! Who needs to know the difference between a check and a saving throw? Who needs to use core abilities of your class before the finale?? Not these guys! But if you want a lose your mind funny comedy podcast that is loosely based on dnd? 10/10 the absolute best. Plus Anthony (and also Will in his mini series) makes up the best mechanics. This man made up fortnite for dnd, football mechanics, he dnd-iffied a courtroom trial. For a 3 episode mini-series he made a mechanic for regency era marriage potential!!!!! Listen to Dndads you will not regret it.
3 Black Halflings- So technically speaking they are not completely an actual play podcast. Technically speaking they are a dnd podcast promoting diversity and inclusion in a community that desperately needs it and highlights both old and new problems within the system and community. And their talkshow episodes are enlightening and have taught me a hell of a lot (and they also do breakdown episodes on classes for anybody who might be interested in them) But also their actual play podcasts are.... So Good. The first is The Cub and the Caterpillar (which I am still actively dying for Season 2 of if Unati can ever come back in any way shape or form !!!!) which is set in Wagadu and basically ruined my life with the finale. Their second, shorter campaign was Outlaws and Obelisks set in Utaram which is a post-apocolyptic home brewed setting (and features Connie Chang of Transplanar and Jonathan Charles who makes the music for the show as main party members and Emily Axford of Naddpod as a 'guest role'). It's definitely heavier on the body horror just by nature of the setting but like.... Not in a way that bothered me and honestly if you asked me it's worth it. They also just finished a 4 episode mini-campaign set in a different home brewed world that is in more of a....darker fantasy metropolis? It's nitty, gritty and so so good and if they don't do more in this 'verse I'm going to absolutely lose my mind. My final thoughts about them is their actual play episodes are long, and can get up to about 2+ hours easily. They're also definitely not a comedy podcast unlike the other ones that I generally listen to. But they will make you laugh !! They are so, so worth the time investment !!! I love them and you will love them too !!! And subscribe to their patreon so they can make an official sourcebook for Utaram !!!!
I do technically listen to taz and I do enjoy their newer campaign in Ethersea buuuuut honestly I'm only putting this on the list as a formality because 1. I think they're well known enough and 2. I don't necessarily listen to them as much as I used to lol
