Thoroughly enjoy

Recently gotten back the interest of being involved in D&D and RPGs. I do thoroughly enjoy and appreciate the story and fun that these guys are producing. I’m 30 some odd episodes in and look forward to catching up with the next 200 and beyond.

Solid Podcast

Great DND podcast that capture the spirit of old school DnD. Where self survival and treasure debates was were hours of fun .. thankfiully they cut that down and give the good bits ! So if you like to see some unscripted party interactions, nonShakespeare actors and spider facts listen to these old gits .

Excellent and Hilarious!

A thoroughly entertaining d&d 5e actual play podcast! The guys have a comedic chemistry that keeps me cracking up. I also appreciate their mostly apolitical stance (at least from my American view). It’s a breath of fresh air from the overwhelming amount of “woke” ideology that is pushed in 99% of actual play podcasts. Keep it up guys! Love it!

Five Star FUN

Dan, Lucas, Graham, Paul, Mike, and Johnny light up the room with Billowng Hilltop - a truly upbeat RPG podcast. I get a kick out of hearing them play off of each other, and I think you will, too. Just finished listening to episode 35 - Walking in the Lair - and it's awesome to hear how these guys have really hit their stride. The show kicks into the action in short order after making some plans for NPCing Uncle Buggy and after reviewing fan mail for kicks. Then it's off to adventure at the lair of the Twisted Branch Tribe of Lizardfolk and dealing with an Undead infestation upon the lands in the hopes of rescuing Marzena the Battle Mage, for they are hot on her trail. I'll say no more - let's just say you have to hear it for yourself. Make mine Billowing Hilltop!
