Mike Rugnetta and Taylor Moor's team efforts create a cyberpunk version of New York that fires the imagination and refuses to let go, structuring the first heist in such a way the players are consistently visiting locations that spark evokative imagery. It's rare when a TTRPG show makes its setting as equally interesting and fleshed-out as the player characters, Fun City pulls this off in spades. Also the show's choice to have a player at the table who's effectively a deputy game-master in charge of playing antagonists and passive NPCs who can get the players in trouble is a masterstroke. There's also multiple out-of-character mentions of chili, so if you like chili do be prepared for the fact you're gonna want a bowl at multiple points of the campaign.

It's difficult to phrase what makes Rude Tales of Magic work without launching into a list of the confounding things that seemingly are beamed into Branson Reese' brain directly from a team of ornery, potentially inebriated muses. Like an R-rated Willy Wonka he unleashes NPCs on his players that only someone with a genuine comedic rapport can. A lesser crew would flounder by the end of the first episode. If you aren't enchanted by the time you meet Cheddar, I don't know how to help you.
Join the Party

I must sheepishly admit I'm somewhere four or five episodes back from the finale of season one and have yet to touch the second season - an entirely different campaign - out of latent guilt from having not finished the first. What I CAN say is the spirit of what makes Multitude work as a podcast collective is housed inside JtP. From DM Eric Silver acting as an eternal font of excitement and glee to the bittersweet journey of Grugle's warforged, every square inch of JtP is dedicated to something someone in the crew genuinely cares about, and it shows.
Lakeshore & Limbo
Lakeshore & Limbo is an improvised occult-noir detective series podcast, told using tabletop roleplaying game rules.
