One of the best TTRPG podcasts out there

I came upon this podcast due to my love of Pirate Borg. It’s a great podcast on Pirate Borg alone, but it’s so much more than that. The content that Luke discusses and the guests he brings on are always top notch. As an aspiring creator, I think that it covers so many aspects of the TTRPG space that other podcasts don’t explore. The Broadside Barrage is always awesome. That part of the Q&A reminds me of someone interviewing your favorite band, but asking the fun questions and not the basic questions everyone asks in a generic interview.

Great podcast about A Pirate OSR TTRPG

I really am enjoying this podcast right out of the gate. While focused on Pirate Borg (which as of this review is being Kickstarter’ed), it has a holistic approach to the ORS and 5e. A love TTRPGs comes through. The podcast has a good range of game creator guests. The podcast covered good balance mechanics, flavor and what Kai cool. Production values are great and it is well edited. The sound levels are good. I can listen to it in my loud work van while driving on the freeway.
