If you like D&D, improv comedy, and/or Anthony Burch (he wrote Borderlands 2), then I have a happier podcast recommendation for you: Dungeons and Daddies. 4 dad characters find themselves in the D&D universe and need to rescue their children. Burch runs the campaign. Dad jokes aplenty. I'm only a few episodes in so far, but my wife is much further and says it's incredible. I'm already very sold on it and have been since like episode 2.
I’ve never played D&D but have a general understanding of the concept and how it’s played. I listened to the first episode and they definitely started to hit their stride towards the end of the first episode, I’m mostly through the second episode and starting to really enjoy it. Thank you for the recommendation!
Happy to help! I love that it doesn't really require much knowledge of the systems and player options. It's just good collaborative storytelling. I've played and DMed 5e quite a bit and it really is as fun as it sounds if you have a decent group. And because of COVID, it's become much more viable to meet people online and play that way if you get excited enough to read the players handbook and want to pick it up one day. Have fun!
