    Ivy Insights

    The The Pod Has Been Cast podcast is undoubtedly one of the best tabletop gaming podcasts out there. From the moment I started listening, it secured a spot in my top five. The characters in this show are absolutely delightful, each with their own unique personalities that add depth and charm to the story. The setting of the podcast is also incredibly mysterious and compelling, keeping me hooked from episode to episode. Additionally, the balance between humor and gameplay is spot on, making for an entertaining and engaging listen.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is the voice actors involved. They are all incredibly engaging and bring their characters to life in a way that makes you feel like you're right there with them on their adventure. The storytelling is twisty and keeps you on your toes, constantly guessing what will happen next. There are also some great interpersonal moments that strengthen character development and make you care about what happens to them.

    The production value of this show is top-notch, with fantastic editing and sound design. The host's voice is smooth and easy to listen to, making it a pleasure to follow along with the story. The addition of music adds another layer of immersion and enhances the overall experience.

    However, as much as I love this podcast, it has one downside - it's so good that it has caused me to neglect all my other podcasts since I started binge-listening to it. This may not be an issue for everyone, but for someone who enjoys a variety of podcasts, it can be frustrating to not give attention to other shows that deserve it.

    In conclusion, The Pod Has Been Cast podcast is an exceptional D&D listen. The world-building by Void Master Joolz is rich and captivating, rooted in a genuine love for the game that shines through every episode. The group has created fun and memorable characters that add depth to the story. With high-quality voice acting, music, special effects, and an engaging story, this podcast is a must-listen for any fan of tabletop gaming or storytelling. I can't wait to see where the adventure takes these characters next.

    Welcome, Artists, to the world of Divination RPG! The PHB Cast is entering their spooky era for this limited series run of the Tarot-driven TTRPG, Divination. A little about the game: Divination is a Tarot-driven roleplaying game about the voices inside a person's head. What does it mean to be Tarot-driven? Simply that the cards are at the heart of everything from mechanics to story: they've defined the entire magical universe in which the game exists, they're used to create characters and shape narrative, and they drive outcomes through rich and exciting game mechanics that are just as satisfying as rolling dice in other RPGs. Guided by Diviner Bianca, Joolz, Alina, James, and Nyx work together to build their shared Hero alongside their individual Aspects. An unedited video version will be available to view on our YouTube Channel!

    Hey Voidfarer, quite a ride huh? Hey now, no tears. Try to remember the good times. I tried to teach you everything I know about the Void, now it's time for you to make a go of it on your own. Don't be afraid now, the Void is endless and dangerous, but also filled with life and hope- go out there and get after it. In this one Raine, Xandar, and H.A.R.T change the Void.

    Hey Voidfarer, these are the times we live for. Some folks live life slower than molasses running up hill in the winter. But me? I'd rather live it fast. We might not have much time left, so why waste it? In this one, Raine, Xandar and H.A.R.T. set their sights on the finish line.

    Hey Voidfarer, this is your pal Orion Starcross interrupting your regularly scheduled programming to remind you that “aliens” are nothing to be afraid of. Our friends from the stars have a lot to offer us as long as we keep an open mind and open heart. If we want humanity to thrive in the Void we're going to need all the help we can get. Just remember, galactic integration doesn't mean we have to lose our special human touch, just that we have to share our humanity farther and wider than ever before. In this one Raine, Xandar, and H.A.R.T go way back.

    Hey Voidfarer, time to see if this little show was worth the price of admission. When I was tearing it up on this old rock as a youngster I remember sneaking into an R rated VRfilm with some of my buddies. Can't even tell you what it was about; all I remember is the feeling of getting away with something. Like a drug. In this one Raine, Xandar, and H.A.R.T blast through.

    Hey Voidfarer, they say you can never really go home. Honestly, I never tried it myself. Maybe it's the thought of going backwards, maybe it's the look on the faces of the ones I left behind.

    Hey Voidfarer, the barrier is pretty thin when you get to thinking about it. All that separates you from the howling void is a sheet of metal and maybe a few copper wires and pipes. Only takes a small breach to tear through that warm precious flimsy atmosphere and cut you to the core. Don't go opening things up unless you're ready for what's on the other side, waiting. In this one Raine, Xandar, and H.A.R.T plug in.
