    Fantastic Discussion of All-Things about being a DM
    So much great information and opinion. Second only to Matt Colville in those regards. These guys are fun and conversational without going off the rails. I recently DM'ed for the first time in 28 years and I have these guys to, at least partially, thank for helping me get prepared and enthusiastic to run a game. Thank you William, Jake and David. Keep up the good work.

    Definitely give it a listen
    Just started listening to this podcast and I’m glad I did. Insightful but relaxed, these guys are fun to listen to. Give it a try. You won’t be disappointed.

    Retains its value
    I’ve listened to every episode of this podcast and I always tune in right when the new episode drops. As a DM/GM when the time is coming for me to get creative and prep for my gaming table I always come back to this, I’ll re-listen to old episodes before I sit down to work if they pertain to my area of interest for that day.

    It’s a critical hit
    This podcast scratches the RPG itch for me. I, like everyone except Jake, do not get to play enough RPGs. I enjoy living vicariously through the stories from your individual tables. Also this podcast is full of interesting and creative ideas for young and old Game masters. When an episode drops I don’t make it through the day before giving it a listen. Keep it up Gents.

    Always on rotation
    I've been listening from the beginning and am always interested to hear what these three have to say. As someone who's planning to stream a campaign starting early next year, I'm on my third pass through the full playlist to see what new things I can pick up on repeat listens. Highly recommended!

    Super excellent!
    I’ve never played D&D but i was always curious. I ran into this podcast purely by accident and I’m loving it so far. Thanks to this podcast, whichI’m binge listening, i made an experiment with a few friends and ran a quick ten minute zombie apocalypse one-shot just to “explain” D&D to my friends, it was super epic fun and now my friends really want to play so I’m planning my first ever D&D campaign. Keep it up guys you are awesome! Much love from PR.

    One of a kind
    If you are looking to be inspired, go no further. Vox Arcana is a great conversational style podcast reviewing the mechanics and role-playing of dungeons and dragons.

    Great DM banter and rules.
    This is one of my favorite DMing podcasts, it's just the right blend of indepth rules, home-brew ideas, and just chit chatting about how to run and play D&D. I get so many great ideas from them for my campaigns (which I then botch) & I love listening while I draw my comic. Keep up the good work you guys.

    This podcast saved my D&D group!
    I helped organize a D&D group with a buddy who had DMed several times. I had never played before. At the last minute, my buddy dropped out, leaving us without a DM. Not wanting to disband the group, I stepped up and agreed to be DM. I had no idea what I was doing. With the help of William, Luke and David at Vox Arcana, I got a crash course in D&D and how to be a thoughtful DM. I learned the basics and so many tricks, tips and strategies thanks to this podcast. Our group has been going for over a year now, and we're having a blast. Thanks guys!

    The Best there is
    Title says it all. Informative while still being entertaining. The topics are all very interesting and the hosts always have different perspectives on things that make for great conversation. As someone who is relatively new to D&D and DMing, this is a fantastic podcast.

    lit pod boiz 10/10 could use some more David bashing but other than that super useful and entertaining for me, a newish player who jumped into DMing without thinking about the consequences.

    Waaaaah
    Waluigi and Waaaah by William Shakespeare Enter Waluigi Waaaah appears above at a window Waluigi: But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks? It is the Waaaah, and Waaaah is the Waah. Arise, Waaaaaah Waah, and Waaaaaaah the Waaah Wah. See, how they lean their Waaah upon their Waaaaaaaaah! O, that I were a glove upon that Waaaaaaaaah, That I might touch that Waaah! Waaaah: O Waluigi, Waluigi! wherefore art thou Waluigi? What's in a name? That which we call a Waaaah By any other name would smell as Waaah. Dost thou love me? I know thou wilt say "Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah" And I will take thy word; yet if thou swear'st, Thou mayst prove Waaaaaah. Waluigi: Noble, by yonder Waaah Wah I swear That tips Waaaaaaaah the Waah Waaaaaaaaah-- Waaaah: O, swear not by the Wah, the Waaah Wah, That Waaaaaah changes in its Waaaaaaaaah orb, Lest that thy love prove likewise Waaaaaaaaah. Sweet, Waaaaah night! A thousand times Waaaaah night! Parting is such Waaah sorrow, That I shall say Waaaaah night till it be morrow. Exit above Waluigi: Sleep dwell upon thy Waaah, peace in thy Waaaaaaaaah! Would I were sleep and peace, so Waaaah to rest! Wah will I to my Waaaaaah Waaaah's cell, Its help to Waaaaaaah, and my Waaah Waaaah to tell. 10/10 podcast would subscroob again

    One of the best D&D resources
    This podcast is excellent for so many reasons, but my favorite of them is that you get to hear discussions on d&d as a game, the classes, mechanics, etc. from 3 hosts with very different philosophies about how to play the game. It makes for an engaging listen and makes you ask yourself what you really think about D&D, challenging your perspective. Also Jake is daddy #CAC
  • DM_Boognish
    Enjoyable and informative
    Good sound quality and a loose with these fine peeps! You get the general topic points that most D&D podcasts like this one cover, which is great bc you get a different perspective on the material. Excited to see what topics get addressed going forward.
  • Bot_Jake
    Fun and Insightful
    Jake, Will, and David each bring their own perspectives into the conversation, making for interesting insights all around. Their personalities make you feel like you’re at the table, and this allows for even further enjoyment. As someone who hardly ever DMs, this has given me great ideas and knowledge on how to better improve when I do decide to DM. It’s even given me some new ideas as a PC too! Awesome podcast, funny, and always a great listen, can’t get enough!
  • MichaelStag
    Love this pod
    Feels like I’m hanging out with three of my buddies and learning a TON about D&D at the same time. If you’ve played for 5 weeks or 5 years, this is a great way to get tips and tricks to improve your game.
  • Ando 359
    Awesome as heck
    Such good and useful info. These guys have such a good chemistry, the podcast is so entertaining even if I wasn't into d and d I could listen to them.
  • thevocabulator
    Surprisingly Accessible
    Having only played D&D a couple times, I figured I wouldn’t understand the topics of this podcast at all. I was pleasantly surprised, finding the hosts to be informative, interesting, and a lot of fun. Looking forward to learning more!
  • ooly12
    I love it!
    Can’t wait to hear more!
  • Gonezalo
    It's a yes from me
    Had a great time listening to this podcast! A great cast of dungeon masters who offer humorous yet intelligent discussion with many interesting points of view. Easy to listen to, thought provoking, witty, and all around excellent, I'm definitely excited for more!
  • MarcoC29
    Amazing help for DMs everywhere!
    Vox Arcana provides amazing insights into running tabletop RPGs and gives specific examples for ways to improve your games!
  • And also Thomas
    Off to a solid start
    Thoroughly enjoyable discussion and also pretty accessible for those who haven’t played.
  • Butterlover
    My favorite podcast
    I love this podcast. It’s amazing for newer players but also goes in depth enough to give veterans and dungeon masters stuff to think about. I love it! <3
  • Meg Hollar
    A must-sub podcast!
    This podcast is awesome! I was laughing literally in the first minute. Not to mention the sound quality is excellent, which is hard to find. And to top it off, the intro music reminds me of Stranger Things - an automatic win in my book. Definitely a must-subscribe!
  • Trickshot865
    Fantastic!
    This podcast is phenomenal, it has great information from the perspective of 3 different dm’s to provide valid information and different opinions to go off of when dming yourself. Highly recommend a listen!
  • 5 star 101 guy
    FINALLY!!
    Great to FINALLY find a good DND podcast! Keep it up!
  • TompkaTruck
    Clear and concise!
    As a person who is beginning to dive more and more into the world of DnD, it is fantastic to get into the minds of DMs and how they think and build their Adventures. At times I feel DMs do not get credit for the amount of work and creativity they put into their creation, so it was nice to see their perspective on the game as a whole and more specifically on Dungeons. And for a player who is trying to branch out to the DM side of the table, this is a great resource that can help with ideas or strategies that otherwise may be passed over or misused. Needless to say I am extremely excited for what is in store for the future of Vox Arcana! Great work!

    Do one on memes
    I think the title says enough, I was sitting here thinking, “hey! Has there ever been a dnd podcast about memes?” And I do t think there is, that’s a pretty big audience just waiting to be exploited.
  • Mr__Twitchy
    First podcast out the gate, and it's a runaway!
    I never grew up playing D&D, but listening to the intelligence and wit Vox Arcana brings inspires me to care more about this game and actually pick it up more. First podcast they've done and I'm intrigued. Can't wait for more, and can't wait to play more! GREAT Work!
  • EQ-7
    It’s So Great!
    I’m don’t have too much experience playing DND but listening to this was easy and very relatable to what I knew. Eager to learn about a different perspective when it comes to the game itself!
  • makenziewithak
    Nerdy, Relevant, Hilarious
    These guys are hysterical AND witty! Their brains work in ways mine does not. They elaborate on topics I didn't even know was possible and they're so funny! The way they think about DnD is so different than most - listen listen listen!
  • Errrina
    Very Likeable

    Very engrossing, and a high quality podcast to choose! Great info on DnD!
  • William157
    Thoughtful and Surprising
    I listen to a lot of D&D podcasts, and this one is different. Great sound quality, charismatic hosts, and a shorter runtime. Great, focus topics and hosts who clearly listen to and respect each other. Subscribed!
