I am starting to listen because I want a nice gentle play-through of home-brew that is playful and creative and the cast and DM all deliver that! I also like the simplified rules and breaking down what somethings mean so my kids can start to catch on!

Not sure -what- is the deal with the volume editing, but when the dames get into fits of laughter, the volume issue makes the whole experience extremely unpleasant. Otherwise fun and cute story that my kids enjoy

This podcast has a lot of humor and you can feel the fun that everyone is having. Don’t skip the downtime episodes. They add depth to the story and make me really care about the characters and the NPCs.

I’ve recently gotten into DnD, and because I’m the most willing of my entire party, I get to DM immediately. I was fine with that but a little nervous, and listening to this podcast (my first time listening to anything DnD) really helped calm my nerves. Incase you guys read this, thanks! :D

I started listening to D20 Dames and I have completely binged all of the seasons. The show is creative, inspiring, and always brightens my day when there's a new episode. I can't wait for the future episodes! 💛

Love this podcast. So fun!

Wonderfully written, excellent players. Wait, was that too wordy? CyberEdge 7

So I just started listening to the podcast late December and I have binged pretty much all of it lol I thought to listen to just 3 episodes and see how it went and before I knew it I was at the end and sad lol It’s simply a great podcast. It’s cute, funny and some moments that you are just like “wait what?”. I love all of the characters (I usually just like one but I can’t pick) and the DM is just as amazing and lovable.

I am way late to the game, but I just started at the beginning and I am HOOKED. The Dames are hilarious and heartfelt. I got into live play pods through The Adventure Zone and this is quickly becoming my new feminist feel good pod to distract from the crazy!

Just started listening a little while ago it’s fantastic

One of the best D&D podcasts ever!

I love listening to the Dames play D&D! The storytelling is wonderful and the characters are entertaining. I highly recommend listening in on the fun!

This podcast is amazing I have been caching up for a wile now and I just can’t stop I will be so sad wen I catch up because the I will have to wait for the next episode also I am vary picky about my D&D podcasts and yours is great

So much fun to listen to on the road! You guys make driving for a living sooooo much easier. Thanks so much for all the effort you put in, it’s very much noticed and appreciated ❤️

This is one of those rare podcasts that the whole family can listen to AND the narrative is compelling. As a DM I have run several of Kat’s stories and like them, this is a series of well thought out narratives based around complex characters who are portrayed endearingly by a very talented cast, and all brought together by a producer go goes above and beyond. This is the story you are looking for.

You must listen to this podcast! The season 2 finale is absolutely amazing!!!!

This podcast is so many things I love about DnD. All of the players have great energy together, and play their characters very well. They manage to create interesting conflict without depicting a horrible world, and the overall vibe is very kind and hopeful. Also they’re hilarious! I highly recommend giving it a listen.

This campaign is so well designed and run, and it feels like a real world. I've never played D&D or any other RPG, and I was instantly hooked and able to understand what was happening.

Discovered the Dames through Venture Maidens and just love these gals and their creativity

I’m loving this adventure! The group is really good at engaging with the setting and NPCs as more than just obstacles, and the DM is clearly thinking about what it would be like to live in a world where “adventurer” is a common job. They make the world feel real and give new depth to familiar parts of the Forgotten Realms.

I’m only on episode 2 and I love the story! The characters are well thought out and the action in this podcast happens with purpose. There isn’t a lot of extra chatter like some podcasts I’ve listened too. I will definitely be looking forward to listening to this on my road trips!

I LOVE this podcast. I'm not really one for podcasts but kept hearing about this group and I finally invested some time and I was hooked and ended up binging both the first and second season. This show is an absolute delight. I cannot wait for the third season to start.

Need a D&D live play podcast full of adventure & fun? The d20 Dames bring it! These five energetic ladies give listeners a delightful story, emphasizing role play and collaboration over combat and mayhem. They fight when necessary, but the Dames talk through many confrontations with wit and charm...and the occasional hilarious stumble. They even manage sometimes to make friends with NPCs who might have been enemies, with unexpected results. While not heavy on combat, there's plenty to keep your interest--in fact, I find their downtime episodes to be as riveting as the rest. Learning about the PC's backstories and personal quests helps make the characters come more fully to life. I had the honor to meet DM Kat Kruger (one of my favorite DMs!) and Jen Vaughn (who plays the charmingly awkward Riot) recently, and can attest to them being as kind and engaging in person as they are on the podcast. Give the d20 Dames a listen--you'll be glad you did!

I love how kind and caring the Dames are. It's a great approach to D&D. All the characters are interesting and vibrant, even the NPC's. Kat builds a beauitful world with the Dames and the guest stars are a delight as well.

I love d20 Dames! They’re one of the first dnd podcasts I listened to. I love the stories and adventures they go on and honestly they have affected greatly how this murder hobo tries to approach gaming. I’m playing my first character that tries to ask questions first and attack later and it’s a lot harder than the dames make it look! I’m so excited to see (hear?) the adventures that the Dames have yet to experience!

I love this group and this podcast.

One of my favs!!

One of my favorite liveplay podcasts. Full of great characters and fully-realized characters. The players excel at unorthodox reactions to the encounters and "monsters" they meet. My favorite character is the curde but quick-witted ranger Riot.

I love their podcasts and interesting fun and not one video have I have heard a pun in every downtime 😂 It is so interesting it got me into d&d it is the only clean podcast I could find and this podcast is the best.

I found the ladies when they were mentioned in a D&D video I was watching and I was intrigued. I quickly googled them, read up on them and watched a vid on YouTube and I was hooked. I quickly went and subscribed to the podcast. I love their humor and how easy they make the game look. Gamer girl goals!!!

I like to listen to podcasts pretty much all the time and I love a good story from funny people with soothing voices so this one is pretty perfect for a bad day or a good day or even a day that’s just a day. In one of the early episodes they discuss favorite snacks and when I heard one of the Dames likes Haw Flakes (my sister says they don’t taste as good as they used to but I think she’s just mistaken) I knew I was in good hands. This isn’t a review for Haw Flakes but if you want to try those while you listen to the show I support you. Just be careful you don’t eat on a laugh line.

This is an incredible example of women excelling at role playing games! The cast is hilarious, the stories are great, and it’s really just wholesome fun. When I listen, I always feel like I’m curled up in an armchair with a cup of tea, but also fighting baddies!

I came across this podcast through the Uncaged Anthology NTG Gaming Live Play and I just adore them! Their approach to storytelling and gaming is something I try now to bring to my own home games, and their adventures always help make the work day a bit more exciting!

In top 3 of my favorite rpg podcasts! Great work ladies!!!

reminds me of the public radio women from SNL I mean that in the best possible way

D20 Dames is a barrel full of well-produced and thoughtful fun. Also family friendly, so can and should be shared with everyone! Thank you dames for the passion and energy you bring to the TTRPG community :)

I’ve become hooked on the D20 Dames. I play D&D as a kid, really in it just for the dungeon crawl aspect. As an adult I have come to appreciate the story telling aspect of D&D but didn’t have a group to explore and hone that aspect of the game. The D20 Dames storytelling is engaging and very enjoyable. After each episode I can’t wait for the next installment to find out what happens next. As a player and as a DM, there is much that I have learned and really enjoy. I can’t recommend listening to the D20 Dames enough.

I've been listening to D20 Dames for the last year and it's one of my favorite D&D/storytelling podcasts. The players bring their characters to life and Kat is such a great DM. It's a great podcast to introduce to new D&D players, especially the little ones. Props to a year, and here's to many more.

I started listening to live play game because of all the amazing fan art I was seeing for Critical Roll. Now I still watch / listen to it but o gave found gaming groups who’s style and storytelling clicks better wit my tastes. The women behind the d20 Dames tell a great story and so obviously love what they are doing. It’s one of the few streams that is truly all ages friendly. Their show brings my so much joy. They are one of the reasons I’m, after decades away from TTRPG’s, getting back into the hobby. Thanks for the lovely, fun, show

Such a wonderful podcast!! Jen is an amazing DM, and all the characters are so funny and love-able. It’s super great listening to a DnD podcast that focuses on friendships, characters interests, and community instead of dungeon battles all the time. The arc with Sildar had me laughing out loud, Riots budding romance had me blushing, and Rose is just so cute! Plus all the other NPCs are just great.

The structure is Awesome and the Dungeon Master is So accurate, But in the beginning they said that it was supposed to be a kid friendly podcast but towards the 2nd season, there was some cursing

This is the only dnd podcast I listen to now!

D20 Dames has been my go to podcast on regular long car rides as of late. All the episodes, both adventures and interludes are engaging and funny. I look forward to see where things keep going with the Dames!

What a phenomenal actual-play D&D podcast. Every episode is fun, whether adventuring or “down time.” Give it a listen and catch up today! And my title might be a little bit of hyperbole. But I’d certainly fail one of my death savings throws for them.

The story telling and creative character development in this D&D podcast are amazing but what really sets it apart for me is the cast. I love that when I listen I feel like I’m part of the party, joining in on inside jokes and getting caught up in the type of giggle fits that you have to catch your breath after. The world building is beautiful, the characters are glorious creations and I can’t wait to see what shenanigans happen next. I rolled to fall in love and definitely did.

I got hooked on actual play podcasts thru TAZ & have been listening to a few different ones. d20 Dames is shaping up to be one of the best. The characters' interactions are fantastic (more Riot/Lyta please!) and now that they're playing original adventures, the way they solve problems and find their way through situations is such fun.

I stumbled across d20 Dames after hearing the DM, Kat Kruger, playing The Countess in Adventure They Wrote. I was soon hooked by the fun adventures of the dames. With each episode, the characters get more flushed out and DM has some amazing NPC/PCs with varied voices and personalities. Not only do the characters play well together (i.e. their skills complement each other), but the cast members also have friendly banter. I find myself consistening laughing out loud at the shenanigans they get into. I highly encourage folks to start listening to d20 Dames - it won't take long for you to catch up.

I've been sifting through this awesome new genre of RPG real plays with a focus on women and have been finding a lot of good stuff but this podcast has been my favorite sofar! The players seem to have a decent idea who their characters are right off the bat, the adventures aren't your boilerplate affair(after the intro), downtime is a focus AND the DM is writing her own content for other people to use! I can't wait to see where it goes from here.

Great podcast with a hilarious cast. Also great that so many of the adventures they play come out as modules you can get!

This podcast manages to be one of the most humane podcasts I listen to, while still being really funny. The characters have made the world they live in a better place, and are genuinely happy about it! Which is not to say there's no combat, conflict, or magic -- there's plenty of all of that, both within the party and without. I always am excited when I see a new episode in my podcatcher! On another note, Sildar is one of the great NPCs of all time.
