Kat and Nadia know and love rpgs as much as anyone I've ever listened to, and have learned to turn these qualities into an incredible podcast. They play off each other really well and cover different sides of the genre, with Kat being more systems and PC gaming oriented where Nadia is into these games for the stories and cares most about console games. If you want to stay up to date with what's new in the genre while learning more about its history this is place to be!
