In the gaming community it’s easy to be blinded by the glitter of YouTube and forget that there’s an wealth of top-quality podcasts out there vying for your attention.
Wizards of the Coast have certainly kept their D&D toe in the podcast pond in the past few years, with Dragon Talk and Dungeon Delve.
In 2017 WOTC also used podcasts to promote sourcebook Tomb of Annihilation. But they didn’t stop there, and around the release date teamed up with various D&D liveplay podcast producers to create episodes using its content.
Come 2018 and WOTC are up to their old tricks again with the imminent arrival of Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes, based on the writings of the renowned wizard from the world of Greyhawk.
However, this time their podcast collaborators will be featuring content from the new sourcebook a full 11 days before the official release on 18th May.
So if you fancy wallowing in the new material for almost a fortnight whilst the money for the new book burns a hole in your pocket, you should get on over to The Podcast of Foes for more info.
In the meantime, here’s the May schedule:
- Mon, May 7: Venture Maidens and Sneak Attack!
- Tue, May 8: Dungeon Drunks, Lawful & Orderly
- Wed, May 9: Roll Like a Girl, Drunks and Dragons
- Thu, May 10: Redemption, Heroes Not Included
- Fri, May 11: d20 Dames, RPG Academy
- Mon, May 14: Taking Initiative, DnD RAW
- Tue, May 15: Tabletop Potluck, You Meet in a Tavern
- Wed, May 16: Shadow of the Cabal, Dungeons, Dice & Everything Nice
- Thu, May 17: D&D is for Nerds, The Broadswords
- Fri, May 18: Dice for Brains, Nerd Poker, The Dice Unkind
If Twitch is more your cup of tea then don’t despair, as ITU Trash Crew and Return to Greyhawk will also be getting in on the action, albeit two days after official release, on 20th.
