Synopsis
We record ourselves playing role-playing games. I know, right! We once were another podcast entitled Softly Speaking Sanskrit, but that all changed when we accidentally summoned the Lich. This Lich now controls our lives and we must play our games for his amusement. If we preform unsatisfactorily we could end up enslaved within his phylactery. Man, it sucks. Anyway, our podcast tends to focus on the drama and character behind the dice rolls, rather than the systems and stats. Literary and psychological themes run deep in our campaigns and characters. There are also tons of Back to the Future references and penis jokes. And don't fret, some of the players are super-nerds and take extra time to maximize powers and stats. So we will be posting character sheets for those interested.

The Chamber Vol. 1
12/10/2016 Duration: 01h26minAn oldie but a goodie. For the spookiest month next to March, we're bringing back one of our favorite Softly Speaking Sanskrit campaigns - The Chamber. Brian, our DM for the series became obsessed with a Clickhole.com quick entitled "How long can you survive The Chamber?" to the point of insanity. From this obsession came this dark and humorous tale of survival. Enjoy P.s. If for some reason you skip the intro, there are some loud screams, which we have tried to lower the audio for, but still make shock you. So don't listen at max volume with your headphones!
