Every day if I don’t listen to the adventure zone, it is not a day worth living. But on a more serious note, this is my all time favorite podcast. If anyone ever needs a podcast suggestion, it’s this one. The family is so unique, fun, and will make you genuinely laugh and cry at the same time. Every night before bed, if I’m doing chores, or driving, this is always my first choice to put on. Each season is amazing whether they are playing d&d or other game systems. If you’ve been thinking about listening to the adventure zone… DO IT!

This is hands down the most entertaining dnd/rpg podcast. Highly recommend, start today, do yourself this favor, you’ve earned it.

Started listening after I was a fan of MBMBaM. I just went back and relistened to Balance, and then listened to Amnesty and Graduation for the first time. It’s so amazing to me how the boys can be so creative in so many different ways. Absolutely love this podcast!

The first season ‘Balance’ was great. What I’ve noticed over the last several seasons is a trend that there is not a full story. It feels like the brothers play with an idea, background story, new system play for severe months and then rush to the end of the story. It makes the overall plot feel disjointed and disappointing despite the fun interplay. I would like for there to be a coherent beginning middle and end to the seasons.

I just finished listening to Amnesty (again) and no matter how many times I listen to the finale, those last 10 minutes always makes me cry. The story telling for all campaigns are amazing, plenty of voiced characters (sometimes too many..lol) and an abundance of family interactions all make this podcast the best. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, for all that you do.

I’ve listened to Balance 3 times. And their other campaigns are incredible, too. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves dungeons and dragons or those looking to get into it!

I was in the middle of the day I had a lot more fun than my other one but it wasn’t really a lot to me but it wasn’t a lot to me but it

Listening back through and realizing each time how much I enjoy their content! In the middle of Graduation now and forgot how good it was!

The storyline is nearly impossible to follow. I have had no idea what’s going on for months. It’s a GM problem. If you’re a new listener, try out the seasons where Griffin is GM, not Justin. In regards to their other seasons and live shows, guests they invite are annoying; thus, Dust is hard to listen to, despite being a world & characters with potential (sans the guest).

I just want to say this podcast is one of the funniest podcasts I have seen for a while. Their beloved antics, the campaign, and the mockery… oh the Jenkins and the candy station scene had me dying. The boys practically have vicious mockery as a bonus action. Amazing podcast- and thank you for reading. Btw sharing the podcast is cool.

Grad is and always will be my favorite season listen to grad, balance, and amnesty for sure but idk about ethersea I don’t like steeplechase it’s I don’t like tik tok and it feels like Justin is pandering to the way he sees gen z so overall first 3 seasons are awesome but season 4 and beyond are suffering because of them going weekly they did great when going biweekly please go back to a biweekly show thank you ok peace oh yeah ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 stars

Balance: Loved it. Amnesty: Good but flawed. Commitment: Fine but didn’t have time to pick up. Dust: Barely remember this one. Graduation: I fell off the wagon at this season because I hated it.

I enjoy, but I want Upsy to appear more in the episodes

quite literally my favorite piece of media of all time i mean every episode every campaign straight up if you're reading this and deciding whether to listen or not, please just do yourself a favorite and go do it you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll not want to think about anything else ever

I LOVE this show. My dad introduced this as way to get ideas for campaign. Me my brother and my dad play together which is probably more pathetic then 4 people playing. It’s so pathetic that the dm has to play too. But I love this show. I just started listening and I’m excited to continue.

I will never get tired of this podcast, it’s stories, and the genuine laughter and tears I’ve experienced while listening to TAZ.

I am not a podcast person. Up until last month, my podcast intake was limited to what I happened upon on NPR. Adventure Zone was recommended to me by a friend because I showed interest in DnD, and I am addicted. I started on episode one and now I’m on episode 41 after listening every chance I get. The McElroys roll a critical hit tickling my funny bone.

I have listened to all of Balance, Amnesty, and Graduation and this stuff is fantastic. Grad is probably my favorite but I just love how these idiots can do roleplaying as if they aren’t idiots. It’s amazing. Also the Steeplechase intro music is such a bop along with the wonderland theme in balance. Such lovable characters I stg this is some kind of witchcraft because when I first heard the McElroys were playing dnd, I thought those goofballs could never pull it off. However, they did and in the best way possible.

Three horny boys and and their hornier dad, with a penchant for casual cursing and no shortage of social anxiety, play TTRPGs and sometimes it’s funny but most of the time it’s hilarious. While the quality of seasons will fluctuate, the characters are always carefully made and played sincerely.

I credit the balance arch as what got me through 2020. Genuinely the best podcast ever.

The phantom sea coast co got me chuckling started listening late last year and it has supplied all my podcasts needs

Amnesty and Balance are my favorite. But that sure doesn’t mean I like the other ones!! (I’m probably the only listener under 20.) Funny stuff!

you know like in general

This Roll for Sandwich knock off is funny, I just wish I could figure out what food they’re trying to make

This new season is so good thank you Justin I love theme parks and I love these boys

A quiet plea to turn down the background noise in Steeplechase. I love this story, but my adhd is absolutely wrenched by the distracting little songs that signal certain locations? I can’t focus them out. Just me? Probably

If I had a dollar every time I laughed at this podcast I’d be very wealthy. Must I say more?

Great podcast. Balance will always be the best. I’m midway through Ethersea. Not my favorite just because of Travis’ character. Bad vibes all around. I hear enough of personal problems in real life, I don’t want to hear it when I just want to laugh. Please bring back the levity and lightheartedness of Balance. This is my favorite dnd podcast and I really don’t want to find a new one. :(

I can't even count how many times I've relistened to this entire show. I've consumed so much McElroy media it's insane. I cannot fathom why anyone wouldn't like this show or any of their content. Please please please listen to this amazing podcast!! ❤️❤️❤️

Hello all, Balance is amazing and the storytelling there keeps me coming back. Also, the Sherlock Holmes mini-experience was ridiculous. You will want to hear about A certain spectral horse too. The new stuff is also very good. You should listen to these now.

I started this podcast to stay connected with my son after he moved out. He introduced me to MBMBAM, the McElroys were so funny! Then one day he mentioned the Adventure Zone, he is on the current campaign and I am on the Suffering Game. We laugh over funny scenes, and quotes all the time. He talks to me about ideas for his cosplay of Taako for a Con, and a lot of times we start talking about deeper feelings. Thanks boys and Clint for helping my son and I connect as adults, and be friends!!❤️

Been a huge fan since the first season. There’s something for everyone here, be it genre, system, or story! Even when a new season doesn’t hit with me right away, I always love it once I’m in the right zone (ha!).

I used to love this podcast, but it seems the brothers are trying to drive listeners away. High pitch carnival music playing in the background. "Steeple Chase" is another "Hey, let's not play D&D, instead lets play another D6 only game."

love this new season!! This has been a reliably wonderful show I’ve returned to for 5 years. Thanks for the adventures, zone!!

These guys make me laugh and smile whenever I listen! Keep on keeping on!

1000/10!!! So many good episodes and characters! I’m currently working through Graduation while being stuck in an airport and this podcast really helps pass the time!

My first real exposure to D&D and play podcasting, and my favorite thing to wake up to on a Thursday morning (I still love you Crit Role). These boys bring me joy.

I just love this podcast. I am a Greek mythology nerd so it is interesting that they called that Grand relic the Gaia sash.

I just love it so I listen to it in the car

an amazing experience for anyone and everyone.

Balance is my favorite arc but Steeple Chase had quickly become my second favorite because of the successful themes/bits. Always a solid time!

All the laughs, with tears sprinkled in. My favorite podcasting family. 🥰

I love tacos but I’m gonna go get a bite to eat before work and I need a shower so I’ll call me later love mom and I hope you’re doing well and you and the family and the family I hope you’re staying healthy love mom love mom love you bye see you later

This is exactly what you want out of an actual play podcast. Goofs, laughs, earned poignant moments. There are several arcs/campaigns and the characters in all of them are a ton of fun. They have a fun, easygoing dynamic and don't get too bogged down in the rules of the games they play most of the time.

This is the best podcast I’ve ever listened to in my life. You must listen to this podcast

Steeplechase is quickly becoming one of my favorite campaigns due to the fantastic worldbuilding, I’m interested in seeing where this arc will go. Also, I’M SHROOG

Good stuff

I left a really long and crazy review one time but let me shorten this up. Adventure zone is awesome 10/10 Would listen to all of it again Highly recommend 👍

This is a fun show!
