As always, the podcasts are divided into two categories: ACTUAL PLAY and TALK. Actual Play podcasts are podcasts where the podcasters play an actual tabletop RPG for your listening enjoyment. Talk podcasts include interviews, reviews, discussion, opinion, advice and news.

Hall of Fame
Last year's winners were Tablestory (Actual Play) and The Grognard Files (Talk). These two podcasts joined The Adventure Zone, and The Good Friends of Jackson Elias in the Hall of Fame, and are not eligible to enter this year.

How it works
This is the nomination thread. In this thread, anybody can nominate their favourite tabletop RPG podcast in each of two categories (Actual Play, and Talk).

Once the nominations close, they will be compiled and the full (valid) list presented in a poll for public voting.

The Top 10 in each category will be announced first on Morrus' Unofficial Tabletop RPG Talk, and then later posted here to the website.

Rules for valid nominations:
  • podcasts, not videos
  • must have released at least 3 new episodes in 2020
  • the main focus must be tabletop RPGs
  • must not be your own podcast
  • must include a link to the podcast’s web page
  • if a group puts out multiple podcasts, they are combined into one nomination
  • say why
  • podcasts in the Hall of Fame are no longer eligible
  • one nomination per category per person only

Nominations open for two weeks, until Sunday 29th November. The poll will come shortly thereafter. The results will fittingly initially be announced in our podcast and posted here as an article later.

Nominate your favourite by posting in the replies. You only get to nominate one in each category (Talk, Actual Play). Make sure to check the rules above or your nomination may not valid.

Podcast: DM's Treehouse (twitter) (spotify) (patreon)

Why: This podcast explores multiple stories, through multiple TTRPGs (two of those ttrpgs being made by the hosts of the podcast) Each host takes turns GMing each other in their own unique world that they create. You know that feeling when your GM whisks you away in their beautiful narrative? Now imagine how emotion driven and captivating a story is when all of the players are as invested in weaving and creating fantastic stories as their GM. Not to mention how despite how emotional their stories are, their humor and jokes really pick you back up.

They have a teenage superhero story played in the Mask system. Also your good old fashion DnD 5e set in a world where the gods left. A gritty Pokemon universe where humans and trainers don't exist, set in their own system called Pokeplay, and a wild west story that will tug your heart strings, in a system still in the works. if any of these stories intrigue you I would highly suggest giving a listen. And if you are looking for a podcast with quality editing. This is one other reason out of many to check it out. They also strive to support artists and musicians. A podcast that always strives to be better and better and succeeds every time.

TL;DR : A Highly Edited podcast that gives you four different TTRPG systems, four unique stories that no matter what will grab your attention, Hard hitting stories that are a stark and enjoyable contrast to their goofs. and Four fantastic hosts that support their community and always aim higher.

Podcast: 3 Wise DMs (3WiseDMs.com)

Why: It's nothing fancy. Just three old-school DMs reminiscing about the joys of old editions of D&D but also embracing new editions and VTTs. No edition warring. And it gives some nice insights into GMing.
 

Category: Play
Show: Dice Shame
Site: DICE SHAME
Why: Dice Shame is an awesome D&D 5E actual-play of WotC's Storm King's Thunder campaign. They have great player chemistry, incredible story-telling and character-focused development, great production value, and they always make me smile. As a bonus, the people behind the podcast are truly wonderful, too.
