What is Tavern Tales?
Tavern Tales is a live-play Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition podcast that began in 2017. What started as a group of friends rolling dice around a table has grown into a full network of campaigns, spin-offs, and story arcs spanning years of adventure.
The main Tavern Tales feed is home to the flagship campaigns — each one a self-contained story with its own cast of characters, setting, and tone. From high fantasy heroics to darkly comic misadventures, no two campaigns are quite the same.
New to the show? Start at the beginning of any campaign and let the story pull you in. Veteran listener? You already know where to find your seat.
