About Us

Join the Party is an actual play podcast with tangible worlds, genre-pushing storytelling, and collaborators who make each other laugh each week. We welcome everyone to the table, from longtime players to folks who’ve never touched a roleplaying game before. Hop into our current campaign: the drama and excitement of a superhero high school! Or marathon our completed stories: Campaign 3 for a pirate story set in a world of plant- and bug-folk, the Camp-Paign for a MOTW game set in a weird summer camp, Campaign 2 for a modern superhero game, and Campaign 1 for a high fantasy story. And once a month we release the Afterparty, where we answer your questions about the show and how we play the game. New episodes every Tuesday.

TIC TIC TIC TIC! It’s nearly midterm time and that means putting all of the eggs in the skeletal basket of Coach Bonemin. Will our super seniors get on top of The Most Important Test of High School or try not to think about it and blow off some steam?

SPAAAANG! Maybe running an errand for Principal Wordsmith wasn’t so easy after all. Now Connor and Craft have to climb the Ad-Mage-Istrator’s Tower while Rowan keeps the box safe. Also… I have a weird question… what’s in the box???
