by Spout Lore Studios
Spout Lore is a hilarious Actual Play podcast using the Dungeon World game system, brought to life by four award-winning comedians in Canada. If you're looking for a collaborative storytelling experience that balances high fantasy with side-splitting improv comedy, you’ve found it. Join three "mighty" "heroes" (Tuk the Barbarian, Vyng the half-elf Druid, and Fat Billie the nine-year-old Halfling Thief) as they bumble through a post-magic world. This is a rules-light, character-driven journey where the setting is made up on the fly; evolving from ancient hotdog-based festivals to mythic beasts of terrible power. Whether you’re a TTRPG veteran or a fan of D&D comedy podcasts like The Adventure Zone, NADDPOD, or Dimension 20, you’ll feel right at home at our table. Spout Lore is improvised narrative at its best: made FOR best friends, BY best friends!

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.
Spout Lore should be in conversation with the top actual play shows out there. Genuinely some of the best world building, arcs, role play, and creativity out there.
It took me a while to get into Spout Lore but it has become my most enjoyed podcasts. It certainly won’t be for everyone, especially if you are a rules lawyer type, but I feel that the players and GM demonstrate the tenants of Dungeon World very well. The play is imaginative, fun and unpredictable. All the participants do a nice job of embracing the “yes, and...” play style. The show is well produced and is higher quality than several more popular shows. It takes 3-4 episodes to really get going, but if someone is looking for a solid live play podcast or just a fun storytelling experience, I would encourage them to give Spout Lore a try.
I’ve listened all the way through this show twice. It’s wholesome, dirty, funny, the world building is insane, and the music…everyone works together so well. Check it out if you love D&D or other RPGs.
I’ve listened to Spout Lore since nearly the beginning and it’s my most beloved podcast. The mix of stupid humor with truly creative world building and moments of emotional weight ticks all the boxes for me. Shawn, Jessica, Paul & Abdul have such fun banter and support each other’s ideas so well. This game has made me laugh & cry, and brought me so many hours of comfort and entertainment as I work. Their recent performance expansion to video content is also great because they’re all adorable to look at. I’m currently on a re-listen between new episodes; I think season 4 is where things really get into a groove.
