Discussion about this podcast

Critical Hit Parader's Appendix LP Podcast

This podcast is focused on the intersection of music and tabletop roleplaying games. Where Gary Gygax's Appendix N listed the fantasy and sci-fi authors who most influenced him and the development of Dungeons and Dragons, the idea of Appendix LP is to explore the bands and songs that influence and enhance tabletop roleplaying. The podcast features game designers talking about the music that has inspired their games and writing, along with deep dives into classic Appendix LP artists.

The Appendix LP Podcast is presented by Critical Hit Parader - America's Only Rock 'n Role Playing Magazine. Subscribe for free at https://criticalhitparader.substack.com.
