History Podcast / DrunksAndDragons

* Adorkable: Toby, as a cheerful naive gnome "boy" (he's actually around 40 - nearly a man in gnome years) with a passion for pranks. Also Jaela in her more innocent, pre-timeskip moments, such as her early awkward attempts at flirting with Aludra.

* ForeignCultureFetish: Steven Strom likes to talk about anime, JRPGs, regularly uses Japanese suffixes and named his chraracter Junpei Iori from Persona 3. The others waver between joining him and making fun of him.

* AntiClimaxBoss: Josail Longshadow was responsible for capturing Pelor and Torog, two ''gods''. She is a legitimate threat with powerful skills and legendary actions. Unfortunately for her, an amazing roll from [[BornUnlucky Jennifer]] and a follow-up from Nika resulted in her taking around ''150'' damage in the first round, before she even took a turn, much to [[GameMaster Michael's]] chagrin, and she was swiftly dispatched shortly after.
--> '''Toby:''' Told you to give up!

* PortmanteauCoupleName: Jaeludra - Jaela (played by Nika Howard) and Aludra (played by Jennifer Cheek)
* PromotedFanboy: Or rather promoted fangirl. There is much squeeing in the story Nika Howard tells about when DM Thrifty called to ask if she wanted to be in a one-off episode of Drunks & Dragons. Later still she becomes a much beloved regular.

* WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer: It's fun to listen to the cast try to force skill challenges in their favor, e.g. bluffing traps or trying to intimidate inanimate objects.
* WriteWhatYouKnow: One of the players makes fun of the DM for having dragon heavy plotlines after he received a dragon supplement.

Ostensibly a 5th edition Dungeons and Dragons real play podcast, this podcast follows a semi-stable group of four adventurers as they wake up on slabs without their memories, start and end a demon apocalypse, rediscover their pasts and get into all kinds of hijinks. Originally 4E but they converted around episode 125ish.

* ChestBurster: [[spoiler:Happens to Aludra and Thom after sladdi infect them with parasites.]]

* ForeignCultureFetish: Steven Strom likes to talk about animes, jrpgs, regularly uses japanese suffixes and named his chraracter Junpei Iori from Persona 3. The others waver between joining him and making fun of him.

* LongRunners: Started in 2012, currently working on season 9, 200+ episodes... Pretty good for a real play D&D podcast started by a group of people who had no idea what they were doing in their first episode. "Go ahead. Go. Make Dungeons and Dragons happen, you guys." -DM Thrifty

** Episode 79 [[spoiler: sees Aludra and Thom betrayed by Fennekin, and Harper literally stabbed in the back by Roz.]]

* FetishFuel: Much of the early episodes are spent trying to find out what precisely gets Thom the Dragonborn off. There is a long list of individual enemies until they eventually realize its simple battle horniness. See entry for CombatSadomasochist

* OneSteveLimit: Thom and Tum are close enough that there is often confusion over who is doing what or what damage is being done to whom. Steven Strom lampshades this at one point by pointing out that there are two Michaels on the podcast, though one goes by Mike and the other is often referred to by his twitter handle 'Thrifty' or 'ThriftyNerd.'

* PromotedFanboy: Or rather promoted fangirl. There is much squeeing in the story Nika Howard tells about when DM Thrifty called to ask if she wanted to be in an episode of Drunks & Dragons. Later still she becomes a much beloved regular.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: When Steven Strom couldn't make podcasts DM Thrifty would find an in-game reason for why he wasn't around - e.g. struck with a petrifying beam and stuck in a shed, kidnapped by fellow githyanki and taken to the astral plane, etc.
