it's not a performance

it is a sort of play written by a games master but the people who are entertaining you are experiencing the same play as you are. in a sense the entertainment value of this kind of podcast isn't a performance but a kind of role playing game but also a movie. it is genuinely entertaining and the people are quite genuine.

Just delightful

Just nice people having a good time. Some podcasts seem forced, overly excited, etc. This one is not like that, it's just nice people being themselves. Doesn't mean they can't be excited, just none of that annoying YouTube personality that seems directed at 12 year olds.
