So thanks to a little Twitter notification telling me the Adventures in Erylia Twitter account is 1 year old, I realized we’ve been doing this for a year now! We don’t have any big anniversary plans right now, because I tend to consider our relaunch the new anniversary for the show. However, I was still pretty excited to see that we’ve actually been doing this for a full year now. To us, we’re just some friends who get together once or twice a month to play dungeons and dragons with some microphones in front of us.
It’s been eventful and exciting. We launched once, with only a cell phone and a blue yeti to record with. I struggled to get episodes out on time. I struggled with how bad our audio sounded when I compared it to other shows I listen to. So after a few months we made a great change, and our numbers have shown it was worth it. Before the decision to relaunch the show, we were lucky to break 20 downloads in a month. Today’s episode is already at 20 downloads and our average is getting into the 50s and 60s.
Here’s to another year Adventurers! We’re excited to keep going and keep improving, and we’re happy you’ve chosen to come with us on this journey. To call back to our past, here’s our very first episode, poor audio quality and all, which is usually only available to Patreon supporters.
Adventures in Erylia is a storytelling podcast that blurs the lines between an actual play podcast and an audio drama. The podcast features recorded sessions of a homebrew 5th edition game of Dungeons and Dragons that has been heavily edited and enhanced with background music, ambiance, and sound effects.
