The Stars Aren't Alright

By: The Stars Aren't Alright
  • Summary

  • The Stars Aren't Alright is an Actual Play comedy/horror podcast, blending the Lovecraftian mythos with a far future, sci fi setting. The Keeper, Brian, uses the Call of Cthulhu TTRPG system to lead Alex, Catherine, Tom, and Leah through a series of mysterious events, unfolding into eldritch horror that stretches the character's sanity - and, in the end, learning that the true reality bending beings from outside time and space were the friends we made along the way. (This podcast contains scenes of violence, adult language, and - if we did our jobs right - disturbing subject matter. Listener discretion is strongly advised.)

    Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Dec 10 2023
    [Note: This episode was recorded in a much different space than our first episode - as such, there were some issues with the sound. Let us know if it needs work!] Low blood sugar, explosions, getting shot at - it's not been a great couple of days for our heroes. Maybe assembling the team will help? Doubtful.
