Against All Odds

Against All Odds

Project Overview

I'm making a podcast based off a home-brew dungeons and dragons campaign that i ran. It follows the characters Montague bronzebeard, Laila Thana, and Sai Amakiir as they travel the world trying to stop an evil god from taking over the material plane. It's just a side project so i won't be able to pay right now unless it gets popular enough. I'll be uploading 1-2 episodes a month and I'm planning on releasing episode one in may. It's a great story and I want to bring as much life into it as I can away from the table. Some of these roles won't be used for quite a bit of time until later in the podcast, but they will all be used at some point. You will need a discord.

Latest Updates

  • New project.

    Greetings travelers! As you all probably know, the deadline for auditions was a couple months ago. Unfortunately due to unforeseen events this podcast isn't happening at this point in time. But the good news is I have plans for a much smaller podcast! I'll be looking through auditions from Against All Odds and getting in contact with those of you I would like for this new project. If you're interested, feel free to message me. Thank you all for your auditions and I wish you the best of luck!
  • Still Alive

    Hey again everyone! Sorry I haven't really been updating you guys on anything lately, I have been listening to all the auditions and love how many i've received. Life got busy again so I haven't been focussing on this as much as I would have liked to, but I still plan on going through with this. If you could spread the word about the open roles, that would be great! I'm in much need of a good female part, but I'll take any audition I can get. Thank you all so much!
  • Release date.

    Hey everyone! I had originally planned to release the first episode in October, but unfortunately due to scheduling conflicts with school I won't be able to start releasing any episodes until near the end of school in May. I'll still be slowly making episodes slowly throughout the year but they won't be released for quite some time. Thanks to everyone who's been auditioning, and please spread the word to anyone you can about the project!
