Show overview
Rude Tales of Magic has been publishing since 2019, and across the 7 years since has built a catalogue of 185 episodes, alongside 44 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 210 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence, with the show now in its 8th season.
Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 56 min and 1h 29m — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-language Fiction show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 5 days ago, with 17 episodes already out so far this year. Published by Headgum.
From the publisher
In this improvised narrative role playing podcast, come and join artists, writers, and comedians from Adult Swim, Cartoon Network, Comedy Central, Marvel Comics, and more as they fight and fumble their way across the madcap, and exceedingly rude, fantasy wasteland of Cordelia. Branson Reese and his jester's retinue, Christopher Hastings, Carly Monardo, Tim Platt, Joe Lepore, and Ali Fisher star as a group of unlikely survivors (a talking crow, a lich in a wig, a bubbly fawn, a Sasquatch punk, and a tiefling hunk, specifically) who must solve the mystery of Polaris University's vanishment and return balance and higher education to their world. It's going to be very hard and very, very, rude.

S8 Ep 1[New Campaign Premiere] An Odd Event
EAh, Sophomore year. For many American High Schoolers, it truly is one of the most Second High School Years.

But what if a school year was more than just "the second one"? What if it was the start of a strange adventure testing their potential, their bonds of friendship, and the very limits of imagination?
