Welcome to the multi-award-nominated Minds Never Matter Podcast!
We're a group of five friends running a narrative-driven homebrew campaign based on 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons. Our current campaign follows four budding adventurers: Emilia Victosolis, the Paladin noble with a not-so-heart of gold; Pogo Stardust, the hard-working Barbarian doing his best to become a Wizard; Cecily Belghriom, a bubbly Cleric with the same vibe as a homeschooled church fanatic; and Sartheleon Grey, the charmingly self-centered Rogue with more problems than his aim with a dagger as they take on one of the most stressful challenges of their lives: becoming college students.
Taking place on the continent Divitotum, comprised of seven unified regions, our party comes together after being enrolled in the Adventuring College of Elona, the center most region in Divitotum. The college is known for training some of the top adventurers in the world, and each of our "heroes" have their own motivations and reasons for coming to the school as freshman. As the four begin to bond as a party and get used to their newfound independence at the school, weird things start happening that may indicate there's a much larger threat than midterms looming on campus.
New Episodes Released Every Two Weeks!

In our 29th session, the party finally make it to the center of a deadly cavern imbued with ancient magic.

In our 24th session, the party finally make it to Glagus! Surrounded by more snow and frost than they know what to do with, our Not-Quite-Heroes have to figure out the best mode of transportation to make it to Starfall City in order to see Pogo's family. As they deliberate on the optimal wagon to take them on their way, they make friends with their new (sort-of) equestrian companions that will be joining them on their journey.
But, as always, not all is as it seems as they find themselves in a fishy situation in the middle of Glagus' overwhelming tundra. Then, they wander into yet another strange, isolated village in the middle of nowhere...
