Welcome to Pod Against the Machine, the only Actual Play podcast that specifically mentions its opposition to the machine in the title. We’re a ragtag group of five creating an epic story while playing through the Iron Gods Pathfinder First Edition adventure path from Paizo publishing. It’s like Dungeons and Dragons, complete with wizards, monsters, and skeletons...but with an added bonus of evil robots and horrifying aliens, all tied together with our (hopefully) funny banter, interesting characters, and edge-of-your-seat action.

Unfortunately, they're also piloted by people who don't know how to play Pathfinder 2e.

Happy Halloween!
Welcome to a special presentation from Network Against the Machine, one that has nothing to do with the main pod, nor TTRPGs. Instead, it's about stories.
Our very first entry is a spooky short story written and performed by our very own Sam. Join them as we travel deep into the woods. Maybe we'll find some peace and quiet there. Maybe...
The full text transcript of this story is available on our website.
