ABOUT US

Taking Initiative is closing up shop. This website will go down in January 2025.

Taking Initiative was a TTRPG actual-play podcast.  The game was primarily centered around the storytelling and role-playing, but it certainly didn’t shy away from the humor, both in and out of game.  The DM and players ranged from beginners to veterans, giving it a wide spectrum for both the group and the audience.
