Push The Roll with Ross Bryant | Call of Cthulhu Improv TTRPG Podcast
Call of Cthulhu actual play meets improv comedy in a fast, funny TTRPG show with Ross Bryant. A weekly actual play podcast where Ross (Dropout TV, The Glass Cannon Podcast) and friends turn listener prompts into cinematic horror‑comedy one‑shots. For fans of tabletop roleplaying, improv, and spooky laughs. How it works: Patreon supporters submit weird and funny scenario titles each month. Ross and friends roll dice against these prompts to spark a brand-new Call of Cthulhu one-shot on the spot. Midway through, they “push the roll” to introduce another suggestion that twists the horror. If you’re into actual play podcasts, improv, or the Chaosium Call of Cthulhu RPG, you’ll find something funny and bizarre here. Start anywhere. The series are stand‑alone one‑shots.
