Talks Machina

Talks Machina is a weekly talk show hosted by Brian Wayne Foster, where the events of Critical Role are discussed. Each week there are several guests who answer questions sent in by fans. The guests are usually some of the regular cast members of Critical Role, but there have also been guest players such as Mary Elizabeth McGlynn and Will Friedle, several of the crew members from Geek & Sundry, and fans such as Andrew from @CritRoleStats.

Talks Machina airs on Tuesdays at 7pm PST/PDT (Los Angeles time). The episodes can be watched live on Critical Role's Twitch channel. The first four episodes, the Critmas 2016 episode, and the live WonderCon episode have been uploaded to the Geek & Sundry website, with episodes through available on a playlist in roughly reverse chronological order. and later are posted to the Critical Role website the Thursday after they air.

The Alpha version had an extended Q&A session after the Twitch stream has ended, which has been dubbed "Talks Machina: After Dark".

As well as questions for the cast, fans submit their fan art and cosplay photos (which replaced the Gif of the Week). The winners are featured in the Fan Art of the Week and Cosplay of the Week segments, respectively, and receive Critical Role or Wyrmwood Gaming merchandise.
