All Work No Play

Sam Riegel and Liam O'Brien are best friends that have to make special plans to hang out due to their busy careers, fatherhood, and everything else in between. Each week, we’ll send Liam and Sam off on a special adventure — goat yoga, sword fighting, those kinds of things — and then they’ll meet back up at Critical Role Land to discuss their adventures, life, and anything else that may tickle their fancies.

All Work No Play began as a sporadic podcast on December 1, 2012. It premiered in video format on September 28, 2018 on Critical Role Twitch.
