Three good places to listen and watch
Hearing other people play alone is one of the fastest ways to learn. These shows are a friendly starting point, listed in no particular order. We link to each show's own page, and we checked every link on 2026-10-09. Some shows publish on YouTube and others on podcast apps, so use whichever platform you like.
The Solo RolePlayers Podcast
Podcast · hosted by PJ
A show about solo roleplaying built around creator interviews, practical tips and live actual-play sessions. The show's page lists several listening apps, so you can follow it wherever you already get podcasts.
Good for: hearing designers and players talk about how they actually play.
Rolling Alone
Podcast · hosted by Paul Walker
A fortnightly audio magazine about solo tabletop play, with interviews, short reviews and segments on tools and terms. Its episode page links to the main podcast apps.
Good for: a regular, magazine-style way to keep up with new solo games and tools.
Man Alone
YouTube channel · a solo RPG creator
A video channel about solo tabletop roleplaying that also touches journaling games, philosophy and psychology. The creator also writes a newsletter and publishes games on itch.io.
Good for: players who prefer watching a game being played and talked through.
How to get the most from them
Listen for the habits, not the rules. Notice how players phrase questions, how they read a surprising answer, and when they decide to skip a scene. Then try those habits at your own table with the yes/no oracle and a quest hook. If a show names a game you like, look for it in our guide to popular solo RPGs.
