Narrative Telephone

"How much does a story change as it gets retold? Introducing Narrative Telephone! It all starts with Matthew Mercer weaving a quick story set in Wildemount. His recording will be sent off to a fellow cast member to be viewed JUST ONCE, and then retold to the best of their recollection. Once the story has passed through each cast member, we’ll compare where it starts to where it ends and see just how much the story changes."

premiered during the programming hiatus caused by the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 as one of three series the studio continued to produce, along with "AWNP: Unplugged" and "Yee-Haw Off the Ranch". Each episode, a cast member determined by a d20 roll told a story, which was then passed down in random order through the rest of the cast. The show proved so popular that it continued once broadcasts of Critical Role itself resumed in July 2020.
