List of Talks Machina episodes

Talks Machina is a talkback show where members of the Critical Role cast, Brian W. Foster, and later Dani Carr discussed the latest episodes of Campaign 1, Campaign 2, and occasionally various one-shots. The show premiered on November 15, 2016 after and generally aired weekly alongside the main campaign until the COVID-19 Hiatus, during which Critical Role Productions paused production of most shows. The show returned in a social distanced, live-to-tape format on September 15, 2020 and instead aired every two weeks.

After the end of Campaign 2, Brian left the company to pursue personal projects, and Talks Machina was replaced by 4-Sided Dive for Campaign 3.

2020–2021: After the COVID hiatus
An episode of Talks Machina discussing was scheduled for March 17, 2020 with Marisha and Liam as guests. The episode was canceled on March 17 to enact social distancing protocols for COVID-19, and all broadcasts including Talks Machina were suspended for a COVID-19 hiatus. After six months, it was announced on September 4, 2020 during that Talks Machina would return on September 15 and broadcast every other Tuesday in a socially distanced format in which guests pre-recorded the show from home. Because the new format was pre-recorded, the show no longer took audience-submitted questions and instead discussed questions written by Dani Carr and other members of production.
