Tough call, but out of those four, I chose Divine Spotlight due to the fact that it was a really memorable episode for me. I enjoyed hearing about the gods in your world, as well as some of the histories and backstories to them.

I went with creating and inspiration, but it was by no means an easy choice. All these topics have been sweet even magic which I have never played had a lot of good ideas and league of legends which I loathe because it's a kiddie version of Dota had some cool concept. The divine spotlight is also dope because I am currently working on my pantheon as well. But all that said,creating and inspiration is what got me hooked on the pod!

I chose creation and inspiration. Divine spotlight was a close second, but honestly, I think it could have fit under the creation and inspiration category.

That's what I enjoy about the podcast. Just about every one has given me inspiration of some sort.

...league of legends which I loathe because it's a kiddie version of Dota had some cool concept. DM Mainprize in an upcoming divine spotlight one of the gods that I have in my world is modeled after one of the Dota characters. Well at least the God that they associate themselves with. Can't wait for you to find out who it is. I assume you play Dota?

We have joked about the lightbulb portion of the show to ourselves on many occasions. We reach it at the end are like, "Whats the lightbulb?" and then one of us responds, "...the whole episode..."

Creation and Inspiration, because it contains the most diverse material and is generally more original. The other stuff is already widely accessible if you've got the time and curiosity to investigate. As a LoL player, I loved the episode, but I could've read about all that lore on my own time (if I didn't already know it). Same goes with the M:TG and Divine Spotlight (excluding homebrew deities).

I will second this but if i had the option i would vote to get more under the sea episodes, i have begun building an entire campaign that i expect to last at least 4 months just because of that episode!

The aquatic episode has become my favorite hands-down. I'm currently running a game that started at 1st level. Kraken is the main monster to face for way on down the line, but Aboleths and other abberrations are the main villain types. It's very Cthulu-esque, which plays right into the hands of the party's Warlock, who's pact is with the Great Old One. Heh heh heh... I'm even coming up with the BBEG being a custom class; the Aquamancer, and the final showdown being in the Plane of Water. The 5E DMG has some decent stuff in there about it. Hoping for a good Manual of the Planes soon. I'm using the 3E one for now, converting things to 5E.

I hope they come out with something like that soon as well. I cannot wait to explore more of the planes of Panthia. They aren't made right now. Hear our cries WoTC!

May I recommend checking out the Planescape Campaign setting from 2e. It was built from the base point of the original Manual of the Planes, but was fleshed out by Monte Cook (and others) and illustrated by Tony Diterlizzi. It is, by far, my favorite campaign setting and provides a creative and detailed layout of the Planes. The original box set was recently on sale at Drive Through RPG. But if you don't want to spend money on it... ...PM me.

If the current business model means anything, it won't be for a while. I don't think they're going to overload us with new material very often like they did with previous editions. However, the planes are HUGE, and any campaign on any world connects to them. Therefore I'd think that it should be on their Top-3 of things to issue out. Even above campaign guides for the Realms, Greyhawk, etc.
