Best New D&D Podcast 2026 Can We Level Up Yet? is a narrative-first Dungeons & Dragons actual-play podcast set in a sprawling fantasy world of floating islands known as the Endless Isles. The story follows the crew of The Sailing Sales as a washed-up wizard, a would-be boy-hero, and a deeply traumatized tabaxi travel from island to island, trying to help, make money, and avoid the consequences of their own decisions. Plans fail, dice betray them, and improvisation drives the story in unexpected directions. This D&D actual play podcast is rules-light and roleplay-heavy, built around collaborative storytelling, character-led improv, and table chemistry. The narrative grows organically through bad ideas, worse dice rolls, and moments of accidental heroism that feel earned because they aren’t scripted. If you’re looking for a funny D&D podcast, a story-driven actual play, or the Best New Dungeons & Dragons podcast built around improv, characters, and chaos, follow and support Can We Level Up Yet? to help keep the chaos rolling and the story growing.2026 Jody Steel Inc.

  • Episode 9 - I'm Drunk on Life, Baby!
    Mar 29 2026

    A packed tavern. A breakout performer. And a carnival that definitely wasn’t supposed to go like this.

    In this episode of Can We Level Up Yet?, the crew finally explores Tittia—starting with a night at the Dancing Goat that spirals into freestyle rap, questionable business ventures, and Ripple’s brief return to the stage. But what begins as a fun night out quickly turns into something else entirely.

    Murphy follows a lead that hits closer to home than expected. Max discovers a new favorite game (and immediate regret). Ripple proves that confidence is not the same as skill.

    And somewhere between carnival games, suspicious wagons, and a very bad idea involving magic… the crew may have just made powerful enemies.

    Also: milk, nut ball, and the worst stealth mission in history.

    Then—just when things couldn’t get stranger—something on the ship changes everything

  • Episode 8 - Hubba, Hubba!
    Mar 22 2026

    A mysterious flash lights up the western horizon… and suddenly, nothing feels accidental anymore.

    In this episode of Can We Level Up Yet?, the crew limps toward Titia after barely surviving a rift to the Smoke Plane—only to stumble into new problems, new allies, and very questionable financial decisions. Murphy wrestles with a gut feeling that something bigger is happening. Ripple invents solutions (and possibly new problems). Max continues his rise as the world’s most enthusiastic boy hero.

    Along the way, they encounter imperial tax collectors, elite sea mercenaries, and whispers of a dangerous art thief tied to a Tabaxi past that might hit a little too close to home.

    Also: pancakes, ship upgrades, and a crowd forming for someone called Little Wittles.

    You know. Normal hero stuff.

  • Episode 7 - You Can't Quit, You're Fired
    Mar 15 2026

    A secret laboratory.
    A runaway elemental rift.
    And a decision that might be the worst idea this party has ever had.

    In Episode 7 of Can We Level Up Yet?, the crew of the Sailing Sales uncovers a hidden research facility built by the Technocratic Alliance of Gnomish Islands. The lab was meant to study teleportation through the mysterious Plane of Smoke.

    Something went very, very wrong.

    With the facility collapsing and the portal spiraling out of control, the party must figure out how the strange arcane machinery works before the entire island gets dragged into the elemental planes. Unfortunately, their solution involves experiments, improvisation, and a level of confidence that may not be fully deserved.

    Meanwhile, Ripple discovers the past has a way of catching up with you. Especially when that past includes an old rival from the Adventurer’s League.

    Expect chaotic problem solving, questionable portal safety practices, and the kind of decisions that only make sense when you're level three.

    Will the crew stop the rift?
    Will the lab survive?
    And will anyone involved learn a lesson from this?

    Probably not.

    But they might level up.
