After building an audience of more than 3.5 million viewers across YouTube and Twitch, Critical Role is hoping some of those folks will follow it off those platforms to its new subscription service, Beacon.
But hold on—if you’re thinking this is a repeat of Watcher‘s recent stumble, CritRole CEO and cast member Travis Willingham is quick to reassure that Beacon isn’t a way for Critical Role to paywall its ongoing content.
“Now, I’m sure many of you are asking, ‘Wait, what does this mean for Twitch and YouTube subscribers?'” he said in Beacon’s announcement video (embedded below). “And the answer is: nothing. Nothing changes for those audiences in how you view our main shows. You will still be able to watch and listen freely, with the same release schedule that it has always been for nine, going on ten years.”

Matthew Lillard knows the power of fandoms.
He’s been surrounded by them for decades, having played iconic characters in everything from Scream to Scooby-Doo to Five Nights at Freddy’s, and now his liquor company Find Familiar Spirits is partying up with Critical Role to launch a limited-edition collectible liquor based on their first campaign, Vox Machina.
The liquor, Sandkheg’s Hide, comes straight from episode 65 of the campaign, where Travis Willingham‘s character Grog buys a couple bottles and promptly gets the gang smashed.
In Critical Role’s Dungeons & Dragons universe, Sandkheg’s Hide is secreted by giant insectoids. But Irl, Find Familiar Spirits’ master blender Ale Ochoa made the drink into a bourbon with notes of baked apple, brown spice, shortbread cookies, oak, herbs, dried red fruit, and “a hint of smoke.”
Each bottle ($99) also comes with a 44-page booklet with an original, canon short story written by Jasmine Bhullar,...

With the home entertainment release of Escape Room, Deborah Ann Woll talks about the horror thriller and her own favorite group games.
When Sony Pictures releases Escape Room for home entertainment on Blu-ray and DVD on April 23, 2019, a whole new audience of horror aficionados and escape room enthusiasts alike will have a chance to enjoy the thriller in which the dangers of what’s supposed to be a game become very real. Deborah Ann Woll was particularly well cast given her enthusiasm for cooperative gaming in Geek and Sundry’s Relics and Rarities, a Dungeons & Dragons campaign show, and she spoke with us about Amanda Harper, her character in Escape Room, and how her penchant for social games goes beyond the kind depicted in the movie.
Woll’s character in Escape Room joins five others at the Minos Escape Room Facility for a chance to solve...
