When the existence of an ancient doomsday weapon comes to light, a group of spacefarers must race across the galaxy to stop it from getting in the wrong hands.


The campaign ended in late 2021, clocking in at 155 episodes that many people believe is the best story told on the Network to date.


Androids & Aliens is an officially licensed Starfinder actual play podcast of Paizo’s Dead Suns Adventure Path.

    Very fun listen
    I've been following the Glass Cannon Network for several years and am mostly through the Giant Slayer campaign and completed Get in the Trunk. If you loved either of those, you'll probably love this one. It's the same very funny and talented group of people.

    So many cool moments… and then there’s Troy
    I get that he is a shock jock personality but it wears painfully thin as he just goes for childish jokes about where people are from, their accents, or even gender. It takes having children for him to remotely tamp down the “edginess” with some perspective and even then it takes adding Sydney before the blatant misogyny and talking over Eleanor slows down.

    Amazing show
    My Spotify Wrapped says I listened to over 26,000 minutes of the Glass Cannon Network this year, so I think it’s past time I left a review. This show (Androids & Aliens) introduced me not only to the GCN but to role-playing games in general (I was a different flavor of nerd growing up, never a gamer.) If you like hilarious people, amazing character-building/ world-building/ storytelling, and RULES (the existence of them, if not the *perfect* following of them) you will love the GCN. You don’t need a background in Pathfinder or D&D to enjoy this fantastic story.

    Almost five stars
    I would give this five stars but am deducting one for Elinor. Nothing annoys me more than actual play personalities that do not take the time to learn how to play the game they are playing. At the one year mark that’s more than enough time to have read the game rules through… several times even. I’ve never played Starfinder and I know the rules better than her. An actor that doesn’t research their character is going to deliver a terrible performance and actual play is no different. I don’t know what she brings to the table and I suspect that’s why then bring Sydney later. She takes no initiative other than moving her token ahead of everyone else and whenever someone makes a move her response is “I listen too!” Or “I’ll help”. DO SOMETHING! I’m at episode 93 and I’m looking forward to Sydney joining. Elinor makes female role players look bad. Always asking the others what she can do, if she can do it, is it ok if she does it. I’m glad they did not put her on any other games as she’s clearly not in her element. And she’s just not entertaining to listen to. GCN needs more female energy in their actual plays but they need to start with competent players.

    My favorite actual-play podcast!
    I’ve listened to a lot of actual-plays, and this one is by far my favorite. I’ve listened to the whole thing through THREE times and it never gets old. I listen to this show the way people watch their favorite sitcom (Office, Seinfeld, etc, etc…), enjoying it and finding it hilarious no matter how many times I’ve listened to it. The banter is hilarious, the chemistry starts off strong and gets stronger each episode, the story is epic, and the tactical play is so fun to listen to. I’ve loved it so much I’m starting my own Starfinder group! Thank you so much GCP! I love you all! Please record a second season when Starfinder 2e is officially released! And bring back Eleanor (a.k.a. “The Cincinnati Kid”)!
  • DINNER-man
    Funny and enjoyable
    I’m only 10 or so episodes in so far, but it has been thoroughly enjoyable. I’m hopping they’ll do another one soon, either another 1e or a 2e AP when it releases!
  • Charlie Tango Tango
    Brilliant in every way.
    Listen to it.
  • FallenJedi1
    Phenomenal Podcast
    Quite literally the best podcast ever and the greatest group. I was so happy to see Glass Cannon live this last December and I always have a smile on my face listening to some Aliens and Androids. Go Naish!

    GCP
    I’ve been flying through all their podcast and they just keep getting better. Amazing!

    Great show
    It was really good
  • GC groupie
    Falling out of love.
    I have been listing to the GCP like is my job I can’t get enough. But Ellie faking this high pitch voice is about to make me quit this podcast. Can she just talk normally. Her comments are also normally flavorless like a mom trying to be cool.
  • CaptainDigitalis
    Funny and addictive
    Glass cannon always delivers amazing content, and their stories are second to none in actual play!
  • GM Path
    This crew produces the best Actual Plays
    This group makes the best podcasts! Not only are the storylines engaging, but the characters are well-realized and believable. Plus, they play Paizo games, which are the best. GCP is the best!!
  • Shaggybritches
    More Quality Content from GCN
    Glass Cannon always delivers quality content and actual plays. Absolutely love this podcast and their others. Check them all out, you won’t be disappointed.
  • Meta Godzilla

  • RImailman
    Been a fan for years
    The BEST podcasts seemingly all coming from the same network for years? Yeah this is it chief
  • profroguerouge
    Great show
    A great improv team. A tough game master. A flexible heist-friendly system that any DM can get inspired by. Great radio
  • Theo BH
    More please!
    More top notch GCN content. If you like actual play RPGs, you are in the right place. Treat yourself to some amazing story telling.
  • nocturnme

    Jared is solid gold!
    Jared is the best thing on the network right now!
  • GeneralMoose
    Game Garage is FFFFFIIIRRREE!
    So much goodness on here. May require some searching to find what you’re looking for. Depends on the cast but between Time Watch & Worlds Without Number, Game Garage has won me over 100%! Jared is a wizard of keeping games paced to be successful and the players have been phenomenal. As a qualifier, of course A&A is superb all the way through as well.
  • Ticklebunz
    Androids and Aliens
    For everyone except you.
  • Austindeanford
    These guys rock
    Huge fan!
  • ArieBiuer
    Simply the best
    Been listening since the beginning. GCP consistently delivers the BEST TTRP content. I love other groups and am fully up to date on a few other actual plays but this group is the home I will always come back to. And yes I’m saying this to the group outside of the core cast. GCP has made a nation of fans and talent that are incredible.
  • DavySP
    Always stellar
    I loved Androids and Aliens when it was going, and I’m loving the variety they’re bringing now.

    Watching a Network Grow
    I jumped in around ep 30 on the o.g GCP and have since been a loyal consumer(radio calls them P1s (Preset 1) and have been investing, through Patreon, in their content and watching them grow into a full blown Network. I’m so glad to have been around to see all this and have great hopes for the future.
  • lionalkilligan
    The best
    Thank you for alll the wonderful content all of you.
  • WhiteTigerAudio
    Thanks Dagon
    I love this show.
  • Horvald
    Skilled masters
    Jared Logan is a fantastic GM, and Blades in the Dark is his gothic playground.
  • swashjak
    So much content
    The Glass Cannon Network can absolutely do no wrong. If you haven’t listened to Haunted City, you are missing out on one of the absolute best actual play podcasts out there. There’s just nothing that compares to the improv chops of Jared, Josephine, Abu, and Ross Bryant. They’re crafting a story entirely their own and it is amazing. Kudos to the team!
  • Gaambit
    Spreading themselves too thin
    Really miss the core group playing. Adding too many new voices for too many short campaigns is not what I signed up for.
  • RyanCharaba
    Androids and Aliens
    Easily as good as the Glass Cannon Podcast except they have 150+ episodes under their belt prior to releasing this podcast. This pod starts refined with amazing sound and quality editing. These guys and lady truly bring the best of all things to tabletop RPG and the new Starfinder RPG. They balance fun, serious role playing, and amazing storytelling for an amazing experience. Give this a listen and it will not disappoint. #OGGCP
  • LWS44
    Brilliant Storytelling
    Episodes like 71, 81 and 130 are why I listen. The narratives woven behind the mechanics are top-notch. Crude humor and jokes at times, but then it’s not for kids. I’ve never laughed harder at some of their speech gags and off-hand comments. Do yourself a favor and start from the beginning. You won’t regret it. Side note: I hope someone has art of Krezka saying, “Bippity bobbity boo.”

    Hey is my phone freaking out or did A&A 46 get overwritten by Inherit the Sands 3 somehow?

    The best starfinder podcast
    This crew is the best. Go check out their pathfinder podcast (Glass Cannon Podcast) too!
  • ShannPenn
    Good Morning Glip Glorp!
    I can’t believe it’s over. From the first episode to the last; I tuned in every week. First on the podcast, and then to the weekly Twitch stream that would become a necessary part of my COVID Friday. It’s really wonderful to see how they turned an at the time new system (flaws and all) into a 3-year journey that would explore the players, their characters, and the way they experienced their world. Truly a great story told in a hilarious but still very serious and real way. I am looking forward to whatever comes next!
  • John T Hancock
    Top actual-play podcast
    I can’t say enough how much I love this podcast. I binged episode 1-33 back in the day so Ive been listening to this pod for years. Now that we’re at 155, it’s crazy the ride that these folks have taken us on. I think I speak for a lot of people (Skid included) when I say that the Starfinder system needs a lot of work and is very frustrating. That being said, the chemistry of this cast is unbeatable. I could literally listen to the opening banter at the top of the episode as a whole show. I love Elli, please include her in future shows. I don’t know what’s in the works, but seeing a show with this same cast playing Traveler or even Starfinder 2.0 if Paizo decided to overhaul the system would be a dream.

    Y’all joe’d my life!
    Nat one on my tuesdays from now on. What epic story do i have to get out of bed to? Seriously, though, amazing stuff. I’ve loved a&a so much and will most likely relisten to it if you don’t offer me another show.....
  • Ramon D'Killa
    One of the best stories ever told
    Start to finish Androids and Aliens has been one of the best stories I’ve heard through any form of media. I can’t wait to listen to them all again to get all those little bits I may have missed the first time
  • SakuraHarunoxX
    Talented Team
    Love these podcasts!!!
  • Harthal
    Legendary
    Amazing show, I have been listening since the start. The cast is great and they have a lot of fun with the show. This one stands out from their other shows for a number of reasons. I’m also a happy Tier 2 Patreon subscriber. They have so much content that it’s impossible to keep up with it all. You will laugh, you will cry, you may even feel a little tingling situation - that’s all part of the experience. (Consult with your doctor if tingling lasts for more than 4 hours after listening.)

  • JodyF8008
    Nothing but love for these Jawns!!
    I’ve listened to soooooo many hours of the GCPN… I’ve listened to every bit of content they put out until May 2021. Switched to A&A so things would catch up for a road warrior binge…. and knocked out 137 eps by July 26th. My goodness this is some of their greatest. I wish they would continue after this but I know they have some big things in store! Listen to the state of the Naish! Totally addicted!!! Naish!!
  • madmathness
    GCP Fun Now with FEMALE Voices!
    I love this group and always liked the Glass Cannon Podcast. However, I said for SO LONG how adding some female members would really elevate their work and make it feel like less of a guy’s party only. As a female listener myself, I felt a little left out until they started with Ellie and now Sydney, too!!
  • LumberjackLuke
    All-Star cast
    Elle and Sydney are great adds to the Glass Cannon Network!
