1. The Adventure Zone
This D&D podcast hosted by the McElroy brothers, Justin, Travis, and Griffin, and their dad Clint has a special place in my heart. Not only are there multiple LGBTQ+ NPCs, one of the main characters is too! It is guilty of the 'Kill Your Gays' trope in one of the arcs, but they realized what they did and added more LGBTQ+ characters to make up for it!
2. Welcome To Night Vale
You already knew that this would be on the list. "Welcome To Night Vale" is a radio-style podcast where we follow radio host Cecil Baldwin as he reports on the supernatural happenings in the town and talks about his now-husband Carlos. It is through the Night Vale Presents Network and was created by Joseph Fink and Jeffrey Cranor.
3. Alice Isn't Dead
Also by the team behind WTNV, "Alice Isn't Dead" is a podcast about a woman searching for her wife whom she previously thought was dead. Similar to WTNV, supernatural happenings are following our protagonist in her journey. Despite everything trying to stop her, she continues on her journey to find her wife.
4. The Deep Vault
