Scale of market feels some times off sadly.

I was going to use Novel as another example, but then I panicked because of the existence of ‘fiction’ and ‘book’ in head, I then lost all confidence and stuck with Movie. Good to know Novel was the right example.

I suppose it’s worked in the past for ‘Movies.’ Then differentiation therein.

Many excellent replies here already, so I'll add one I've not seen: forgetting it's a podcast.

Act with your voice and/or describe what your character is doing and feeling. We can't see you frown.

If there's combat, describe where you go. You can't just go "there" on the map.

Use your words!!!

I guess the hope is that eventually it does transcend the niche at which point differentiating between styles of presentation becomes a more urgent process. At the moment, it feels like most hear through word of mouth and the style is part of the description.

I propose "How-to-Play", or HowPlay/HoTP streams.

Yeah, like that. On the rare occasion we make one of those, we’ll use that terminology.

Actual Play for games rules? Narrative play for entertainment? Or.. the opposite?

Actual Play and Narrative Play?

Hard agree with all of those.

I assassinated no one. The world did it. And the world is rarely subtle.

OK let's double down. What annoys you about DM/GMs? 😂

Giant Crabs is definitely the key one here.
