Question: Is there a GOOD podcast showing how AW/DW/anything PbtA plays with an experienced GM and players? (i.e. not violating the principles every second sentence and fooling around OOC for most of the time). Thanks for your help!

If you find one let me know.
Roll 20 has a series of AW run by Adam Koebel
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHC1kWACzA7G6D2fqkqsRDg as well as a DW One-Shot.
RollPlay R&D has quite a bit of stuff, including Saga of the Icelanders but I can’t say anything about their quality.

HowWeRoll has a session run by Vincent Baker showing of what you can do in a AW one-shot.

The JankCast (Podcast) has 2 campaigns of Apocalypse World that are quite good.
Walking eye dungeon world Bronze Age is wicked good.
Tim Franzke The PvP stuff (in the HowWeRoll one) is awesome and the session does show how a story can progress naturally without any prep just through the game mechanics. Though I have to say, there is plenty of OOC foolishness (and the sound is abysmal).
I was wondering the same. I have watched a fair number of screencasts but it’s all Defy Danger for generic D&D style checks. Does Adam Koebel play it right? 😉
Yes! Look at itmejp on YouTube. There are more RollPlay videos than you can shake a stick at. I have almost exclusively been listening to the live play sessions for a year on my commute, when I work out, and when I’m doing house work. High quality role play, fun characters, amazing GMs, nice people.
Lady Ansel from Roll play is a great DW Wizard!

Not sure if Sean Gomes will want to jump in and toot his own horn here, so I’ll post this: http://www.forumopolis.com/showthread.php?t=107933
It’s Dungeon World in Play-by-Post format, but over in /r/DungeonWorld on Reddit it’s become a popular reference for new GMs, as it’s considered to be an excellent example of how to run the game. Because of the format, you can easily see how he parses 7-9 results differently from 10+, you can see how 6- rolls on Spout Lore end up throwing “I wish that weren’t true” facts into the narrative, etc. Plus it’s just a really fun read.
Aw gosh Mike Schmitz . 🙂 I’m blushing. I had a heck of a lot of fun with that game. I kinda regret having to can it, but work became too pressing. There was so much more story space in that game.
Maybe next year, when I’m finished making the stretch goals for Uncharted Worlds (plug!), I’ll try running a PbP Uncharted Worlds game.
Well Sean Gomes, please consider me first in line to play in that game!
Sean Gomes I just spent entirely more time than I had intended reading through all 98 pages of the forumopolis play-by-post game that Mike Schmitz mentioned above.
Kudos to you and your players; it was a fascinating read, from both an entertainment and a mechanical/under-the-hood standpoint.
Well done, one and all, and thanks for several long hours of enjoyment!
Ha! You read it all? Wow. Also: Thanks 🙂
In fairness, I made a few mistakes early on (which the power-gamer-y player capitalized on), like the whole Rituals thing. In my defense it was the first PbtA game I ever ran, and the first Play by Post I ever ran. Before that, I had only ever run D&D (2e, 3e, 4e) at the table and over MapTools, and the occasional unsuccessful one-shot (Dresden Files, Mouseguard).
