"Eat bench" is one of my top nadpod quotes of all time
Katherine
In anatomy lab, some of the skeletons were super mismatched and we would be like "these bones don't match!" And the bone convo definitely gave me really really weird nostalgia 😭😂
Jarod K.
My wife (council of Elders Member) hadn't heard of the electric slide until they played it at our wedding!
Rain Elizabeth
🎵where did I go wrong, I tryptophan somewhere along in the birdiness🎵
Rafael C
LMAO I'm dying at the R.A.B at the end, this crew of PCs has an insane kind of energy I think I can only recognize in like, Netflix's Castlevania and Dungeon Meshi – except that it comes with that bonus Naddpod sauce 🔥
Samantha Demmerle
Jake's voice acting is so good??????
tay w
this is my 3rd time listening to this episode in less than a week but this episode is just that fucking hilarious 😭😭 also i love how much zudrich’s paranoia has spread through the group
Mike
Jake: excellent work DMing! Caldwell: excellent plug for Lorelei! Got me to start playing, and I’m enthralled. Transported, even!
Tyler Gob
Meant to did a couple times, but man Jake you are killing it DM'ing. The way this campaign is playing out, absolute art ❤️❤️
Angus O'Brien
I’m obsessed with this campaign and these characters like I’m busting out laughing in public
Evie
JAKE you're an amazing DM. You're wrangling the wildest of the wildest, AND your voices are amazing. I know it's dumb to say but I'm so proud of you.
Grass
Had to stop listening to this in the airport because I was laughing too much
Alice Robison
this needs to be new merch!!
Declan Konesky
I've listened to this EP 2Crew amount of times now. And that vibe you mention meeting a proper dungeon crawl and classic monster is everything I ever wanted. THIS is my table
Nique.Mon
Iconic line, I'll never forget it XD
Nique.Mon
Yes! I can't unsee him as a toad either! He is 110% not a human in my mind
Mr. Serpentarius
How to save a bird will live in my head. Also that elevator scene is amazing.
nate_great
Genuinely excited for the next episode. This series is so fun
Juice
no this is exactly what I was thinking -- that movie haunted my childhood nightmares lmao
Yuncle Ben
Gotta love the traps. I love how this feels so D&D roots. I’m so into this lowly lowly lowly campaign.
Beluga
An Indiana Bones one shot where you raid a pyramid and he’s the bbeg would be awesome.
Audrey B
I feel like Caldwell has to know what I’m talking about lol
Audrey B
‘Munchems and crunchems’
Pop
What quiet eyes you have, Welly
Audrey B
Ok Marvis’ voice is sooo good and this is a deep cut but it reminds me of that little guy from the black cauldron, Gurgi.
Robert
This is my favorite campaign ever... Jake is doing an amazing job.. (just need to switch to pathfinder eventually :) )
Michael Puopolo
"Boggy prepares another chair."
soyyyyyysauce
And Marvis is gollum
soyyyyyysauce
Jake the voices are soooooooo good
Samantha Powers
The henchman having a salt and pepper bowl cut was such an underrated detail.
Justin Cockrell
“Say it in initiative, asshole” might be one of the best pre-fight zingers I’ve ever heard
Axel Ottel
I said the exact same thing when I saw the title
Serenity4Jane
Love how Welly and Zudrick egged on each other's paranoia re the butt stuff
Caleb Horton
Bird humor is truly a bottomless treasure trove
Kelley
I've been waiting to hear how Dandy O'Candles died since ep 1 and "beaten to death with his own tinkering mallets" is both perfectly fitting and nothing I ever could have predicted.
Eli
victus's voice sounds a lot like jake's impression of the jokester
Jesus Perez
🤣🤣🤣
TheloniousPunkyBrewster
His fate was far greater
TheloniousPunkyBrewster
"They obviously don't like THIS bench" A glint of glitter amongst a sea of coruscating gold.
Nicole Jordan
Felt like Murph had to provide the Duddle experience (honestly think it happened to Caldwell in trinyvale too so maybe it’s just a DM rite of passage)
Chris Swank
I am BEGGING Jake to run a game of Shadowdark I think he would really really take to it, his style is perfect for it
frogwithhumanhands
I love Jake's writing, but one of my favorite things about this campaign is the player dynamic between Emily, Murph and Caldwell.
Nicole Jordan
Just repeating “I’m drunk” when you get drunk the first time hit close to home. Not sure if Emily was doing it because it’s audio only but it really rang true haha.
Jack el destripador
Why is Boggy just Mr Toad in my head?
Drew Leman
Man I was really rooting for that bird, I wanted him to at least do something and maybe down somebody
Nicholas Johnson
This is one of my favorite lines in the whole series, 4th wall broken
joel
just was not ready for "you sick freak I'm drunk" welly is the gift that keeps on giving
Sagerenee
Amazing pull, I salute you.
Shel B Kennas 1st fav sprite girl! No jokes today, just excited Emily's gonna be on Gastronauts!!
the zu crew accidentally avoiding traps is very hot boy summer accidentally fumbling their way thru solving things
Jake TG
Proud of Jake for pulling the voices you KNOW were hard to preform. You’re doing an amazing job brotha keep it up! 👍🏼
Totally Offside
Boggy throwing a bench at the sniveling henchman sent me.
mangobubs
☠⚔'YOU SEE THE CRAZY THING IS THIS PHELANGE FITS THIS METATARSAL BUT THIS IS A NEWWWW PHELANGE AND THIS IS AN OLLLD METATARSAL -' 😂 Zudrick my favourite boy
Matt Kilsby
52:00 the fucking groaning metal noise is so stupid why am I laughing so hard 😭
Geraint
Jake NPC voices supremacy
Austin W
As somebody who's wife constantly says, "My sister had a baby" I agree 😂
Rachel Shoshanna
quite possibly the funniest episode of the whole podcast 😂😂😂
Ellie P
I just love how goofy they are. Murph and Emily playing together is such a recipe for chaos in the best way and Caldwell is just so gleeful in all of it
Amber B
Lorelei and the Laser Eyes is so good! Thanks for the recommendation!
Jorde
The crew’s seemingly cosmic pull toward bird comedy is why I’ll never unsubscribe
Ilana Galpert
Bulrick the benevolent more like bluster the benevolent
yeow
Agreed, I was really entertained by his storytelling this episode.
Andrew
The first 15 minutes of this episode may be the most hilarious beginning moments to an episode I’ve ever heard. And Jake is killing it with his NPCs!!!!
Emma Robinson
I tripped a bird and I liked it 🎶
ACK
Murph and Jake just absolutely destroying their vocal cords, ya gotta respect it.
Melissa Shilale
ARE YOU SCHOLARS
Brant

Jesus Perez
Marvis sounds like the shrimp from A Sharks Tale that has a nephew that's just a stump
DazWaz
The sound effects of this ep are dope. Good Job Emily!
Saint Panic
Aw man, poor Jake 😭
Alex H.

Hostage4hire
“This guy is anti-mask” fucking killed me
improbable-nox
This episode really tickled me. Unprompted furniture violence. Bountiful bone content. Incredible bird-related cover of a popular song. Incredible. 10/10.
Crumb Gunderson
SKALDOVA !!!!!
Reasch Fair
Alright this ep here really sold me on Skaldova. This campaign rules. Love that Jake's the first of the DMs to really use to a lot of traps, feels like an old school dungeon crawl.
Hermit
I can’t believe Axford is drinking on the job
Hugo Wull
I gotta take some notes on how to trip a bird, I can’t get these crows to touch my wife’s dice.
Grace
Laughed the hardest I’ve laughed in a while at the elevator trap reveal
Maddie Gombis
Love how bone-forward this ep is right up top
Lauren Husting
I'll be using this line FOR SURE
Michael Lawton
I want to fly like a flightless bird, into the future.
Michael Lawton
The most nimble flightless bird in history. I guess if you do believe enough you can almost fly.
Hoenn Honey
at different moments all of these characters are my favorite
Michael Lawton
RUMPLORD!!!!
The Big M

BullgogiFrankie
EAT GREATAXE! (I attack him)
Hunter Gerth
Cannot wait for the short rest on this one!
Tim Sauerland
Absolutely valiant effort by Jake trying to keep these lunatics on track 🛤️ they walked in ready for violence against the DM
Samuel Gray
Jake is an amazing DM, though maybe it’s easier when you’re playing with 3 DMs. Love everything he’s done so far, can’t imagine it will disappoint. Very excited for more!!!!!!
Logan Carpenter
Is Marvis Gurgi from the black cauldron?
Jake Alcott
Huzzah
Caitlyn Dill
Hyper-specific. Love it.
MAH DICK FELL OFF
emilys laugh at 41:58 sounds like when a cartoon character slips on a banana peel
LuigiLvr69
i subscribed recently and just started campaign 2. i wonder how much further into skaldova they’ll get into before i finally catch up 🥹
riley chalk
Just looked it up and it's a children's book😂 oh bother...
Esme McGrath
How to trip a Bird is a beautiful song brought tears to my eyes
Trevor McDaniel
What ever you do don’t google that at work
Cassie Cox
Can we give it up for Brian "Say it in initiative Asshole" Murphy getting some payback for the shit the 2 crew have put him through as a DM. Lmao
Nitzan Harel
I love the music so much! I was walking down the street with my headphones and when it started playing I started skipping, which is neat.
Ross Wright
Indiana bones sounds like a gay porn😂
The Fun Yaunt
Jake!!! These character voices!!! 🤩
Nathaniel Levy
Wonderful reskin of the Tub Brisket one shot
Drew Faber
YOUR DAYS ARE NUMBERED, RUMPLORD
Karen
A horror of a bird strutting atop a carpet of bones, not a single misstep, the most agile talons, entirely untrippable
Drew Faber
SO good lmfao
Emily Wines
*Scaldova - Ep 5: The Parley* me: I really hope they don’t use the side flap
Mr.Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot (aka The penguin)
Obsessed with Emily's comment at 10:25, she really knows how to play the 1st time drunk perfectly
Brittney Ouderkirk
“Say it in initiative asshole!” 😂
Bryan Barton
5 min in and I can’t get over how amazing Jake’s Freeza-esque voice is for Victus.
Rebecca Neal
Emily is behaving like me decking out Shadowheart in every piece of Dark Justiciar gear in the Grymforge.
Alex Mayhem
🎶 Where did I go wrong, I tried to trip / a goddamn bird, but then it crit
Elliot
Praise be to our prompt king!
Simon Hughes
the darksouls knight fucking with the elevator is very fitting
Jean-Luc A
4 crits within ~2 minutes of each other is absolutely insane. Also I see you caldwell with your steve miller reference
Zanna
"this guy's anti-mask!"
Autumnis_Prime

Hans Docken
🎶how to trip a bird 🎶

Victis being an anti-masker in 2025 is an insane pull lmao
