I listened to this after finishing Skaldova!! Its so fun to hear how this began!
Camilla Jefferson
i'm on ep29 of campaign 3 but i really want to start Skaldova - are there campaign 3 spoilers? can someone reply and let me know? thank you! :)
WitchKnightRen
Man, Between Two Fires was such a stellar book. It's been over a year since I read it and there are still scenes from it that give me the chills just from remembering them
Professor Pratt
Listening to this now is freaking hilarious!!!
Cooper Erikson
Hell yeah Jake is taking baby steps behind the GM screen love to see it, let's go man. Also wow very impressive setting building that you have already done, love the concept for the world and always makes it good when you have a bit of mystery right out front driving plot forward from the outset.
Sami Kerwin
congratulations on taking the leap, jake! i also dipped my toe into DMing for the first time recently, and luckily you have a great starting place: your players love you and want to help you succeed! all of us do, too, and i hope that gives you a little reassurance. absolutely cannot wait to listen to yall’s story
Tyler Gob
Jake you've got this man. I believe in you!
Tessa Pettyjohn
Yuusss!! I knew who Emily was referring to before she mentioned the name and I was so feckin stoked!
David Montier
"There is no honor in Mudtown" reminds me of the poem "Casey at the bat" ("there is no joy in mudville...")
Totally Offside
I've been listening to the general on repeat since this episode of the pod so thanks for that...
Alyssa
You're gonna do great, Jake! I'm so excited to watch you come into your own as a DM! Don't worry about messing up, we're here for the ride and vibe. I'm so excited; this world sounds so amazing!
Vayne
Send it with the voice Murph, fuck the haters 🙏 also thanks for the book rec, let me return the favor. Stormlight Archive series by Brandon Sanderson Honestly anything by Sanderson, but this series really spoke to me
Jack el destripador
BOGGY RODGER 😭😭😭 I can’t breathe
Bill Kelly
Now that Jake is no longer the only one who hasn’t DM’d, does his bailiff status increase to be *slightly* less lowly?
Austin Wiggin
I'm so hyped for Jake's DM premiere and i'm so HYPED FOR THE BUFFALO BILLS LETS GO!
Jess J
🖤as someone who has never played (def not DM’d) a DnD game : new DM adventures make me feel a special sort of jazzed and even more empowered to maybe play some day. Soooo excited for this, Jake-rock on! This is going to be amazing!
Joe S
I am so hyped for DM Jake and it's kind of funny how nervous he is when within 10 seconds of him explaining his world I was locked in. I have never been more interested in anything in my life. I cannot wait to see Jake DM. I want to hear the voices for NPC's, I want to hear him read box text. I want to hear him design encounters. I am ready!
Lawbind
I see “With DM Jake” and drop everything else I’m doing. This comment is before listening: I’m excited AF for you Jake!
zach stewart
My first module I DM'd was The Sunless Citadel! Excited to see how you play around with it! You will do great Jake, remember that nobody knows what you have planned, so you can't possibly be wrong! :)
Evin Miller
I don't say this lightly, but this sounds amazing!
Rafael C
So hype!! I'm a sucker for playing the secret occultist in settings like this! I'm very intrigued for the vibes and the worldbuilding!! Love this safe atmosphere y'all are giving Jake to DM, very much appreciated (specially as someone who's been summoning up courage to DM – hope my friends are half this understanding lol). In that same spirit, don't worry about us Murph, French it away if it makes roleplaying more enjoyable!
munch lax
Im sure someone has said this but i love swinging the sword in the stone and then while fighting the boss he smashes the stone and has become the chosen one
Nathaniel Parsons
That French accent is tantalising!
Tnm1401
That psuedo-french accent was dope Murph!!!

Spheres of Might 5e has some great non magic character options!

I got so excited when I heard Jake was gonna dm!!! Not because I think it’ll be good! Just just to see his growth as a nerd!!!
Victoria Fair
I'm so excited for this world and for Jake the DM!! You're going to do great and you've got a table full of supportive players!
Pali Endi
“Peel the magic away” is an evocative image that I hope gets revisited ~ You’ve got this, Jake!
Heavy Harry
I've been waiting for this for sooooo long
K C
Between two Fires was a great read. Some fantastic horror/demonic elements to it.
adrian aguilar
WWWWHHAATTTT!?!?!?!
Melissa Shilale
MURPH! I had a vision of you putting on the French accent in the beginning then reveal that it’s fake and go gravely.
Melissa Shilale
Crying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come on Cake!!!!!
Paavu Escanor, the goliath paladin providing service with a smile
I can't wait to listen
Joey
Hell yeah brother! I’m so excited!
Signe Krantz
Pleaaaaase Murph do a French-ish accent if you feel comfortable with it, like an Italian accent it's never wrong to do
P MW
Hugely looking forward to the roleplay of dry siege logistics and crop rotations
Alexander Mercado
Break a leg Jake cant wait!

go jake
just a little bawn
My head cannon is that all the crows in this world are somehow descendents of caw caw
Matt Kilsby
The numbers of comments and likes on this post are making me smile. I hope Jake is seeing this as a sign of how loved and appreciated he is, although I’m sure he’d just say it’s just added pressure 😂
Georgia
God I'm so excited to see what Jake has for us! and I'm especially anticipating what wacky a dynamic Murph Emily and Caldwell will fall into; this is the first time we get that specific combination! I've been on the fence for awhile but Jake taking that leap must at last motivate me to dm the campaign I've been pondering. can't wait for whats next!!!
mikel_pickle
But what news of the granaries in this campaign? Are they depleted?
Aaron McNeil
Can we see the map?
Ilana Galpert
the idea of being able to use animal messenger on any creature with a flying speed is soooo funny. Imagine you can talk to animals if they're flying, so if there are no birds around you have to cast fly on a random creature, and THEN you keep having to convince them not to use their new powers to fly away (I know animal messenger isn't speak with animals but the idea tickles me so)
Monk3yTouch3r
Can't wait to hear the first submission that Bailiff Cake has to read in Court that was written by the crew. 😂
Ian Dack
Super excited for Jake to DM was on my wish list for the short form campaigns!
Monk3yTouch3r
ITS HAPPENING! I got my cup turned up, on the pursuit of happiness. Happy new years ya'llvrybody
Ilana Galpert
i am sorry if this is too explicit it occurred to me it might be but i'm not sure? there is no violence and there are no firearms and it felt like...i needed to tell you
Ilana Galpert
did you guys know there was a peruvian drug bust led by the grinch????? somebody is taking surprise round too seriously this is grinch life imitating grinch art edit: I put the video link here but it occurred to me it might not be appropriate so I took it down but it is on youtube

Mr. Dude Sky
So excited! Jake will be a great DM I can already tell by the names on his map. Emily always has the most interesting and varied character concepts, can't wait to see who she will play! The Class Murph is looking to play is awesome. The Griffin's Saddlebag is some of the best DnD content I've run, I cannot shill enough for the Griffin's Saddlebag. I have a player who uses that subclass and thought it was so much fun. I hope you go with this one. Caldwell with the blindside characters. Always a wildcard and always a lot of fun. Can't wait to see what shenanigans he can get into with this. Jake should prepare himself
David Klein
I'm straight up Jaking it. And by it haha well lets just say my Nadpoles
The Cabbage Merchant
French birdman is a must
Ken
Exciting, and I hope it goes great! But it always seems so weird to me when the setting is such a cool dark world and then people make joke characters. I mean I guess it makes sense since this is more of a comedy show, but I feel it would be more fun with actually serious characters.
Caitie McD
I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS! i was re listening to the early hearthside where u had just started to play, and seeing how far you’ve come is so exciting !!! congrats, you’re gonna kill it jake 💗
Fanwithglasses
Was telling my boyfriend "I hope we see Jake DM sometime," after C3 ended. New Year's miracle indeed
Brandon McLaughlin
Maybe not for this campaign, but i think you would love the alternate and new classes made by creator LaserLama. His done a complete overhaul of all the martial classes and has made even his new classes. My whole group has gradually converted over to uses his stuff.
Evan Fleischer
Hey, Jake! Excited for the ... three-shot? For what it's worth, here are two quick unsolicited things that have always helped me, a forever DM: (1) 'Go slow in order to go fast.' What might strike you as slow in some way is inevitably going to strike the listener as a -- 'Whoa, how did he do that?' (Athletes aren't athletes because they 'hurry up,' you know?) (2) Yes, yes, there's "rEsPoNsIbIlItY," but ... you're telling a story with your friends! And that's super cool. Peace, love, rock and roll, cake, Grinch, etc etc etc.
Meg Shallanberger
I started listening to naddpod same time you started playing on it. I simultaneously fell in love with the show and you. I'm sending the joy you've given me back to you.
Meg Shallanberger
That you will do will great, Jake, is a given. You all on naddpod have gotten me through hellish times. I'm thrilled to see your new world.
Summer, Autumn Eladrin
I kinda hope Emily plays the love-lorn chivalric knight to contrast Murph's grizzled cynical knight and Caldwell's bandit who just wants to make a new crew
Bobert G
So stoked for this
Rob Lewin
HUUUGE
Maya B
For a cool low-magic historic fantasy I highly recommend The Lost Queen trilogy by Signe Pike, it’s about the last pagan kingdoms in northern England as early Christianity starts to take hold. There’s a lot of very cool descriptions of subtle magic and working with nature, and it kinda gets into our relationship with ancient history and earlier philosophies/spiritualities. Felt very on-theme and also something I think especially Emily would like potentiallly ?
dummythixon
So so stoked for this also, I recently learned about the illrigger class and think some of those subclasses could be really cool here as PCs or NPCs!
DarthTurkey28
I’m truly so excited! Can’t wait to watch Jake DM! You got this Jake!
George
So amped for this!!!!!!!
Michael Lawton
Jake, I am so psyched for this. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, you have truly grown as a player and we ALL support you 100%!!!

BOGS BOGS BOGS BOGS. I played a bog druid and every game came through with a different bog fact.

French accent Murph is a must.

Three episodes?! Nah. I'm going to need a full length campaign of this. Period.

Show the map!

Of course Brian City Pigeon Murphy wants to play a guy who can talk to birds
Elizabeth Harris
I’m so excited about this! And like a typical First time DM- there’s so many ideas that this arc will last longer than he expects! So many “one shots” are actually 4-8 sessions! So many great ideas Jake!
Tuesday Hernandez
Murph PLEASE be a disgruntled frenchman who talks to birds
Adrian
Jake DM! Lets go!!!! You got this

EEEEE so excited for dm jake!!!
Alinta Rose
So excited!! I better get to catching up :D
Thrath the Demon Lord of Spite
Oh my god this all sounds amazing!! Emily’s squire idea sounds so much fun! And a guy named Helmet is amazing! Murph with the birds so good! And Jake’s world is so so sick! I can’t wait with whatever they all decide to do and feel like Jake is so ready for this!!
Aiden
so incredibly excited jack, this is a big opportunity youve been given here! dont fuck it up. dont fuck it up. do NOT fuck it up.
bj cox
You got this Jake
Oakenguard
You guys might consider a 2024 barb if the theme is Norse ish. They got some sweet upgrades and would be sick in low magic, especially in lower levels.
Dale Jefferson
Don’t let us down Jake. There’s a lot riding on this one bro. Dungeon Jakester? Is that a good nickname??
Jessie Kuehm
The way I SQUEALED when I read the title. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

DM JAKE!!!
Geeksforlunch
Jake DMing for the crew is awesome! It's gotta be like watching an apprentice take their first solo steps!
Chuck P
Let’s go Jake everyone is counting on you!
Heck
People don’t talk about how uber drivers are the modern knight
Li I
I am so excited for this! Seeing magic coming back to a place the lost its magic is my favourite kind of story. And the characters sound very cool and weird, which is the best combination. Jake, good luck! We are rooting for you and happy that you’re doing this 💙
Li I
Regarding the initiative thing - i think the new Alert feat is good for that. You add your proficiency bonus to initiative and you can trade place in initiative with any willing PC as long as you’re both conscious. It’s obviously not as good previous Alert feat, but it’s a background feat, so it makes sense. Plus the surprised condition is different anyway…
Zane R
Hell yeah, DM Jake!!! You got this! Also, Between Two Fires mentioned! Such a good book!
Cora Bright
I’m so excited!!!! Hopefully something fun to call him comes up like “DEmily” or “Dunkle Caldwell” Best I got so far is Jungeon Master or DJ (Dungeon Jake)
Chris J.
Silence everybody else. Jake is DMing
Bree
HUGE!!!! I’m still at the beginning of C3 but I’m so looking forward to listening to Jake’s first DM arc once I’m caught up!
Jackie Hale
YESSSSSSS!!!! I’m so excited! Jake, you’ll be amazing!

This is fantastic watching Jake grow from not remembering his action surge and second wind to being a master of all his fighters stuff to now finally confident to Dm for the rest of the 2 crew I'm absolutely excited for this I feel like I'm growing along side my man as well I got into naddpod because I didn't know much of DnD so learning with Jake has been wonderful
Nia R
YESSSS DM JAKE!!!
bj cox
I’m so excited
Jordon Brown
I demand French Murph
fresh03
I prefer to do a little negotiating to bring things back to reality rather than just outright denial to my PC's, plus this is Caldwell, Murphy, and Emily, how far could they take it? Lol
Torrey
I'm so psyched. I was really hoping to have a DM Jake campaign.
Nicholas
I can definitely think of a few cases where a firm ‘no’ is needed but I get what you are saying lol
Nicholas
OMG this is so exciting! I should have guessed that Jake would be dm since you guys said it would be an exciting announcement! Although to be fair it’s been a hot minute since y’all have talked about it so you’re sneakiness worked
Hannah G.
Hey me too! It’s been super fun learning DnD as a listener along with Jake
KingHalt
This is going to be awesome!!! Jake you have TRULY come so so far since 2018 and I speak for every NADDPOLE when I say we are so proud of you and support you 100%!!!!!!
Nick Nelson
I’m so incredibly excited for this
Lonestar
If you are playing by "the rules" then that's what they are. Homebrew-wise you can do what you want. But rules as written, if you are playing by 2024 rules, you must use the new version of the subclass if it exists. I only mentioned it at all because they talked about how there weren't many options to choose from with 2024 classes, but the old stuff is technically still allowed. Same with backgrounds. There are guidelines in the book for using 2014 background with 2024 characters. It's pretty neat. At the end of the day, whatever they wanna do is dandy!
Hostage4hire
THIS IS WHAT WE BEEN WAITING FOR
Argonautica
Once again I'd like to recommend an MCDM class if you're open to 3rd party. In this case the Beastheart, very fighter like, kind of battle master like, but they also *really* lean into having a companion pet... like a bird maybe.
Rook
I’ve been that island in NC! It’s really cool, I even found half of a horse pelvis bone there and am in the process of cleaning it.
jaydee meowr
Oh yes, love that Cadwell suggests a character that is putting things in his mouth. Very on brand for the player 😜

Dude!! I’ve absolutely had that same nightmare! Where my computer is a limp ikea instructions manual and I can’t get it to work!

Can't wait for the mini campaign! Sunless Citadel is a ton of fun to run as a DM, just stay loose and never outright say no to a PC idea and you'll have a blast!
Tiffany
I'm still on campaign 3 but this is the COOLEST

IM SO EXCITED

I’m so happy and excited!!
Savannah Hankinson
Let’s goooooooo Jake!!!!!
Martin S
Hoping for this mini campaign they don’t have super tight editing - would be fun to hear Jake and gang fumble around and figure out things for both DMing and 5.5, similar to how the first campaign had a lot more “learning moments” throughout of everyone figuring out the game.
Gwen Gilpin
So excited for this! Jake DMing! Arthurian shit! Possible French accents! Bogs! Birds! This campaign is going to be right up my alley.
Stuart Boelts
Let’s go DM Jake!
Ryan C.
Y'all should lean so unnecessarily hard into the Dispatch inspired backgrounds. Emily's knight "stole a ring from a flying horse" God and that's why her own steed abandoned her. The "ring is all rusty now" and she's on a quest to restore its luster and regain favor from the horses to earn her title back. Along the path to Mudtown she found a badger and a one-eyed toad that are now her familiars.
Suzanna DePeri
Yayyyyy Jake!!! Can’t wait!!!
Elizabeth Harris
MAP MAP MAP MAP! We LOVE it!!!

Hell yeah Jake! I'm so excited to listen to this!

The Sunless Citadel was one of my first dungeon crawl mini-campaigns when I first started playing D&D and I’m super stoked that Jake’s including it for his first DMed game. So proud of you Jake, you’re gonna crush it!
Joshua Steiner
When I saw the title in my feed I shouted! So excited for this campaign!

Holy crap!!!! Let's go Jake!!!!!!
Totally Offside
Love how much Murph slow played the reveal of his vaguely French catchphrase. "Zer eez no honeur in Maudtown."
Sand Panda
Oh! They also fight along side a baby dragon.
Sand Panda
Murph... you described a playable type in the old MMO FFXI (11, not 14). The Dragoon. They wear purple gear, fight with a lance (or sword), jump on targets and their back story is linked to a "French" like kingdom. You basically described my old character, lol.
Erik Boudreault
Soooooo excited for Jake in the DM seat his world is the exact one I wanted to make for a campaign of my own I love it!!
Omar Mtz
You can do it Jack!!!!

omg! I just started episode 1 of C3 but I might just have to listen to this as it comes out. Go Jake!
Jbird723
Jake DM?? We are eating in 2025
Lexi loves the 2 crew!
Murph i pledge myself to fighting anyone that takes issue w the accent. It’s so good and instantly brought me so much joy. But follow ur heart
Corey Ruef
JAKE DM-ING WILL BE SO HYPED Also Jake would love an Aragorn, King of Gondor deck because it’s not 5 mana and Jake could be King
Jor Elare
Emily's chaste knight is loosely reminding me of Adam Driver's character in the Last Duel, which would fit the setting perfectly >.>
Trisha
YESSSSSS DM JAKE
Joe K
😱
Jonathan Danner
For what it’s worth I like the French one!
Joseph Christodoulou
Excited for this Jake! Would be funny to pay homage to Amir by including a character that goes by the name of “The Chipmunk”. He could be a thief, with large cheeks, who hordes all his steals.
Tim Sauerland
Murph should totally go with the “French” acccent
Jon
Excited for Jake but I think now he will be too busy to ever guest on 8bit, shame
AXWH

Evan Cordero
This is gonna be awesome. Very excited to see Jake go from drinking in the fiddle to now lacing up his DM boots. You're gonna do great, Jake!
Audrey B
Omg yessssss!!!!!!!
Kal knows you’re listening Riccarda comma wink
YOURE GOING TO BE SO GOOD CAKE
Tara
Love everything about this! Love the world and cool names and everything! Love the fake French accent for murph and literally all of Emily's ideas. I stopped this in the middle because Emily mentioned naming her character Boudicca and that made me so excited i nearly dropped my phone! That's one of my fave historical people ever! I fully endorse that name (but i know any she picks will be amazing). I paused before hearing Caldwell's picks but psy knight was floated and that sounds awesome! Anyway much respect to Jake for jumping into dming for the first time in a recorded session! I know you'll do great! You're smart, have experience with the game and have great support!
Dominique Kupersmith
OMG!!!!! It’s happening!!!!!!!
Good Sir James
So psyched for Cake's DM Debut! I hope it goes longer than 3 episodes. I've been a longtime short rest/mixed bag listener, but I never post- I felt like I had to, in order to let the 2 Crew know that after Jake's campaign we NEED more Twilight Sanctorum aka Twanc. Like, a full Twanc campaign please.
Audrey S
I'm soooo freaking excited!!!
Glenn Dowdle
Don't listen to the haters we love the accents!
Ro
Hard agree! I’m from the midlands and Callie’s brummie accent gave me so much joy!

This is going to be a real banger, can't wait!

I Love Not Finishing My Sentences

YES!! I've been wanting Jake to take up the DM's chair for so long, he's going to be amazing

Sunless Citadel was one of the very first adventures I ran as a DM. Can't hear Jake's take on it!
Aaron Sterne
Please do the French accent murph
ACK
Boudica! A celtic British national hero who fought against Roman occupation after her daughters were mistreated!
Cass Cassillas
Low fantasy is probably my favorite subgenre of fantasy. I've been so excited for this since Jake first mentioned wanting to DM something in the genre. Jake's grown so much as a DnD player and creator since the start of NADDPOD, I'm sure you'll do an amazing job bailiff!
drmimms
Whoa! I'm so excited for this -- and Jake, you're going to do great! You've got a supportive table and a super cool world, both of which are key ingredients to a good time. :)
A. Lee. S
Alright. The moment I’m done Yumi and the Nightmares Painter, I’m starting Bright Sword. Convinced!
Chelsea
I think a 3-shot (or so) is a perfect place to play with an accent for Disenchanted vaguely-Frenchman, because if it's annoying, we don't have to live with it for long! We've heard "quiet gruff boy" lots of times. It's Vaguely Frenchman's time to shine.
Craig Weatherhead
I’m begging on my hands and knees for Murph to do the “French” accent. Also, your world sounds amazing Jake you’re going to do great! Cannot wait.
lukekinn
Now I need to see this map
Nic Stull
Dungeon Bro Jake?
ACK
I am beyond hyped, we better get to see that map at some point!
Rotem Cohen
Yassssssss!!!!!!
Mr.Weinerson
I just wanna say, I’ve been listening since day one. Naddpod is the reason I became a DM in the first place and I’m overjoyed to see the great Jakester Von Jakiepoo take the mantel! You’ll do fantastic Jake, I can’t wait ♥️
Rain
YESSSSS OMG FINALLY JAKE DM!!!!!
AutoReroll
5.5, the system so good D&D Beyond needs to trick you into using it. I just feel like they rushed it out without their usual standard of balancing and care because their CEO needed to show a provable bump in merchandise sales for this quarter.
Pavel Lishin
Holy crap, I'm so excited to hear him run this!
Matthew Sands
For variable initiative off of a set number, steal the mechanic from Feng Shui where you have a positive die and a negative die. If they're even your init is the static value, otherwise it goes up or down as they indicate. Pick the relevant dice based on the amount of swing you desire.
Garga Lenoir
As a French person Emily did fine with her French-like accent. She avoided the annoying pitfalls - The "hon hon hon". No idea where that comes from, never heard anyone laugh like that. - Inserting some les mots français in the middle. People don't speak like that when doing foreign languages. - The weird aggressive tone Murph did in this (otherwise very funny) old video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDHDM7PfyYs I mean weird aggressive people might talk like that, but they'll be seen as lunatics. Your "there is no honor in mudtown" sounded good I thought! About chivalry being related to horses that's spot on. Horse in Cheval in French, so it's not hard to see the etymology.
Jack Malizia
Our prayers have been answered! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼, thank you Babayaga
CatenarySun
Jake was waiting 30 whole minutes for that veto 😂 I felt it in my bones.
TheloniousPunkyBrewster
I agree, Jork will do great!!
TheloniousPunkyBrewster
I feel you about 5.5, Still just feels icky and I don't trust WOTC to not pull the same shit as before ... 😒🤨
Jackmirfield
Woah steel hawk is awesome. I wanna play that
Blaize Gordon
I can't wait to gorge on this during my shift!!!
Joke Hat
Oh wow I didn’t know there was a fighter subclass called DM
Axel Ottel
If this is a knight heavy campaign I beg on my hands and knees for the crew to realise that the "Sir" goes with the FIRST NAME, not the surname!
Ian Hudson
@caldwell Hudson is a very strong last name Lolol
Ian Hudson
Hell yeah Jake! This is gonna kick ass and you’re gonna do great
Sophie Buijsen
400+ comments of pure excitement for Jake and Murph's "French" accent. Don't pander to the haters! We know all of you will do a brilliant job!
Justin J Francis
JAKE JAKE JAKE JAKE
Marley McDonough
Release the map! But seriously my favorite thing about NADDPOD has been the storytelling. Jake’s been a natural since the beginning. And mastering the mechanics will come in time. So excited to see them playing this world!
PolarityBear
"No one holds wood better than you, Woodpile!" Disagree, we also have the Horny Knight

Kinda excited for this :) Hope Jake does well.. Still hoping for some pathfinder eventually though.

Been waiting so long for this! Jake if you'd like some good reading on magic left the world and is now returning, check out Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke, it's a great book that covers an alt history around the Napoleonic war where magic is returning to the world.
Madison
Amazing!!! Jake is gonna kill it im so hype
Peydon Bush
So hyped
Kitt
I AM SO EXCITED TO LISTEN TO THE DM PAPA JAKE
Daniel Postlethwaite
Release the Frink cut
Transfemmes4murph
The worldbuilding sounds incredible from Jake and he should be more confident in the great work he’s done (ik its hard)- wet dream batman better be a pc
Harry Frost
Awesome, so sstoked! Check out Hereward the Wake for boggy robin hood. Also, for me confidence is key for accents . The character isn't doing an accent, that's just how they talk. If you're cast, you have to do something, so it's just got to be something you can do with no self consciousness regardless of accuracy. That's my approach, I'm a full time voice actor, might not be right but it makes sense to me and is a helpful mantra.
Justin Lust
So hype for this one! Bro Master Jake is going to kill it
John Hubbard
Silver sands, and you’re a new dad Jake. Did pulled that from the Julia Donaldson kids book “the singing mermaid” if you did fantastic choice. If you didn’t pick it up, Gemma will love it
SnorriFreyr
No fucking way!!
Angel
I haven't even listened yet but I need to make it known how ecstatic I am to hear Jake DM
Danny
JAMPAIGN JAMPAIGN JAMPAIGN!
Proopypants
Very happily feasting on Jakeout for this one!!!
Smol
Happy to become a subscriber shortly before the arrival of DM Jake. This mini campaign will be dope and, please, do as many funny accents as you wish.
AutoReroll
Love this whole thing. Not really that pumped about 5.5e if I'm going to be honest. But I am SO excited to hear Jake's DM style!
Nova
I’m soooo excited about this! I love how much thought Jake put into this world already!! 🫶
Nova
I agree - y’alls accents have literally never done anything but delight me!
JR Lonergan
I'm desperate for Murph to do his French accent!
Ben Herman
Saw the notification for this episode and started barking like a damn dog
snakejanders
I'm excited for this!! I heard that if he does a good job, we might even get to see jake as a guest on 8-bit book club this year!

A magic scholar would be fun. Not someone who knows magic, but their mission is to prove/disprove the existence of magic, past or present

Matthew Clark
So pumped for Jake to shine ✨️ 🙌
Captain Morgan Pirate Wizard

JAMPAIGN IS HERE AND REAL
filofilo
Let’s go Jalk!!
Flying Horseduck
You got this Jake! I’m so excited.
Jocelyne Moore
For my two cents worth, fuck the hater Murph. Do whatever accent you feel like. It's y'all's show and game. We're privileged to get to listen to it. If people are rowdy about an accent choice they can go get a PhD in regional accents and fuck themselves with the diploma.
Peter S.
Whooooo! I haven’t had time to listen to it, but I’m super excited!
A
So excited, time for Jake to shine!
Gnome sympathisants 420
This is possibly the most excited I’ve been for an episode
Virginia Phelps
RELEASE THE FRENCH MURPH CUT! I am so excited for this campaign!!!
Zanna
Jake, you're gonna make such an amazing world. I'm already excited!
Felix
Lowkey Boggy Roger sounds awesome, pls post the map Jork!
Drew Fugate
This notification came right after my 12 year old husky passed away. I've been a fan of Jake and Amir for about 14 years and a patron subscriber of NADDPOD for about 2 years, so this is some much needed news. Love you all.
Hashtaggles
I can’t wait to see what you do Jelk
Cody Zimmer
Happy for and proud of you Jake. The start of something great for you, and therefore us. :)
Brandon Wiens
Holy shit this is epic. We all could taste the day Jake finally put on the DM apron got cooking! Based on the limited info he gave, Jake’s world sounds EERILY similar to the world in the campaign I run! Which makes me want to talk about new ideas with him! 🤙🤙🤙
Katie P.
Kick ass, DM Jake! This sounds so fun!
Kid Chaos, harbinger of the myth times
Haven’t listened to the episode yet, but the notion of Jake dming is so heartwarming omg!!!!
sarfs
Jake! I got chills when you talked about the Age of Stories and the reasons it’s called that, so excited about your world building.
TwoPuppetsTTV
Never thought I’d live to see the day.
Neil Dutton
Tip for Murph: "hon hon hon".
Calic Tolentino
PROUD OF YOU JAKE! YOUR GONNA KILL IT!!!!
Nitzan Harel
OMG OMG OMG! Called it! Good luck dming jake!
brookieblue
JAKE!! I was just wondering if we’d ever see Jake behind the screen and HERE WE ARE!!!
Elizabeth Gunn
oh VERY good
Elizabeth Gunn
My therapist is insisting that I "increase my tolerance for positive affect" because apparently all good things come to an end, sooo I guess I have to listen to it. For the therapy.
Elizabeth Gunn
You and me, Jean, we'll meet the haters under a bridge with a big stick.
Elizabeth Gunn
I'm still waitin on that sumbitch to read some more Animorphs. I need him and Emily to reckon with the horrors that I did as an eleven year old.
Elizabeth Gunn
OH MY GOSH YOU GUYS THIS IS SO EXCITING! You're gonna rock it, Jake, can't wait!
DragonNerd
Based on the character ideas I feel like a good name could be the disgraced order

Vaelyhn
Oh my god YES! After years of waiting we've finally got one of Jakes many promises to do a thing (Play The Witcher, be a cake guy, read Animorphs, etc.) Excited for this year of NADDPod!
The Witch of Ways and Means
Me too! I’m glowing with parental affection rn
Mac
why can't you use 2024 fighter with 2014 eldritch knight? (i mean why would you want to) but my point is why restrict yourself? play how you want to play
Mac
i was gonna say that i'm proud of jake for being the first guest DM of naddpod, but i forgot that jasper william cartwright ran a 2 (3?) shot. beat him to the punch xD

Jonathan
I hope the boggy buds live
Cristian
MERRY FUCKING CHRISTMAS THIS IS SO CUTE
Jean
You guys really should stop paying attention to haters, the number of people who will love the things you do is aways greater, at this point is making me complain about you being afraid of haters complaining!
SMG
do the weird classes so i can live vicariously through you
Jordan Quandt
I was so hoping Jake would do this eventually. He’s going to do great! If nothing else it’ll be fun and humorous. Regardless he’ll do great!
Andres Romero
Murph please do the french dragoon
Aiyana
it'd be cool if mudtown was pronounced like "mud ton" kind of like how Melbourne is pronounced as "melbin" or just generally the way the pronunciation morphs
marshal giles
Would be so funny if jake some how tpk’s them
Glenn Dowdle
I can't wait to see how Jake DMs!
Keith Baynham
JAKE MODE JAKE MODE
Lucas
As a french-canadian, I would love to have this accent
Jonathan
There is no honor in mudtown is my next tattoo
A. Lee. S
The way I shut everything off in my house so I could sit and fully listen 😅🤗
Courtney F.
Murph, please do the Frink voice!!! We love it!
Courtney F.
Came to say the same! I would LOVE to hear the Murph Frink voice!!
Aiyana
I was like "how is murph getting in the hot seat so soon again for a February campaign?" but now I know! very exciting!
Geraint
But he is thinking about it as a distant possibility
Stevi Weber
I'M SO EXCITED
Ollie
Gasped when I saw Jake was DMing, u got this !!!!
Geraint
A yuncle, if you will
James Keller
You’re gonna knock this out of the park, Jake. I believe in you!
Kerry
So stoked for this campaign and world!!!!
James Keller
I’m so so so PUMPED for this
Geraint
Tucker please, let Jake have this tiny w
Anna Sun
Humbly voting for Murph to use his Not French accent for his new character! Love the vibes of a grumpy and secretly tender hearted Not Frenchman who has turned his back on idealism.
Geraint
Thankfully I think he's gonna be equal parts thrilled and terrified when it happens 😆
Rebecca Neal
All of their potential characters sound incredible.
austinoxner
We got Jake as a dm before he got into cake. Big time!
dani
omg caldwell's character pitches feel so souls game-coded with the grungy humour and the naming style the idea of a dude just taking the whole rock with the sword is absolutely hilarious LOL but omg boggy buds and his voice is so good XDD
Matthew
Unbelievably excited for Jake to DM! He is literally how I felt when I started DMing and I’m still very new lol
zarratm
My first campaign I ran a custom version of the Sunless Citadel! You’re gonna do great!!
Geraint
SO AMPED!!! This sounds absolutely sick Jake, can't wait 🤩🤩🤩
Evem
I'm very excited to see what Jake puts together
Nicole Jordan
Omg this is so exciting! We’re all cheering you on Jake and your world sounds so so rad
Matthew Silverstein
You’re gonna do great Jake!

Ellen Stanfill

Darion Aronson
I've been wanting this since Jake said he DM'd for his cousins or nieces or whoever it was.
itsellie
So excited!! You got this buddies!!
Ashton Johnson
The noise I made when I saw the title was inhuman
dani
murph!! if the deciding factor of whether or not you try a french-ish accent is the potential rude comments then please know there's plenty of us who 1. dont give a shit how accurate it is and 2. wholly support you trying new things and expanding your range!!!! a kinda french romantic disillusioned bird-loving ex-knight would be awesome!!!!!!!!
Adam Sutton
THE WAY I SCREAMED IN EXCITEMENT!!!! JAKE!!!
MrDoubleOmeg
Jake’s DM’ing? Nice!
Flannelfriend
GO JAKE GO JAKE!
Dave 3D Art
Boggy Rodger is starting from zero.
Lonestar
I'm sure someone may have said it already, but it's worth mentioning that 2014 subclasses are still compatible with 2024 rules so long as the subclass hasn't been replaced in the 2024 books. So you can't use the 2024 Fighter with the 2014 Eldritch Knight, because a 2024 Eldritch Knight exists.
Maximus Awesomeness
Caldwell said so many amazing ideas then I was really surprised when everyone was really into the bog guy
Erin G
so excited!!! jake, you’re going to do amazing!
Ev
Everyone is so excited in these comments!! I hope Jake isn't feeling too much pressure, we just wanna support <3

dani
oh my god i'm fucking losing it at emily's horny knight she fucking GETS IT LMAO between this and one of her pitches for her critrole character, the guy who yearned to be devoured by his diety or smth, they cater to such a specific type of taste in comedic horniness that is so up my alley LMAO emily u are so fucking funny never let anyone tell you otherwise oh my god
Raymond G
Shout out to Jake! He’s gonna do great! It’s a shame that he does contractually have to resign from being the Bailiff. What a weird rule 🥲
Matt Gustavson
Murph should give his new character the Roy Kent voice

Kris Barnes
Jake don’t be so nervous man. You’ve played high level D&D for nearly seven years and you’re an accomplished actor/writer/director. You’ve got way more experience than most new DMs plus you’re playing with your buds. Any rules issues they can help you out with so just focus on having fun!

NEVER BEEN SO PUMPED. I just listened to an old ep where Jake says he thinks he'll DM before 2022 or something and I was like man I hope he still wants to do it sometime. So psyched!
Amanda K.
Awesome! I hope Jake really isn’t afraid to give his NPC’s the backbone to stand up to the undoubtedly wacky PC’s. Firm NPC’s give the story stakes and make the jokes funnier, as opposed to NPC’s who are always agreeable and ignore mistakes.
Peregrine
Not caught up yet… But so excited to eventually hear your ideas and world, Jake!! Love to you all!
