I wish more of the naddpod music would be in Spotify.

I know, I was hoping Murph was gonna name the new guy Tucker but oh well. I'm pretty sure the parallels gonna come up though. It has to
SnickerdoodleRogue
I just realized that we never talk about the parallels between Jake in real life and Henry, Jake's got Tucker and Henry's got Carlisle!

So what are Honk Honkfish’s weapons now? Does he have the claws forever now?

Respect your evil NPCs when they try to awkwardly convey their lore! Someone worked very hard on it, and it's just rude to ignore them.

Blood and stone.... sounds familiar... i called it if they turn out to be evil

God damnit!! Fia saying "I go make love to one" to Murphy "murphy bed" joke made me snort laugh and spill coffee all over myself!!
This episode honestly had some really good examples of d&d. The market segment was probably my favorite. Small detail I liked but I thought it was really clever to just have the market yelling out what they were selling to just let the players know. Functionally, it felt like a videogame shopping area with also this fun flavor of some of the shops being poorer quality. Really good dming Zirk sussing out the shady vs quality shops was an interesting and fitting player action. Also I really liked Murph giving his players a newspaper. An effective way of establishing threads of information to have on the back burners of their mind as you quest forward Sorry if this comment is messy, more than anything I just appreciate your guys back and forth, the solid communication between everyone is something to appreciate.

I know it was weeks ago that it happened but the name shank is still so hilarious

I love how mind flayers and spectators are sometimes the pinnacle of a campaign because of their rich lore but in Eldermourne they’re just something that the deep folk have to deal with as they’re racing down a river nbd. Absolutely love the pacing of the storytelling of this campaign. Keep it up y’all!!
morgan
loved this episode! especially w hank acting as the spokesperson for the third mates :) super excited for what comes next!!
Castle
Also, in keeping with the King of Pigeons comment- does anyone else think Caldwell has gotten more gonzo in his decisions since coming back? Not a criticism at all! I just love that you can tell he is enjoying all of this so much!
Castle
Favorite part: when you could tell Murph had had enough playing the blacksmith, "Go away!" and "there is now a sign saying 'closed for lunch'."

Oh, sweet trusting Zirk. Teens are always bad news. Always.

Jake saying “glory to Zelbuldra” to that kids mom was sooo funny to me

To be fair, excluding the Hexbloods arc, we're only actually 15 episodes into the main campaign.

Caldwell is pure chaos unleashed from hell
Courtney F.
"Curiosity is good until you lick something." Words Caldwell will, without a doubt, say to his daughter one day soon! If he hasn't already! 🤣
Eagledink
Caldwell is allergic to good decisions lol

Batilda gives off Nana Kindleaf vibes

“All right, fuck off”...I spit out my coffee! LOVE YOU GUYS!!!

Vomit berry was crazy, but Caldwell was in peak form tonight. The first action of the episode was Zirk licking fire and passing out. In the first four minutes Zirk was knocked out. Then came the entire ‘target practice’ thing. Erlin’s sword was foolish, but there was logic there, there was emotion there...the first 30 minutes of the latest episode is nonstop bananas because Zirk is an incredibly silly person.
sean curry
The vomit berry was way more insane lmao besides some light razzing, the Deepfolk never gave off a shady vibe. I think the most insane Caldwell call was taking Erlin's Plague sword back to Gladeholm.
All Pulp! No Juice!
Which Caldwell choice was more insane - trying to goof a god or going out alone in an unknown city for target practice and then following a group of ruffians into a dark cave. (Keep in mind Zirk could have rested first for four hours then gone out)
Penny Garbo
I love this so much!
Sawyer Rogers
They were at the crick already in the first campaign, and thinking we’re already that far into this campaign makes me sad for the ending, and we’re only on episode 21! Murph is so good at weaving a story and I can’t think of a better cast of people to make his world come alive. Love you guys.
Jack
So much Bev energy this episode lmao I love it
Stoked!
