Shel B Kennas 1st fav sprite girl! Torn between never wanting Skaldova to end and excitement for Duncle + Triplets to return

Still crying over pawpaw reerboxing under hardwons rap.

Using the most difficult monster in the game only to not use the features that make it stand out is an interesting choice. I guess it's a good way to make the monster strong but not require a whole questline just to figure out how to beat it

Genaro Morales

Team turt and I love that they mention Ologies!

Mae B

We had to learn ballroom dancing at my highschool and at least once at all of our dances someone would request the song we learned swing dancing to and everyone would just start swing dancing

TeamTurt y'all

We have a 130lb, 23 year old sulcata. What I can say is that he certainly recognizes us as providers of food and safety. However, tortoises (and turtles) do not have the ability to "love" like humans do. The way that it was described to me was that reptiles do not associate action to emotion. Our tortoise knows us, trusts us, enjoys when we touch his neck, etc. It is difficult not to anthropomorphize his behavior as love, but alas.

I think i’ve found the next iteration of the DK specials... file:///var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments/fc/12/EB9E895D-B4D6-41E4-A0AF-240E4F0CD946/IMG_1810.JPG

Jeff Merrill

What about a Castlevania One-shot?

Stephanie Kocsik

Emily, you gotta keep deep diving into the world of reptiles! Read ‘Stolen World: A Tale of Reptiles, Smugglers, and Skullduggery”!

jon

Please do a trip to mushroom kingdom with Mario to fight Bowser (with Mario kart race). Then Kirby, and then Pokemon etc, eventually leading to the finale where the boobs get invited to compete in the smash bros tournament

Angela Tabachik

Dies Bainore represent tolken?

Tobias

"Why not a worm in the nutcracker? Theres a rat!" So true

The Boobs take on The Nutcracker.

Corey

literally the only reason i still follow this podcast. to behold the completion of MCM.

Tonks

metal city mayhem!!!!!!! yes yes yes please!!

Bob Crossen

The conversation about doing the worm on stage in the middle of a Broadway play reminded me of a friend from college who always joked about having several ways you could earn his "eternal respect." One was staying the night at a friend's house and replacing all the family photos with photos of yourself (this would require premeditation and measuring of photo sizes). Another was rollerskating through a mall until you are physically restrained. I think doing the worm on the Broadway stage during a performance would 100% be on this list.

Brendan Watroba

Yugo kills Retrieval Team 22 for Crickmas???

Lexi

Ahhh yes finish Metal City Mayhem lolol I love any and all 8 Bit Bookclub references. ... The in between move 😂 cracks me up! Maybe one day there could be... BoB in Castlevania!!! I love these BoB returns so much.

Lisquander

I cannot begin to describe the guttural noise that I made when Emily talked about the “in between move” LMFAOO

Allie Gowins

As someone who just came from 8-Bit Book Club the reptile super show is a big pull lmao

Lizzy French

Team Zard, I have a bearded dragon and we used to have a chameleon. 🦎

Bob C

"Wriggle for Christ" made me choke on my noodles.

Her Majesty, Claudette

I'd love to see the Boobs have to do a ridiculously hard fight but have Mee Maw, Leukanis, and Pendergreens there.

Cristian Perez

I pay to be in on these conversations. Best damn money I’ve ever spent.

Johan Gidlöf

I loved the 8-bit book club references. Please watch something stupid with jake and discuss it

Allison Weninger

Lizards are to Emily as horses are to BrendaElizabeth

Vince Mascoli

Please let the next one shot be the BoBs in the world of the Nutcracker

Devynn Hanson

It made me so happy to to hear the boobs again! Thanks!!! Murph you are a treasure and I would love to see Emily’s dance. Seems like something I would do. And both of Jake’s speeches in the episode were amazing and I love how serious Caldwell kept taking it

Charlie Pow

First post but of course Emily listens to oologies. I adore you even more now.

Andrew Gilson

Brian Murphy you are a gift to us all. I’m waiting impatiently for Pawpaw’s EP.

Robin Greer

My aunt did the worm at a wedding once and ended up flashing everyone cause she was wearing a dress

Jomalar

TURTLES CAN LOVE.

Felix

Emily - oh noooooooooooo 😂

Jack Campau

If retrieval team 22 went to Kongo Bongo Island I would absolutely love to see what Jens does. Seems like Caldwell knows plenty of the lore anyway

Asia Aoki

Murph’s “EMILY OH NOOO” in reaction to Emily’s dance story was truly the most wholesome 🥺😭

Whitney Peterson

Sad that high kicks were mentioned in this short rest in regards to the nutcracker but Bev's dancing/single high kick from the beginning of the ep wasn't mentioned as a ripe 🍌. I was DYINGG

Whitney Peterson

I had a vivid flashback to my 5th grade doing ballet (after many years) and my teacher who hated me for being "disruptive" wouldn't let me do the snowflake twirl across the stage which was the most fun part because "I couldn't do it well enough". Also a heads up that there was a filled version of the nutcracker ballet starring Home Alone's own, macaulay culkin, in the role of the nutcracker, which I watched religiously as a child and still have very fond memories for. Might I say, my excitement if you ever did a nutcracker themed one shot, my excitement would be tantamount

Ayn Like Ryan

As a ballerina, this was the best short rest episode I've ever heard! Also Emily, your dance teacher telling you to just "walk across the floor", is more of a bad light on your teacher than on you and your abilities as a dancer.

I Love Not Finishing My Sentences

You HAVE to finish Metal City Mayhem! I need this! Also, you gotta post that live one you did with Zac Oyama. I need it!

Michael Singer

Been listening to the first short rests and was wondering if the most visual moment segment could come back? I’d love to hear :)

tacticalgrandma

I cried laughing during the nutcracker discussion. Also, since the twitch livestreams were mentioned- are those archived anywhere? I know twitch deletes vods fast, but I'd love to rewatch the scrub battle & metal city mayhem (which I'm voting for completing as an adventure book first!)

Abe C

Always so good! People don’t realize the skill required for the worm and the risks with it. While making a dance party video to stay connected with students at the start of quarantine in the spring, I smashed my face against the ground while doing the worm that left me with a trip to the hospital and 3 stitches in my eyebrow.

Adam

I think retrieval team 22 should do a one shot in circuit city!!!

Arwyn Robinson

Every single episode I think Murph is going to forget to introduce Caldwell and I'm always so impressed that he remembers. Also team zard because turtles smell pretty gnarly. You'll be hard pressed to find a stinky lizard. I would 100% pay so much money for a patron tier to watch the zoom call recording of the short rest, and Emily's break dancing transition move really drives this need home.

Damodar

Caldwells Nut Cracker plan reminds me of the time he wanted to do Harambe II.

Devin Awe

I would love a supercut of all of the times they've discussed their funerals.

Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord

Emily, does walking the floor in dance mean on your toes?

Jaydon

Is there a tier of you guys just Shootings the shit

Rachael Essen

I am legit crying at the Nutcracker bit 😂😂😭

Micah Edmonds

Well if y'all do a Sonic One Shot, could you run it with Ben Schwartz?

ananarama

Team turt

Ryan Coogan

Your idea for an RP Metal City Mayhem is so good, I really really hope you end up going ahead with it.

Campbell D

Also started ballet at age 11 and was absolute garbage. Thanking the dance gods my teachers never made me go across the floor on my own!!! Emily, your teacher was just cruel, it’s their fault you’re not currently a professional breakdancer!

Ruth

I’ve never been more compelled to comment before this, but I relate so much to Emily’s dance class experience. I was a pretty accomplished dancer (and performed the nutcracker many times), but in an advanced dance class age 15 surrounded by adults, we had to do cartwheels, which was a skill I’ve just truly never been able to do.. and the teacher made me still walk across the floor attempting to cartwheel while everyone else was actually able to cartwheel.. traumatising tbh

Drew Smith

Emily is the queen of the "Top Rock" breakable move.

Matthew Cheesman

I love you guys so much. I look forward to these short rests every week. You are the best, most ridiculous, most wonderful content creators out there. Thank you.

Madison Pike

All the talk of hopping up on a Broadway stage reminds me of that news story a few years back where a guy hopped up on stage at a Broadway play because he saw a fake electric plug on one of the sets and tried to plug in his iPhone

Sara

My mum has a sulphur crested cockatoo with an expected 50+ year lifespan (he's 7) that I am set to inherit the responsibility for. I don't know that he is capable of love, but he is capable of both affection (he likes to nuzzle and do little kiss-y noises) and breaking fingers if he isn't getting affection.

Cole Wohlfiel

The worm definitely gave strong Nyaack vibes, making me miss trinyvale :,(

Will Day

We are 100% team Zard, kinda a given as snake parents.

Wandering Giant

What a legendary intro to this short rest. Also, Emily has got to play some Lizardfolk for us!

James Marshall

^^^ THIS THO

James Marshall

Turtles are the paladins of the reptile world. By the Light of Bahamut, I will defend their honor until the day I DIE.

Real late to the party, but my version of asparagus: - Bunch of asparagus, cut into 1" chunks - Dash of white wine vinegar - Lemon juice - 2-3 cloves garlic - Sea salt - Black pepper to taste - Red pepper flakes to taste Fry that shit in a pan until you think it's good on a bit of olive oil.

Julie V Eckert

I can 100 percent picture the dance move Emily was doing lol!! In the musical theater club I was in in college our choreographers called them "b-boys"

Broghar The Bugbear

Zards better for DPS and Intimidation :3

Broghar The Bugbear

Imagine murph voicing toad....

Vonvonvon

NEXT YEAR CAN WE GET A MARIO THEMED SMASH-UP. THINK OF ALL THE POSSIBILITIES... BEV BECONING PALS WITH TOAD, HARDWON WRESTLING BOWSER, MOONSHINE HOOKING UP WITH PEACH, BALNOR GETTING SMASHED WITH MARIO, AND LAST BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST PAWPAW RIDING YOSHI!

Josiah Henderson

My girlfriend has been in dance since she was 4, and this episode validated her.

Jonathan Yarberough

Team turt, I will prove they can love

Lauren Carian

Oh my God. It was so refreshing to hear the Boobs again! As far as other adventures for the Boobs go, and this just might be me pandering to Emily, 8Bit and my love of Final Fantasy, but I'd love to see either an FF6 cross over or an FF7 cross over. Like the Boobs going to the Opera house

Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord

Next live show, hoping to see Emily's break move, Caldwell do the worm, Jake rap, and Murph jump into a moving van with a lightsaber.

Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord

Turtles are cool but definitely team zard. There are too many cool lizards.

Nolan Childerhose

These episodes are always delightful, but between the Donkey Kong nostalgia and Emily shouting out Ologies, I was grinning the whole time.

Alex aka Zol Ark

I was honestly hoping they would talk about the time they joked about what would happen if Caldwell put a red DK tie on a gorilla!!! 🦍😩🥺 Times like this I miss 8-bit book club.

Austin Johnson

Everything just goes in circles. A bitter and rejected Zard Donkey Kong becomes the next King K Rool and reignites the cycle of violence he tried to stop. Obviously Zard Donkey Kong needs to break the wheel, like Daenerys, and sweep across Kongo Bongo Island with his dragons.

Diana

Just throwing this out there: Bahumia map v2 featuring Kongo Bongo Island

Jon Whitehead

This comment is for Murph. However, good work everyone! Idea for another one of these: I propose leaning fully into Bloodborne Beast stuff with Donkey Kong turning everything into Zards from the forest. It could be fun, you can even bring back Funky as a Donkey Kong creation.

tonytheoneandonly

No lie I sat down and started working on my Terrarium right at 2:30 when Murph mentioned a Terrarium booth 😅

Linds

This is so random but I just gotta say, my favorite thing to do is read the comments before I listen to the short rests... they’re always so random and make no sense and they brighten my day so much. So thank you to not only the cast (who also always brighten my day), but to all of you who comment

Rylee

I just have to say.. the image of DK’s severed head descending from the ceiling will never leave me. It will be the last thing that flashes behind my eyes before I die, I just know it.

Taylor Kelty

I've taken care of turtles and they know only eat and hate. I would feed them goldfish and the only joy they ever exhibited was holding the fish in its mouth while using its claws to shred away parts of the squirming fish. If there is a hell, it's a turtle paradise.

Emily Lalande

I hate that I know exactly what dance move Emily's doing, because I also tried to learn breakdancing when I was 10 and could only ever do that and one move of balancing on my head

Noah Harrison

We still need to save the mole city!! Where is our mole city oneshot

James Wagner

I’m not a superstitious person but I’m convinced that Henry liking the bills has made them do as well as they have this season it’s great to finally see them doing good

June M

If the Boobs are done with Kongo Bongo then maybe its time for the ultimate challenge: Metal City

As a fellow zard appreciation-but-never-will-own-again who had an iguana as a kid, I have to tell you about this YouTube channel: https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCH18915fTE6yZzKrqdea8RQ I will never get one of these squamates, but I very much enjoy the descriptions of their behavior and the tutorials on building enclosures because something inside me is fundamentally broken. Enjoy!
