Sometimes Jake sounding like Owen Wilson and it's fcking great 🤣🖤

lou seems so different on this podcast and on Three Black Halflings than he does on D20. on that he is so calm and calculating, on the podcasts he seems so energetic and excited

That's two Oscars for Matt and Ben. 1998.

Absolutely!!!

10/10 would buy for so many people

I see CRAVEN!? in bold under a smaller Are you. The more simple, the better.

Maddie

Any chance we can get "Are you craven??" as a merch item? Like I would LOVE that as a mug

Greta Robison

I love that Lou plugs albums he’s been listening to- it’s small but so wholesome

Jesse

The seamlessly edited out-of-context Caldwell clips crack me up so much.

I am LOVING Jabari the Safari!

All this stealth made me realize how valuable Emily's having "pass without trace" was in the first campaign. They snuck through a lot of stuff using that.

Huge rose for Murph as the wannabe king calling Jabari "Jabroni", I had to pause I was laughing so hard! And of course I absolutely love all of the hexbloods' energy, amazing sode!

I of course miss Caldwell but Lou Wilson is doing a great job. Nothing funnier then a high level character basically exploding some poor guards head when a much weaker attack probably would've taken him out. Im glad Lou is taking up Caldwell's tradition of doing ridiculous shit.

Even as a player (and wife) I kept trying to read Murph for if we were behaving too off the rails, but he had a very chill, open demeanor the whole time, so I kept going with it! The guy is unflappable! -Emily

Murph is so good on his toes I guess we gotta keep him there. -Emily

Not Another D&D Podcast

Yes! That's where I heard it on! I love Ologies and am an ologies patron. I subscribed to Neil Pasricha's podcast after that episode, too! -Emily

Not Another D&D Podcast

confusing to not read this as the destiny's child song, but also, bills won again this week! -Emily

Yes! Tarragon / Dragon is not a coincidence! Although learning that about bayleaf makes me wish I made her last name Bayleaf. Especially considering I did not take the poisoner feat, so I didn't need to have a poisonous last name! Although, saying "Snakeroot" in her voice is kind of fun, so I am at peace with what played out. -Emily

Decker Ames

Heh, Murph said Doo-doo

Frankenjam

@NADDPod a question for Emily. Did you get the name Taragon from the old English children's show 'The Herbs' because I'm pretty sure the dragon in that show was called Taragon. Also from memory :- - Parsley was a lion - Bayleaf was a human gardner - There was a snake charmer I'm not sure I remember who that was

RJ

Seriously, came here to say this. We have imprinted on Jabari in our household. 😂

Matt Boggs

I have nothing else to say other than NADDPOD is my favorite thing and I love all of you guys. ❤️

Paul Smith

Rose/Thorn/Bud was also recently featured on the Awesomeology episode of Ologies, my second favorite podcast, so this was as close to a crossover as I'm ever gonna get!

Michael Lawton

Great short rest! Murph, you are a super star DM and podcast editor. You could do a short rest of a short rest, just DM stuff. Love y’all!!

Yes please share those after they come up in game!

Ganonbort

They said last short rest, theyre splicing in out of context send offs from old short rests

Murph, please share the big battle rules you invented! Unless you plan to keep them as a surprise later on...

Jacob Buttarazzi

Okay please tell me Caldwell was just there listening the whole time and chimed in right at the end. I really want that to be true. (But really if I'm wrong let me know)

I got excited when I heard you talking about buds! I started running a home game a few months ago, and we end with roses/thorns/buds. It's great because I can just use their buds to figure out what should happen next session

Austin Wilson

I feel like I’ve heard Jake tell the crew about the concept of a bud, and frame it as something he just recently learned, at least three times.

Rose and Thorn is a classic end of the day summer camp check-in activity, and now that you guys also know bud, I have to tell you there is also one last part, odd leaf! For the weird part of your day(or an episode?). You usually cover this anyways but just thought I'd let you know! Loving this arc so far!!

Gafyn John

The episode reminded me of that episode Davos and Melisandre killed Renly Baratheon except no one killed the would be king with some kind of weird ghost baby 😂. Really enjoyed the episode though and Murph, great job for rolling with it. Also, good job for Emily, Jake and Lou for keeping Murph guessing haha.

Chris

I fuckin love the end of these short rest when we cut to Caldwell taking us out

Turner Tush

Murph you are a Dungeon Grand Master, couldn’t tell it was improvised at all 👏

Debra Wasson

it’s alright Murph once I had a whole attempted assassination mystery arc planned but as soon as the attempted assassination happened my players just decided to leave town

Petition to keep Lou on the show forever. There’s room in the choo choo crew too, Lou!!

Potato Muffin

Hrrrnng. Corbeau. Jabari is trying to sneak in through the side flap and kill the would be king. But Claw is dummy thicc and the clap of Jabari's axe blade is alerting the guards.

Absolutely amazing episode and short rest. Out of interest, how long do you leave it from recording the episode to recording the short rest?

Murph, I’m so excited to find out about these new mechanics you’ve been working on!

Garrett Morrow

Jabari the Safari!

My goal in life is to one day be as excited about something as Lou is to play Jabari. The energy is so infectious and all the characters play off it so well! Been loving this arc. It’s like each episode is a safari of emotions!

Jon Whitehead

If it's any consolation I highly doubt ASOIAF will end even remotely the same as the show.

Ganonbort

Those were Dr. Neville’s ashes used in the ritual last week. I havent finished the episode but i was shocked nobody brought it up last short rest!

James Scott

For the love of God jake... please... I'm begging you... GOT spoiler warnings. I've been a book reader and have been waiting over 20 years, going so far out of my way to avoid spoilers for the books and have managed to do so (imagine the backflips to pull that off). You solely have managed to spoil ASOIAF for me... please just give a warning, I beg of you, I have so little left... my life sucks... let me have some small hope

ocean johnston

caldwell ending the show is so funny to me

Nicole Jordan

Question, we encountered the Prophet Cain already w/Dr. Neville and Hank right? Interesting to seem him here

Nicole Jordan

This would totally had me on the edge of my seat! Honestly couldn’t tell that they were going so far off the rails I assumed the camp was something they were supposed to encounter later on not completely made up on the spot because of how flawlessly Murph improvised!
