I’m so glad Emily also thought jackalopes were real. Of all the cryptids and fake beasts they really seem like something that could just be out there

KSM101

Super late and I'm just now listening to the 2nd campaign for the first time but having Murph talk about Chad on tony hawk as his favorite makes me smile because he was also my favorite

Susan Gricko

thank you for this

Austin Sharp

I know they’re probably not gonna see this at this point but I raise your Jackalope a “wolpertinger”

Okay this is weird, two years later here I am.. about to start shoveling my driveway, starting with this short rest 😂

Squirrelly Girlie the not very girlie squirrel

I heard him say that and even though I'm from PA I was like "Does Minnesota not exist"

Marni Russell

Emily talking about being alone in the house with her parents after her older siblings left made me laugh out loud because i am the youngest of three and couldnt WAIT for my brothers to leave so i could just live alone with my mom in high school and then neither of them moved out until after i did

For the honor council kind of thing I served on my towns youth court where we held a whole court and judged kids who had committed actual crimes, mostly misdemeanors, such as theft, petty assault, vandalism, etc. And we weren't deciding if they were innocent or guilty we decided their punishment. Which was often like 20 hrs of community service, anger management counseling, family counseling, drug counseling, letters of apology etc. And if they completed it their record would be expunged. It was absolutely wild the power they put in our hands because we were also allowed to give them no punishment if we chose and their records would still be expunged.

Oliver Jasper

I'm listening folding laundry RIGHT NOW!!!

Kyle

Full disclosure, When I pictured Feya digging, It’s never with a shovel it’s like manic Clawing at the earth with your hands…

JigMink

I always thought jackalopes were a mythical interpretation of rabbits with the papillomavirus. WARNING! DO NOT GOOGLE THIS IF YOU"RE EASILY GROSSED OUT!

Resh Cuttael

Being on the Honor Council is the most Beverly thing I’ve ever heard. :)

Flea Bag

My work has a tunalope

Michela Kendrick-Tedesco

I dont know if anyone has mentioned this already, but there IS a DnD version of a jackalope! It's called an Almiraj, and it's a Fey creature. I have one as a pet in my current campaign, her name is Beatrice!

Veronica

LOL! We get snow in Manitoba (and the rest of the Canadian prairies) most years before Halloween :)

1man2hands

Yes, crows can talk in real life

1man2hands

Honor council sounds like some wild bullshit

Jeremy Woods

Hey Murph we actually got a couole feet of snow so far in Donnelly, Idaho

Not Another D&D Podcast

you are the inspiration!!!! It was your comment that I mentioned last week. - Emily

S Koster

I definitely listen to this while doing chores

Brianne Nurse

I don't know for sure if it was my comment that inspired the Choo Choo Crew, but I'm certainly going to believe it was until proven otherwise.

Meredith Pritchard

Up in the Yukon we've got tons of snow. It's a balmy -20°C today

Terran Benedict

Let’s be real here, The Choo Choo Crew is 🔥 Murph’s displeasure reveals his fear of this new band of heroes. Imagine the t-shirts!

Neeork

Murph: I guess I have a very American view of when winter and snow starts Me: Laughs in Minnesotan

Lizzy French

We have snow in Wisconsin already, not sticking by me yet but up by the UP they already got a lot!

Cole Power

We got snow here in Newfoundland!

MilkManMD

I still love The Geaky Blinders

Joshua Heyes

Such a good short rest. Beginning the day with a septic tank removal video killed me

Eric Grochowski

The Mighty Nein is a cool name, but it's origins are probably just as silly. First off, they are a group of 7 people not 9, they just kept rolling so many 9s and since one character has a german accent they would all shout NEIN when someone rolled it.

NoShitSherlock

As an Artificer Aficionado, Murph, listen.....and look at me when I'm typing to you......don't you dare deny my baby boy the absolutely legal and official ability to put a fireball spell into anything that has one of his infusions into it, especially now there might be better options with Tasha's Cauldron of everything buffing Artificers. *smooch* much love.

Cassie Von Behren

It's snowed a few times in Colorado already. First snow was in freaking september. Yay global warming

Villi

No snow in Iceland yet

Kelly Varanay

Murph bringing up the CR party names like vox machina didn't use to be called The Shits and like mighty nein isn't a pun based around them rolling a bunch of nines in a couple episodes

Alex Camden

A Bang Bus shoutout within the first literal minute, when will your fav podcast ever

Andrew Harris

We’ve had snow in northern Utah as well

Snugglegurts

Iowa been shoveling snow also.

Melissa MacDoyle

Northern British Columbia in Canada, we've had snow since late October

Alexander

"Who's shoveling in November?" Minnesota gang chiming in, it's us, we're shoveling.

Brenda Gibbner

I have Libby and love it

seriph16

So if you're looking for a bird that can talk thats not a parrot, look at ravens. Pretty sure there is a type of raven that can talk.

Shannon Harris

I live in southern WY and yep...shoveled already this year. We saw snow in September. The elevation where I am is 7,165ft.

Olivia

CHOO CHOO CREW!! It has to be that

Cavan McGinsie

Same, I couldn't believe they didn't go to that reference! Uncle Joey doing that stupid voice.

ananarama

Yooo I’m the youngest sibling too and my siblings both went off to college when I was in middle school. I agree with Emily it was weird to be the only kid home

Alex Behr

Minnesota had snow back in October this year

Natalie Scott

Us folks in Montana has surprise OCTOBER snow this year. At least in Missoula we did.

BRayne7

Clearly the key to get a silly joke name past Murph is to put it at least partially in another language. Mighty Nein is Big No and/or a reason for every NPC to be confused about them not having nine members. Vox Machina is just a Latin joke about the players being voice actors (to say nothing of the fact that they were the SHITs originally).

Mackenzie Fresquez

Someone may have said this already but there’s snow in Colorado at higher elevations :)

Róbert Fjölnir Birkisson

It was so funny listening to the introduction while actually looking outside my window in Reykjavík and there being absolutely no snow.

Josh Whitehurst

Can we also consider: The Band of Choos

That'sGaboob

Listening to the crew talk about what their Game of Thrones Houses would be reminded me that The Song of Ice and Fire RGP has mechanics for making your House and designing your heraldry

theholmesian

So I work as a landscaper, I listen to the pod at work ALL THE TIME to survive the day, however part of my job is opening and closing graves/cremations, so with that said, if you ever make your way to Western Massachusetts and want to see someone "gravedigging and laughing hysterically in a graveyard... all alone... like a psychopath... I exist....

Becca_rebaker

Them razing murph over the hot plate is so funny. I love it 🤣🤣

Christina Sewell

I'm dieing at Jake saying "Emily! Defend me!" Against Murph! Lmao

Barbie Pootsky

All that talk about Tom Hanks island and not a single Cast Away joke. You dishonor yourselves, Choo Choo Crew

Andy Blake

So there's a pretty cool bar near me in Austin called The Jackalope. Post-covid tour location? Bring it on, come on!

Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord

Multiple options have presented themselves: Choo Choo crew, Poo Poo crew, Boo Boo crew, Clue crew

Robin Greer

I always listen to podcasts while during chores, and this one is my favorite to do chores too! I don't listen to podcasts while digging though because I mostly garden at night so that people from my apartment complex don't get uppity with me, so listening to a podcast isn't very conducive to stealth gardening missions.

Reiko

Minnesota has snow!

Ivy Buck

I was listening to naddpod while shoveling is this just what half the fanbase does while they listen?

Stephano

Sooo.. any idea when the "Crit On Your Homework!" tees are dropping?

Julie V Eckert

Idea for Murph and Emily's house: House Cat, but the art is a opossum.

Elena

I always listen to naddpod while I shovel alpaca poop at my neighbor's farm. Glad to hear there are other shoveling listeners around!

Tega Omene

Spray of sickness is simultaneously the worst and greatest phrase ever spoken

Daniel Stewart

Pls, I beg of you, shout out to the choo crew for this amazing ep

Keith robinson

Immediately when I heard jackalope, I thought of America's funniest home videos from decades ago, where someone would send in videos of the jackalope trying to be caught by people and always getting away. His catch phrase "fast as fast can be, you'll never catch me!". I'm old lol

Samuel Benhardt

Hearing Emily's immediate interest when Caldwell mentions the playable skeleton character was fantastic! A fellow bone appreciator.

Samuel Benhardt

I'm really happy that the gang shouted out Libby and libraries in general. I don't have the attention to sit and read anymore and it was bumming me out until I found a place with free audiobooks! Check on your local library's website to see how to get a library card, many will give you a free one if you live in the county!

Samuel Benhardt

Yes! It is called the Shope papilloma virus and it causes tumors that can look like horns. It only affects certain species of hares and rabbits.

Logenthar

Emily I feel for you, I had two older brothers who moved out before me and it was the most bizarre thing when everyone left!

Jordan Edwards

I listen to podcasts while I do chores too. NADDPOD is my favorite for grocery shopping and cleaning my kitchen.

Arwyn Robinson

This is what I imagine the school council looks like: https://imgur.com/gallery/jcsf4bu

Tasha Quiett

Not in Oslo, but we do have snow in Alaska :)

tacticalgrandma

Pretty bold for House City Pigeon to be talking shit about House Seahorse

tacticalgrandma

I pictured like a Victorian matron, a bigger hairdo & dress- def same energy though!

Haley

Y'all are making my nerdy Librarian ass so proud with the Libby shout out!

Heidi Nehls

Also in Montana! This round of shoveling was over for me but yesterday I did watch my neighbors try to break up the ice by their front step with the wood end of a floor broom.

Wit & Whimsy

@Emily would you consider switching to Bladesinger given the new changes and it does fall in line with the Blade bit

Wit & Whimsy

Lol shout out to you guys as I'm listening to this while doing some chores. Thanks for easing my way into productivity 😊

Slippery Pete

Interesting tidbit, most depictions of Jackelope's are actually more like 'RabiDeers' (Rabbits with deer antlers). Jackrabbits, or Hares, tend to have longer faces, longer back legs, and taller ears and Antelope horns are spiraling cones. Not overly important, obviously, but I think 'Jackelopes' are more impressive looking mythical animals than 'Rabideers'. Confusingly there is an animal called a Antelope Jackrabbit that DOES exist. SO HEY MURPH, which do you imagine the sigil of the Petty King is?

Myka Donati

House Honey Bee! We are families of farmers, merchants, smiths, etc that appoint representatives to speak on each trade's concerns. Our union is strong and keeps us independent from one kingdoms control. "Without the honey bee society won't thrive."

Fig

Does anyone else picture madam Whitlock looking like Ashe from Overwatch? That’s what I always see in my head when she comes up.

Bishop Givens

I would have called the X-Lax spell Banishment (from the bowels) lol

Sarah Sullivan

Emily I literally have been ONLY listening to NADPOD while moving so I also love doing chores while playin a podcast! Great work gang!!

Eagledink

I’m thirsty for murph to womp them for goofing off too much

Edel

There is no snow in oslo :(

Lara

All I’m hearing is school in America is weird :’) how do principals even know parents enough to hate them

Pork Chop

Greetings from Northern Nevada. Snowed here last week.

Leisha Brady

This short rest was an absolute mess, and I loved it 😂😂

Christian A. Jacobsen

No snow in Oslo 😅 But it's snowing at our cabin!

Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord

Fia may not need new clothes but Bukvar needs some new jackets!

Thomas Voit

Glasscannon Podcast is great but Pathfinder.

King Dorkimus The 3rd

I think the Choo-Two Crew is a good interim name but for context I called generic artificer X-lax Tasha's hideous Asspour so nobody should be listening to me.

Laura P

Such sweet summer dwarves not knowing that the Midwest gets snow in November 😂

Jason Matthews

This conversation had me wondering how thier other characters would interact with eachother, would Hardwon get along with Henry, or Nyack or even Zonk...I know Moonshie would get along with everyone cause she's so hospitable.

Garrett Morrow

Or start over :)

Garrett Morrow

Go and listen to Dimension 20!

Jack Morgan E.F. Lavandowska

Minnesota has had snow several times since the end of October ahaha

Ash Hammack

Emily, if you think a jackalope is cute, google "wolpertinger"

Rachel

wow this is a weird feeling. after this episode i'm completely caught up on everything y'all have released since starting to binge in august. what the hell am i supposed to listen to now?

Mouse

can't wait for that good good choo-choo themed merch

Matthew Nardozza

warning, mildly upsetting https://www.nbcnews.com/sciencemain/viral-internet-frankenstein-rabbit-modern-day-jackalope-6C10622178

SoupLightning

Snow in the MN Murph! Respect the Midwest or the ghost of christmas balnor will come and haunt you.

Jake of all Trades

Ravens can speak like parrots

Amber

No snow here, but I do always listen to old episodes of naddpod while doing housework! Thank you choo choo crew for getting me through my chores

Vie.

Snow in Minneapolis

Evan Cordero

This is really funny cuz I'm playing THPS as I'm listening to this

Brother Lagniappe

And now I'm building a shed listening to this podcast! Thanks for the choring company

Gig ⭐️

In Canada we have so so much snow right now lol

Brother Lagniappe

I'm the shoveler! I'm in Montana!

Jay V

i sure did just submit an entire assignment about how the democratic style of teaching (ie that "honour system" style) is good actually most of the time. me wrongs, i guess

Legally Depressed

dont forget, rabbits can get hard tumor like growths on them that can look like horns, which contributed to the myth.

Rachael Essen

Minnesota has snow already! I had to shovel last week 🤣

Zacharey Hand

I have a jackalope tattoo so I guess I'm in a royal family now

Josnak

Love the Choo-Choo Crew!

Prince.3ric

No Ruby Tuesday's in EM???? That's a mistake for sure.

Maxwel Anderson

I was shoveling horse poops in the stalls that night! It takes all types of shovelers.

preston packer

These is a mutation/disease going around wild animals that makes weird growths sprout from their face. There is a photo somewhere of a rabbit with these gross mutant horns growing out of its face. Wonder if tales of jackalopes started with someone spotting one of these!
