Saying his name is Zonk simply never gets old
Bunny 🩷
Then.. we call Guinness? 😂😂
Invader Jimm
Hearing Murph talking up the Trickster as the one who brought joy to the world is so sweet knowing they are based off Emily.
Dr. Eggman
First relisten and I genuinely forgot they weren't honk fonk zonk from the start
Peregrine
Just started Eldermourne and realized it’s almost exactly 4 years later! 💜
Susan Gricko
Trinyvale and Hot Boy Summer were amazing but dang I missed Murph's DMing. <3
Summer Tribe
Really bailed on that "British accent" in under one word lol
Jeremy Tollefson
I like how Bookvar is just Murph's avatar in the world.
Glenn Dhooge
I just love the Witcher/Gerald of rivia style mosterd identificatie including the choise of either putting the spirit at rest or banishing it
lilly smoke
I did take naddpod to vote lol
Yamaha Hero
I really like Jake's transition between characters. I mean, I loved Hardwon, but it makes me very excited to see what happens with Henry! Great to have Naddpod back in my life!
Carey Compton
Just got back from voting and I'm glad I had you guys to keep me company in line 🥰 Looking forward to following this new campaign!
Katie Watkins
As a chemical engineer I was immediately concerned for Zirk's lab safety (rather lack thereof) 🤣
SallySaturn
Murphy's like a cat, when he knows we want that ep a lil too badly he holds out lol
Michael
So excited you're back folks and such a wonderful first episode. I'm so excited for this new tale, characters and world!
Clayton Davis
I will post this to every episode. Please finish by singing “Don’t fear the Reaper” by Blue Oyster Cult. Along with Henry playing Cowbell
kiarra burd
love that jake had originally planned for hardwon to be really epic but the rolls dictated that he biffed the entire first episode, whereas henry hogfish is just a parallel universe balnor who can't stop critting
Stephanie F
There's hope for ya yet Henry. As a Brown's fan, I say this confidently 🙃🤣.
Evan Cordero
Anyone else see Nadja from What We Do in the Shadows for Fia? It might be the voice but I definitely see her when Emily talks.
Zac.Hellwig
Anyone realize Henry is like Rock Lee? Looks average as hell but is anything but average?
ZZBones
This looks more like a class for Henry Hogfish https://www.dmsguild.com/m/product/184921 The Pugilist!! Old timey punching man 😂😂
Courtney Harris
Omgosh, this was soo good! Eldermourne is right up my ally and I'm loving the witcher vibes. Murph, you've outdone yourself.
Leo Richardson
Amazing star to the campaign. Emily did an amazing job with the score, as always. I would absolutely pay to be able to listen to it after the episode goes up (maybe bandcamp could be an option)
Brian Jones
Btw I did take y'all with me to vote. Listened while I was filling out my mail in ballot here in WA.

It's a surprisingly nice combo! I was a little nervous, but it feels like I'll be able to be whatever my party needs, which is what I love to do! -Emily

whoa that is so impressive!!! Good luck! -Emily

Thank you!! It was very exciting to write themes for the new characters. -Emily
Not Another D&D Podcast
Thank you!!! You know, garage sales, thrift stores, and buying strange vintage furniture from weirdos on craigslist IS ONE OF MY PASSIONS IN LIFE. My house is filled with what I call "magical relics, containing the spirits of all their previous owners" but are, in reality, things someone else was thinking of throwing out. -Emily
Not Another D&D Podcast
oh, also a good song ref. I had thought of broken social scene's "anthems for a seventeen year old girl". -Emily
Not Another D&D Podcast
we love to accompany to the polls!!
Not Another D&D Podcast
oh I love that image, though! I imagine we'll meet all shapes, sizes, and flavors of sprite, so I will hold out hope for them. -Emily

oooh I hadn't thought of that, so fun! -Emily
Andrew Bonkginya
Can i just say I think they mean Glaive for Henry's weapon cause Halberd is like a long axe.
Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord
The banter between Fia and all the books played by Murph will be epic!
Ryder Simpson
Such a good first ep. Good character chemistry, a taste of combat. And with the combat, so poetic that they fought horror aspects of their personal aspects or how they have attributed themselves so far. The zombie (Zirk works in a morgue) the bat swarm (Fia cares for the forest animals) and the shadow (just Henry)
Prizeman
Henry Hogfish gave me real Sam Vimes from Discworld vibes
GJ Squared
I loved hot boy summer, but let me tell you, dropping caldwell twice in the first episode was an amazing start.
Allie Fawcett
Amazing start! 10/10
Dora Štraus
Emily's accent is EVERYTHING, and then the fact that Boginya (boginja) means goddes in some southern slavic languages *chef's kiss*
Benwahah
Jake discovering the boxing aspec. Will have him do literal shadow boxing
Eric Grochowski
The 17 Queen
Rachel
wait you're telling me the sprites are tiny little people, and NOT flying versions of the spirited away soot sprites?
Alyssa Cloutier
Jake Hurwitz hates birds
Dany Ricci
oh my god the fiddle music is back for jake to drink
zach orion miller
Was listening the the EP while in line to vote early. Got to the part about kink shaming strangers you find hog tied
Michelle Navarro
Can't wait to see the fan art!
Des M
Question for Murph, would a changling warlock -genie be able to exist in your world?
Will Day
Oh this episode was so worth the wait. Everyone was in top form. Cant wait for more. One question will any roles of 17 be a shoutout to dancing queens?
Teo Tamashiro-Harris
So wonderful!! I was absolutely blown away by all of it. The music was amazing. The scene descriptions were so wonderful. I love all of the characters and the world so much already!! All of you are so amazing
Shakari
This is so beautifully chilling, a perfect story to start in October. I am loving these new characters so much!
Connor Noonan
I got chills the whole way through. Amazing work to you three beautiful boobs!
socks
what an incredible first episode this atmosphere is everything. also absolutely colin farrell vibes from the henry description
Elizabeth Harris
Right!? My first thought was the bells should dismiss them!
D'ran Dana
Murph did you make an evil Abhorsen?
Vie.
I think youre joking but of not, ligma
Sawyer Rogers
Great episode, but it’s kinda weird how much they laugh right? I think I’ll go post about it on reddit
Jess Little
ALL HAIL FIA, THE 17 QUEEN!
Thunderdave
Such a a fun intro to Eldermourne! I absolutely loved Henry and how much ass he kicked.
Ashley Jamieson
Kinda annoyed that Jake didn't let the sounds of the fiddle wash over him while he was looking through the window but hey, loved the episode and the new setting!
SilentFlux
Reminds me of Nadja from What We Do in the Shadows, and I absolutely love it!
Henry Whittington
Honestly? Ya love to hear it. ♥️
SilentFlux
Love the new characters and the atmosphere of Eldermourne! Eagerly anticipating the Short Rest and Ep. 2!!
Garga Lenoir
The year is 2048. This day the entire world waits with baited breaths for the episode to be released. It is a new campaign! Towns have public listening parties! Millions listen and talk along the venerable words at the same time as soon as it starts : "Welcome to the campaign after the campaign after the campaign..." Where it's night children listen to the new episodes under their covers. "...after the campaign after the campaign after the campaign..." Their parents smile, pretending they don't see them, and listen as well. "...after the campaign after the campaign after the campaign! THIS is not another DnD podcast!"
Caitlyn Dill
What are you looking for exactly?
Vijay Maharaj
My headcanon says it was a Falcon Punch
Benjamin Schwaller
I'm glad Jake only hits animals with his unarmed attacks this season (so far)!
Robert Mukwaodayin
Incredible first episode!!!
Andrey M
I have a feeling that Emily is a closet Bulgarian. That accent is excellent! And sticking to буквар (Bookvar) is obvious evidence... I bet you she loves garage sales too. As a Bulgarian, thats our most telling sign.
Kickassgrandma911
I love everyone and everything about this. Including you, whoever is reading this. You're beautiful.
KeganExe
Emily's music work continues to be fucking excellent!
Santiago Trujillo
Does anyone have a one shot or a campaign I could run via discord or something? I don't have Angie who plays n my online tries all fell through.
JoWade
Henry 1-2 birds. 🤣🤣🤣
JoWade
Damn!! Fia has some good takedown defense!! 🤼♀️
Jordan Edwards
Love this so much!
Des M
Yes Emily!! You are killing the voice!!!
Ash Hammack
Ca-cawfabe! 😂😂😂😂😂
Joe Stevens
Shoutout to the 17 queen
Stephen “can Rage last for four years” C
I hope we get SO MUCH fanart of Henry punching birds out of the air.
joel
Murph's giggly delight when he first heard Tired Caldwell made my day
Mike Cathcart
Syracuse/Upstate fan here! You're welcome to come back anytime!
Lexi
I cannot stop thinking of Henry as the dentist Matthew Perry played in The Whole 9 Yards trying to live his average sad life and then basically getting adopted by crazy friends. I'm already so in love with C2 Eldermourne!!!! All the Bloodbourne/Witcher feels and the wrestling boxer zombies. Just how many times HAS Henry been hogtied LMAO. You guys continue to delight me 🖤 thank you for what was apparently a very late night posting this ... TMNT Mixed Bag coming soon? 😁
vandaXL
I love how all the new characters definitely know how to read and don’t see why that should be a big deal
Mason McCauley
They may be the 2 Crew but Emily is the SEVENTEEN QUEEN
Joe S
Caldwell's sneaky jokes are part of the charm of the show. I totally missed this one.
Julie Desaulniers
Again trying not to laugh out loud at work ;) great start !
Bob C
Also, Caldwell needs more love for "cawcawfabe"
Certainly Not Brent
brilliant! I love the mechanically interesting danger Murph is always serving up! Look forward to voting with y'all
Annie
Sometimes if the episode comes out a little later than usual they will post the SR the next day, so it should be coming out today sometime! Otherwise they are pretty great at letting us know if the SR will be late!
Con
I am incredibly distressed that I relate with Henry a little too well
Adrian Ivashkov
Ah man, where's the short rest? I just joined and those're already one of my favorite bits.
KidChimera
Baldur's Gate AND the beginning of C2?! 2020 is starting to look up
Joe S
I love how all the characters are kind of lower/working class. Henry is just a working class scrub doing dock work at night, Fia lives in a traincar and kind of does odd jobs in the woods and Zirk is an apprentice. They're all lvl 2 but with lvl 0 backstories almost and I am totally here for it. Definitely a change in tone from C1 to keep things fresh.
Aidan Boyle
I think "lance" may have been a slip of the tongue, since they specified that he wanted a two-handed weapon which a lance technically isn't
Maronic27
Henry has a power pole
Joe D’Antonio
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtes
Con
Definitely got big Eugene Levy vibes too. I'm glad I'm not the only one
Jayson Bailey
Looooove the darker tone of C2 definitely feeling the Bloodborne/Witcher vibes
Kathleen
Sooooooo I can't be the only one who got Eugene Levy vibes when Jake was describing Henry, right? "Large, expressive eyebrows" and "salt and pepper hair" ???
Jaydon

Adam Sutton
Two things: 1) Emily saying “THREE RAVENS” made her sound like the Count and I just cannot stress how much I <3 Fia (and the others too of course) 2) This podcast (and its fans) is genuinely my favorite fandom. Errybody is so positive and supportive even when they razz. Thank you Murph for the extra work you probably had to put in to get it out when you did.
Joe S
Yesterday I joked that we didn't see a wrestling match in C1 until about E10, and how long would it take to get one in C2? Answer: 1 Episode. :-D
Tim Dominick
What an amazing episode oh my god
Bob C
Good God i am only 10 minutes in and I already love this. The wet sprites bit...
Olivia
Okay but I’m even more emotionally attached and concerned over the lives of some books???? How dare you
My bond is the week is My mother because name a better Bond than the BOND you have with you mom.. go ahead I'll wait.
I love that Jake's character is just Nathan Fielder
Eagledink
Short rest post today ? (The 16th)
tacticalgrandma
Jake- are you using the standard dnd halberd, instead of a flavored lance like you talked about before? Because Polearm Master is a very fun feat that works with the former!
LochNeassa
I'm so excited! This was a great way to drive to work this morning!
Logenthar
I thought there were no rhymes, how dare they say Zerk at work!
Dr3vvn45ty
Murph trying to be creepy... "Yea the zombies are all in wrestling singlets."
ChloPiercer
Holy shit what a great start.
That Boy Lenin
Yaaas!! Y’all are so great, thanks for the entertainment.
Brendan Wohlers
Damn this was a good sode. Looking forward to campaign 2!!
Myka Donati
"Henry doesn't have anything against birds." Already off to a good start with animals this time lol
Tyler Draehn
BIG HYPE
Shifter
Wow this thicc sode is going to get me through both my workout and grocery shopping. It's about to be a good day.
Scott Harris
Former coroner here.... Coroner conventions exist, and they are genuinely drunk and horny as fuck.
Daniel Soto
Lmao love the end of the boxing match with ravens
1man2hands
I'm sorry but Murph rhymed when talking about not rhyming
1man2hands
Gods I love hearing about nonbinary characters
The Sandreyan
Zombie Wrestlers are my next dnd character for sure (jk already looking up cleric/wizards)
Emily C
YES! I'm running a marathon tomorrow and my playlist isn't long enough. A fresh episode is EXACTLY what I needed to get me though this run.
Rosie
I already adore these characters! A cigar smoking Russian witch gives me joy!
Justin Harris
Can definitely feel the Witcher influence. Stoked af for this!
Darth_Xionn
Beautiful. So excited for this.
Fergus Woods
As someone with the name Fergus you've no idea how HYPE I was to hear the rook gang member with my name. Love all the characters, especially Jake's <3
Eagledink
This is exciting. Perfect for a long drive
