i believe it was simply we got crit on in the year of the double crit lol
Daddy Dekaye
Catching up, do you ever think back to this episode and go, “hmm, COVID happened not long after you asked what’s the worst that could happen making a golden idol of Murph?”
Gilligan Froggert
As a raised Roman Catholic lad, I felt Murph’s panic when Caldwell mentioned melting the gold of the homeland into a false idol.
Dan
The absence of violence is NOT peace! Cheerio! Subscribed for life!
Oliver Jasper
Definitely got a smile of nostalgia from me at the winkle in time reference
Kristina Croes
Love the Yellowcard reference 😂
1man2hands
Griffin Mcelroy does camera directions sometimes, and it works well
1man2hands
Wait are Wrinkle in Time and Ra Ra Riot not good normal references?
1man2hands
"It's dope how bittersweet it is dude"
Michael Singer
Murphy you’re goin ass first in the damn box
Stefan Maroni
I love how The Band of Boobs shit on Yellowcard....meanwhile I still listen to their acoustics. :P $20 bucks Murph was a fan in highschool/
Jeremy Umpleby
I doubt it.
Nicole Jordan
Do we think Luna bent a knee?
Cole Johnson
this final arc is stressing me out, and i love it
rscx
Yes! Wrinkle in Time references!
Alexander J Taylor
I agree with thelovely1withahat, where is Lydia Stormborne!?
Alexander J Taylor
Ren absolutely would not have bent the knee! People do that for him. I would love to see him join the band of boobs against Thiala
JBeev
It’s been awhile since I’ve laughed as hard as I laughed at Caldwell and Murph’s ”golden idol” bit in this Short Rest.
Bea Munro
There are some game masters like Adam Koebel who use stage directions as their preferred method of describing things in-game. It's a bit strange if you aren't used to it, but if you want to do that Caldwell, I doubt anyone would stop you.
foxyfungi
Pendergreens contract will be up before Theala comes back!!
Leo Gabovich
I'd buy NADDPOD whiskey gems!
Robert
Dude, EXCELLENT wrinkle in time ref
Terran Benedict
Murph is a better writer than God. Everyone worship Daddy Murph. Everyone sacrifice a D20 in his name!
Kestrel
Oh SHIT
Lauren M
If you do a time jump, that means it will be past the 30 days of Geas on Pendergreens
Mixxuie
Imma be honest, its been a long time and I don’t remember much for a Wrinkle in Time. But, that image of everyone bouncing the balls in unison? Seared into my small, impressionable child-mind
Emma
I cried tears of joy to hear it’s guaranteed Ren will return.
The black and white horse got mixed up. The White Horse has different interpretations, could be Conquest, but when Pestilence is included, that's who it is. The Black Horse is definitely Famine though. (And Pale is Death and Red is War, but you had those right) I mean, they are whoever you say they are in this context, but if you're talking about the actual real-world symbolism, they got mixed.
Michael McDougall
They may have been too craven to pick a side.
Michael McDougall
But Murph praises Dice Christ, and to solely embrace the madness of the D20 does a disservice to all the work that Daddy Murph puts into the champagne.
Her Majesty, Claudette
I gotta know how Maganis and Coldain are. I feel like Maganis might be a crystal
GREYFOX!!!!!
Murph you are a dm on par and if not better than Brendan!!
jacket22
Fun fact, in philosophy the absence of violence negative peace and the inclusion of social security and justice positive peace.
joel
rose for Murph making roughly 60 rolls in 15 minutes tense, exciting, and novel. I swear his flexibility with the goofs but focus to keep having ‘em throw them dice was a minor miracle
well since pendergreens is currently in charge of hell and bev sr was banished to be with the dusk mother, the chance of that happening is slim
Marisa
my favorite thing on the short rests is when you guys just shower murph in roses and compliments, it’s real cute.
ShezInJapan
also, Bev is gonna come back from summer break, first day of highschool, gonna be a level 20 paladin, basically a lower tier demigod, in a room full of highschool dweebs
ShezInJapan
Emily took me back to 2006 with that naruto ending.
Kestrel
Check the music list on the episode! If something goes terribly terribly wrong, they usually play Valiant Ol’ Cobb
Drew Fitzpatrick
I was getting big World of Ruin vibes from Thelia ascending and the world getting ripped apart.
Gabi H
I yelled, “LUNA” when they started talking about characters they’d like to hear from. So excited about every episode to come!
good Camazotz reference 👌🏼
Adrean Mays
I love the parallels of people bending the knee to Thaila and being sent away and thanos snap in infinity war. All the speculation of who stayed and who didn’t. Also Instead of giving players new magic weapons all the time I like the idea of if their characters start with weapons that are meaningful to them (sword passed down in family stuff like that) you just power it up by seeing wizards or absorbing power from big bads they kill
Tig
The boobs should just say they were training for 30 days straight and demand a 3 level jump
Jenny morash
Here’s a silver lining: every Pebblepot surely bent the knee, and so they’re all dead.
Benjamin Stalnaker
RIP Denny and his entire lineage
Emily
I didn’t know how good this content was (my bad I know) and I’ve started watching Fantasy High and the second I pay off my student loans I’ll be sure supporting ya’ll until the end of time. Seriously, you guys have talent!! Thank you guys for all your hard work!
Barback of Penance
I love RaRaRiot thanks so much for that SUPER DEEP pull bev
All Pulp! No Juice!
There should be a Patreon tier called “The Cult of Murph” we are opposed to Dice Christ and embrace the madness that is a D20.
Thomas Friedlander
Caldwell, was "she played me like a damn fiddle" a Metal Gear reference or is that just wishful thinking on my part?
RJ Schoeneck
I want to know what would have happened if Bev had failed that final death save. If Bev died would Thiala have just brought him back to life herself since she needed him for her plan?
tacticalgrandma
We're officially at the point in this campaign where I have to check the comments section before I click play so I feel like I won't be walking into character death :
Rachel Indelicato
I will buy whiskey gems. Please put them in the shop.
Emily
I’m super excited! I have to say this though: what about Shadowfell? Will Lydia make an appearance? Technically, Thiala represents the Chosen (you know....milk) so..... I wonder if Lydia will send her revenge??? And also; wonder what the other gods of the light think.... could be interesting.... Thank you guys so much for an amazing episode!!
Brandalf The Bae
New Short Rest canon: Murph is a better writer than God himself.
Puck
I know Ra Ra Riot! I got your ref, Caldwell
Ryan Coogan
“He drew a Wilson on a diamond” is my new all-time favourite throwaway joke on this podcast.
Casey White
Every time I see a new episode "Murph better not have fucked with Cob or Paw Paw"
