I was 'Most likely to lead a revolution'. Haven't led one yet but I'm part of a lot of movements and when the UK govt topples, and Palestine is free, my high school classmates will know about it ✊🏼

Brandon Burgess

Stormlight Archives mentioned!!!

Bryce Peterson

Having heard so many horror stories about high school, I’m happy (in hindsight) I was part of a kinder, more cooperative class. This will make me sound like a psycho, but I still think about the only person (teacher kid) who was truly a shithead with no redeeming qualities.

Madelyn S

Especially messed up because fully the only person in my grade who got into an acting conservatory and I did not win most likely to be famous or most talented (and you can win multiple)

Madelyn S

Late to this one — but I graduated in 2021 and fully got MOST STYLISH MASK WEARER. So that’s what I have to live with

The Seasonal Goblin

Omg "who's rolling hot for me" is my new tradition! Thanks!

Whitney Ahn

And now today, three years later, Emily has now proven she is the Emmy voting body with Zendayas SECOND Emmy for Euphoria

Lilybet Gates

*three years later* YES!!!!

Lilybet Gates

Me toooo

Lilybet Gates

I’m so many years late to this but got the Patreon last week and audibly gasped when Murph said that I am soooo happy to hear my worldbuilding hero is reading my other worldbuilding hero

Rageboots

Probably the general vibe of all the politicking

Cereus Bright

Same! Wheel of Time feels like a deep cut sometimes, but of course Murph is deep in that fantasy lore.

Laney

I am YEARS late to this convo but I wanted to share my high school superlative was "most likely to heckle the second coming"

Dana A

Emily predicting Zendaya's Emmy win is maybe the best part about this episode 😂

Sarah

Wait how was the room inspired by the Way of Kings? I can’t seem to remember anything really similar to that in the book, but it’s been a long time since I read it

Andrew Teoh

Emily’s fish pun with Sole and soul is the best thing I’ve ever heard and no one reacted!

David Guerrero

Wouldn't hooking up with Thiala have lead to a chance of saving the world from her? Like maybe she falls madly in love with Moonshine and renounces her ways lol. Or Moonshine could get close enough to kill her

DC47

All I can say is that if, and that's a big if, they can take down Thiala here, and Hardwon has the killing blow, he should force Thiala to resurrect Gemma to save her own life...then kill her anyway. I mean, we all know what Gillad was willing to do to stop Hardwon, so......

Purpleriho

I feel like getting cosmological is a result of reading anything from Brandon Sanderson. That man and his Cosmere is what any author wishes their world building could ever be.

Eli

Woah its super uncommon to use my name as a throwaway name in a joke but when they were talking about how last night Eli had a hard fall, i legitimately did a double take and I'm still not sure if im concussed or not

Caroline

I ignored the name "Egwene" because I was 100% it was a coincidence, but now that I know that it's NOT, my entire life has been changed

Marge In Charge

Not sure if y’all read these this late after it’s released: will you try to recruit the trolls you released on the pixies in the fey?

Ai

The filet song was definitely my rose for this episode 😂😂

Liam

Honestly I get so excited whenever Murph shouts out a book series I like. Like during Frostwind when he shouted out Mistborn? I couldn't even handle it

Emily Baldock

Stormlight Archives is one of the best fantasy series of all time. The magic system is SO GOOD 😍

inMadness

You know,.. They were talking about receiving the dungeons&dragons films in their PO box. It just reminded me of other campy fantasy flicks that inspire me as a DM. The Last Unicorn was an animated film that paired so well with the second edition vibe and still inspires me today. And oh that soundtrack. You need dubs for your sesh? The Last Unicorn.

G.X. Barnett

...I won best smile

Joshua Qualls

I was waiting for Caldwell to hit us with the “if I just filet here, would you fry with me”

Kerry

CSPAN 💛

tacticalgrandma

Pretty unrelated but I just started listening to 8-bit Book Club and I can connect so many things from there to NADDPOD. One Big Barb isn't nearly as wholesome as One Big Bed though

ShuntStub

I got huge Palanaeum vibes from the meeting chamber. I was so excited to hear Murph confirm it was inspired by the Way of Kings. The Stormlight Archive is one of my favorite series, definitely want to see if it inspires any more of the campaign.

JimJam

Hey dudes if you're reading this, how about "duel pool"?

Marisa

the fact that 3/4 of you were class clown is truly incredible what a beautiful thing

Brendan Meehan

If they defeat Thiala here and now, it'll be taking it down to a normal, two sided conflict again since it's likely the Chosen wouldn't really be much of a force without her. Also, American high schools sound like hell holes.

maxent

The superlatives really got me 😂😂 We didn’t have those at my high school, but my grandma’s favorite bragging point was being voted “best legs.”

Turner Tush

@emily I love don quijote

Dave Johnson

I was thinking along the same lines as Murph that the B.O.B. would have to side with one deity or the other. It's really interesting that they're making it a three way war. Can't wait to see how it progresses. Sadly we won't get any developments for four weeks since we have two weeks of Trinyvale and a week of one of the live sodes coming up
