Today's mood is relistening while recovering from illness and getting so emotional in my foggy brain that I start weeping in my living room
LotPot_HotPot
This episode will never lose its potency. Grade A storytelling with an unprecedented amount of emotional intensity. Balnor is the GOAT
keysi ellle
god damnnit this episode still got me on the re listen...
Glendon Hawke
This episode was quite the tear jerker 😥
Geraint
Murph has made me cry a bunch of times now, such a great episode 💖
Lord Tourk
What song is playing at 78 min? The one when everyone enter the fight
Jens Christian Tvilum
Fuck you, Murph! Damn Ninjas cutting onion!!!!!
James ripple

Stay Awake Games
Bombshell episode! Great job, everyone! <3
ayahiraya
Slighlty disppointed not hearing about Erlin. But heck. That Balinor backstory fucked me right up!!!! Also. I love Alanis now.
Jackson Brown
Well Murph, ya finally did it. You made me cry with Balnor's backstory. Right in the middle of a crowded commuter flight!
Jenny T
I HAVE TO GO TO WORK. HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME TO LISTEN TO THIS AND NOT CRY AT WORK.
Marge In Charge
How excited was murph to finally reveal the horn of Valhalla? Theyve had it a whhhhile
Taylor Schult
With this episode, it's canon that Moonshine is the only one to successfully sock a legendary hero without consequence.
Foster’s Very Confused Veterinarian
I’m only 30 min. in but I had to pop in just to say screw you Murph for making me well up in the middle of the grocery store with Balnor’s backstory (just kidding though I love it)
Patrick Gallagher
I really hope the next monster of the month is the cover of "Ulfgar Goes Punch"!
Mooneye
Im losing my fucking mind how long was Murph sitting on that Balnor backstory!? Its so good!!!!
Joel Weisburger
so amazing. love you guys
Devin Awe
Sorry if it's already been asked and I missed it: will Emily be converting moonshine to use the official GGtR spore druid or does she like the UA version better?
S Koster
Just when I think you guys couldn't possibly make a more feelsy episode... I haven't cried this much in years... dammit Balnor!
Richard F
Alanis's time travel loop gives off a lot of Madoka Magica vibes
Kyle Callow
You guys are telling a f***ing dope story , I cannot give you all enough kudos for how much I am enjoying this! This rip is for Alanis ~
Amy Martin
Alanis kept making me think of Kate McKinnon in Ghostbusters. Another great episode 😍
Frankenjam
Woah. I think the most incredible revelation about this entire episode is that during recording they'd only just received the Warcraft DVD that was used in the mixed bag of holding weeks ago.
Maggie
I made a mistake listening to this at work I almost cried. Thanks daddy murf for getting me invested!
Alex
That was awesome love the story telling
Victor T (Balnor's Boy)
I was so excited to learn more about my bag dad. I didn't expect to literally cry. Absolutely Wtf Murph?!
Kahl Gillispie
Gotta love Murphy, he finally convinced the band of boobs to be reasonable and gets them to stop with everything he disagreed with 😂🤣😂... Party thinks all gnomes are evil: Daddy DM shows a lot of good gnomes that help the band out Party makes fun of Balnor’s backstory: The holy messenger gets rid of WW1 and he creates a heartbreaking, lovely backstory for the holy Bag-Dad And lastly, BoB can’t read and doesn’t want to: Daddy Murphy convinces Moonshine and Hardwon to read a book for once Big Daddy M is womping the party, one goof at a time 😂😂

Does anybody else think the next piece of merch should the children’s book Ulfgar goes punch?

Hersey Park flooded for a few days in July. and if that doesn't sound like a euphemism, I don't know what does.

A Haven Away from Home will always be my favourite track. ❤️

Holy sh*t Murph. Can’t remember the last time I was on such an emotional roller coaster. Absolutely great work:)
Marquisa Zrymiak
But like one of the best episodes ever; don't stop 🙋
Marquisa Zrymiak
I lost track of how many times I almost cried this episode my god Murph calm down
Rylie R
Murph is now the villian in both Balnor's life and mine.
Eric Burant
Definitely just as traumatizing as WWI as an origin story, poor Balnor. I'm sure Ilanis is a good guy, but i'm wondering if she has fully stated all the ways she's corrupted the timeline or otherwise let her creativity get the best of her. Also... Is she really just a chillionaire with all those drugs, or is she burying trauma?
Thomas Friedlander
I loved this episode, but I have one issue with it: why didn't Balnor get any magic stuff from Alanis? This felt like a big Balnor episode, so I wish he would have gotten something like the rest of the BoB.
Nikki Lynn
Balnor! My Heart! Sweet weak dad...
Mell Wallis
I screamed in my car while listening to this. Omg.
Joshua Jacobs
Fuck me up right.
BlurryVizion
OMG Balnor 😭😭😭
Connor Proudfoot
Absolutely loved it. Feels train is real
Olivia Hill
Am I crying at Balnor’s backstory or just chopping onions?
HexMix
Favorite day of the week!
BlurryVizion
Just in time for a long day at work! Yes!!!
Daniel Brick
Halfway through. Well fuck me. I like it

Emily's going wild on that music, I love it.
