Quick Show Updates!
What’s up Murderers!
We need a better name for fans of the show. Holy crap. That was terrible. Anyway:
Just wanted to give you all a quick update on what’s going on with the show, since we’ve been a bit erratic with uploads the last month or so.
We have 2 more episodes recorded, and we’re working furiously on the edit and sound design for them right now!
We have several more recording sessions actually planned and in people’s calendars!
Things should be calming down a bit now that summer travel is winding down.
Our apologies, of course, that things have been… not ideal… with releases. We love the show just as much as you do, and really want to get to a point where we’re 100% regular with our releases. Ew. But as we work up to that point (sadly, it’ll involve advertising on the main feed, but not here on Patreon!) things may still slip occasionally, as we work this show around all of our other commitments (there are 6 of us! We’re busy!)
The other update is a more exciting one! Our behind-the-scenes podcast: Coffin Talk will be launching in the next couple of weeks. Patrons get exclusive access to it! No one else will ever be able to hear it!
But along with that, we have questions: What would you like us to talk about? Our first several episodes are pretty ramble-y, ngl. And we’d like them to be a bit more focused, and give you more value. So yeah:
What would you like us to talk about?
Should we come up with some kind of question form where you can submit Coffin Talk questions?
Should we make Setting Ethan Up On Dates a recurring segment of that show?
We love you all so much. We’re so excited to get to chat with you more here! Viva Murder (geez, we really need to work on this.)

Loving the show so far! Two things I want to know more about are Ethan and Hope Vandermiden (I haven’t taken the time to learn how to spell their last name, sorry)! I haven’t heard of them before and from I gather they’re both young (and partially single lol) but I wonder how y’all got introduced to each other. I think just learning more about the players and how this crazy wonderful show was born would be great. Thanks for everything you guys do! :)
Stick and the Walkmans is both a reference to the show as well as you know a Walkman. Could be adapted to Milton and the Walkmans. Murder Milton Masses. Stacey's hoard The murderered
First, thank you so much to everyone on the podcast. I appreciate the time and effort you all put into this project. Second, I would like to suggest Pram Fam as the Patreon name. The Pram feels like a 7th character. I would thoroughly enjoy stowing away in the Pram with the butterknife brigands! (also my second suggestion for the Patreon name)
Pram Fam is brilliant 😂
This is fun and silly. And totally my jam. I’m in. I literally spent my senior prom in a very fancy dress and too much makeup playing dnd at a friend’s house and ignoring prom so why not see where this goes? I’m way more comfortable now than then so there’s that. Well, anyway….it’s dnd and we should be named something dumb. Because that’s a tradition. And traditions should be upheld for no reason other than why the hell not. So names… something like Wyld Stallions but more creative and less of an IP. Like the Murdering Marauders. Or the Society of Funeral Arrangers. Or just plain dumb names like Plan D or Bards and Crafts. Then there’s group names: The Killers' Klub, Slaughter Squad, Murderous Mayhem Makers, The Grim Reapers. Where are the pun people? Like come on. Y’all are smarter than me I’m sure. Dazed and Confused is taken. All I got is Lost and Unsure lol. Crust No One? Nacho Ordinary Murderers? I’m grasping at straws here. lol I don’t mind being called a murderer. I’ve been called worse, and with way more creativity. I always give extra points for that. But, I’m sure we can come up with something. ???
Sounds like people just want a dating segment of coffin talk.
Personally I'd like something more cute/adorable for a fan name. But how do we make Murder *cute* 🤔 I like the idea of a form for us to submit questions. Would it be open to everyone on Patreon, everyone outside of Patreon? One question I have is for the players who have played D&D before, what got them into it? And a follow up question, how did you convince the first time players to join the audition(?) campaign. More questions to come when I think of them 📝
1. I'm totally comfortable with referring to myself as a Murderer. it's an excellent cover up! 2. Honestly, the lack of being able to stay on time almost makes it feel more like every D&D campaign I've ever been in on and/or have talked about. Scheduling conflicts are a continued joke for all campaigners, so I say aim for on time but feel free to crack a joke for whenever that doesn't happen lol. 3. I second asking questions that could be answered in character! I follow CT pretty heavily as is, so I'm happy to get my pop culture fix from there. It would just be fun to explore the characters a little more. In general, I'm just soooo happy to be here (read in a terrible impersonation of Hope's standard intro for best effect)!
I mean, I'd go on a date with Ethan 😁
Lol lmao coffin talk. Incredibly name. I think it could be fun to ask light hearted advice from the characters
Topics? Honestly, anything. Hearing all y'all rambling is its own form of entertainment, though if you want somewhere to start that isn't just discussing the episode, maybe y'all could talk about what sorts of books, TV shows, video games, etc that you've been enjoying lately I would love to be able to ask questions! I mean, those dates ain't gonna set themselves up 😜
I so agree asking question would be fun and interesting rabbit holes
