Murph: I completely rewrote my character’s backstory Murph: *proceeds to come up with the most insane backstory*
this voice that Murph does truly makes me laugh so fucking much. im so glad he used it in the minion battle too, it’s hilarious
Calling Hellbiscuit Heckbiscuit also works with the diarrhea backstory in swedish, because heck is pronounced like häck which is slang for butt ahaha
I listened to this episode at a time when I really needed to be distracted and laugh. And boy did I laugh! Just the character introductions alone had me dying. This is definitely going on the list of favorite naddpod episodes. ❤️
my last name being “O’Riley” so the auto parts store has been a bane on my existence in all of my 22 years of life
In Australia we had O-O-Ooo-O'Brien's auto glass repairs. Same tune. I hope it was convergent evolution 😂
O'Reilly autoparts is well known to me, a westcoast gen Z'r
I relisten to this so regularly. Emily is so fucking funny in this! I mean she’s always great, but Cinnamon is my all time favorite character of hers so far, the way he speaks is just so utterly delightful!
this is so specific but cinnamon really reminded me of macy rodman's caitlyn jenner impression which everyone should look up on youtube its killer
The immediate Oh oh oh otari made me ☹️
caldwell's boonta's eve joke at the top of the episode got me good
Crudbert: And the other thing is, my sister had a baby and I took it over after she passed away and the baby lost all its legs and arms and now it's just a stump but I take care of it with my wife and... and it's growing and it's fairly happy... and it's difficult because I'm working a second shift at the factory to put food on the table but all the love that I see in that little guy's face it makes it worth it in the end. True story
I LITERALLY HAD THE SAME THOUGHT! I started speaking in that voice while Crudbert introduced himself. 😂
The absolute poison in Crudbert’s voice as he slowly enunciated, ‘Plat-ti-tude’
Also, Emily was born to play a very old middle aged man.
Nebraska has the auto parts thing lol
This episode is unhinged and I love it
I’ve been listening to this show for 4 years and by god, once you fall into the pattern of constantly listening to this podcast the “make you cry, laughing humor goes away”. But by god I would die for krudberg. Single-handedly the funniest character I’ve heard murph do so far. The dimension 20 goblin can’t even compete. HILARIOUS. I’ve cried laughing so much. MURPH I LOVE YOU PLZ DO MORE KRUDBERG. Your krudberg voice is the highlight of my day ❤️
The orielly auto parts only 2:15 into the episode is killer 🤣
Tell my father I forgive him and I understand 🤣🤣🤣
The spider being damaged by the brine is cool because salt/salt water is poisonous to spiders irl!
This was inspiring I really want to play pathfinder now, also so so so funny. I can’t get over cinnamons voice! The spells sound so fun!
Cinnamon is serving jennifer coolidge
I will start panicking while playing anything and go “oh oh oh” and then out of habit start singing “oreilly, auto parts *ow*” (I’m from Wisconsin, I think it is from everywhere)
I love that Emily has the darkest character-voice out of all of them And Jakes and Murphs being kinda similar xD I love the voices being super special for a short, makes it very memorable! Love it!
I absolutely love this. I love the voices and rhe loose personalities. Please keep this up. Or a longer mini campaign Hot Boy Cultist or something
I really tried to get through this, but I just couldn't. The character voices- Murph's in particular- are honestly just awful to listen to. Sonically the worst podcast episode I've ever tried to listen to.
🙄
The fuckin Oriley Auto Parts SLAYYYS me with flashbacks to getting a heart attack and embolism from how LOUD and sudden their commercials are. I'm in Buffalo, NY btw!!!😊😊
Go Bills!
Krudbert is my heart and soul ❤️💕
Why does crudbir sound like the shrimp from sharktales
Emily killed me with the "my name is Cinnamon" 😆
Finally got around to listening but for medicine you can spend ten minutes to use medicine check to heal people with treat wounds. It can get stupid op when you get feats for it
As a SoCal native under forty. Yes the O’Reillys auto parts reference was enjoyed
holy shit I laughed at every second of this, thank you so much
Only 2 episodes?! We need more of these goofballs
Murph’s voice reminds me of that Shrimp from Sharktale
It was an absolute platitude, dude!
Somehow, I literally cannot imagine Murph doing that voice
This is my fourth listen of this episode in a week. I would love to return to these characters on a semi regular basis!
Need you guys to do a Pathfinder live show in LA so I can hear Murph's Krudbert voice in person
Ngl... v2 pathfinder sounds pretty fun. Hope y'all do even more down the road, or even other systems.
Just coming back to say I’ve listened to this like three times. So so funny. The 2 crew was really onto something with this.
This has got my "plan my own session" mood activated, great stuff!
Jacob Dylan / one headlight was never something i expected knowing would come in to play. .. where were they going without even Knowing the way...
Someone in the background straight up says “yeah!” After Emily says “someone doesn’t what is in here.” 1:35:30
She's saying "Someone doesn't want us in here," to be clear.
there's something very "Walter & Perry" from Home Movies abour Hellbiscuit and Krudbert. I love this energy!
Was that a polyrhythm in the beginning with the theme AND sounds of battle? Cuz that was bonkers
Loved this ep y'all, it was super fun! Pathfinder had some GREAT, hilarious spells and abilities so I'm excited you're finally trying them out. All of you did amazing really diving in with the more chaotic vibes LOL. Looking forward to part 2!
Crudbert for sure honors the cock
I can’t be the only one who thought of Emily’s little one minute orchestral music stuff as Hit Clips. Like she is just cycling through different Hit Clips chips for the music
Yup!!
For what it's worth I'm 25 and from iowa and I've heard the O'Reilly jingle my whole life
Same from Seattle
When Murph is the shrimp from Shark Tale🤣
We gotta call the Pathfinder party the Cinnaminons right??
Loved this! Can't wait til you guys switch to Pathfinder for everything... you also seemed to be having a lot more fun. I want emily to make a "Glamour Rogue" if that can be done :)
Crudbert is such a star!
Murph goes from a rules man to a chaos gremlin when he crosses the DM screen.
IVE BEEN SO EXCITED FOR P2E RAAAAAAAAAAGH
The party relationship is the same as the trinyvale triplets, but instead of Murph's character being the one to impress, it's Emily's turn. I absolutely love it!
Murph is FANTASTIC at being the shrimp in Shark Tale
My husband and I were already singing the O'Reilly song before the episode did. Can confirm - also in Missouri
My two favorite roses are that Hell Biscuit is level 3 and that cinnamon is the Jens Lyndelle of Pathfinder 2.0 is amazing
This made me miss trinyvale.
Murph was born to play this role, but I fear for his vocal health if this became a full campaign.
CINNAMON IS EVERYTHING
Murphs character voice is an inch away from Carl weezer lmaoo I love it
This cracked me up endlessly, which I really needed this week. I am obsessed with the main campaign but i absolutely need more of these shorter ones.
Honestly if this could be a full campaign I think I would die. 11/10.
It's so good to get to hear murph unzip and let his little freak out to run wild all over an ep. Really fun ep, i would listen to you four play anything together.
god I love it when Murph plays a fucked up little freak
Hellbiscuit not getting to say his class or race was hilarious to me, fully pictured him as an little devil the whole time
This was absolutely brilliant! I can't wait for the next part.
I recommend the Pathbuilder app and website for the future. Makes character management and rolling much easier.
Pathbuilder is straight up the best character builder I've used
Cinnamons voice has BIG Pendergreens energy
SO GOOD, 6 seasons and a movie pls
Genuinely havent laughed this hard in a few months
What race is Jake playing?
Until further notice, I am going to assume "Li'l Guy."
Holy crap, this was fantastic! Glad you guys are enjoying Pathfinder 2e! Looking forward to more PF2e 'sodes!
Dear Coastal Elites, O'Reilly Auto Parts operates over 6,000 retail locations across 48 states, Puerto Rico, Mexico, and Canada.
Curse you for getting that Vertical Horizon song stuck in my head.
I was honestly shocked at the pull. Conjured up forgotten childhood memories
We have O’Reily’s in Oregon and Washington, also.
I really like cinnamon. It's an interesting concept for a midlife adult to realize their parent is a horrible villain. Like, how would you deal with that in real life? I suppose just be an upstanding version of a spice merchant?
It’s a fun episode, and I’m happy to hear them try different systems, but personally I’d rather them try going in the other direction than just DND with more crunch. I’d love to hear what they could do with a PBTA game or something fiction-first and rules-light.
Wow, we have O’Reilly Auto Parts in Seattle
Cinnamon is the Jens of this party
But this is ridiculous.
But this is ridiculous..
Long time listener first time caller, love to see the crew take on Pathfinder! Absolutely love the system, love to see some real pros take it on. Yay!
I’ve been waiting for them to play pathfinder since Emily’s deep dive. Ive been playing for about 3 years and I honestly think it’s so fun glad to see it get some shine
Maximum goofs
I feel like this is the goofiest the group has been in a while
That was the funniest “yes and “ opening scene. It is hard to laugh this hard after a day of working out abs! Haha
I loved the music in this and Cinnamon is likely my new favourite Emily character
I can't stop laughing at "Hi, my name is cinnamon."
Can confirm “O…O…O…O’Reillyyyy Autoparts” in Texas too. I actually finished it out loud with Caldwell. Luckily, I’m alone, so no one thinks I’m weird. Except everyone here, but if you’re here, you’re just as weird.
Jake just sounds like Mavid. This also may be because I am listening at 1.5x but I’ll be damned if Twilight Sanctorum isn’t great lol
He does, but I feel like in this one Murph’s character Crudbert is the most similar to Mavid!
they mean everything to me just btw like if we dont see them again *I* am going to be the one sopping wet pathetic with eyes full of kindness
This was wild, I love them so much already
I'm fully onboard for a full campaign in pf2!!!
I'm a big fan of PF2e, but I hope they at least check out Tales of the Valiant after Campaign 3. I don't have much interest in it, given how much DNA it shares with 5e, but I'm curious to hear Murph's thoughts. After that, though? Personally hoping they play some more PF2e, at least enough to get a feel for whether or not it works well for what they'd want it for, ya know?
23 in SoCal and yeah grew up with O’reilly on the radio so if I sang it at school someone would chime in people only wanted to do the yow
Maaan, I’ve been so looking forward to this! I’d almost given up hope that we’d get a pathfinder release but I’m so excited that it’s here! I just ran this for my group too ahah. (If you’re accepting notes and into trying different systems I would go feral for a Call of Cthulhu arc).
My great (great?) uncle or something of that sort was O'reilly of O'Reilly's Auto parts, so hearing the song as a bit in media I love is always jarring
This was amazing! Great new (?) music and ques throughout too!!!
I can't remember where she said it but Emily once said something like she doesn't see herself ever playing a character that isn't a woman because of the stories she wants to tell (it might've been some D20 supplemental material or vids). I'm paraphrasing greatly but either way it's hysterical that the first PC on mic/camera who is a guy is Cinnamon
this is truly how it was meant to be like i love all of emily's pcs so much shes Incredible
Jake is giving Jonny Crickets Pinocchio
That is a great episode! Hope you guys look up more systems in the future, maybe 13th Age or something that is much more friendly to the podcast. Pathfinder is nice and all, but you'll soon realise how slow the game is and how much it interrupts the role-play, if you were to stick to it. I think it's better to just take the things you like to d&d5e, than just play straight mathfinder, because of the design of this sytsem under the hood balanced out all the fun out of ttrpg.
Finished out the episode. Really enjoying the wacky antics. Hope they realize that PF2e's equivalent to D&D 5e's Short Rests is using the Medicine skill to Treat Wounds. Worry that without that pressure release, the lethality will prove way too high. Especially since I don't think they're using Hero Points. Good luck in the second half! Can't wait to hear what people thought in the short rest! Especially with Emily's spell choices; I'm a regular PF2e player, and even I had to stop and look some spells up. Completely forgot Ancient Dust was even a thing!
Being a pathfinder person. A few games a week(still newish tho) super hyped that this is Happening. I honestly believe that after playing everyone will get to see how great pathfinder is. Some might even say better than 5e. Great job everyone. You guys are killing it.
I think the guys would have enjoyed this a lot more if their rolls hadn't sucked so hard.
the math of the system expects you to suck at most of the things you do, so I'd say that was a representative experience.
Utter Chaos Goblins
YES I've been waiting with bated breath for the return of Pathfinder 2e. Y'all are phenomenal
About halfway through and really hoping they realize they can Treat Wounds. Game is so deadly if you don't use non-magical healing!
What a beautiful toxic group dynamic lol. Starting vibes are immaculate
I died laughing at the O'Reilly bit, because I work at their corporate office! O'Reilly started in MO in the 50's, but they're now in 48 states, plus Puerto Rico, Mexico, and Canada!
Speaking as someone who’s played a bit of Pathfinder and have found it ain’t my bag, THIS sesh is very much my BAG! Well done, love the fact everyone brought their weird voices. Such commitment, brava!
Been waiting so long for them to run pathfinder
anytime caldwell dms there’s always a toxic power dynamic within the players, cinnamon is otaris jens
Early 30s Oregonian checking in: oh we got O’Reilly Autoparts 😎
God this was amazing. I've been waiting for a campaign where everybody's character has an insane voice.
Murph getting to be a pathfinder goblin is everything I could have hoped for
Please let this replace Trinyvale!
Awesome episode! Loving the hilarious cantrips. Just curious, as I’m relatively new to pathfinder 2e myself, but have y’all looked at the rules for hero points? Since pathfinder can be pretty challenging without them, I wonder if those might come in handy 😅
I think they're level 2 instead of 1 (probably to balance for only having three players) so I think that will help balance out if they aren't using hero points.
MURPH RETURNS TO FUCKED UP LIL GUY TRADITION
FUCKED UP LITTLE GUY SUPREMACY🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
This episode was great. I'm a big fan of Pathfinder2e and it was a joy to hear y'all revisit the system. Looking forward to part 2 and the short rests.
It was a question about halfway through, after the rat fight, but anyone who is trained in Medicine and has a healer's toolkit can use the Treat Wounds activity! I once played a Barbarian that had really good medicine and could do stuff like that :)
Murph I can't wait till Riz goes through goblin puberty and you bring this voice to D20.
"I think I'm just gonna attack three times" oh yeah I remember my first pathfinder session, good times 😂. For sure it's definitely an adjustment learning to use alternate third actions
Murph and Jake's character voices killed me. I'm so happy to see Cinnamons character growth. I can't wait for part 2
I love this so so much! Such an incredible episode! I need more PF2 and these characters. YES.
Don't have a car (shout-out public transit!) but early 30's from MA and can confirm O'Reilly's jingle lives in heads + hearts still
This was a great episode. Instant classic. I wanna play Pathfinder now
Man, listening to people excitedly explaining their cool abilities in a system they're new to is so fun and it's been a while since I've heard that. Only 50 minutes in but really enjoying this!
I love Murphy's goblin voice SOOOOOO much I need him to talk like this all the time 😂
I brought a goblin in to a campaign of mine and gave him this voice... It's a hard voice.
Minnesota had O’Reilly as well!
Ohio does get OReilly
HELL YEAH
Chiming in as a 27 year old from WV to say that the OReilly Auto Parts jingle is a core childhood memory for me
I haven’t played Pathfinder since I first got introduced to DND 2014 . I’m so happy that they’re doing this. It’ll give me the nostalgia I’ve been wanting.
2e is very different from 1e, much less convoluted. Honestly, trying to go back to 1e to play the video games was super frustrating.
I'm going to assume Emily made either a build of something really similar to a past D&D character to feel the differences, or the most cracked game-shattering creation possible! Either way I hope you all had a blast!
I can't wait for my voice to drop an octave at 39!
WifeWorm is gonna WifeWorm
Oh shit. I thought O'Reilly's Auto parts was a Colorado thing 😅
murph's voice is making me feel insane
I'm really so excited to see how they like the combat an expiration mode a Pathfinder 2E!!!!
I’m currently getting over food poisoning after eating fish, and this is exactly what I needed
im 22 yo from Massachusetts and i heard the o’reilly jingle almost every day for the first 15 years of my life 😀😀
You need to use medicine to treat wounds. Heal spells are for combat only.
Have used them outside of combat while playing a Cleric, but generally only when we were under a big time crunch. Doesn't normally make sense to burn the resources, but sometimes a building is actively threatening to come down and you have to skedaddle!
That medicine take hurt me so bad, medicine is so good in Pathfinder. It's the main way you get hit points back between combats.
Can confirm from texas, O'Reillys theme slaps
Lived on the west coast my whole life. We definitely had the O’Reilly auto parts commercials as well. The joke does indeed HIT!
I would LOVE if campaign 4 was Pathfinder. Some of the magic of campaign 1 was not everyone being squeaky clean on the rules. Makes for some very fun situations. Plus, like, something other than 5e would be fresh
We need more mini campaigns. The group always goes crazy with character creation and make the most enjoyable dynamic. They episodes are the best to go back to!
So excited for this!
I could listen to Krudbert and Hellbiscuit bickering all day. It's so funny
I love how in last week's D&D court Jake scoffed at how ridiculous the name Hard Nut would be and then drops Hell Biscuit on us
PF2!! Yes, finally
This is kinda giving me oops all Mavid energy 😂😂😂
you're so right
I love these three weird little guys, but especially Cinnamon.
Krudbert and Cinnamon forever 🔥🩷🔥
Wooooo!!!! Pathfinder 2E!!! Love this!
I love Krudbert.
Is there an audio issue at around 28 minutes or is it just me?
Not just you; I listened to it on Google Podcasts and the audio is inaudible from about 28:03 to 28:10
We got o’reilly in Utah I go there every now and then
Idk where else to put this but I think the patreon exclusive of this episode on spotify is messed up. No matter what I do it's not possible to listen to it!! I'm just gonna listen on here this week though
Murph giving "my sister had a baby and I took it over after she passed away and the baby lost all its legs and arms and now its just a stump but I take care of it with my wife..."
You guys should really dive into the lore of Golarion! Paizo puts a lot of effort and care into it, and it's so big and diverse there's something for everyone
Kind of doubt they'd ever commit to playing in an established setting someone else owns, just because I could see it creating headaches where merch and the like are concerned. That said, I know nothing.
O'Riley Auto Parts played for a 30 year old in New Jersey. The East feeds.
This was absolutely everything and the feral vibes I’ve been missing since Twilight Sanctorum. Thank you for this beautiful gift
But this is ridiculous.
But this is ridiculous.
when i realized Krudbert literally just showed up from his failed sacrifice i lost it
I’m in Seattle and we also have an O’rielly’s
Please more pathfiner, yall are actually the reason I got into this system. Also I actually lost it when Emily said Cinnamon lmao
This is amazing. And I am absolutely including a human carrying a snake as an NPC in the campaign I'm running.
Hyyyyyyyyyype
I'm so excited for this
I really hope that you guys continue playing Pathfinder 2nd Edition more! I love the 3 action system, and I think you guys will also!!! Not to mention you get to use a lot more of your skills than you do in D&D!!! Thank you guys so much for playing this system!
Hey, as an east coast person under 40, I understand the O'Reilly joke 😭
My first experience listening to Pathfinder! I am super excited!
When he said Otari the first thing I thought was saying it to the O’Reilly’s Auto Parts theme too. So glad someone was on that wave length. Maybe a huge sponsor deal coming outta that.
Ahh! i have been waiting for Pathfinder! It's soo much more interesting than other systems. Can't wait to listen to this.
Anyone else getting Steve-O vibes from Hellbiscuit's voice?
Jake is Steve-O Murph is Tutter from Bear in the Blue House Emily is Kate McKinnons UFO lady
Vertical Horizon reference! My band opened for them in Toronto last year, love that they are still kicking around haha
3 DMs vs Jake sounds fun
I would LOVE to see this crew play through a paizo AP like strength of thousands or fists of the ruby phoenix (with the Caldwell stank thrown on it of course).
As a PF2 nerd, absolutely living for this. Just FYI, if you're trained in Medicine, you *can* Treat Wounds outside of combat. Dunno if anyone is trained in Medicine but it's for more than just stabilization!
This
About 15mins in and listening to the character intros and I want to offer Caldwell and Murph a lozenge and a hot drink for those absolutely knackered voices they chose for the characters. 😅
This came JUST in time as I’ve been experiencing main campaign fatigue and looking for something fresh for a break.
I have been so excited for this!! This beginner adventure is great, it's what got my friends and I into Pathfinder after we left D&D behind
Oh oh oh O’Reilly’s……Auto Parts, (electric guitar)
Is Caldwell from Connecticut? He has big Connecticut energy.
He's from Nashville, TN!
Been waiting since the announcement, one of the things you’ve done I’ve been the most excited for
Maybe I missed it in his intro but what is Hellbiscuit?
I think his intro got lost at 'Diarrhea' because I was just thinking the same thing 😂
i’m only 20 minutes in but murph is giving BIG shrimp-from-shark-tale-who-had-to-look-after-his-sisters-baby-with-no-arms-or-legs-after-she-died energy
This is the most accurate comment I’ve ever read
Oh, my friends and I have played this one!! It was a fun time, excited to see how y'all run it
32 with a car and needed to say the O’Reilly bit got me chuckling
Been waiting a long time for this; love the crew but prefer PF2
Awesome I just ran this with some friends for a PF2E pod, it's so good to see people I love listening to play the same adventure.
Jake 🤝 Murph Fucking up their vocal cords for the bit.
Oh fuck yes Thank you duncle <3
Had my gf guess who each character belonged to, and she got Murph and Jake backwards bc "Krudbert is such a Jake name" and i really have to agree with her lol
YOOOOOO YOU GUYS FINALLY DID THIS. THANK YOU.
Is it not playing for anyone else?
Had to upload a new version, should be working in a sec! ~Caldwell
Gonna be my first pathfinder experience I'm so pumped !
NAPFPOD, lets go!
YESSS
Oooh never seen anyone playing pathfinder yet
LETS GOOOOO! Been refreshing all night for this. Hyped for pathfinder!
Hell yeah! So psyched for the two-shot.
