Short Rest: C3 Ep. 65: Sea Beast

Hearing Murph's love for throwing people off of airships, really makes me understand why he play Maxwell gotch the way he did.

Just listening to this after Cloudward Ho thinking this is the true origin of “no shirt no panties”

Murph: “Piglet’s like red, right?” Me, yelling in my car: “PIGLET IS PINK HES A PIG!” The whole Winnie the Pooh segment had me yelling because that was my shit as a child.

I once had someone shovel my sidewalks, without me asking, and then came back when I got home demanding 20 bucks

Dragon Turtles have like 340 HP. They were like halfway through his HP pool unless Murph nerffed him.

Did I miss something in a short rest where they discussed changing how Cali's defensive flourish works? RAW that's not supposed to be a reaction she can do, it has to be used as part of an attack action and increases her AC for the rest of the round. The part that really confuses me is Emily was doing this correctly at the start of the campaign and something switched somewhere along the way but I don't remeber this ever being directly addressed or discussed.

Wait...Caldwell's full name is Hugh Caldwell Tanner? So we could call him Hughie Tanner and be accurate?

You either die a socialist Piglet, or live long enough to become the boomer Pooh.

"Beavis and Butthead verbage" has got to go into the Naddpod phrasebook hall of fame for sure

PS best battle ever.

Ok someone please tell Emily to read the original Winnie the Pooh books. She will love the philosophical aspects. And the original illustrations are just brilliant. My all time favorite ever book ever ever ever.

As a 28 year old who used to have VHS Winnie the Pooh marathons with my siblings, I needed to know about the Heffalumps and Woozles. Thank you Emily for the spoiler, you've made my day :)

I absolutely love Chrono Cross! Played at least a dozen times through to get all the characters, on a trusty original Playstation. When my og PS1 died, I thought I'd never play again until they remastered for PS4, and I got chills playing it all over again!

I am obsessed with the Winnie the Pooh coversation

Emily loving Chronno Cross got me so excited! That's one of my favorite games right up there with Legend of Dragoon!

Lovable Lumpy launched licentious lullabies like laudable lovers all lactating loosely and lyrically luminating lucidity

Disappointed nobody asked Jake what he thought about Chrono Cross

Based on Murph's enjoyment of knocking things around I'd like to recommend that maybe they would enjoy checking out Draw Steel one day, the MCDM RPG. I also think he'd like their 5e monster book Flee Mortals! Best monster design in 5e by a lot.

CHRONO CROSS !! Oh wow, I cannot imagine what it's like to play CC the first time as an adult. Playing as a kid was confusing, but at least I could just follow the wonder purely. I hope you can too, Emily!! Explore tons, look for recruitable characters, and enjoy the melodrama of alternate fates. ...and maybe check out GameFAQs! It's still the best website for Chrono Cross game guides, and likely for all game guides frankly. And the SOUNDTRACK!! You are in for a huge, huge treat. One of the greats.

You either die a hero, or live long enough to become boomer Pooh

Love how often Murph uses Stone Commander Basalt Von Shale full title. Most kids don't show respect these days!

Loved this ep, little logs

Emily is going to get SO into Pooh if she watches the old movies & specials. It's sweet & twee & literary or punny in ways the characters themselves don't understand.

The Chrono Cross shout out was a soothing balm to my soul, that game is so beyond underrated for the time it came out. And the soundtrack to that game is AMAZING

No spoiler warning for herbivorous Woozles???? Come on guys

My rose for this episode was Sol's awkward conversation with the general after the battle was over. Just haplessly trying to make casual conversation with a giant rock dude 🤣

Holy shit Murph calling back to burying turtles in the mud is such a treat for the fans. We. Are. Feasting.

Lolol to be fair to emily, shroomrot was tortured, but very off screen…

"look it was the 20s! Everyone was talking about Boomer Pooh!"

Don’t know of any other podcast that can seamlessly transition from Winnie the Pooh to over the pants handjobs

Lumpy is a gen z icon

I can't believe that for so long the joke was that jake didn't know the lore of anything and then we get to winnie the pooh and immediately he is fanboying out

Little sad they won't be doing political jazz with the giant lords once the crown is broken but I guess that would be asking a bit much with the episode count. Another fantastic ep.

Winnie the Pooh Mixed Bag would be fantastic 🫡

I gotta try Chrono Cross again. I dropped it maybe halfway?

Can we please talk about boomer frog?!

If the next campaign isn’t Troll doll themed, wherein literally everyone is a Troll doll ima be upset

Winnie the Pooh is one of my hyperfixations so if you do a mixed bag about it I will personally invest at least 100 listens to the episode

Chrono Trigger has some absolutely beautiful music

huge rose to calders exasperated british accent when talking to triss2/liz2/kenna2. i was at work dying hearing that

This one's on me emily. "Making 2 ships kiss then saved by a triss"

Chrono Cross is one of my favorite games of all time. I'm so happy she's playing it. I need updates on her progress.

Have you guys looked into the minion rules from Flee, Mortals? We use them in the campaigns I'm in now and they're a game changer

Yea!

After this podcast and Rhys Ifan’s incredible performance on House of the Dragon I decided to watch Notting Hill. It’s quite a lovely film indeed.

"A mom that doesn't wear clothes and a son that does" = Moonshine and PawPaw

Intros Galore 2024

Emily, if you don’t know Winnie the Pooh you have to read the books, maybe when you’ve got the cold or something, they’re absolutely charming and a staple of childhood imagination. The films are fun & nice but they’re not Real Winnie.

If there's any team to make real hair dnd minis it would be Rick Perry's

I’m legitimately obsessed Murph referenced their obsession with burying turtles.

Real talk, until Kenna supported the plan to get Lazlo, I fully thought Murph was gonna torture those NPCs if Duck team abandoned them to go find a turtle.

emily asking for more distracting minis in d20 in a post-orange top hat world is SO funny and i hope it happens

Another banger episode, hope we get to see more of that courageous frog.

The end of Intro-No-More-2024?!?! After a successful Intro-Free-2023?!? The times, they are a-changing.
