D&D Court: Razzing Refs, Misty Mysteries and The Triple Trident Proceedings

I think a character with an int of 1 would be unusable 🤣 isn’t it like a intellect devourer drops your int to 1 so you literally can’t move or do anything?

I've never felt more for a dungeon court convict than I do for the ref. That poor girl tried so hard, and it was so close to being a fun, cute idea. But her joke didn't work, it got awkward, and now she got roasted for it in front of thousands of people. Lol

After listening to this episode I would be delighted to serve the court as science consultant whenever services are needed

Murph not knowing getting Emily’s Billie Eilish reference is peak romance

Confession: I am that person who only orders food at Starbucks. And egg bites are my favorite 🙊

The demon missing his hit and getting awkward was the FUNNIEST BID!! I laughed the hasrdest I’ve laughed in a year.

I don't usually comment but I want to tell you guys to keep laughing! Please laugh as much as you want! Your laughter makes me laugh, this is a comedy show and nothing makes me laugh harder than comedians (and friends) making each other laugh. Hearing each of you start to slightly laugh only to crack and let out a real gut buster absolutely makes my day!

If this is stupid, no one address it, but don’t you get cheese (partially) by removing the water from milk? Like if you leave milk out in a room for too long (someone else, not me) the water would evaporate leaving a chunk of milk (cheese?)

I live in small-town Canada. There is a popular, but unofficial hiking trail here. Theres a dude that lives by the trail and thinks it’s too close to his property, so he chases hikers away with a trident

Emily, I love that you’re sad for the keys that don’t have doors. There’s a lot of us out here that do witchcraft with keys and give them purposes that might not exactly be a door to unlock on this physical world, but the keys get to be important nonetheless.

“Maybe the DM is going through something and needed to laugh.” That was a beautiful statement Caldwell

Easy answer for the demon part. Roll initiative ok demon has first. Roll to hit he does then this cinematic plays out. The looks into you and through you. You feel their gaze caress your soul. As you stand spell bound the demon reaches out one long clawed finger and runs it's nail down your chest. You feel it rend flesh and muscle and all is black. You awaken to your party finding you in the burned out remains of the cultists chamber. You are alive but a long black scar marks your chest and your party can feel an evil aura emanating from it. Your character is cursed. Your chest will start to hurt when the demon is near as your very soul is scared. Option 2 demon misses you say your line and run away.

It seems like the 2 crew really likes Curse of Strahd. I’d love to see another Tomb of Horrors-esk livestream of Castle Ravenloft!!!

I can’t believe caw-cawdwell missed “I swooped her off her feet”

For the pit fight, they could’ve kept it basic mechanics, but made their constitution score their health

I hope caw cauldwell makes it to the main feed

Is anyone else having trouble loading the short rest to this episode? It looks like it's up but never loads.

speaking as a starbucks barista, a shocking number of people come in to just order our food

So funny that, after reading the Google definition of a mist, Murph saying that Milk mist or others would still be technically water. By the definition, any liquid can be a mist, if the droplets are tiny enough.

The comedy night DM situation sounds like they got the idea from that Dungeons and Daddies episode and tried to replicate it... But so so awfully

i just want to share, i often join online sessions with strangers, some of them are actually amazing, players are engaging and fun, DM is great.

guys i think we gotta get a chemist on the pod. next guest justice is just someone who got A's in o-chem.

I am writing this from the safety of my home, 'mistaken tridentity' nearly made me crash my car I was laughing so hard. CAW CAAWWWLDWELL

i love hearing about other people’s online games in a almost petty way that i know i shouldn’t but my online game is how i met my fiancee and someone i consider a brother and my closest friends and then i hear how some people act and im like. cmon now.

I don’t know anything about milk mist but I’m gonna use this as an opportunity to plug the best dessert in the world, Bingsu. It’s shaved ice but the ice is frozen milk instead of water.

air fryers have to create some kind of non water oil mist

Would a milk mist leave behind milk solids? Like you'd have powdered milk after?

re: the three tridents so many things in dnd don't make sense. you're carrying so much stuff all the time. if you want to be "strict" about this shit, the basic explorers bag can contain a max. of 30 pounds, yet the *default pack* contains 54, so if you're going hard-realistic on object carrying, your players wouldn't even get the most basic item. you simply have to suspend your disbelief or dnd does not work as a format

RIP Boiling milk, you will be mist

Amuse my bouche with your magnificent milk mist! I’m surprised precogs didn’t come up

They missed the chance to say so cawcawdered

Strahd's mist form is obviously made from vape juice

Lowly bailiff Dghayqe

Give me a MIST! You got your mist, you got your milk!

We can turn metals into a mist. It's how we coat things before we put them into an electron scanning microscope. So, in conclusion: Magic

They think I'm going to be pissed about milk mist. I'm actually livid. They didn't sing Ocean avenue every time yellow card got brought up.

Create/Destroy water explicitly affects fog, not mist. Open and shut case.

first Jake and Tucker, now Murph and CACAWdwell. NADDPOD is just becoming a real hotspot for getting cucked

Did the 'This is a Headgum podcast" change?

For milk mist cotton candy: evaporated and condensed milk have most of the water removed and form a sticky syrup, similar to melted sugar in a cotton candy machine. So it might be possible depending how the fat and protein in milk handle the heating and cooling that forms the fine strands of cotton candy... It would definitely be possible just using lactose, aka "milk sugar" instead of sucrose, aka regular sugar. I can try making a test batch for science if we really must know.

Genuinely “your friends never think about you… but in a good way!” Is such a wonderfully healing thought to have. “Are they ghosting me cause they’re mad at me” nah dawg they’re busy. It’s all good.

Dang those three tridents would weigh like 12 lbs no way in the first hell is that fighter going to carry that much weight!!! Hurr

cawcalbatraldwell

i work at starbucks. if someone brought a trident in we’d probably act nonchalant about it then talk about you the second you’re out the door

Wow, Jake, that was a really smart question for such a lowly bailiff.

2 hours is insane surely after 5 minutes your social skills kick in and you realize this was a horrible idea...

RE: the "make me laugh case" i think any time a DM is requiring people to step outside the normal mechanics they should in fact give clear instruction and people time to prepare before the next session. Such as: comedy routines, pvp battle royale, an ocean 11's esque heist, a bachelor themed episode, etc. Anything that isnt dice rolling or within the limits of normal role play demands to give people time to prep it. I will say Emily nailed it; the person probably didnt have much prepped and this was them buying time but then it just kept going too long and they had to sit with their consequences.

As a mechanical engineer, I can confirm that throwing a trident wouldn't be any more difficult than throwing a javelin because of aerodynamics. The difficulty of throwing either a javelin or a trident comes from the balance point of either. The aerodynamics of the two would be similar as they are both symmetrical and the drag forces are balanced across each axis.

CAWCAW!!

I've never before been so grateful that my DM is a former marine. The number of times we've talked about "is that reasonable for a character to be able to do?" and he's been like "I've done that as just a regular human person, so yeah."

Referee story person: have your whole party secretly show up with ref shirts and you all throw yellow cards and whistle at the dm. Cast counter-razz!

Brian not understanding mist is truly hilarious. Buddy glossed right over oil being made into a mist and is so fixated on water content i was almost crying from laughter lmao

Hell, you could have metallic mist. That's how welders get chromium poisoning and the like

Before even listening to ep, the bird puns in the description (and specifically the fact that Murph's name doesn't have one) speak volumes to the bit the crew must have been on, to the chagrin of our favorite city pigeon.

I can see the real world logic of why carrying multiple long weapons would be improbable, and it gets easily solved by a free level one homebrew magic item that I was going to give to my players, a magic belt that stashes your weapons on your back like they do in every movie ever.

Day n Night the lowly bailiff seems to free his mind and life.

“You saw my wang? You must die.” Welcome to Wal-Mart!

If the paladin had said "Get in my belly!" to the demon, would the DM have been justified then in his one shot of justice?!?

Was there no punishment for the first case? I'm still listening, but asking immediately because.

In this episode we see the 2 crew reinvent vaping

i feel like everyone moved past the marshmallow mist comment too fast so i just want to say that it would probably be delicious

If the trident case is a gladiator inspired build then the gladiators who used tridents didnt use them as throwing weapons. They would throw a net and then stab entangled opopponent.

Man, the judges didn’t really mention it but like.. what was that cleric’s best case scenario? They one shot Strahd at third level and then what? I haven’t played curse of Strahd, but it seems like Strahd is in fact a very integral part of it

I love "it is harder for a commoner to turn milk into mist" as the new "it is harder for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle". Give me that alliteration babyyyy

🎵Best part of waking up is naddpod in your queue🎵

YOU GOT YOUR HEMP 🙌🏼 YOU GOT YOUR MIST 🙌🏼

Absolutely insane caw-cases this ep

so many of these cases are psychotic lol

I would LOOOOOVE apple juice mist!

YES I LOVE DND COURT FUCK YEAH

I hope these are like auto dropped, and not poor Murph staying up like super late (early? Timezones are hard and I know what time it is here but not there)

Always know its a naddpod drop when its at midnight

Oh my days, the timing!! Just what I needed on a tired Friday morningggggg
