Short Rest - Skaldova Ep. 7: The Laboratory

Is The Prestige one of the origin examples of ‘When Did Things Come Out?’ !?!?!?

Specifically because of this episode I went to my library and over the course of months checked out many CDs and burned them to my computer

The Prestige is a brilliant movie, their takes on what it’s about are hilarious

My favorite unexpected boon from Jake DMing is the insights into his appreciation for nature - so wholesome!

idk why but i thought she was going to name the frog "Gerald"

I love when the ep cover is something different. Makes me think "how the hell is Scooby Doo and the gang gunna loop this in now". I would say Emily being in murphs head is like Fight Club

DOOM had exploding barrels lmao

Cackled at Murph being thrown off by Jake's claim RE3 came out in 2009. A full DECADE after the real date of 1999 =D

murph bartering with playstation games to get into an R rated movie is the most shithead murph lore to date, im fucking obsessed LOL

As a library worker, I approve. 👍🏼

Isla Fisher almost died filming the water tank scene in Now You See Me. The trick went wrong and she nearly drowned; she wasn't acting in that scene.

Growing up in the literal Pass of Oaks California (Paso de Robles) as a child I got pelted in the head so often by falling acorns that I had a visceral reaction to the idea of one smacking Welly but it would have been SO funny

Golden Globes announced today that they are adding a Podcast category and this episode is the perfect submission

Thank you for the help with today's NYT crossword clue: "scientist played by David Bowie in 2006's The Prestige" 🤣

Michael Cane Toad

My wife and I play "when did that movie come out" all the time 😂 I feel seen.

11:50 Just seen the new trailer for “Now You See Me: Now You Don’t” November 14, 2025

The failed experiment could have been a failure because of its low hp.

I know I’ve seen the prestige and the illusionist and I, to this day could not tell you which plot was which.

This was my first short rest after years of listening to the main feed and it is everything I could have hoped for.

Doom. Doom was one of the first games with exploding barrels. Pre 3D

Micheal Caine Toad.

I listen to two podcasts, naddpod and Rewatchables. Never before thought I’d ever get a collab episode

Samaras are in fact the type of seed that maples have ! Other trees have them too but maples are the only ones with the sick double-sided ones. Also I share Jake’s memories of sticking them on my nose as a child; my mom showed me how. Shoutout to trees. Also Alvin and the Chipmunks 2: the squeakquel made me so scared of getting a swirlie that it shaped my entire childhood lol

Am I just not seeing the EP. 6 short rest? Miss an update somewhere?

this goes in the short rest hall of fame for sure

I actually loved this. I am a 55 y.o Jake with no idea about games or very many movies. You all are just fun to listen to.

I came here soley for Prestige talk

Since y'all brought it up first pretty please bring back more Twilight Sanctorum soon!

Lol this made me laugh so hard

Murph come on! How would the aliens know that burn means to light on fire?

Apologies in advance. Emily hasn't been here the whole time....

Michael Cane Toad

I can’t wait for the magician one shot as promised ;)

I'm not saying I didn't enjoy it, but I do agree with Murph that this is the single worst episode of the podcast xD

you know the short rest about to be good when there is a random image you have no context for as the thumbnail

Samara are in fact from Maple trees as well as Elm and Ash

The 2 crew needs to watch now you see me 3 when it comes out this year

Not sure if you guys are familiar with the song Bog Body by Viagra Boys but I fell like Boggy would love it!

This was remarkably bad. In the best way possible!

I've spent the last sixth months catching up on all of this show (over 800 eps!), and as someone who rented The Prestige from the library, and loves Now You See Me, this short rest felt like a prize for me

Do a show where you guess releases

I can’t believe I paid to hear this

I think Caldwell needs to know about the Sludgefest edits of the Chipmunks.

Not opposed to yall doing a Mixed Bag centered just on guessing dates of things...

Raccoon City was destroyed the year I was born

Area 51 had a Sega Saturn port with a light gun

I truly love all the plant imagery and usage in Jake’s descriptions.

I also guessed 1995 for Time Crisis. We did, Murph. We did it.

I’m having a Murph-level freak out over here that they were wondering which one of BOGGY’S buds they could use as a pun for a FROG. IT’S FROGGY. And the live action adaptation of his life story WILL be released on dual sided format. 😤

My household plays a fun edition of guess that date with items in our fridge or pantry that may or may not be expired. you pull an item out and housemates guess its expiration date. Some are years expired, some are sneaky fake outs that still have a couple months of life. HIGHLY recommend

Wow! bad one this week gang! Shout out woody harrelson, real life wizard in "now you see me 2," a movie that should have been called "now you don't"

I hate the prestige lol

For anyone who wanted to go back and listen to the woman in the wall/mouse hole it’s the Merry matter metal mayhem part two short rest… I listen to it on road trips. 🤣

All time short rest

I think there are some podcasts that require structure in order to be entertaining. For Naddpod? Nope. Less structure makes it so much more entertaining. The campaigns are incredible but you all could talk about boiling water for 3 hours and I'd be entertained

I love that since Jack is the dm in this, Murph is also an maniac

Hear me out! ...William SHITNER...

I genuinely like these episodes better than the campaign episodes, idk if this is a hot take 😂 I listened to this twice in a row nonstop

I love the chemistry Murph has with himself, and the Chops he has to play Emily Axford AND Caldwell Tanner. I mean, to be able to play three characters at the same time WHILE sometimes having them talk at the same time. The HUGEST of roses 🌹 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

I just wanna say i got when now you see me came out right

Penn Cooper sounds like an on-the-nose chicken farmer npc name!

I truly hate how most computers no longer have a cd/dvd drive included in them. Like I 100% copied every cd I checked out from my library to my home computer and then either made mix CDs or added to my old MP3 player.

Croak’ems

V54rr3😇🙃😇😇,5t?

Yall need to watch now you see me and now you see me 2 for view crew. They are more unhinged and unbearable than you could possibly imagine, perfect candidate

My kids used to play When Did Movies Come Out all the time! I haven't burned a music CD from the library since the 2000's but I used to rip audio books for the kids. This was a very nostalgic episode for me.

Cops use a type of caltrops to force cars to slow down. Also the classic anti-infantry caltrops used to stop tanks. I think of the big ones in Normandy used by Germans to slow down Allied invasion.

Which Patreon tier is for only the When Did Movies Come Out episodes?

The most unhinged short rest since Crabster!!

michael caine played arthur in kingsman so emily was on the money there

As a librarian, we don’t really care if you burn cds! We respect patrons right to privacy and trust that they read our copyright warnings but there is no way we can check if you did that. One of my professors saw someone straight up scanning an entire book with our scanners and she just trusted that they read the sign not to do that and just went about her day. Annywhoooo

I was thinking about Shakespearean sonnets, as you do, and I wanted to launch a defense--not of sonnets because I couldn't give 2 william shits about william's sonnets--but of meter. Shakespearean sonnets are written in iambic pentameter, which means the second syllable of each line is emphasized and there are five pairs of syllables. The opposite of iambic is trochaic, which just means the first syllable is emphasized, like: ` - `- ` - ` - ` - ` "But it's over now, come on and take a bow" The floyd song "another brick in the wall" kicks ass in trochaic: ` - ` - ` - ` - "We don't need no education" (meter of 4) ` - ` - ` - ` - ` - - ` "All in all you're just another brick in the wall" which absolutely rocks because it's like a fuck you to his teachers, strict trochaic until the end where he breaks the rules and the song is better for it, better because he broke those rules

BEGGING for a Prestige / Now You See Me view crew episode 🙏

My favourite part of this ep is the hard cut away from movies at 30:56.

I love Not Another IMDB Podcast

I appreciate you too, Murph.

8 bit book club was just murph screaming at an adventure book alone in a room

For me, the confusing movies are The Prestige and The Illusionist. Released the same year, Edwardian era magicians, haven’t seen either. That said, I watched Now You See Me thinking I was watching one of those two and was very confused because it wasn’t the time period I was expecting 🤷‍♀️

Jake! We absolutely Pinocchio'd with the maple seeds!!! It was indeed hilarious as kids 😂😂😂

the cut air gives this a real manic vibe

I love Now You Precive Me II: The Squeakule. With Michael Cain, Jessie Eisenberg and the Chipmunks

I would absolutely listen to “when did movies come out” I’m always wondering

All time off topic short rest.

This is not the first time I looked up an obscure 2000s cultural reference and a Wikipedia rabbit hole lead to me to a scientology-related page, nor do I think it'll be the last.

12:13 Definitely entered my top 5 funniest NADDPOD moments of all time

This whole episode has the feeling of having stayed up for 48 hours straight with the power of coffee and friendship.

I love the botanical language you use Jake. It really lends to the atmosphere of your descriptions. Maybe I'm biased cause I'm a botanist, if you ever need plant knowledge hit me up lol

Listening to this, kept thinking Ed Norton was in Prestige, but no, he was in another 2006 magician movie, The Illusionist.

The Prestige is one of my favorite movies, the ending is harrowing and the story is told really well

Did they splice it at 30:58 because they went so off the rails? Lol that transition was just too clean. 🤣🥰🤣

I love my off leash puppies

I love the random banters 😭

Murph as a player taking vengeance by trying to derail the short rest 24/7

Goddam this is peak entertainment

I don’t know if anyone mentioned this yet, but fun fact: they actually introduced a twin for Woody Harrelson’s character in Now You See Me 2

This is my favorite episode of N.A.D.D.P.O.D

maple... maple keys those are the helicopter seeds you seek.

I also got CDs from my local library and then transferred the sings to my computer, simpler times…

*sighs* adding Now You See Me to the Naddpod multiverse

They apologize for this ep being nothing, but this is the content of every episode of Jake's podcast with Amir. So

What until they find out about the Illusionist

Who would the chipette version of Jesse Eisenberg??

I think Murph unbuttoned the top 2 buttons on this one 😅 10/10 MORE distracted Murph. Where we're going we don't need rails.

Caldwell, you should check out the older animated Chipmunk specials such as the iconic "Alvin + the Chipmunks: Meet the Wolfman" Unironically filled with some banger songs and quality 8-bit Book Club vibes 💜🐿

Librarian here, we DO have The Prestige (2006) and we DON’T care if you burn CDs in front of us

Hell yeah, loving the off-the-rails Resident Evil content. Still get the shit scared out of me playing those games as a 39-year old.

desperately need another binkie fiasco game show mixed bag ep of guessing movie years that was hilarious

I can not get over Murph not seeing the Prestige. Please I beg you to watch it. For David Bowie, please!

I'm so glad Jake set the precedent of shouting "somebody do something!" At his players when wellie almost died.

RELEASE THE DUAL DISK CUT

This is the short rest material I come for. "Woman in the Wall" after the Trinyvale Sonic game is like my comfort food.

It's a testament to how excellent this campaign is and Jakes DM success that this episode is almost completely off the rails. A++++.

I just started the episode but Murph you HAVE to watch the Prestige omfg

okay but The Prestige is based on a 1995 novel, so maybe Emily was secretly the most right all along?

A deeply inexplicable 46 minutes and 33 seconds of prestige audio content, i loved it

The prestige is one of my favorite movies and I feel like this episode was made for me

woman in the wall, sobe drink pitch improv, and now this-- some of my instantly classic short rests

I knew Michael Caine was in both and I felt so smart

this is the best short rest they’ve ever done

Alfred the chipmunk but then he’s ratatouille-ing Michael Caine

One my my recent virtual dnd sessions did not include a single second of dnd and instead and was just me and my friends guess the heights of random celebrity & dnd characters from actual plays. my fiance who doesn’t watch any dnd shows and was still participating, much like Emily this episode

I can’t believe no one mentioned the proverbial elephant in the room of frog pun names, “froggy rogers” also it’s funny because didn’t Siobhan’s character in fantasy high have a frog named boggy froggy

Moonshine cast Spike Growth during the 2019 Atlanta Live Show. Bev summoned Dairemiah (rhymes with Jeremiah) the dairy cow to help lure the Chosen into the spikes.

Area 51 was also on the Sega Saturn. Me and my sisters used to love playing it, I had no idea it was an actual arcade game until now.

“Swallow the Dark; Become the Omen.” Is maybe the coolest thing I’ve heard in forever.

murph in this short rest is just my brain without my adhd meds and it’s a hilarious off the rails adventure

Exploding barrels that you shoot to damage enemies back to least DOOM (1993) you millennial children.

I wish they would talk more about the episode! I want to hear more from Jake about his first time dming and more about how they created their characters backgrounds and personalities

I am the alien that snorted all of naddpod and now have it all in my mind

I mean this with all the love and respect in my heart but this has been the first time I think where Short Rests are consistently more entertaining than the main ep. That being said, it’s real impressive cause Jake is fucking killing it, I love Skaldova. Shout out to the Big Dawg!

Not gonna lie this short rest is a skip for me. Halfway through. Please try to talk about the episodes more in the future :/

Murph was so unhinged this episode and I am living for it

I just came here to say Michael Cane Toad.

I’m not fully sure what age demographic they actually reach, BUT the show is perfect for me haha. I’m 31, just a bit younger then all of them, so all of these nuts references land perfectly haha

I watched the Prestige a ton as a teen cause I had the DVD, but how did I miss David Bowie??? Also there was another magician movie that came out around the same time with Edward Norton that I'm forgetting the name of. Maybe next short rest they can discuss another 2006 magician movie.

god i love this podcast

The Toadstar

This might be a record for the longest amount of time to start a short rest without mentioning the episode lol. Just a cool 13 minutes of half remembering The Prestige.

This is such an unhinged ep of the short rest I love it

do we need to check the two-dio for carbon monoxide poisoning?

I haven’t listened to the episode or this yet, but seeing The Prestige movie poster, I’m hyped

Sycamore trees have twirly helicopter seeds 😌

You know it’s gonna be a good short rest when the icon is just some random photo

Hello everyone I really enjoyed listening to you all guess movie years, but then I listened to your other content and I could only find Dungeons and Dragons episodes? Is there a different Patreon tier where I can just listen to you guess movie years? I am really only interested in listening to people guess movie years. Thanks in advance

So in the cleave rules you need to make an attack role to hit with the cleave attack. Did you guys homebrew that you don't have to or is it just edited out?

murph is so unbuttoned on these skaldova short rests i love it

I’m curious what the Zu crew got when they lvled up. Lvl 4 is Feats/ASI lvl, did they get new feats?? (D&D 2024 PCs have so many feats)

this is my first short rest i am listening to. i was so confused why the cover was the the prestige lmao

Merch club pitch? Zu crew Caltrop D4s

Emily I do not appreciate my birth year being used as hyperbole for something's old as f***

I love the smash cut from being off topic to on and back again (not literal cut, just the hard transitions)

Murph being insanely chaotic in both the ep and the short rest is weirdly cathartic

I feel seen in this intro

Murph has become the Maniac

Boggy frogger

i also guessed correctly about prestige and i feel so weirdly proud of myself even though all i did was remember that i’ve seen it in theatres when i was a Junior

Oh man, is the prestige gonna be involved in this ep? That's been my favorite movie ever since I first saw it in 2006

Thank you for this gift 🙏

This is one of the more chaotic short tests that we’ve had in a while

Spoilers (minor) for the ep, but Zudric's 'spit on that thing' followed almost immediately by ' boiled :|'

Dripless

Nothing like seeing the cover art for the short rest with zero context

We are so back
