Short Rest: Gangs of Neo Galaderon - Ep. 12

Man my parents used to smoke cigars and drink champagne in a hot tub occasionally growing up, never thought about it lol

Relistening to this one makes me really hope Emily either has or will one day see the live readings of the star wars films created by the George Lucas Talk Show folks. Besides the fact that they star a bunch of their Dropout/D20 fellows - my fav being Vic Michaelis reading for Sassi Won Kenobi alongside Tony Hale's Qui Gonna need another Gin&Tonic to deal with the sh*t - I am particularly enamoured with the idea that they would be Emily's sole point of contact for star wars once the other tidbits were transferred to the memory vault to which she has lost the key.

sodium is great for curls. and for migraines, Jake.

I'd love to see Jake read The Count of Monte Cristo. Actually, I'd love to know how they all got on with it honestly.

Migraines- ugh, I barf from headaches and anxiety lol 😝. I’m a failed experiment too.

I always throw up from headaches. It gets to like a pain level 4/10 and I get nauseous. And then I feel instantly better Edit: I scrolled through some of the other comments. It’s not migraines for me. I get headaches when dehydrated or low on electrolytes, and I don’t think that’s a migraine thing (but open to being wrong). Just means I need to take better care of myself.

Murph, would you please share your workout routine? The nadpoles yearn for the gains

I think this is proof that Murph is a Costco King, I know the same peanut protein powder he’s talking about

showing emily the phantom menace is one of the worst things murph has ever done lmfao

Two bits of head cannon: 1) When Spectre, Big Mini, and the Hamson sisters get back to the arcade, they discover a new pinball machine. The spring looks like Elmer. The ball looks like Slug. The flippers look like Aux and Atom. If you get the high score, it activates the claw machine next to it. 2) Aux builds Tova (Rover two), and the Killscreens are able to see what’s happening in Neo Galaderon through her connection to the original Rover. Rover knows what’s going on, but nobody in Neo Galaderon understands his beeps and boops, so he just does his best to give the Killscreens a good vantage point during major events.

Poodu

Don't forget, Jake had to learn how to burp. Him not barfing makes total sense

Huh, i actually do take blue salts everyday to fix me. It's called Adderall. Amphetamine salts baby!

Crangar is interesting to Irish ears because it could 100% be an Irish town or village. Crann is Irish for "tree" and Gearr is "short" or "to cut". So Crangar would be "Short Tree, or The Cut Tree". There's a place in Sligo called Cranmore, "An Chrann Mór - The Big Tree", Extra tidbit for Americans, Baltimore is an Irish town and in Irish means "Baile Tí Mhóir - Town of the Big House"

speaking of robot autonomy, i highly recommend the book "a psalm for the wild built" by becky chambers, the story of a tea monk who yearns for the sound of the crickets, and a robot with a really wonderful zest for life

Wait i thought there was a salt trend already with pink Himalayan sea salt and others similar to it for the natural minerals that are bound to them.

I’m suprised no one has mentioned BOVRIL!! it’s a drinkable beef gravy! It is kind of an old people drink I remember it at my nanas house

Murph is criminally wrong about throwing up from headaches. Years ago I had a severe sinus infection that was causing dizziness and acute migraines. I was 100% throwing up from my headaches

I need to have a drinking game out of everytime Caldwell mentions anything Dune related

Just in case Caldwell sees this, they make a cranberry flavored long drink!

Dinosaurs ended... Friends began? And what was Ross? THATS RIGHT, A PALEONTOLOGIST (right? Ive never seen Friends)

I'm getting hemp milk vibes from the follicle fajitas

Murph, if you have runny yogurt you can add chia seeds- it’ll gloop right up

I am all for the salt trend. 🧂

I 100% relate to what Jake is saying about feeling sick in your upper body. I don’t know how to describe it, but it’s almost like the feeling that should be a stomach ache is like in your throat in the head.

Emily should listen to the Blank Check Prequel episodes. They do this bit for dozens of episodes where the prequels are released first and the original trilogy does not exist.

You mentioned “nonsense words” in A Clockwork Orange. They are mostly from Russian. The slang is called Nadsat, which is the Russian suffix for “teen".

I had a stomach ache in 2024 is crazy work

There is an important cell metabolism molecule called NAD, which isn't needed in our diet, but you could go full scam and offer "NADD NAD for your 'nads!"

Just let Jake know he's not the only one who gets headaches then throws up. I did it all the time with my migraines.

Jake migraine reveal is so relatable - go to a neurologist king it will change your life! (Throwing up is in fact a secret migraine symptom)

I can’t believe I got to listen to Short Rest on the anniversary of Dinosaurs. Wow life is good

im listening to this ON the anniversary of the death of the sinclairs 😔

I see they never encountered those really fancy soda's back in the early 2000s that had the "novelty" flavors, once being "thanksgiving gravy" flavor made with "pure cane sugar"

Warm water and dish soap goes into the blender, turn that baby on and let it do its big one. Always works great for me just need to get the ratio right because it’ll suds up A LOT

Would love a book of Murphs Mechanic

The short rests are better than the actual episodes this season, I love it

My bf used to eat a tub of Greek yogurt PER DAY with honey and chocolate chips. That would be his only meal. He now eats meat and vegetables and is definitely much healthier

I'm with Jake on this, that head nausea is killer. I do get stomach aches from time to time, but more often than not it's that sick feeling in my head.

My guts get upset for diarrhea. But my stomach doesn't ever hurt either. I get watery spit and that's how I know im about to puke or my face feels super hot. I also don't know if I eat too much unless I throw up hahaha.

Had to log on to Patreon to say that it sounds like Jake suffers from a migraine disorder. I have migraine and get treatment for it, and thankfully don’t usually get the nausea symptom, but it’s a pretty common symptom of migraine. Just wanted to recommend he get that checked out because he can get treatment for it!

Totally on team Jake here. When I need to vom it's just like I start salivating and feel sorta queesy, but NOT in my stomach. Even when it's from something clearly stomach-related like eating something bad or a bug. The headache is part of it but but more like a separate effect, it's not what's causing the vom

I have had chronic migraines since I was a kid and I have really only vomited from headaches so I stand by my cancelled man

Jake’s description of reading Master & Commander weirdly reminds me of how I felt watching The Wire for the first time.

If Jake likes the Master and Commander books, I’d be curious how he feels about Star Trek? I can’t remember him talking about it. I know he likes lord of the rings but he has always been the boob with less nerdy content exposure. I love Master and Commander and I feel like I like Star Trek the Next Generation for similar reasons.

You're fine Jake. I used to get headaches as a kid that got so bad I'd throw up.

Comment for Jake to speak with a doctor to determine if his headaches are actually migraines. (I used to have the same symptoms.) There's medication that helps!

Bosun short for boatswain. Totally in charge of the deck. In charge of maintenance.

My wife totally hurls when she has a migraine.

Master and Commander: William Gibson but boat

For Jake and Caldwell, two books to enhance your Aubrey Maturin reading. 1. A Sea of Words (dictionary of terms used in the books); 2. Harbors and High Seas (atlas of the novels including diagram of each naval encounter).

Random but important for Caldwell: Kangol Caps are cool again. All the Cool Girls are wearing them

...i knotice the short rest b4 the actual ep

Cleaning a blender couldn’t be easier. My wife and I make smoothies daily. A drop of dish soap and warm water and then you just… blend it and rinse it out. The only scrubbing you MIGHT have to do is just around the underside of the blades. I dunno what Caldwell is talking about or how many crevasses his blender has.

As someone who also read all of the Master and Commander books, I could see there being a very funny Jake-led mixed bag where the crew joylessly discuss the first book and increasingly upset Jake (and me)

Emily's description of Slug's (relative) ineffectiveness against single targets reminds me of Fezzik in The Princess Bride You use different moves!

THERE'S NOTHING WEIRD ABOUT MURPHS GREEK YOGURT CONSUMPTION RATE. I DON'T CONSUME GREEK YOGURT AT A SIMILAR RATE. I'M NOT SENSITIVE ABOUT THIS. Also, you can stir whey or casein protein (prolly other ones too, but the milk dairy based seems to work best) directly into the Greek yogurt. Also, granola and chia seeds for fiber, carbs. Really, you can put anything in there. They can't stop you. Also also, Also, the Two Crew could collab on SALT with former IFBB pro bodybuilder and world record powerlifter Stan "the White Rhino" Efferding. He's been out there being weird about SALT for what feels like 40 years -- aggressively pro SALT in a way that is somewhat grounded in science but feels insane.

And Ross was a dinosaur guy

Someone has to tell Emily about the new star wars racing game which features Sebulba

im happy to hear emily's instinctively put off by the protein trend bc literally what it is is eating disorders and body dysmorphia for men. i promise im just not spouting buzzwords, the way men are being preyed upon with protein marketing and looksmaxxing bullshit is exactly how women are preyed on to wear makeup and buy into diet fads and get plastic surgery

Em. Don’t let them gaslight you. I do the same thing to my hair. 😅😅😅😅

Does Murph know what a migraine is?

Y'all have got to name the airship the Rachael

No joke, while listening to this episode I opened my freezer and discovered I accidentally froze my Greek yogurt

If Neo-Galaderon has muzzle loading gun powder cannons, they better fire drones...plasma drones! With AI!

Wait I throw up from headaches…and I’ve also only recently, in my adulthood, started actually feeling stomach aches…what are they putting in the water in mid-southern CT? Maybe it’s the foxon park.

Week 7 of pleading for Roll Dolls to hit the NADDPOD Shop

As a regular migraine haver, sounds like Jake just has migraines. Especially him describing feeling all like head symptoms when sick that's all migraine baby welcome to the club raise your triptans up

Murph’s “what the fuuck” at 9:36 is is perfect 😂😂

Emily is so right, I love hearing what surprised murph if only because I get to go "what the hell how'd he improvise all that without prep"

Caldwell, we might need another Notes App apology for getting Sebulba and Watto's mixed up...

There’s a thing called crio bru that is cacao you can brew like coffee, it’s really really good imo, marginally less better than coffee and I think less acidic

Murph as a fellow Greek yogurt fanatic, I would try straining your watery yogurt through a cheesecloth!

Bottle brushes are great for blenders, and also cleaning in general

Murph! Just dump your liquid Greek yogurt in the blender and it will thicken right back up. The top shelf of my fridge froze mine, that's how I know.

Great ep for Emily Lore. Saying finding out magic is real but then you keep drinking from a fountain that makes you forget is kind of her real life already, making hippie hair masks.

I regularly make smoothies with an immersion blender. Just put everything in the accompanying beaker (is it called that?) and mix! It's easy to clean by hand, too, if you don't have a dishwasher

Emily’s hair mask is an incredibly normal thing to do they’re just all men

Barfing because of headaches sounds a lot like migraines, especially if the pain disappears afterward. It happens to me sometimes, though I definately barf/get stomache aches other times as well... Not a medical professional btw! My head just hurts sometimes

If Sebulba spoke English, he would sound like Watto 🤷🏿‍♂️

oh no crangar was on the island

Throwing up from a headache usually means it's a migraine.

Crangah the Cape Coddah from the home of cranberries, Plymouth, Mass

Bahumia having two Santa adjacent deities is very funny lol.

Crangar is kind of the ur-Boggy Roger if you think about it. Or I guess I should say, Boggy Roger is a Crangar figure.

LONG LIVE CRANGAR

As a daily smoothie drinker, you need an immersion blender! Everything that gets dirty can go in the dishwasher.

i relate to Jake on the headache/migraine front, but i grew two sets of wisdom teeth & weird extra sinus chambers so i'm assuming it's not good lol

Shout out to Crangar ✊

You guys gave me an intense flashback to myself as a weird 3rd grader making an offer to the universe that I'd take the exchange of having powers at night if I forgot about it in the morning. It's been decades, and any time I don't sleep well, I give a little "Hmmm".

Murph don't freeze Greek yogurt you silly. Also the next food trend is fiber 😜

i’m with jake here a headache can lead me to yak and now i feel like i should get an mri 🫩

Jake needs to be probed in a lab

Same day! Same day!

ALL HAIL CRANGAR

hell yeah!
