Short Rest: Ep. 44: Dwarves vs. Giants vs. Winter Wolves

There's actually not a lot of turnover in the "garbage man" gig - turns out, they tend to get paid well and receive decent benefits!

If caffeine makes it hard for you to sleep, you for sure don't have adhd! Adderall would probably mess you up more than it would help. My college experience was finishing a late-night pot of coffee and going directly to bed. Caffeine doesn't amp me up, it chills me out.

Crazy to listen again in 2026 when Caldwell has two children

"i want a second attack so i can roll more dice" how soon she forgets spike growth my gosh

I was waiting for Emily to ask Murph about the cursed armor "what if I put on the boots, Jake puts on the breast plate and Caldwell puts on the helmet and through the power of friendship they share the curse" lol

But for real.,. Give Boromir a shot.

Life is but a Series of Verbs We Must Accomplish

Spoilers C1 This REALLY sounds like the origin of Emily's desire to have Moonshine wildshape into a Gold Dragon! Plus I think this question about god origins is when Murph starts coming up with the divine hearts

If anyone's reading the comments before listening, be warned that there's a semi-graphic mention of purging (as in the eating disorder symptom) from 5:40-5:52.

I didn’t listen to the last 10 minutes of this before I moved on to the next episode (because of leaving and coming back thinking I had finished this short rest). I am soooo glad I got back to this, the scene from Ace Ventura of Jim Carrey being birthed from the rhino’s butthole was SUCH a memorable scene to little kid me. Absolutely one of my top favorite hilarious movie scenes! I LOVE that you guys talked about Ace Ventura being a cornerstone of inspiration for the Band Of Boobs. 😂

I honestly cannot believe you guys were gonna let evil hurrog kill all the dwarves. Seriously Tohma and the winter wolves had done nothing wrong to y'all and you even fought along side them just a couple episodes ago. It's unbelievable after hearing the description of her and her wolf yall were just gonna let her die. You guys should feel bad haha

I've liked every Dave/David except for one so I relate

You and me both Nathan, you and me both.

I have honest-to-god hated every other Nathan I’ve ever met.

The Boobs still have that horn that summons ghost pirates to fight on their side right?? Or did I make that up!?

That scene in Ace Ventura is a friggin' gem.

Are the Boobs going to raid Bastions pad after this is done, or will the other Gnolls have already cleared it of cool stuff?

i would 100% buy a quilt/decorate plate set/regular ol' poster of NaDDPod NPCs, if y'all are considering more items for the shop, though my Dream Merch is an Apple Scrumper Jersey

“Let Boromir hold the ring” 😂😂😂 I want that shirt!

Adderall has helped my depression more than about any antidepressant. They help together.

Did I miss it or was Balnor not mentioned at all in this episode? If he was it wasnt much #weneedmorebalnor

Thank you for blessing me with this gift Daddy Murph

murph referring to himself as a "manic nightmare boy" like...relatable

Thank you Emily for asking the hard hitting questions (about Caldwell's workout routine)!

Really loved this episode and short rest!! Thank you so much for such an awesome, funny story guys. NADDPOD and IIWY are the best parts of my week for sure.

Not related to the short rest but can we please get some dice sets in the shop?

I'm DM-ing my first campaign (Lost mine of phandelver). I wanna have something in the background. Is it cool if I use your guys music at points?
