Moonshine already has a timeless body, ohhh!
Caldwell said it best "it's been a while but fuck you man!" Said with love lol
If I Murph You
Origin of the boar prince
“Jake really got screwed with his Melora boon” -Flash forward 3 episodes to him literally almost 1-shotting Thiala with it
2025 and I still learn stuff about frozen 2
Turdis is what I call my brother named Curtis
This is such a good episode. I wanna say though everyone gives Bev a little shit for collecting dad's but not once does anyone give moonshine grief for collecting her butler boys 🤣
It’s probably been said before but the Turdiose (Turdis) could be a combination of tortoise and tardis. So it is a sentient bag of holding, where inside the shell is larger on the inside. Ehhh?
Everyone has a turdus waiting for you… to quote Starwars a Bad Lip Reading; Bushes of Love: Every day I worry all day. About what’s waiting in the bushes of love. ‘Cause something’s waiting in the bushes for us. ‘Cause something’s waiting in the bushes of love… I know you really want someone to hold you; but we all got a Chicken-Duck-Woman-Thing waiting for us.
Question: at 27:54 on the short rest, Jake says that he knew that Old Cob and the others were going to turn on the BoB. So does that mean that none of this was a surprise? They all knew what was going to happen? That would suck if so. I did think it was kind of odd that they just let themselves be separated like that with the force field taken down. Am I reading this wrong? I do really hope that I am. It was a fantastic episode.
It is that he *knew it was coming* in the sense that he had already seen Bev and Moonshine get attacked by their friends in real time, so he knew in the moment that Old Cob and Mawmaw were going to attack him.
I couldn't pronounce my own name when I was younger and called myself "Turtis" for years. That was an incredible extra layer to this episode. "There's a Turtis in your bushes" had me rolling.
I am so sorry to admit I just laughed out loud at your younger self, cruelly.
Man this is my second time listening to this ep and the Melora flashbacks for each one of the boobs still almost made me cry
Listening to you guys and drinking anything at the same time is so dangerous. Almost choked on my water at “sometimes you kick the door open and ya do jazz hands” 🤣
I can't believe we are already at episode 97. I am simultaneously enjoying myself so much and beginning to mourn the end.
It happens again on subsequent listens. So exciting to reach the apex of the story, so hard to let go.
Why did Murph grow up in a teen sitcom ?
Did Murph snort laugh in this? That was adorable
I keep thinking about the door-jazz hands-stab situation and lose my shit dkjskks thank you for this blessing
I can picture young Murph so vividly. His face going from silly jazz hands to “oh shit, my hand!” xD

What we really need is a way to download a catalogue of Patreon posts with well filled out metadata
What. A. Sode.
Um actually, Blinded By The Light is by Manfred Mann... jeez what a turdis moment for Murph
It’s a Springsteen cover. Manfred Mann didn’t write any of their hits.
This episode was cool and all, but “turdis” brought me to actual tears I had to literally pause the podcast because of how hard I was laughing. Thank you Caldwell
About Action Surge, from the PHB: "Starting at 17th level, you can use it twice before a rest, but only once on the same turn." That said, if y'all wanna let our tall dwarf surge twice that freakin rules!
Was just thinking about this, it would be insanely rad to drop 13 attacks in one turn but I bet 9 possible attacks would still make the Dwarf Daddies proud!
Off topic but finding out Akarat is just Adam Driver makes everything so much better.
Murph Red Wedding’d them.
Ahhh finally caught up!!!
Wow. It took around half a year to catch up, and we are so close to the finale! What am I supposed to listen to while I work now..
I wonder whats going on with Olfgar and Alanis
I haven't watched Frozen 2 so I am genuinely being spoiled every time I listen despite the warnings in the captions. When will I learn
Geeze, what an episode! Was in the middle of work accidently shouting " What?? " causing quite a stare from the customers lol.
New stretch goal idea: Caldwell has to grow his hair out back to his his early CH days.
Oof, still haven't mentioned what Paw Paw and Balnor's oaths are!!
But but but Erdan is a hoot.
Hey murph! Did Tulane and Malora ever date before their falling out? like a Princess Bubblegum and Marceline from Adventure time situation?
Tortious
A big rose on Murph's shallow grave for those Hardly Working details! I love Hardly Working so much, and I'm sad we don't hear more about them.
Jake should pretty much use the GWM -5/+10 attack on like every attack now with Reckless attacks. He's got a 30% chance to hit against any AC (his crit chance) per attack now on top of having a +3 weapon and 24 str so his chance to hit against any even well armored opponent is stupid high, even with the -5, and even outside of his crit chance. Almost no reason not to if he will be rolling all of those attacks with advantage.
Depends on the situation. If he's against a lot of heavy hitters (like a lot of birds), he wants to thin them out first. But against only one or two enemy it's absolutely the right move, and it protects Moonshine and Beverly by encouraging the enemy to attack him.
The frozen 2 crew
wow no warning for Frozen II spoilers (lol)??
updated, thank you for catching this, you honor us all
YEEEEEEES
BoB: Daddy Murphy can we have cool things??? Murph, with a monkey claw's finger curling closed: sure, why not.
Oh boy ready for this short rest after such a thicc sode
Of course, the real titans are crabster and turtis
Just finished the episode and needed another hit of naddpod, thanks for feeding the addiction daddy murph.
Perfect timing, just finished the episode.
