Ep. 100: Heart of the World (The Chosen Saga) (PART I OF II)

HARDWON THE UNDYING!!!!

Lovely string of plosives at 50:35 Also jake doesn't get enough credit damn it

Listening to this again, nothing is funnier to me than listening to this classy AF druid "and then all of the elephants are going to go"

Murph’s narration around an hour in is world. class. 🫰

Did they ever go back to liberate the Mole city? Future one shot?

Release the letter! Pretty please?

And to think… it all started with Hardwon drinking in the fiddle

"You're all young, you think you have all the answers-" "No actually I think that we don't have any of the answers and neither do you." What a privilege to follow such an immense, powerful story, so much so that I can come back to this finale and feel like I'm here for the first time.

"Do you guys think the gods were scared when people looked to them?" is an absolutely insane line.

holy shit I am finally here. pop some popcorn in this is my first time listening to this finale and im SO excited (and sad)

Props to Caldwell for getting through his whole inspiring speech without crying. When they eventually film the “haunted boy alone in an abandoned church” scene, he’ll be ready.

The quality of Murph's narrations in the flashback sequences is so incredibly well done! The stream-of-consciousness style, his use of inflection in just the right places... Just a brilliant display of (seemingly effortless) mastery. Bev's battle hymn gave me actual chills. Second listen, twice as moving.

I used to think that the crits hardwon achieved in the finale was insane, until the finale of my campaign where my Barbarian player got north of 20 nat 20s. The heaviest hitters show up

You are an amazing DM!!!!!!! I absolutely love how all you guys actually get into and act in this campaign. I get sucked up into your words and I can literally see what you are all saying and doing!! I can’t wait to see what happens in the next campaign.

Thiala should have shown the side effects of "highs" like children starving, families crying over corpses of the people the party have killed, towns unable to bounce from the destruction of adventures. might have convinced them more

i cant believe they missed the opportunity to title this episode “one big bad”

My first listen to this series helped me through a really rough time (it seriously made me manage going to work in a super toxic office, meaning I did 8 hours Naddpod a day every Monday - Friday for two months). It not only shut out all the bad mouthing but even managed to get my spirits up. As life was getting rough again a few years later I turned to the longevity of a 100 episode pod I already knew I loved (did you know c1 is approximately the same length as 12 full audiobooks?) THIS time with a patreonsub and all the short rests and you guys got me through this roughpatch too, also with my spirits high and with as many laughs as the first time. I do think Moonshine, Hardwon, Bev and the rest of bahumia are my true comfort characters and comfort media and I will probably re-listen when I need it. It’s such a bittersweet feeling hearing the end again of an incredible story, while knowing I can always come back and you already have new stuff out. Thank you for creating such a wonderful world, and a fun and chaotic heartfelt story to share with us. Even people in this world needs the titans of bahumia. So again, thank you for sharing this with us. Now I’m off to binge C3 as life starts to suck a little less. - Mia

This is my 3rd time listening to this campaign and I cried again! Thank you to this crew for creating such a beautiful story ❤️

You posted this on my birthday thank you for an awesome gift and I cried like a baby by the way lol

I cry every time I listen to the One Big Bed song. I'm so sad it's over, but I'm so happy with how it ended

God, chill touch was fucking INSPIRED

Were Emily and Murph recording in different rooms?

"I know what I'm doing is wrong" is not something I would ever expect a villain to say that was dope

No Brian, one hour is not taking your time!

Ryan's Big Day turned out a bit longer than it was supposed to huh

Amazing. Thanks for entertaining us all for what? 2 dang years? You all are special and talented, and the characters you brought to life in this campaign are proof of that. Thank you for sharing your imaginary world of goofs with us all. I look forward to campaign 2, but for now, I must continue to mourn the end of this one.

Jake's casual "so that is.. 297 damage" on the first attack against Thiala made my jaw drop to the floor. Holy hell

The live got me sobbing multiple times, but I am so grateful for all eneterainment. This campaign was truly great and overall just fun. Thank you!!

Can we please please get a 1 shot of balnor saving his village?!?!

This show has gotten me through work, my bout of Covid and other shenanigans. Im not ready for this at all

A HUGH Thanks to Daddy Murph and the Band of Boobs. My wife and I have been listening since near the beginning of this awesome journey and for it to come to an end is a bit heart breaking. We can't wait for campaign 2. You have forever fans now.

Oh sweet P im not ready...here we go :hits play:

Havnt listened yet... scared too. dont wanna start crying in the middle of work or something.

Jake shouting out us Aussies day time hanging was 😘💕

I can’t fuckin’ BELIEVE I FELL ASLEEP DURING THE FIRST HALF HOUR OF THE LIVE STREAM. Stupid work making me so tired. 😭

Thank you for today. This was amazing and such a beautifully chaotic respite from the world today. If only we had Moonshine, Hardwon, Beverly, Balnor and Paw-Paw here in the real world...

Thanks Murph! I only caught the end of the twitch stream.

This. is. the. Best! Can't express enough gratitude to y'all.

I’m so excited!! Can’t wait for the next season!! 😄😄

Thank you all! I cried a ton and feel so impacted by the story you made together 💕 I can’t wait for the next one! P.S. really glad Rian showed up at the very last second to save the Boobs from certain death. Definitely my favorite moment of the entire show

Can't wait for both parts to be uploaded! I stopped listening to the live stream, because it kept freezing on my app even after a reset.... So I never got to finish it 😓

Thank you all for a great night!! Enjoy your well-deserved shower Murph 👍🏻
