I hate to admit it but I totally followed Caldwell's reverse dutch boy.
Stella scream greeting Zirk, “GOOD EVENING!” Third time through campaign, fucking hilarious!
oh my god the whiplash of naddpod never gets old crying from the image of a desperate mother screaming to a secret witch to save her son and suddenly belting out a sea shanty she used to sing to him, to cry-laughing that the sea shanty is absolutely dunking on her ex-husband LOL ;; AAAA ;; like it's such a classic fucking like, tale of magic shit to be like "my husband didnt care for his step-son but then a voice spoke in my head to save him and i called and sang out to that voice bc thats how desperate i was to save him" like fuck thats so GOOD and then holy shit zirk saying "i dont need you anymore" and then leaving a voicemail that says it's ok to kill his mom if it comes down to it?? fucking BRUTAL, LOVE IT LOL it's also exactly the kind of calculated ruthlessness that it feels like his mom wouldve wanted to teach him, so to have it righrfully turned on her?? fucking chef's kiss, love stella and their whole dynamic it's so so good
GOD im doing an eldermourne re-listen, and murph said “jesus christ” at the exact same time i did in response to the stella message and i felt that in my bones
i did the same thing and i read this comment before it happened
Jesus Dice Christ, that dialogue between Hank and Hank Jr. I read the comments first and didn't believe the hype. But truly so touching.
I'm on a replay with short rests and I am holding back tears trying to finish the dishes.
I got to the part where Izzy starts singing a sea shanty and I SOBBED something about that just really hit me square in the chest. It's so bittersweet that she truly loves her son even though she's written off Henry completely.
“Going to town on some nice moms” nice one jake
I love Jake's pettiness towards Edgar and wanting to flood his basement even when it was unnecessary.
favorite episode in a long time super exciting
Absolutely love how Emily’s desire that all blacksmiths are hot women came true in this episode lmao
Haha, the self deprecating sea shanty was amazing.
What a dope episode! I am craving art for all the lake horrors!!!
I am so psyched to listen to Jasper on NADDPOD!!!
WHERES THE HATCH??
there i am. making chikin. Hank has a bit with the son who is going by the name of hank. i have a cry making chikin.
ZIRKKKK I am shaken
The episode was great but Caldwell your wife Susanna is such a great writer! Loved the New Yorker essay wow
God this ep was intense. It's so nice to see eldermourne in it's prime. Glory to Zelboldar!! (How do you spell that Murph lmao)
Jake, I just want to say how much Hank means to me. As a guy with a shitty and non present father, hearing a man who *wants* a relationship with his son but life gets in the way is such a beautiful thing. I could only wish my father was half the man your imaginary character on this D&D live play show is. Thank you for giving me even a fraction of what a good, loving father is like.
Shitty dad haver here as well. I also love hank so much.
I was not prepared for the Hank Jr bit at the end and now I’m having a little cry in the laundry
Holy shit, Zirk is so much more cold then Bev I love it!
What an epic episode!!!!!!
Just hearing the third mates slowly and consistently corn-cutie all daddy Murphy's weenies had made me so happy 😁
The music Emily has been doing lately is giving me final fantasy vibes and I love it. Killer episode!
I gotta stop listening to these in public! Y'all got my crying in public again and it's not ok but I love it! 😂😭😂
Truly can’t wait for the short rest on this one!!
The music is so on point this episode!
Is it just me or does Murph’s voice for Walter sound a whole lot like Keanu Reeves in John Wick? It’s a hilarious image imo
JASPER!!!! I’m so ready
The moment between henry and hank jr. was so touching, this whole ep is a cryer
Murph/comment peeps, how did the rich people hear about/figure out about the missing pieces of the necrophone? I felt like I missed that piece in the story.
I think Stella told them the parts were stolen when she was confronted by Locknamore (not sure how to spell that name)
@jake it's not kway it's "key"
That dang word. I had a similar embarrassment when I put that word in lyrics for a song. Luckily my smarter friend caught it before I released it anywhere lol
Not me immediately tearing up at the gym when Zirk said, “I don’t need you at all” and almost fully letting it out when Caldwell said Zirk leaned on Henry harder than he meant to 😭
Pro-tip: check the episode music list and look for "The Purge" to get an indication of how scary the episode will be 🙈 I shit bricks last episode for sure Edit: oh no, what was the music for the water elemental fight after they rescued Hank Jr from the guards??? I need to add it to the list of intense music. 😅
Dammit! The feels!
Between the guppy and the method, this is becoming a Pokémon dnd podcast
That epi was rad.
Why you gotta make me cry at work man
Glory to Zelbildar!!
Did this episode disappear from anyone else’s RSS feed?
Did anybody notice that Murph sounded a bit strange in this episode? It could be just that I was listening to it in 1.5x speed and then went to normal speed.
When the normal ass dude uses a Tomb of Beasts monster and you know the stats of it...
No chode sodes here
Who else thinks Emily is a god for all the music she has made for the stories we love so much?
I love reviewing the music list to get an idea of what kind of emotional rollar coaster I'm in for if it's music we've heard before.
Another awesome ep, guys! Can't wait for next week, 3 Black Halflings is SO GOOD!
Hey Caldwell, tell Susanna that I loved her essay! Great episode, too!

Haven’t listened yet, just wanted to say… QUACK! QUACK! QUACK!
QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! QUACK!
What a thick sode
I don't know if I'm ready for whatever "Zirk says goodbye" means 😮
That awful tease from Murph should at least have been punctuated with an ellipsis…
ZIRK SAYS GOODBYE? Either we're in for something very sad, or maybe dr. Nebill comes back as a horror and they get to talk? Either way I am not ready for this at all.
Thank you daddy Murphy!
Let's fucking go
That Zirk says goodbye is so ominous and I hate it
Thanks for the thick sode!!
Yay, bosmang!
OH IVE BEEN WAITING PAPA MURPH
Thank you
