"come back behind this tree zirk! I got to take a piss" 🫣
Omg Zurk just Perfect Cell Senzu Bean Cain lmao
As a character we've only heard about this entire time, Murph did an amazing job portraying her.
"Yes, please drink piss in front of me!" is the craziest statement of the campaign 😂
Not me having to pull over on a road trip during the song at the end …
Prophet Cain has gotta be my favorite npc
smoking a cigarette thinking about fia and irina
oh my god i forgot how fucking adorable fia and irena's reunion is and oh my GOD I ALSO FORGOT ABOUT HOW THIS FUCKING EPISODE ENDS, FUCK!!!! and the fade out from everyone yelling at murph into the fucking shanty?!?!?!? what a huge fucking big brain move holy shit!!!!!!!
I’m suing for emotional damage
WHAT THE FUCK MURPHHHH
Catch me transposing a fiddle/cello accompaniment to Ill Luck Henry it would go so hard
I’ve listened to naddpod for over 5 years now, but every time I hear Emily sing this it makes me cry. I love you guys so much, keep doing what you’re doin!
Between Murph being a lil stinker and Emily’s absolutely perfect Ill Luck Henry…emotional rollercoaster of an ending
Is this the hardest Caldwell has laughed during naddpod?
He was losing it hahaha
This whole episode ruled so hard. Every bit, top to bottom.
Oh my god the shanty at the end is so good
Omg the end. Emily you are a star, Murph you put Shakespeare’s works to shame. Love y’all.
Trying not to cry at work during Ill Luck Henry, yall too cruel
The truth is I cried during the last 30 minutes of this episode so I guess it's so good that I'm working from home today. 😭 10/10 episode
Not me crying during Ill luck Henry 😭😍😭
For the record, falling romantically in love and being infatuated with the first/only person to ever show you kindness, while understandable, is super unhealthy from a relationship perspective.
Certainly unhealthy but an argument could be made that the two fall for each other because of their shared past, not shared trauma? At least for poetic reasons
Shivers and goosebumps during Emily’s ‘Ill luck Henry’. Incredible! Murph I’ve gotta agree with Jake on this one, you’re SICK man haha such a great ending to this episode.
Emily’s song at the end ❤️
Goosebumps to hear Emily's rendition of 'Ill Luck Henry'!
Murph’s playing of Irina is absolutely DIVINE. Fia & Irina’s connection is absolute perfection and will forever be in my heart. Love you guys so much!!!
SCREAMING at this version of Ill Luck Henry, I’m obsessed
We need Henry’s song on Spotify with backing so bad xx
EMILY'S SONG OMGGGGG 💗😲
I love the line "When luck runs out, heart steps in" 💚
Love love love!!! Genuinely going to miss the Third Mates ♥️ also, Emily! That song! Please please please make it available!
Holy shit Emily
I would pay for the ill luck Henry song.
Fia's haunted girlchild voice is truly the only equal to Bev's beautiful boy voice
Sooooo goooood!
I ADORE Fia and Irina's story! Also totally cried at both occurrences of Ill Luck Henry
Best one yet!!! Amazing song and loved Cains backstory- so devastating
You guys are truly awesome DnD players. And Cain is by far my favorite character in any of the campaigns.
Murph you evil genius!! Simply amazing.
You joke but I would listen to a bullywug confidence booster episode
“And yet, your balls” T shirt when?
The end! My god! So haunting yet beautiful omg, goosebumps!!!! Amazing job
My God that song... absolute goosebumps
1:31:00 Start of Ill Luck Henry
Beautiful song by Emily at the end!
OMG Emily’s Ill Luck Henry!!!!
Oooh, I totally think they're going to have to kill Cerinesis and then Zirk will use revivify to bring back Ireena
Arrrrggghhjjhhhhh!! Murphy is an amazing DM and the music by Emily!! OMG worth my membership and so much more…. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us!
God, Emily’s rendition of “Ill Luck Henry” is fucking incredible
im on a bus for school event snd it nearly made me cry. i hope this song (and any that might come in the last one im not there yet) as well as the score get put onto spotify
That transition from them yelling at the end into the song was masterful and easily my new favorite NADDPOD moment
This episode made me cry MANY times
I have listened to Ill Luck Henry about 20 times since listening yesterday. So great of a send off to this episode.
Listened to the end of the ep this morning after dropping my son at school, and luckily I was on a deserted beach because my shouts of "fuck, Fuck, FUCK" just got louder and louder. And then I cried. So all in all, stellar sode guys!
Hi Murph, what the fuck?! Also Emily I need the Ill luck Henry on Spotify pleaseee
Will Ill Luck Henry be available on spotify? Amazing job on this one guys
absolute banger of an ep, but i wanted to shout out the moment when zerk talks about cain: such a great spontaneous roleplay moment that captures a very genuinely human aspect of a character, in a way that is hard to find outside of DnD/TTRPGs
Totally agree, awesome RP from everyone this ep
does anyone know if the finale stream will be archived?
Just caught up in time for a major cliffhanger!!
I was very distracted by Irina being a frost dwarf
The standoff! The new verse! The song! The Cliffhanger! You guys have outdone yourselves once again! I'm soooo stokes for the finale!
So glad I listened again after Short Rest. Murph you goddamned evil genius!!!
This song reminds me of the wellerman son https://youtu.be/qP-7GNoDJ5c
That song gave me chills the whole time
When can I listen to cruse of Henry
Truly amazing!
I WAS NOT READY FOR THAT SONG, damn near cried, fantastic!!
Emily! The outro song is amazing!
Who hurt you, Murph? Who hurt you so much that you could do this to us? Jokes aside, amazing storytelling and looking forward to the final ep. <3
I have goosebumps, y u do dis
Man this episode was amazing! First of all, that tense conversation with Cain(?) was so good and I found myself nodding my head and going “ooooh” along with it. It was really a good example of why I love this podcast; it’s so rare to see diplomacy go well but this team is very good at it. ALSO Caldwell laughing in the bg when Sienna was talking about Hank’s exposed balls… dude, Caldwell you’re evolving into a True Dad that was 100% a Dad Laugh™. I looove the characterization of Irina. Murph did such a great job of capturing Fia’s energy yet still making Irina her own person. I was a little worried that there was all this build up and then Fia and Irina would have to be all awkward around each other, but no they just meshed perfectly. And then of course THE SONG. Beautiful. Perfect. Legendary. I was really sad about this campaign wrapping up but now I have absolute faith in ya’ll creating a perfect end to this story, whatever it may be.
Emily deserves all the roses for that song oh my goodness 😍🌹
😍
I just know everyone's gonna be talking about THAT song!!! I really really hope that gets posted somewhere, cuz I need to listen to it all the time!
THE SONG
Going from beautiful autumnal descriptions whilst I'm walking the dogs through the woods to just "And yet your balls" really fit the vibe check 🤣 amazing ep as always
Absolute chills at the end with Emily singing Ill Luck Henry. Cannot wait to hear what happens next.
More than worth the wait ... amazing
i searched naddpod on twitch and cant find the channel to follow them
Truly one of the best ever NADDPOD episodes - I was literally leaking tears on the bus to work at multiple points. Then that song comes in at the end and kicked me while I was down. So so so so very good, hats off to you all <3
Oh my god this song is INCREDIBLE. As was the episode. You've all absolutely outdone yourselves. Damn you're all so talented. Don't mind me just listening to this song over and over....
I've had Ill Luck Henry stuck in my head for days and I love it. Keep coming back for more listens
The only downside to not wearing masks anymore, is I couldn't grin like a fool on the bus at the little surprise at the end.
That song at the end was fantastic!
Third Mates done got got! And then the Ill-Luck Henry song at the end done got me too! See you at the livestream!
This was amazing. Roses for all, super hyped for the final, definitely going to have to see the live stream if i can. So so good.
Oh my god. Henry’s song at the end. Emily did an amazing job!!!!!
What the fuck Murph.
I didn't finish the episode until just now and... man... Emily singing Ill Luck Henry was such a treat. So, so good.
I keep crying over Emily’s take on the shanty. Please I need it so I can just play it on repeat forever.
GIVE US THE SPOTIFY LINK YOU COWARDS
Oh my god. The story of Cain’s brother gave my chills. “They wanted to play.” Ahhhhh, CHILLS. And then meeting Irina?? AND THEN THAT ENDING? AND EMILY’S BEAUTIFUL MUSIC? Thank you guys. This was fantastic.
Bad episode to take acid on
I ad to prayers
So maybe
Wiat hellos
When Zirk hit that nat 20 on the crown I was like DON'T TOUCH IT! They completely missed that, but it wouldn't be the third mates if they don't bumble their way through. Can't wait for the finale!
Tearing up listening to that song
did murph give irina a cloak that she’d sewn herself as a callback to how enamored fia was of that vampire spawn with the ““patchwork clothing””? bc whether or not it was intentional that brought up that memory for me and it really made me laugh
🤯🤯🤯
Absolutely worth the wait.
Will we be able to watch the stream afterwards? I can't make it at the scheduled time
EMILY'S SINGING AT THE END, utterly breathtaking!! i adore that jake just had verse 2 of ill luck henry prepared and ready (that was not a draft!! it was lovely!). the just blatant horny flirting of billie and zirk juxtaposed with the cute shy girlhood romance of irina and fia is also so very good!!! but lastly, that cliffhanger and the gleeful laughter at the end.... hey murph, what in the hell???
Ahh another amazing ep and the Ill Luck Henry song - beautiful! Incredible, Emily and Jake!
WOW.
I love “Ill luck Henry” chills as I listen in the supermarket!!
Wowww Ill Luck Henry was so good!!
He has grown too powerful. We must NERF MURPH!
NURPH MERF
"for every person that turns away from you, there'll be somebody that stands by your side" jake you cant just SAY THAT
What an amazing episode. Ill luck Henry was sooooo good Emily.
i’m definitely picturing irina as aisling from the book of kells movie. this episode slapped
Em, you’re so rad.
I think the 'no Es' novel might've been a retelling of the story of Orpheus and Eurydice
So, “Orphus and Urydic”?
I was not braced for ill luck Henry
Huge shout-out to Jake for showing up with an additional verse out of nowhere. Emily's music gave me goosebumps. Truly a blade and a smith at work.
SAPPHO HERSELF BLESS YOU 🌈 This was a fiercely beautiful episode
With how amazing this episode was I’m scared of how bone chilling the finale will be
Song was awesome
The song gave me chills
THE SONG
WOW 🥺
Lets go lesbianssss!!!! Also that song at the end absolutely slaps, I know what I'm going to listen to on Spotify on repeat when it is hopefully released on thereeee
That was beautiful! I'm not crying youre crying!
THIS RULES SO HARD WHAT AN ENDING ON THIS EPISODE
That song at the end! Magical!
My 3 year old just said "The podcast turned into a song! The song turned into a podcast!"
Ya gotta take the personality quiz to find out if youre 'cursed sailor', 'wretched omen', 'badass blade' or 'first third mate'
I need I'll luck Henry download plz
Oh gods fanny pack glory hole
Loved every second of this episode ♥️🧡💛💚💙💜 PS loved the ill luck Henry cover at the end
Thank you gang for the fresh harvest of gay tears you delivered to my face complimentary to this episode ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Such a good episode! Really love Fia and Irina’s relationship 🥺 Henry and Zirk giving them space. The humanization of Cain?? Love me a complex antagonist. The end of this episode has got me STRESSED. Can’t wait for the finale! Excellent wonderful work gang! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
This episode was truly one of the best in naddpod history and that song!! I have chills!!! Perfectly set the mood for the finale
Emily's Ill Luck Henry gave me chills. Beautiful
Good God Emily, that song! AHHHHHH!! You guys! Chomping at the bit for the finale, but soooo not ready at the same time. Love this show so damn much ❤
Great job on the closing song Emily!
Murph's trollish laughter at the end is absolutely everything I live for. The sheer joy in your voice when you got em, dude. Truly a beautiful sound
Yes, theoretically you could fuck through the fanny pack...
Ummmm we’re getting the end song on Spotify right???!
What!?! That was insane! The song was incredible and added exactly what the episode needed to end.
What the FUCK
Amazing episode! Loved the dynamic between Fia and Irina, the cliffhanger and the song ❤❤
Holy shit big ol rose to the song!
Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! The song was fantastic. The sode was thick and goes down smooth. Next Saturday can't come soon enough!
Oh god I love it when Emily does a song ❤ she has such a beautiful voice!
Ill Luck Henry just gave me goosebumps!! So good!
What a great sode guys! I loved Emily's rendition of Ill Luck Henry! @ Murph I know I should've seen that ending coming but still absolutely fuck you
that ending is just... crushing
Holy shit
Not finished yet but my current favorite part of this episode is imagining Murph's disembodied head in the sky going "a tooth??? A toooth???"
Aaaaa! Chills on that song at the end 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
what the fuck murph fuck you, I love you, eat a rat
Hey Brian, big fan of the show! Hope you read this. Quick question I wanted to run by you... What the fuck?
The sweet earnestness in Jake’s delivery of the new verse to Ill Luck Henry and Emily’s song are the best things that have ever happened in the world, I think. Idk pretty sure
Another Murphy masterpiece 🤙
Beautiful song, Em.
The poor Fanny pack
The song is everything
So good!!!
The Time Devil has blessed us!
Great job on Ill Luck Henry Emily! Incredibly Amazing!!
Thanks sleep well dude
Squuuueeeeeeeeeeeee
You're too good to us, Murph. I didn't even notice level issues because I was listening in phone speaker. Thanks for fixing it!
Just ten minutes ago I was trying to play the episode, wondering why it wasn't loading. Very fast turnaround on the re-upload!
