Emily I would pay the last of my money to hear the Austin Powers CYOA
Caldwell, it's magnificent!
i love when murph gets a little mischievous. have fun taylor ham
I have a 5 year old daughter and this was therapeutic for
I love how toxic they always are in these adventure books djsgshsjsha
4th re listen 🤣🙈 I’m absolutely crying with laughter at murph screaming “YOU MADE US OLAF, JESSICA!”
The Hoobacratic Oath is the second funniest thing ever said on this show and it didn’t get anywhere near the love it needed.
Jake didn’t get recognition for his top notch joke “fan-fic-tastic!”
doing a relisten and there’s foreshadowing of this masterpiece from caldwell, as well as the origins of olaf dies in frozen 2, in the short rest: green teen quarantine!
I’ve never heard Emily so unhinged as “JESSICA! YOU DID THIS! JESSICAYOUDIDTHIS!!”
“Do you want to bone a snowman?”
I hear people talk about the task it is to watch frozen multiple time. Disney Animated feature films are my comfort films.
But also I will say when I am lazy, I drink tea directly from the mini pot I got in a Costco gift set
This was AMAZIIIIINNNNGGG
Not the random reference to The Good Doctor 💀
Not enough Adam Driver
This was WILD.
SPOILERS FOR CALDWELL'S FANFICTION: It is an absolute travesty they didn't get to the run where Kristoff kills Olaf for fucking his girlfriend.
What a journey but also "Anna and Christoph are also there, the end." Was hilarious to me
Glad you guys were finally able to get Jake on one of these
I'm reading through it rn and the worst part is that it's somehow actually OK at being emotionally sincere sometimes. I've said out loud "thank you Caldwell this is awful" several times.
As a parent of small children I needed this. Also I’m glad Jake is finally on a released 8Bit BookClub ep!
i want the song to end with "and i just want you to know"
If you read the latest World of War craft book, it's from the perspective of the dragons, I think you'd have a great time
Great job Caldwell. But the most wonderfully crazy thing said was “snowmanity could be a Cirque du Soleil”. Thanks Emily.
Coldwell? No?
GOGURT?? omg
After this I'm totally doing a Trinyvale relisten. Made me miss the triplets!
I was just gonna say this— biiig triplets energy 😂 The triplets as a hydra
YESSSSS
Such an expert recreation of the format. I loved it!
I'm so impressed, Caldwell! great fanfic!
this is incredible… would love more caldwell stories in the future!
I love when Murph gets to be a “player” because when Murph gets silly, he gets SILLY!
We demand more Tanner Tales!!!!
Hell no caldwell is a weak bad story teller. He should stick to drawing so I don’t have to listen to his garbage
I’d like to listen to this but I haven’t seen Frozen II yet, will there be any spoilers?
Only some slight lizard spoilers
Truly a masterpiece Caldwell, thank you for blessing our frozen little ears
Not fuckin hellsa
This was bonkers, I love it
Am i the only one who could only make it halfway through this ep. Caldwell could only make it through like half a sentence before everyone was jumping in and interrupting him with an near incomprehensible bit. I would have loved to hear more of what he had to write!
....finish the episode my dude
Next is a NADDPOD CYOA where a kid gets sucked into Bahumia right? I’d buy that pdf!
this is insane. i love it!
Emily is especially wild in this one. Great ep gang ✨
Absolute chaos. Haha.
Even when literally writing a new story, these choose your own adventure protags can't escape being clingy, desperate and toxic lmao. Incredible
No joke, I got my consulting analyst dream job at 34. Can confirm that it’s not fun to talk about at parties.
As an analyst in my 30s I feel seen by this
It's wild that you guys didn't mention Caldwell's previous CYOA fanfiction. It was amazing! Emily cried tears of joy!
WOw. So good. My friend also has a three year old and is similarly constantly watching Frozen(s), and we have riffed a lot about it. Clearly the CYOA format is the proper venue of exploring the world. I will be sure to send this along to him.
Immediately it reminded me of Caldwell's FF fanfiction and I knew that this would be so fucking good. I was right 👏👏👏
Immediately getting throwback vibes to when Caldwell wrote a mini game book for Emily in the original run of 8-bit lmao
The best 8bbc since final fantasy fan fiction 💖💖
I’m listening to this while getting ready for my wedding in 2 hours :D
Congrats!!!
hoobacratic oath was amazing caldwell. amazing.
This weirdly has Buffy the vampire slayer vibes.
The funniest book club reading yet 😂❤️🔥 I’d listen to all of your handwritten stories endlessly
Happy to see that they can still turn an adventure book into a toxic queer romance, even when one of them wrote the thing.
caldell is really showing off his incredible talent for improvising while playing it completely serious
Will sub to whatever tier I need to to keep Tanner's Tale Tavern semi-regular
What vigorous catharsis for a spirit wearied by costuming a recent production of Frozen, Jr. What absolute purgation of the dark night of the soul!
I loved slopping up the lorridge Caldwell! Thank you for the story!
Are we gonna get those sketches from tn
I couldn't stop laughing! If Caldwell ever has time to do more it would be a true blessing
Caldwell you are my new favorite author. What an absolute banger. ⛄️❤️
okay but when will yall release a naddpod themed choose your own adventure book?????
Caldwell, you were robbed. The best improvised line in this entire episode: "ah, yes, you took the Hooba-cratic oath". My fucking sides. That's Yes and gold. And on the spot, too. Can't believe that didn't result in a several minute digression. Great stuff, everyone. Thoroughly enjoy everything you put together. ♥️
I CANNOT wait to hear this lol
This Lorridge was thick, filling, and nutritious.
Damn, I was purposely a mean coward and still had an happy ending! Thank you Caldwell, this is one of your, if not your, magnum opus!
P.s. I love y'all equally, but Caldwell more equally than the others.
I will take credit for the 69th like 😎
Oh my God Caldwell WROTE it?? I can't wait to listen to this.
Is there death?
Olaf dies. Shit. Spoiler.
This was amazing.
Jeezus, this is amazing. All hail, Caldwell, HAIL HAIL HAIL!
My favorite part of the Frozen movies has always been the infidelity and will-they-won't-they romances.
We are unhinged out the gate with this one. Love it
Listening to this on my drive to DC for the live show. So excited 😊
Honestly I think the Whole Fat Bastard thing I had to deal with came from Murph referencing Dr. Evil in the Troy vale crossover. He caused my player to die for the joke and now he is dealing with the consequences.
Please God make a choose your own Austin powers thing.
Best journey home present! London represent!
So Olaf dies cool
A Caldwell adventure, what a treat! Can't wait to listen
I'm equal parts scared and delighted
Finally the sequel to Emily's FF choose your own adventure fan fic! I'm so joyful rn
There must not be an ending where he survives.
Fastest I’ve clicked on an episode
not sure how i feel about the fact that reading the phrase “Olaf’s Frooze Your Own Adventure” gave me such genuine joy
Request from a long-time fan: it would be really cool if the different campaigns were sorted into collections on patreon! Love relistening, especially to eldermourne, and it would make the older episodes easier to find. 💖 (I was actually just looking for something to listen to and then saw you just posted this, hope it's cool to write in this way)
I hope he dies constantly
