Short Rest: C3 Ep. 53: Warm Welcome

In reference to the beginning of this short rest: I actually started listening to NADDPOD via Short Rest Episode 58 for campaign 3. I was under the impression that I could hop on anywhere so when I didn’t understand what was happening I just gave in and kept listening until the end of Campaign 3 lmao I’ve since listened to all of campaign 1, 2, and now most of 3 as of today.

On family nicknames... One of my best friend's sisters is known affectionately by her family as "Boob" LOL

Dip spit was always funny. Rancid but funny

"Fajeta"

Making fun of Jake while pronouncing Beerus like is wild

Emily's quiet war flashbacks to filming Neverafter during the Axe discussion

The breakdown of beerus by caldwell triggered my inner nerd

fajita

my nickname in my family is Ski and it has absolutely nothing to do with skiing. Very much Gif coded

Every time Murph says "Tread carefully" or "Tread so carefully" I am reduced to tears. Whenever it is a string of "The DS discourse fallout" I am reminded that it was one of the funniest things I've ever listened to. ANY call back to it is just such a delight.

Them hating on an autumn boyfriend felt like a personal attack

My middle school used to get axe bombed all the time. They used to close down different areas of it to air it out.

i don’t know how anyone could doubt that jake is the number one dragon ball fan. it’s obvious he knows more about it than the other three.

I'm with Jake, love a feel-good film, but I do like horror that goes into Themes

The Budweiser frog commercial was directed by a young Gore Verbinski. It's success got him the clout to make such hit films as Mouse Hunt, The Ring, and The Pirates of the Caribbean.

I’m the youngest so my family called me baby bear, then my mom started calling me Pooh bear and it just evolved into my sister calling Pooper to this day.

<3

If you’re worried about leaving streaks you need to put some toilet paper in the bowl first

Is Caldwell intentionally pronouncing the names of anime/video game characters or is he just a FAKE FAN?! HMMMMMMMMMMM????????

This episode made me think of my mom’s big collection of wooden percussion frogs

Jake should not watch Train to Busan. Not a very scary zombie movie imo, but def unexpectedly sad.

Budweiser frogs happened before I was born but the Wikipedia page is UNHINGED "As the series' storyline progressed, it documented Louie's enlisting the assistance of an inept ferret hit man, who tries to kill the frogs by dismantling and dropping the Budweiser neon sign into the swamp water, thus electrocuting them. Although this assassination attempt failed, it resulted in Weis developing post-electroshock muscular irregularity. Louie briefly replaced Weis in the Bud-Weis-Er cheer, but ended up getting all of them fired, due to Louie's inability to just follow the script. The other frogs in return gave him a literal tongue-lashing and revealed to Louie that they could speak with a complete vocabulary and that they knew all along about his plot against them. These three frogs then began a new lifestyle as flashy tap-dancing and Fred Astaire-mimicking acts on Broadway. "

Yerg reminds me a lot of Sonder from Worlds Beyond Number. Murph and Brennan’s DM styles always seem to parallel each other in unexpected ways.

Hot takes on GT jake!!

I feel personally attacked for being a person who enjoys pumpkin all year round 😂

Damn Jake pulled out a deep cut with Goku Jr. Pan's great great grandchild from Dragon Ball GT: a Hero's Legacy

Caldwell, I love you man but Ryan Reynolds didn't buy a club in England, he bought a club in Wales. Both in the UK but sooo very different

I subscribe to the Patreon for the streaked bowls.

And no one is talking about how Callie was courtesy flushing a GIANT TOILET! Like how did she even get up there to use it! Where is the fan art?!

An extra rose for GF, nicknames like that are just so wholesome. My niece had one when she was young: Kaylee turned to K-bob Krankypants when she was cranky, to just K-bob, to Kabob, then to just Bob.

Murph did you name the North Star after the former Minnesota hockey team? If not, just say you did, and that's another great reference

What is the DS they mentioned?

Them not knowing that Goku Jr. is an actual character is the prettiest most insignificant I've ever been mad about

I don’t listen really like NADDPOD I stay for the commentary on commercials

all 3 of the crew Busting Up at Jake’s pronunciation of Vegeta is an INSTANT classic best of. yt compilation staple for years to come 😂😌

GET IN MAH BELLY

GT is underrated. I’m not sure if this has been brought up at some point. But with his deeper connection with death, could anyone else see Sol taking a level or two of Grave domain Cleric?

I hope 8 Bit Book Club will be another Animorph's novel 🤞

a rose for everything you guys talked about and especially for fajita LOL if there isnt already a dragonball related mixed bag i for one would love to hear one XD

Big roses for "Small-der"

Dragon Ball GT is one of my time fav anime and Jake is right Goku Jr is the best

I’ll never get tired of you referencing GoT Murph

i loved gif too it worked in well with the whole youngest child thing because my brother and i who are older don’t have nicknames but i can’t remember the last time i called my younger siblings by their actual name lol

I don’t know if Murph has siblings or not but man he has really nailed the shithead brothers dynamic. Big salute to our daddy DM for this arc

I have to mention, the sound of one of those wooden frogs is so distinct. You razz Caldwell so hard but I reckon that his frog song is justified

I wasn’t ready for Murph’s “I like this story. I like the themes.” Made me snort. Never again will I be able to watch a serious cerebral movie without laughing inappropriately at that Murph voice in my head mocking me

Axe peace bomb in the dome…. Emily needs a month off to recover from the memory

I had a Brut phase then moved to Old Spice, but dam 13 year old me loved it

I truly hope the party stays in the town of Ice Knife for AT LEAST a couple of episodes. I would be sad if in the next ep the crew ran out of time because of Alexandrite.

Knowing ya'll are wrestling nerds I was itching to ask what you all thought of Iron Claw!! Glad we're left kind of all feeling the same way :')

calder kildae, the cold sir cold sore

Good
