Fireside Chat for WWW ep17 "Say My Name"
The PC's come together from the Holiday Road (and a wild variety of sound environments) to talk about Name Days and bathroom bangin. Meanwhile our guest stars begin to form some sort of...initiative...a team if you will, of...remarkable individuals.

The sound design of this story is the first time I have gotten as equally as lost in the background as I am in the story in such a long time. It so perfectly builds dimension and breathes action and life into this world. I do not think this would be as amazing as it is without the pairing of Taylor with Brennan, Aabria, Lou and Erika. Thank you for bringing this world to life
“Aabria Iyengar: I'm sure everything with Silver will go fine, the episode ended well.” OOOOOOOOOOOoooOoOooOkay
Lou's reaction to Steel's offer really rung true for me. I was heavily disfigured a decade ago, and my experience in the American healthcare system trying to put myself back together was frustrating and less than useless. After a decade of adjusting and living with my new normal, a retired surgeon approaches me, informs me of the reconstruction possibilities, and offers me a contact. It's a painful struggle, especially in the moment, to reopen that door to hope.
I like Transcendence! It was weird and great.
Aabria is as into sports culture as Brennan is into obscure Celtic folklore
And now we know why Brennan was out. Fantastic that even the fans that were told by Brennan and Izzy at their live show kept the secret. I hope the Wizard Sunny is enjoying their first spring.
Frost Fairies are a highlight for sure.
Question: real talk outside of the bit, is Brennan okay? I saw someone say that he wouldn't be present for any of the talk backs in era 2 but had no source on it and I only saw it that one time. Is he coming back?
Aabria, I need you to know, as a person with the name Sky in real life, you choosing it as Suvi’s wizard name makes up for the decades of never seeing my name on any little novelty keychain or notebook or sticker. I love this so much. It’s the little things for me
Likewise, fellow Sky! I still geek everytime it's said. My brain's like "oops did someone say my name? Sorry I was listening to a podcast" haha
"A NEW FEAR"???? YOU GUYS HAVE NOT LIVED W THIS WORRY SINCE EP 1??? three childhood friends grow up and are hot now??? i've been So Conserned about this third wheel possability for Forever fjyjt
We need some episodes of Eursulon and the foxes restaurant critique show, "Eats that in'spire' "
Sonder is an absolute treasure. Really demonstrating his name. Just a whole and complete life going on entirely outside the narrative
I am so deeply team the PCs just happily end up in polyamory
Arc 5 starts soon!
Just have Saige stop by for a guest character appearance. Aabria & her natural energy will shift everyone off of any other sapphic ship. Then she leaves and Suvi can pine.
There was a "room where it happens" missed moment when talking about the archmages meeting room
I watched Transcendence along time ago, I also liked it 😂
Bold of you all to assume that we *just* set that ship sailing. Suvi constantly showing off to Ame is 100% a trope
I love the reference to Brennan’s “Dom DM” moment
*spoiler ? Theory ?* . . What if Eursulon’s “amulet, talisman, anchor” is the golden armor? Curran's Pauldron?
Well, during the children's campaign, when Eursulon first tried to go home, Brennan asked if he was carrying the Pauldron.
Is this a "we know brennan isn't available for a while" or a "brennan's schedule unfortunately just hasn't lined up" situation? I love the firesides but it does feel like something is missing without the GM perspective there
If I had to guess; his playing Candela on Critical Role conflicted with recording these, which would mean Aabria will miss some soon
I kinda get disheartened by ships like this. It's so surprisingly rare to see real friendships in media without them being turned into romances
I don’t think that’s true at all about female characters, but I also don’t think the online ship is going to affect how Aabria or Erika play it
I want an avengers franchise of all the guest stars
I also liked Transcendence.
Baking is science for hungry people
Chekov's gourmand fox, calling it now
Also: magical confections are WOEFULLY underused as a concept
Can the next campaign be a series of Lou's guests DMing the Panama Rescue Story with Aabria as Brennan, Erika as Lou, and Brennan as Mr. Beardguy?
You are a genius
What if next time Mr Drifts accepts the return invitation except he isn't able to make it so HE needs to have a replacement
me 🤝 Erika narrative edging
Someone could turn Tumbler around on Silver with some sexy fan art of him looking at the camera and saying "What's up? Drama!"
Truly hoping for a wizard named Snickerdoodle who just makes baller cookies
No Brennan again 😶🌫️
Hopefully he’s just busy with the most wonderful things.
S-tier wizards confirmed. Headcannon: Somewhere in the world there is a wizard named Shit and they are THE SHIT.
What up y'all, I'm the wizard Sicknasty!!! [does a kickflip while casting a fireworks cantrip and absolutely beefs it]
So at this point, are we getting a either a one shot recreation of Brennan and Lou’s adventures in Panama, or, and this is my preference, a full on scripted audio recreation of said events with Brennan, Lou, and Aabria/erica playing the captives against whoever isn’t a captive playing the captee?
I was one of those tens of people to watch Transcendence, I believe in you Aabria!
Aabria- as the youngest of 3, you got sibling dynamics down pretty damn well
"Who is this boy standing in the way of a ship that we just set sail"?!? Oh, Aabria, honey, that ship sailed the first day of the main campaign. You were there. You saw the comments, at least here. I have been resisting that idea, myself. I like the sibling dynamic, and I worry about Eursalon being the odd one out. But after that episode? Don't pretend you and Erika are surprised. It's not just the writing-on-the-hand scene, either. I can't find it right now, but I think it was in this episode where Ame thanks Eursalon for visiting her in the infirmary and says she knew Suvi was there, too, because "there was one place on the bed that had her scent." Lou: "It would be awesomeif that ship could sink." Thank you! If any three (!!!) players could pull that off, it would be these three, but I really hope they don't condemn Lou to a "cursed experience." It's a long campaign. Maybe later they could bring in a couple more regular players to ease the dynamics, and something could happen there. I just think it's hilarious that Aabria sounds surprised.
The surprise makes me think that they genuinely hadn’t thought of it and therefore that the story will not go that way. Although I do love the ship and will sail along with the rest of you I just hope that the Wbn crew don’t feel pressured into anything
100% agree with Lou, sink that damn ship before it leaves the harbor
Fireside Chat Out of Context: "Yes, go to the mat for edging!"
I'm glad the Tumblr girlies agree because I will go down with the Suvi and Ame ship 🫡
Why did aabria get kicked off Twitter?
Because she said #CeaseFire and El Musky is a toddler
Dw Aabria, *I* think Silver is great
Now I won’t assume anything about the patrons of WBN, but all of Lou’s guests have a very robust knowledge of the episodes and the firesides. Is Lou giving out content for free to all these folks? It’s his right to do so, but surely he wouldn’t give out now over a dozen free passes
I believe it’s been established that the guests also play as Eurselon each episode, which makes the consistency of his character episode to episode all the more amazing
Next WBN one shot : Lou and Brennan's escape from Panama
P L E A S E
Ahoo hoo. Lowkey worried about where the Mike Bibby jersey comes into play lol
Crackle crackle!
Brennan lost forever in the wilds of South America :/ :(
How’s Lou’s hunt for Brennan in the Panama Jungle going? Did they miss each other again?
Yeah, where is Brennan??
Would love a WBN one shot where all the pcs and npcs are the special guests for Mr. Wilson
