What is this bizarre false dichotomy Lou is proposing between fun and a well built character

emjemme

Every time Emily mentions Charlie’s Angels, 20 minutes are added to my life.

Connor

New Abraham Lincoln lore just dropped lol

Colin Kilzer

Wick and Bourne being on two ends of a spectrum is not something that I ever really thought about. I would say they’re pretty similar in a lot of ways that would make the spectrum quite niche

Ali

When I was starting this campaign for the first time I was looking ahead at the episode titles on spotify, saw this one and assumed they are gonna TPK in episode 8 💀 I then spent the entire first arc trying to not get too attached to the "doomed" characters as I was awaiting their final stand - just to find out they're fine and it's just a paternity leave 😆

Frannie

Yessss Lou!!!

Tai A.

Let’s go Lou!!!

Andrew G

EMILY YOU COULD GROW A FLOWERING CACTUS 🌵 IN A POT ON A SHOULDER PAD AND WHISPER TO IT WITH FIRE BREATH 🔥! THE NEEDLES POINTYNESS WILL BE YOUR PENENCE CREATING WHAT LOOKS LIKE FRECKLES ON ONE SIDE OF YOUR FACE!

Sawyer Erstad

Arc 2: Ep. 0 (Feat Lou Wilson and Robert Downey Jr.)

Alex C.

While Murph described the Witcher-esque process to become a member I just couldn't stop thinking about calling them "The Wonkers" But honestly, I love that there are now Honk, Zonk, Bonk and the Monks in Eldermourne. I'd really like to know how long Murph preplanned the whole thing.

Lauren Hall

Lou!!!!!!! I could not be more excited. Will miss Caldwell, but I fucking love Lou.

Mouse

this got an auto-like simply because we stan Lou Wilson in this household

Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord

A Witchery, Wicky world! My fav W's. Em is John Wick with a plant instead of a dog! Lou is livin alone at Kaer Morhen with his weapons! Jake is from Crookback bog! Sooo cool!

lilly smoke

Please give jake a mossy creature of the bog dog. Yall know that picture of the grassy mossy log that people said look like a camouflaged unicorn? Like that but a sleepy good boi

Zoe Metcalfe

Dragon means tarragon in Dutch!

evanescent

I was thinking/hoping that Lou will be the guest for this arc, so I'm feeling validated! Can't wait to listen.

That'sGaboob

I'm so happy Lou's joined. I've wanted this for so long. Can't wait.

Ryan Stokes

We got Lou!!!! Let’s fucking goo!!!!

Futureidk 1

Ohhhh man, I’ve been hoping for Lou for so long. He is fucking hilarious. Hope you have him on more often.

FiendishNoodles

The Bloodbound Gang; Hooray for the Band of Boobies? Flurry of Bad Touches? The deep cut possibilities from a 90s meme band are endless.

FiendishNoodles

Also Jake's unacknowledged under-breath "one last job" in response to Emily's character made me lose it.

Shez

I fell down a wiki rabbit hole last week and read about kensei (sounds like sensei) even before I knew it was a DnD thing! They are so cool, the kanji for their name in japanese means sword (ken) saint/sage/priest/monk (sei). So cool! Can't wait to see this samurai monk hybrid.

Kevin Alman

Now they just need Ally and all the d 20 cast will have played Naddpod

Garga Lenoir

So if these interim heroes had a great adventure against the mad mage, this makes it the campaign after the campaign during the campaign!

Haley B

Lou!!!! Yassssssss!! Thank you!

Eagledink

Lou! So so cool! He wea awesome as king rocks !

meaghan sheridan

I love Lou!!!! This is awesome. I’m excited to see how his role play style meshes with Jake’s, I think they’ll have a great dynamic.

Mr Oso

When I was waiting for this I was like it's either Brennen or Lou and I'm so excited that it's Lou!!!!

K

I'm so excited for the wildfire druid aspect, I'm playing one as an NPC! Also I'm hoping that Willie eventually becomes the new bloodbound recruit 😂😂!

Mariela Renquist

Oh my goodness, Jake please make your character's dog a Bluetick Coonhound. Mine sleeps 10 hours a day and then runs around like crazy. And I often forget she exists until she is eating food off the counter or trailing after a scent 🤣

Gabi H

This rules! I love this idea of cutting to another part of the world instead of just feeling the lack of Zonk. So excited for monks and Lou and obviously Daddy Caldwell! 🥳

tacticalgrandma

Oh man- I already based my Mercy Monk's voice off Fia, watching Jake play is going to make her too Eldermourney to function. I absolutely can't wait though, this all sounds so so cool!!!

Geoffrey Cater

anybody else think they were going to be level 3 for like half of this episode?

Kaleb O'Brien

Suggestion for Jafari. Give him a big quiver on his back that holds several different weapons a la the pursuer in dark souls 2.

Drysax

So so I kept picturing a mix of attack on Titan and the umbrella academy.

Grant Klein

Blood bound gang is a hype name

Jay Mahin

My partner and I had multiple conversations about who we hoped the guest would be and my top pick was Lou! I'm so excited he's the guest!

Rkds

Murph! I need logistical answers! 1) when the empire was formed did the old rulling families become the new petty rulers (game of thrones the seven kingdoms became lordships) or did the empire impose new more loyal ruling families? 2) are these episodes happening in the same week as the choochoo crew? Before or after?

Ben Beckwith

Great choice of guest, well done guys. At one point during this episode I laughed so much I honestly spilt port down myself. If Emily is still looking for a plant may I recommend some Draconic or Giant version of the hellebore? Also known as the "winter rose" this poisonous plant is bound with several mystical properties. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hellebore

Colin Barry

Getting a Halo Spartan 2 program vibe from these blood monks. Very nice.

Vonvonvon

YOU CAN ALL HAVE THE SAME BIRTHDAY AND THATS WHAT BRINGS YOU TOGETHER AGAIN!

Jamie

So so happy it's Lou!!!

Andrew Babbe

Why did I picture Lou yelling “DINKLEBERG” with his arch nemesis Knight Captain lol

Ralph Gonzales

This episode made me buy and watch something about Mary. Now I’m waiting for my Cameron Diaz x 2 campaign with Ben Stiller 😂

Stephanie Karisny

Yay, Lou!! Also, what about the Kindred instead of the Blood Bound? Kind of incorporates the common background/shared ties aspects while implicitly referencing the idea of actual blood bonds/ ties.

Moses

My favorite thing is that just because of how batshit insane the gang is they'd bring on a big budget celeb and none of us would believe it just because of how they are.

Rob T

Wouldnt the reaper and followers be against the blood bound bevause of their mutated magical nature?

dream_rogue

Hi Emily! On the topic of a class dip, a happy middle ground could be a one level dip of nature cleric! You get a little bit of healing and some like nature spells that could work in like a new life following the flame, and also you could get the cantrip shillelagh in order to focus even more on wisdom since the dragon monk is very wisdom focused!

Jack

LOU!!!!!

Chris Au

So Lou is a war guy

SoupLightning

When will ep 1 air? Next Thursday??? That's so far away!

Bea Munro

Manifesting this called shot: At some point, Teregon and Zirk will meet. Zirk will make a pot of awakening with one of his artificer infusions and turn Teregon's plant into an awakened shrub.

Kelly Charbonneau

So excited for this! I love the idea of Beau living in the cellar of a family with kids. I’m imagining that one of the parent’s cousins or uncle was part of the Blood Bound and that’s why they keep Beau around. Or maybe they have some enemies and Beau is some extra security and that’s why they keep him around. Very excited to listen to this adventure!

D'ran Dana

What about Soulsworn

Ditte Lange

Took this with me to the COVID test, and it made a liiiitttlee easier to get a Q-tip shoved down my throat

Sarah

Did Noone else get the Blood Hound Gang reference?

Certainly Not Brent

was so thrilled to hear the dulcet tones of Lou Wilson, appearing on NADDPOD at last. Love all of this!

Raymond Nalty

So how long is Caldwell's leave. Because this sounds awesome.

Caitlin Hackett

Loving this new arc, it's so fun to hear Lou playing in the world of Eldermourne! Does the Petty King Brightleap have a house motto? ( I'm illustrating a little house crest with the jackalope and left a banner free for a house motto if it exists)

Jeff Merrill

Jumping aboard the Loving on Lou Here Train. I was honestly just thinking today wondering when he would make a NADDPOD debut. Super Freaking pumped!! And Godspeed Tanner...you'll.....you'll need it.

Jack Dunbar

On the topic of min-maxing I think it’s all about what is fun to you and maximizing fun is what makes the game flow best. I play an air- genasi way of the shadow monk with two levels of the new genie warlock subclass. It’s weird and not ideal - genasi is not the best race for monk - if multiclassing to warlock you should take a fiend patron I guess - but when Shurik meets his real dad in a rum bottle and learns that his step dad art is really not so bad that is some fun role play. Not to mention it helps him find the discipline inside himself to really train in the way of illusion with his real dad guiding the way as he tries to build a relationship with this side of himself he never knew which makes him a better party member and a more competent commander which is what you want from a monk anyway right?

GayIndoorTyler

Super excited for Lou. His characters Fabian/Kingston/Amethar on Dimension 20 are all so different complex, I don't even know what to expect from him as Cameron Diaz.

Tech Adept Crafts

Is anyone else getting the vibe of The Expendables? I just want one of them to channel Arnie and walk back into the temple and say "I'm back".

Yamaha Hero

This is an amazing idea of what to do in the absence of a player for a few episodes! Best wishes to Caldwell, Suz, and the little one!

Leslie Cedeño

SO EXCITED for Lou to be on finally!!

1man2hands

Aw hell yes Lou Wilson!

1man2hands

I love how Lou was like I'm gonna find someone to love, Tom Cruise, actually it's Cameron Diaz

1man2hands

So I heard everyone is playing monks but the description of the order sounds like blood hunters (which are hella dope)

1man2hands

Oh my gods I love the concept of Tarragon with the plant she carries around for penitence

SamBean

Absolutely love these new characters and the world Murph is making, but I think my favorite part of the 'sode was Lou's overlooked "I'm sorry, what?" when Jake mentioned the cigars.

1man2hands

Wait is Eldermourne gonna turn out to be Bahumia at a different time? Or are the giant wars just a common thread in the Murphiverse

zach orion miller

Not to be rude but it was a bit uncalled for that Cameron Diaz showed up for a paycheck but refused to use the microphone.

Jacob Dewald

Abraham Lincoln's mother died after drinking milk from a cow that had eaten white snakeroot.

John Taylor

Murph: everyone is playing a monk Emily adding Druid spells to her sheet: well yes but actually no

Priyanka Patel

This is giving me such "The Old Guard" vibes and I'm living for it. Never heard of Lou before this (my only experience with DnD so far is this podcast and the Ghost Of Saltmarsh playthrough on How To Be A Great GM YT channel) and I'm really looking forward to getting to know another player and all the new characters! There's LOADS if DnD content online I gotta get into it seems!
