Toni

If Hermie is Jody’s son then that makes Nick and him brothers which means that Taylor is hermie’s nephew

BETH/SCARY BROUGHT BACK RON'S "WHO'S YOUR DADDY" JOKE!! Full circle baby

Raccoon_Coded

Holy shit that was a good freaking episode!!

Aylis J Lind

This is one of the very best episodes. 💕🥹😭

Cat Gonzales

I know Anthony says in this episode that this is his worst fear about season 1 being better, but this episode is what made me upgrade from EX to touring and it's the best choice I made all year. I re-listened to the entire series uncut, I get Dad merch, and then I re-listened again to the ad free versions. I was scared because it was still pandemicky for me and it felt irresponsible, but it was the best decision I made all year. thanks y'all!

Jen Connolly

The episode I didn't know I needed 😭💔

Julien Zubkov

“And then you feel: being inside… two young boys…” -Daddy Anthony ~1hr 17.5min

Can anyone help me 😭 at like 1:04:50, they’re talking about the church pews, and then Will makes a comment and everyone freaks out and I’m not sure if I’m not hearing it right, or if I just don’t understand it? “She’s got a great apps?”

Ashley Nicollette

Will said "She's got a great apse!" An apse is the semicircle part of the church at the end of the aisle that is where the pews are typically facing!

welcometojen

Damn, that’s good 🙏 Thank you!

Just so good to hear the original daddies again! I loved the play back and forth from grandkids to grandads. Don't want to spoil anything for future listeners, but the doodler's thoughts blow my mind and it's a great, refreshing take on the BBEG.

Elijah Andrade

Im confused on the ramifications of this episode, who is Taylor Swifts grandfather? Jodie or Glenn? He turns into Glenn, so even tho Jodie is Nicks demon "dad" from the court, Glenn is still Nicks father? Im assuming its like genetically the case but Jodie being a demon its like a curse of demonic tendencies?

Jack Futty

So because I never looked up what Anthony has done professionally, I never realized that all the jokes they made about Borderlands 2 was because he was head writer for it. So I went and looked at his works and realized he's written for a bunch of other stuff I know. In particular. he designed the board game World Championship Russian Roulette, a game which I backed on Kickstarter, got in the mail, and then never played. I distinctly remember at GenCon that year going up a guy at their booth and saying "Hey, I backed this game on Kickstarter!" and getting a very tired response of "Oh, cool. Do you like it?" To which I quickly realized that I never should have started this conversation because I hadn't actually played it, and gave a "Oh well, um, I guess I haven't had a chance to play it too much..." response. He then offered to play a round of the game with me where I botched several rules and further proved that I shouldn't have started this conversation. I bring this up because I'm now wondering if that person I played the demo with and had one of the most awkward conversations in my life with was Anthony. I think the odds are pretty slim (it's so long ago that I don't remember the guy specifically; it was probably just a random employee of TuesdayKnightGames), but I something at the back of my head is telling me that this might have been him. Either way, I still haven't played that game, so this comment is just as awkward as that interaction. Love you Anthony!

Calvin Schalch

“We have to help it” at the end hits pretty fucking hard

Cristina

Didn’t Glenn start taking care of nick with Jodie (like a stepfather) at the end of season one?

Cam and Micah

will, anthony; I ugly cried ✨🤌🏽✨

Robert

Loved this episode!

ESO

Boom.

ez ra

honestly having the dads show up felt like a fun cameo :) i like the teens they are my babies and i birthed them <3

Marissa Y.

On my bajillionth relisten, I only JUST realized that *Sparrow* is the one Anthony is describing as looking tired and having a bowed spine. 😭

Nather

What's with the Wilson's and their SonDads

Ryan Frederick

i still don't get normal thinking his whole family hates him

KDonWonTon

I literally subbed to avoid ads, and I'm so glad I did, because I wouldve lost all emotion for this episode if I had heard another Helix ad mid dialogue

Ryley Henry

Praise be The Doodler for this blessing they hath bestowed upon us!

Rin H.

DID 🤘 NOT 🤘 GET 🤘 VACCINATED 🤘

Isabella H

The title is kinda freaking me out😅

Tylagaunt

Longer episode, the name is "Alright"? We've got an emotional episode, patron pals!

Ace Hutson

Yeah it’s gonna be…

Lana Hignett

Uhh, was the intro everyone playing exaggerated versions of their season 1 characters intentional? Am I just fishing for season 1 references? The world may never know

Smooch Bear

Beth may sound like Owen Wilson when she said oh wow at the intro. Love what you guys do.

Hailey Koart

the nostalgia of this episode. 😭💕 the theme!!!!!!

Kaleb McStay

Men men men men manly men men men

J.S.

Huh, Taylor and Hermie are cousins

Simon P

omg i cant wait

Michael Miller

I forgot how well this show can deliver a gut punch between the goofs.

lila hartner

I'm listening to this in class and that is not a good idea I am emotional

bunnycupcakke

OH MY FUCKING GAWD!! THIS EPISODE WAS SO FUCKING GOOD!! GOOD LORD!! I AM SO EMOTIONALLY AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW. 😭😂💕

Mel Bee

another day, another time that henry and normal have made me cry at work

Sean Davis

Going in and I already don't like the vibe the episode title is giving off

InvisHandd

God I do miss Season 1 :(

Marley Flanagan

new favorite episode just dropped holy shit this was amazing

Sony Nicolson

Gotta be my favourite episode across both seasons so far. Fuck man, last time I cried it was at Death of a Salesman and Frank Conversations. Mr Burch over there, flexing his fucking gigantic writer cock, absolutely incredible

Ashley Akers

Anthony put his whole writing badussy in this episode and boy am I crying

Michael Valdivia

I got goosebumps and am doing a 10 hour shift and just saying wow 😳 truly a masterpiece

Matthew Forrest

Oh my good god. That was utterly amazing. I hope Anthony's comments about season 2 not living up to the first aren't too serious. This is incredible stuff. Top 3 episode of the entire 'cast.

Sarah Shinkle

I could listen to that episode every day for the rest of my life. Holllly shit. Flawless.

Rick E

Bravo on that last line.

Drednot

1:23:46?! you couldn't shave a SECOND off some where to get the coolest run time?

Jaxx Miller

holy fuck, this episode was amazing. jaw dropped, ngl

Cat

AND THIS IS WHY I CALLED YOU SCREAMING TO GO LISTEN NOW

Rosie from Earth

This is hands down my favorite episode of the season

Henry G

When you rip off Titian fall 2 and it’s amazing

Hanginschlonginjorts

Dude, I saw a fucking Quiznos opening soon sign right in the middle of this masterpiece and kept thinking about those weird mascots during the climax.

Ian Evans

What a prime(r) episode!

Matthew Hansen

I got chills when the acoustic alright came on

Ferrin93

Oh no, not a SYMPATHETIC DOODLER

Nathalie Axelsson

Sweet Jeebus, Anthony. So talanted and beautiful.

James Moretti

No spoilers: great episode that recontexualyzes SO MUCH of the series and spin offs!

Gwendingus

Boulevard of Broken Teens would be such a good title, based on one scary line this ep

Tony

This was by far the best dndads episode I've listened to thank you all

Rosie from Earth

Freddy I’m begging you. Please make glens ringtone a ringtone that we can download.

Sophie B Grapplin

I really hope that Sparrow has his own plotline and we learn how he feels about everything instead of him just being there to be Larks helper for Lark-central events. Like, he tricked Henry. He must feel some type of way about that. Even if it's just "he loves his brother that much" I'd love to see Sparrow's side of everything and a look into his mind and how it's been affecting how he raises his kids

Cody T

Anthony’s storytelling is so top tier, what a truly banger episode.

Teddy Lytle

This was so good I listened to it twice!!

Teddy Lytle

And then accidentally left two comments (and a comment to comment)

The Pissler

The Only Beer You Can Chew

Adrien

aaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HOLY SHIT THATS A GOOD EPISODE

Xwelldo

Spoiler Alert x x x I am starting to wonder if maaaaybe the theme song "On My Way" makes a lot of sense from the perspective of the Doodler itself...

Phoenix Vizva’i

Oh mannnn, man man, I don’t even know how but this goes in the Hall of Fame of Intros for sure 😂😂😂 rewound so many times to figure out the audio edit lol

Nathan Thex

Was fantastic as always!

Bella H

I’ve never commented before but this episode was an absolute punch to the gut that I am still thinking about nine hours later! Absolutely stunning performance, my therapist WILL be hearing about this in excruciating detail

Wafflepriest

Knowing Anthony wrote the helper hints, now every time a companion in GOW:R compliments me for solving a puzzle quickly I'll imagine Anthony saying it in a condescending voice. This only makes it better.

Abby Mueller

I have never wanted artistic talent more than after hearing Freddie say that Ron sits on Glenn’s shoulders like Ram and Bheem in RRR 😂😂 If an artist reads this, I beg you, please draw it!!

Izzy R

Hermie is Taylor’s uncle I think

Joshua Cody

Holy fucking shit…I love Anthony’s story telling and lore so fucking much. He’s such the fucking heart of this show in so many ways.

Fruit

Wow…man, every time I think I can’t get MORE invested in the story and characters and their lives, I’m proven wrong, the lord this time was just DAMN

Emma Loosky

Damn, second listen through, this is intense! All the things in this one. All of 'em.

Niko Smiley

Matt taking the reigns and going buck wild is my favorite

Kenna

AHHH ✨️spoilers✨️ Larks "we have to kill it" vs norms "we have to help it" will campos you will always be famous

Phoenix Vizva’i

Wowwww, Hall of Fame Ep all around 🥰🌟🦄 don’t worry at all Anthony, the team is right, you’ve made a more dynamic 3D story this time and the seeds are paying off!! Perfect end to Act I of the sequel, stitches everything together into one unified story, brings it all back to character, and the teens deciding to help the Doodler is the rowdiest coolest first move of striking out on their own 😋 love that direction emotionally so much more than the constant DnD violence, props to Will 🤍 cherry on top of the ep was Matt absolutely skewering the dads with shitty action tropes 😂😂

Sophie B Grapplin

I think Uncle actually! Because Hermie is Jodie's son so that means Hermie is Nick's half brother

Bad fiction

Kudos in order for all, especially will and Anthony in this one. I’ll fully admit, that I’ve had mixed feelings about the season. But this one really hit. Obviously, seeing the old dads was a blast and everyone killed that. Loved the self parody. But also this new characterization of the doodler and how all of Will's characters handled that was wonderful. Really excited to see how y’all capitalize on the groundwork y’all have laid throughout the season. Very excited! Edit Also: just to preface this praise. This episode is great in ADDITION to Season One throwbacks, not solely because of. Seeing the old dads was always going to be fun and exciting. But what really made this work was finding that direction of what the season 2 kids need to do with the Doodler and how well the Oak family drama was performed. Tying the Doodler even more directly into generational trauma and daddy issues threads was such a good move.

Bad fiction

Really love the idea that Lark and Normal saw the same thing and came to completely different conclusions given their respective upbringings. That’s great.

Majuu

This is soooo goooood!!!! Its really all coming together, and i love it

Emilio95

Best episode this season!

Anthony Licata

Hearing the old dads brought so much joy to my heart. It was truly like seeing old friends again. This season has been, overall, really funny and awesome, and I love the grandkid characters so much. Season 1 will always hold a special place in my heart as will the original Dads.

DungeonBrat

omg Lark is hot this episode tho

eatmygerms

the most devastating part was the gum falling out. I'm gonna need an extra week to deal with all this

Emily

I needed a good cry today 😭

Striker Flynn Massrider

My jaw has not just hit the floor, it has sunk into the molten core of the earth and back out the other end and is forever lost in the void of space

Lienisaur

Anthony are you fucking kidding me?! First hermy and now making the big bad depression incarnate. You genius bastard.

Jake Siefers

Oh man. What a mind fuck. Love it!

Meg Stampke

That was an amazing episode. I cried when I heard the acoustics and how we got to see the OG dad's.... Great work Anthony.

Kendall Crosby

I thought the baby was going to be Glens kid from the episode he spent having sex to level up lol will Taylor meet an uncle on his journey?

Chrys

Sensational work by all. Will and Anthony made me cry again you fuckers

Sacha Brenac

Absolute genius writing , tying everything together , emotional, so good

Kaleb Phillips

23 episodes in, and we finally got some of that Season 1 magic back.

David Dampier

From intro to outro this episode is unhinged and pure brilliance. Loving this season!

Adam Lalik

My man man man sports podcast culture is not your costume

Marcel Perez

Honestly best episode of the season, i was gasping, tearing up, ugly laughing. Literally commenting for the first time just because i had to

wren.

legitimately one of my favorite episodes in the whole show, if not my favorite. ive relistened to it three times now and every single time has ruled

Nora Hopeless

Oh I can't WAIT for the teen talk on this one!!!!

Ali Rielly

What a stunningly beautiful turn!! This show is my absolute favorite thing in the world!!!

Donavan Jones

It's my last month of Patreon membership it was a gift last year thanks for all the extra content was hoping to here my name before the time was up.

Tommeh!

Charsis

This episode was 🤯 This show is phenomenal I look forward to every episode!

Tommeh!

Wwhheenn is the teen talk for this (I know, I'm inpatient)

Jenica

This episode is INCREDIBLE! Sometimes I forget you're a bunch of writers and storytellers, and then you do something like this. This episode made me so excited to see where this season goes.

Dysandeus

One of my absolute favourite episodes of this show, the twists and turns are absolutely incredible

Josie Tiffany

Holy shit this episode might be my favorite of all time, the beautiful storytelling, the throwbacks, the jokes. All amazingly, beautifully, hilariously perfect. Great job guys.

Chloe Dyck

My brother told me this episode was sad and it involved normal so I was on the edge of my seat waiting for normal to die or something. Thank goodness that didn’t happen. Gosh. Great episode though

Katie Thomas

Great episode guys that twist at the end was great! Definitely one of if my favorites

The Brothers LEE

Has anyone seen that episode of shaman king shere yoh and his boyz have to experience the memories of the previous patche members to find the tournament. The kids becoming thier dads reminded me of that

Noah Aranda

Did I just catch an edit after hermie is revealed? Could of sworn Freddie mentioned Anthony playing with the hermie figurine when listening yesterday

tori

anthony you literally have outdone yourself. the storytelling, the parallels, the game dynamics, the dialogue, everything. will with that line at the end? what? i will be thinking about this all week, definitely going to relisten. was gobsmacked the entire episode. omg

tori

i just listened to it and heard that mention!

Noah Aranda

I realized it comes up twice, early on it is mentioned, and then again around 40 minutes Must of been before/ after the episode split

Jacob B.

I have a bouqet of roses with no one in range to throw it too. This is my favorite episode that you guys have released so far!

Chloe Dyck

I believe what they meant was the joker figurine they got to remind the players that Hermie was there

Phi Oliver

I can't believe the doodler has disorganized attachment

Worm Wizard

Fun fact about the weird al show- the production company would only give him a kids show, which is not what he wanted to do. So he did what he does and made a parody of every kids show, and thats why it was so fucking unhinged. And of course the corporate execs hated it and that's why there's only one season

Zack Bochman

something about Anthony and will yelling just makes me cry literally every time. you guys pluck my emotional heartstrings every time.

Faith Perez

hooooly shit. one of the strongest episodes between both seasons. huge applause to all!!!!!
