Jonathan Spell

I like elks. I wonder what facts I will learn t'day

Lobsterbisque

The whole fate of Nif having an elk familiar being just fate overall is too magical. I hope one day she gets to meet the elk spirit again 🥹

The Wizard Sprinkle

wow!! i totally thought brennan decided on the spot that the child would be Nif when Erika chose an elk

megan wave

lou making tea in the back for five straight minutes is killing me

Kevin Staley

I love Lou just chilling making tea in the background haha

Cole Sarar

Y’all are adorable. Happy Alf Gappen’s Day!

expandingnebula

alf gappen bless us, every one (but this must be read in kermit the frog’s voice)

Keith Prescott

Glad to see that Lou’s good friend, Johnny Tightlips, could step in for him in a visual medium while he’s traversing Panama.

Caitlyn

This was so cute it should be illegal

Gingie

Further proof that literal magic exists, nestled in stories 💜

CarpeBootium

So Johnny Tightlips needs to come to the Fireside

Sammy Campione

My favorite part of this video was Lou's incredible commitment to that pot of coffee

William Sander

Genuinely did not even see Lou standing there until the slow turn after calling him “Jonny Tight-lips.” What an icon.

Shannon Ho

he's kind of a quiet dude

ScoutHooligan

Ok, sappy comment time! I have always really struggled with Christmas time because bad relationships with my mother, capitalism is hell, and general ba humbugery. But Alf Gappen's Day is a new holiday tradition that I am going to start celebrating💜 it brings me so much joy, especially as a fiber artist that loves giving knit and quilted gifts💜 thank you for such an incredible Alf Gappen's Day gift! I wear it on my hat with love💜💜💜

AyunderfillVonScotchguerd

I learned that when Lou is experiencing what is colloquially known as the unique feeling of being “butt hurt” - he makes à the teeeaaa!! J/k all love to Lou and whatever was going on there in their cute realm. — More importantly - F U N K YES!!! How whimsically and chest-lightening-ly (yes I know, grammar!) beautiful to know it was serendipity surrounding the sacred elk.

Marcel T.

Happy holidays all 🙌🏻 aho ho ho and crackle crackle!

Laura White

So when is johnny tightlips guesting on a fireside chat? Id love to hear what he's got to say

L J

Happy holidays to Erika, Aabria, Brennan, Johnny Tight Lips, and the rest of the WBN crew!

Code0scar

It’s a shame Lou couldn’t make it to the video but was glad to see Johnny Tyteluips.

The Wizard Sparrow

Johnny Tightlips😂😂😂. The synergy of magic that is woven within WBN creativity is amazing.

blue

and many Lepi-Tepis to you!

Dukinator

HELL GANG *dies*

The Wizard Sparrow

During the description it reminded me of the white stag-prominent in Celtic lore. With modern interpretation the two can become intertwined (thank you ChatGPT😂).

Julia Whitmore

I was really hoping the answer was pure serendipity and it's even better than I thought because I, the listener, forgot that Erika, the player, didn't even know what Nif's familiar was yet. Really and truly Big Brain Shit up in here.

shadebug

It's spelt Nif‽ I don't know what's distressing me more between this and Eursulon

boxen

For all we know, he's been there the whole time.

Cackle Cackle

Omggg!! This is so great to hear. So— ok is it the SAME ancient primordial elk?? Or does she just have an Elk Magnet? 😂🦌

Cackle Cackle

The last name is a tricky one to spell. What is that. Dutch?

Cackle Cackle

HALLO THIS IS JOHNNY TYTELUIPS WOULD YOU LIKE TO HEAR ABOUT OUR BEAUTIFUL CANALS? (Please make the accent in your mind because typing it phonetically made me feel like an asshole)

Jo Carter

I adore it when these folks astonish each other.

xatlern

It's an Alf Gappen's Day Miracle!

Alyssa

Aabria: “why are you guys talking about the CHRISTIAN GOD like he’s some mythical thing. The lord touched both of you and said elk!” Erika: 😳🫣😨🤔 The fact that Erika’s primary job is voice actor is so funny to me because they have the MOST EXPRESSIVE face in the biz and it consistently makes me crack up

Alyssa

Erika: “so when you’re groping through the dark of the night, hoping for a touch of warmth or a spark of creation” Aabria: ✋🫢🙂‍↔️🦀🦀🦀 The visual reactions are fryingggg me today! 😂 love getting a video clip

Alyssa

Thank you Melanie Bowman, Avatar of the People! 🔥

Just a Fox

Did you just do a question mark and exclamation mark in one?

Just a Fox

"Hell, gang!" The catchphrase of Wennan Wee Wulligan

Just a Fox

Johnny Tightlips will show up and never say a word

CarpeBootium

But if it was an episode of Horner Corner…

Carrie Mook Bridgman

If Brennan had an audible reaction when Erika said "Elk," the great sound design of hooves and snuffling covered it up. In the video Erika says they were surprised that Brennan seemed excited about the elk, but all we hear from him, after Gallop's full description, is a quiet, "Beautiful."

Carrie Mook Bridgman

We don't know if her elk familiar will want a name, but if he does, I hope she calls him Gallop in the spirit's honor.

Carrie Mook Bridgman

That's a reverse-psychology gotcha. I and several others, given the history of spellings in Umora, had guessed Niamh like the Irish name.

Natecharodon

I'm looking forward to the next fireside chat with special guest Johhny Tightlips

Lojaan

I hope it IS Gallop

Trina

I love elks, I used to get to see herds of them regularly. One time, when my husband and I were at a ranger station in the Olympic National Park and he did his impression of an elk call, the rangers all looked toward the sound with shock and then told him that he sounded EXACTLY like an elk, and that he should NOT do that outside. 😂

The Wizard Sprig

Careful with that request. The phrase "loose Lips sink ships" is actually about what happens if you ask too many questions of Johnny.

Charisma Teeth

I'm on Lou's side. I'm always on Lou's side.

Ina

Absolutely bananas

Teeven322

When Brennan said “I call it Fantasia” I was like “oh, like the singer?” 😂

Strawberry Milkshake

Oh and I don’t see anyone talking about it, but I love Aabria’s shirt!

Emily C

Perfect and stunning

Alyssa

My kiddo said the same thing! “I love Aabria’s shirt…I wonder what’s on it!” 👚💕

Strawberry Milkshake

“EXPRESS Floral Boyfriend Portofino Shirt” on eBay seems to be a similar pattern. Reverse google image search for the win I think! Tragic the posting only has it in extra small 😭

Alyssa

Excellent work! There’s another posting for an XL on eBay. Both sizes are too big for kiddo, but they were thrilled to see the pattern! Loving some pink and some flowers 💐

Nym

Obviously I do not know *the* answer, but I would speculate that Nif’s interaction with Gallop early in a profound way at a young impressionable age, and the part of her soul that is represented by her familiar is probably modeled after him 🥰 (so, different elk, but linked)

Nym

Now I want a Nintendo character called Wee Wulligan, complete with mini action figures. Maybe he could make an appearance on Katie Marovitch’s D&D on a Bus

Nym

I can’t decide if it was real or he was doing a bit. If it was real I wanna know what in the hey was going on back there 😆

Mike Chapman

This was delightful! When I saw the title was 'All About Elks' I assumed it would be Erika talking about how big Gallop's ass is. Instead we got this message about serendipity and Johnny Tightlips.

Mathias Kofoed-Ottesen

That is absolutely incredible and speaks highly not just of how in sync you guys are about storytelling but how finely textured a world you have grown that what already was lead you both to what should be. Also - Brennan, did you know that the word ‘krimskams’ is actually used in Denmark (and perhaps the rest of Scandinavia), meaning something like knickknacks, doodles, and various thingamabobs? If so, how vast is your insight actually and when will you release the official Mulligan Reader on Folklore, Language and other Esoterics? I’d buy it.

Shannon Ho

there is still time to talk about elk dumpers

Alphones Armorman, suitperson

I am hoping you are able to use that space for other podcasts, content, and maybe rent it out for recording, to maximize your return on creating such a great space to work in, I cannot fathom you working in there 40 hours a week, but do recognize how much it frees you up to do more of what you love!

Rachael

I think my favorite part of this whole video is Lou not turning around at all while he makes his tea. 😂

shadebug

Does everybody not have a text replace set up for interrobangs and gnaborretni?

Alejandro Montero

I was going to ask what Johnny Tight Lips was doing over there, but Brennan and Lou beat me to it

Alissa

I am now

Melanie Goguen

That was SUCH a great interlude and even more magical for the serendipitous ELK! <3

Bluez_Cluex

LOU WILSON LOOKING BACK WAS THE FUNNIEST FUCKING THING EVER. Sorry 😅 v late sleepy comment
