Fireside Chats Q&A

Your right as a patron is to ask questions, and our privilege is to answer a small, carefully curated, selection of them.

Not a Q&A question but I saw you were originally working with uncompressed .wav files, is there any chance of us getting those on the patreon feed instead of the compressed .mp3 versions? It would be nice to listen to it with less compression.

Kyle Epperson

The "Submit your Question Here" links back to this page. You need to click the image above or the link for the google doc.

Nelsina

Wait, is this for the first episode of the children's adventure or for the first episode of the main story?

Kattttttttttttt

it might not be a terrible idea to have a "pronouns" option in the form

The post says it’s for the Open Door, so I think it’s for the main story!

Reaux

Just submitted my question!!! Can't wait for the first fireside chat!!!

Mike Ferris

Can we ask questions about the Children's Campaign? Or is it just for the main story?

Nelsina

Oooooooh then I'm going to wait for the episode to drop first. Thanks 😊

Geek Peek

Wrote my question! Hope it gets read 😆

Logan Elsberry

Is that on Patreon? I’m not seeing it

Nelsina

I don't either, I don't know if it's out yet

Matthew Turner

Not on Patreon. Spotify or other services.

Isaiah Everin

Woof, that question character limit is very rough.

Kat Underwoood

True, but the name section works for that. They ask for pronunciation help so I think there is space for (she/he/they) designation if it matters to an individual specifically. I just they everyone on the internet unless otherwise noted these days.

Callum McAlpine

Honoured Hosts, I have submitted queries.

Nelsina

****running****

Tanawin Dinn

This is for everyone, and wanted to ask about the player intention vs the intentions of the chararcter. As there were many examples of time within the children story that i can imagine the players wanted to talk more, or solve said issue but you still remain true to your character. The question is how do you seperate yourself and your wants and desire from your characters? as many of us in the roleplay use these characters as self inserts and not as their own person.

Brandon Carbaugh

The length limit on the question section is super tight. Would love to see that loosened a bit in future surveys :P

Alanna Breton

Oh hey it's Oren! I always see your interviews with Brennan pop up on YouTube, they're great!

Krystalin

sorry about the million questions i asked i hope you understand 🤚🏻

The Dreaded DM

I will actually pass out if my question is read out. Or puke. Or both. No matter what, I'll be happy 😂

Geek Peek

Thank you so much! I LOVE doing them! ❤️

Geek Peek

It’s like tweeting :) Limitations spark creativity ;)

Sam A.

I respect the need for brevity.

Bria A.

I’ve been doing things today and probably won’t finish up Episode 1 and get to writing questions by the time Fireside Chat is actually recorded, so have fun you guys! Congrats in advance if you get a question read. 🤍

Katherine Rose

Honored Hosts, I have submitted my queries. Thank you again for sharing this gift with us.

OmniBeer

Hah, I had the same reaction- decided to finish the Children's Campaign first, so I'll be dragging a liiiittle behind.

Joshua Vern

But every question is just "Brennan how dare you"

Stephen

From what I understand this fireside will be released next Tuesday, and the next episode will be the following Tuesday

Bria A.

Curse my medical appointments. 😅 I still have like half an hour left of CA 8 and then the entire first main campaign episode.

Nahda

Saaaaame. I will cry and will be unable to breath for a long time

Adrian Griffin

Are we encouraged to ask lots of questions or would you prefer we keep it to just one per person?

Xanian Jamfalcon

So far I'm obsessed with the world building. This rules so hard.

Laura Jane Hamilton

If not, I hope you can ask it yourself later! It's a long-running campaign so I feel like I need multiple Oren interviews about it!

Seth Morton

That's what someone said.

Abdelmelek

RELEASE THE WITCH CLASS

Kendall MacKay

Lol loved the “DO BETTER!!!” message for the question word count trigger 😂

Dariel

It certainly kept me from asking more than one question. I guess more questions is doing worse?

Noremackid

This is way to early you released 10 hours and want question 48 hours later I sleep 8 hours a night so minus 16 hours so 32 hours that’s not enough time but I respect it. How do you all feel the first 8 episodes went ? Still need to listen to the ep 3-8 myself but reflect on it and how you feel the came out. So far so good for me so keep them coming.

ZBL

I hope there’s another for JUST Children’s Adventure since I need to finish that before I start the main feed

jdthetugboat

Hope 7 hrs late aint too late

Leni Nicole

Brennan Lee “I like to make my friends cry” Mulligan has gone Too Far.

Addison Hardy

For those of us who have listened to the Children's Adventure; can we see the picture of the called shot? You know the one Lou Made after he rolled four one's, and then called two six's and got em? Cause I for one think I'm gonna need some proof lol.

Maja HB

Where can you find and buy the merch?

Magerdamage

This is my first podcast I've ever listened to. I miss seeing these beautiful people's faces while playing but I have fallen even more in love with all of them in listening to this.

Drake Placid

Missed the recording, but just wanted to say that we love what you are building here. Not just in this story (which warms and breaks my heart in equal measure), but for years to come. May you bless each other in the ways your stories bless us.

Zach Deatherage

If I wanted to emulate the children's adventure for my home game what would be the tips from the cast?

Sam Huff

Who/ are the inspiration behind the musical accompaniment.

Ren

the answer to that one is already at the end of the QnA ! their first post, and it's basically "yes, but not yet, but soon"

Alex H.

Would Ursulon ever sport a fun little hat?

Queerly Victorian

SO BUMMED I TOTALLY MISSED ANY NOTIFACTION FOR THIS. Ah, well. I'm now determined to submit one for the next Fireside!

Cross Connect Cosplay

Would you ever consider making/releasing full character/outfit references for the artists and cosplayers out there?

ChefJustinLane

Submitted my actual question, but also, Y u do dis?!?! Y u make us cry evertim!?!?

Ravonlocke

Couldn't think of anything besides this, so I look forward to questions from everyone who had recovered enough to be intelligible.

OtherJason

just curious if youre planning on having guests come in for short arcs here and there

The Wizard Stalwart

Making my way thru the episodes still so no questions, just wanted to say you all are amazing and have really enjoyed the work each of you have done across multiple settings, so supporting this was a no-brainier. The emotion and storytelling had been top tier, which is no surprise, and have been impressed with the sound design too. Thanks for the time and effort you all are putting into this!

christie botos

Maybe we can Cram that Daniels into some bowling

Katie Meyer

. . . my plan was to try and get through this page's content/comments by the end of Monday, and be 'ready' for the next drop, but it's just a joy really that there is such care for this new community to pre-emptively get us even more drawn in around the campfire. . . . So much love and gratitude for sharing this love of your own friendship and story making and allowing us to participate like this. Update to my own post: And with that I've listened to all the things! Now to go back and do it again? Likely so. Time to add another log to the fire.

Katie Meyer

Right there with ya . . . though at this point and time, I'm going to be finishing the 8th epi children's adventure right now.

Joey Sawyers

RSS link still seems to not be working :P

Astermisten

It is working for me (using the Podcast-Addict App), so maybe the problem is on your end? :o

Joey Sawyers

Google podcasts doesn't work 🥺 (or at least putting in the search bar like they said didn't work)

Joey Sawyers

Ooooh there's an add RSS feed option different from the search lol This is my first podcast LOL :P

SarahBearBaby

my question for anyone else to consider: am I the only one who can visualize Grandmother Wren SOLELY as Zeniba (Yubaba’s twin sister) from Spirited Away? I wanted to create a more original view of her in my mind but the image and characterization of Zeniba matches so well and I can’t shake it. also who else fucking sobbed at the end of episode 5 of the children’s adventure? it was involuntary and just came out of me.

Brandon Carbaugh

In my head she looks like the old seer lady from Nausicaa

The Wizard Saison

First half hour of the first episode GUTTED me. It's so amazing.

The Wizard Saison

The Ghibli-esque narrative is so super strong. And they said as much in the sessh 0

Genevra Brown

Yes, I absolutely pictured Zeniba <3

Maggie

She's a very specific mix of cool old animated ladies to me. I see her as basically Old Sophie with a Granny Pinako-esque bun and the not-to-be-fucked-with presence of Macha from Song of the Sea.

Sean Allen

absolutely oh my god

Ember Hood

I lost my dad to cancer last year and he definitely had some confusion and fogginess at the end. Episode one had me sobbing. But it also made me smile when it was revealed that some of that confusion was a curse. My dad was a magical person and I think he would have liked that a lot. Thanks for telling relatable stories ♥️

Ty Easley

i'm in the same boat with "mix of cool old animated ladies", but I think for me it sort of like flickered between strong Zeniba and strong Gramma Tala from Moana??

Sface

100% did the same

qtfighter

Do we ask questions about episode 2 on this same form?

Night

Hey someone is stealing your content in YouTube. Look yourself up on YouTube and you will see a channel stealing content

Marcel de Jong

Maybe I'm an idiot, but where exactly are episode 001 and 002?

Luke Hampshire

I am a firm believer that Ame or Suvi at one point put it on him as a hat while he was sleeping

worldsbeyondnumber

Short answer: Anywhere you get your podcasts! Spotify, Apple podcasts, etc. For more thorough help getting all that sweet audio, check out our instruction manual here https://www.patreon.com/posts/faq-me-faq-you-78044362 If you haven't heard eps 1/2 yet, honestly I wish I could trade places and hear them for the first time again. You're in for a treat. -t

Patrick Harry

Anyway to pin this to the top of questions are still be accepted for future episodes?? Y’all rock and loving the podcast

DungeonMama

Is there a Discord server? I feel like I've heard questions being answered from the Discord on Fireside Chats (I could be misremembering), but I can't find a link anywhere on Patreon to Discord.

Adrian Griffin

Out of curiosity, is this where we go to submit questions? Or is there another form somewhere else?
