Episode #7 "Kahuna” is now available, wherever you get your podcasts!

The gang is undercover and overwhelmed. Office politics, a catering budget, special projects. Middle management, those implacable knaves. Morrow is a business, man. Field trips. Democracy. Bath time. Research and/or development. And finally. As if it wasn't bad enough: consequences.

Ahhh, Brennan, why do you do this to us!?!?! 2 weeks on tenterhooks! Please don't kill our Honored Friend!

Gotta admit I'm a little wary of non-Hawaiians using a word with such deep cultural significance as the title but I'll reserve judgement until after I listen to the episode

Jack Jones

Great Episode gang, I have to say I'm loving how real this feels as a show, I feel often times I'm listening to a curated radio drama. Props to the whole team from the characters' to the sound design this show is so good!!

Excelsidorks!

Fantastic episode, this is about to be a long two weeks lol

Sven the Scribe

With how silly some parts of the episode were (this is not a complaint, I love silly) I just knew it was going to go dark by the end. I was not disappointed.

Laurence Myers Reese

Yes!! The sound design and editing really creates a more traditional radio play aesthetic than a typical real play d&d podcast

2026-09-08 21:00 Would there ever be a way to get the audio with captions? Either here on patreon as a video or something? I love this podcast so much but I have severe audio processing and hearing issues and can't always have both the transcript open and the audio easily. But something with the captions/transcript and the audio together would mean I wouldn't be weeks behind as I keep having to pause it at work and get lost. I "watch" D20 at work by having it up next to me and glance at the words whenever I get lost. I understand this might be impossible, but it would mean a lot to me. I really, truly love this story and the characters and world (I help run a discord for it) but end up feeling like I'm barely a fan because I can't keep up with what's happening easily. Thanks for your time!

I feel you. Now that it's going up on youtube there's the autocaptions. They, admittedly, suck but it's better than nothing. Here's hoping as the project grows and expands they can hire someone to go in and fix up the captions properly there if not provide them elsewhere as well.

I know I don’t need to convince anyone on here to listen to, but it’s just so good! I love their energy together. I am a big fan of how Brennan describes things. Particularly how each PC got different insights into the mage’s feelings toward Suvi. The fox is just delightful. I laugh out loud at the fox’s comments every episode. Overall, loving this so far and exciting to see it continue to grow!

Mike Chapman

Great episode, loved it, so much fun, however… I do feel that we were robbed of everyone’s reactions to their first espresso.

Rowan

So good!!! I love how open the world is for theorizing! You can feel all of the hints Brennan is laying out and I love it!

Ben East

OMG that was a great episode.

Brad Herman

Really loved this one. So fantastic.

Akshay Arora

Brennan LOVES ending episodes on massive cliffhangers. Why did I think that it would be different in audio format?! Seriously can't wait for the next episode now.

Michael Redd

Love the show and the cast, but Suvi is giving me big trust fund kid "Do you know who my dad is" energy. I wonder if this was intentional from the start or is this something Aabria decided to add as time went on?

Crits

This is giving Fabian v Whitlock energy. In that moment, Lou knew he fucked up lol

Camille Lanata

PROPS TO THE SOUND DESIGN FOR THIS EPISODE, when Eursulon went to pick up the chest to prove his strength, i literally thought my house was shaking, screamed, and then went outside to see what the problem was, only to rewind the episode and realize it was just a sound effect😅 amazing work👏🏻

Duncan

The relationship between Eursulon and the Fox is so incredible, I truly cannot get enough of it. I don't know if it's just because it's Brennan and Lou, or if it's because they are just so perfectly built for each other. I cannot get enough of it. "Never take a bath" "I knew it" HOW CAN YOU GET BETTER THAN THAT????

Gender Forking

Thanks for the summary at the beginning - very helpful to be reminded where we left off!

Julie

The idea of just continuing to try and lift large objects that get progressively smaller made me cackle in a way I haven’t in some time. Eursulon is the strong man of my heart, actually I think the Fox is but it can be both!

Ramiro Marroquin

Low key watching FH(s1e9) again I hope the trio+fox repeat Lou’s quote at that start of the show lol

Amanda

I am continually engulfed by the sound design. Feeling the vibe changes when conversations shift adds so much emotion to those plot cues and it's sooo amazing!!

Ramiro Marroquin

Eursulon you are the one to point out your invisibility and going to the restroom; BEAR!!!!!!!!!!!

Sven the Scribe

In Eursulon's defense his invisibility only lasts for a few seconds. Hence why he was supposed to wait for the distraction. But by that point Pain had already spotted him.

Ramiro Marroquin

Oh ok, I thought mechanics wise Lou could cast invisibility as a bonus action which lasts up to an hr

Sven the Scribe

Nah it's the Firbolg racial feature which lasts just until your next turn.

Cassidy Mauvelous

Archmage Marreaux (sp?) says twice that it’s a joy, privilege, and an honor to meet the party. Does this phrase correspond to our joyful witch, privileged wizard, and honorable wild one?

Jace Waggoner

We can still his vote should be on a tee-shirt 🦊

Dysprakkydac

I love their interactions so much! They are the best of bros and I hope it stays that way

okiedokie

This episode of fireside chat is giving HUGE My Brother My Brother and Me energy. Especially the sidebar with Unkie Deauke singing in the background 😂

RuviGaPo

I need everyone to know that i love paine he is my Type and i am not sorry

Voting in silence Gives strength to the group story In empty hallways

Tim

I know I’m like months late on this, but the end of the episode killed me. “What’s the plan?” INVISIBILITY WAS THE PLAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
