2024-11-27 23:21:11 +0000 UTCHello 2 crew! Now I’m not here to talk DnD. I’m here to talk music and give a couple band recommendations! As they say people in their thirty’s rarely listen to new music (I’m 35 and actively try to find new bands.) here in Washington state and PNW two bands were pretty prevalent while I was in high school. School yard heroes and The Blood Brothers. Give them a listen! I would love to hear your thoughts!

2024-11-27 20:20:57 +0000 UTCits not uncommon for them to give advice on dnd courts and if you ask for it theyd give it

2024-11-27 19:43:06 +0000 UTCHey 2 Crew! You've mentioned that after campaign 3 you are thinking about branching out and playing a few smaller campaigns, maybe returning to some older games and maybe some new games and potentially away from D&D. I'm curious if any of the potential GMs for these games have any other game systems that are catching their eye! Would love to see a revisit of pathfinder 2e, or I think you guys could kill a campaign using Vaesen!
Callum Huszar
2024-11-27 13:59:33 +0000 UTCLong time listener, first time commenter, PS hate the show. You guys talked quite a bit during campaign 1 about making a source book at some point, is this something you guys are still considering?
Justin Nichols
2024-11-27 12:58:33 +0000 UTCIf you guys were to meet your PC across all campaigns, which ones would like you the most/least?
Noah Coleman
2024-11-27 12:07:48 +0000 UTCWill you have guest players on for future main campaigns like in campaign 1? I always enjoyed the guests and thought they were fun additions to the arcs. Also when can we expect the next hot boy summer?
My Names Mike
2024-11-27 12:00:12 +0000 UTCLong time patron, fist comment. My question is simple, maybe too soon to ask, but next campaign what's your plan?
Kieren Holmes
2024-11-27 09:12:31 +0000 UTCDoes your mom listen to the shows Jake? Does anyone have family members who are dedicated listeners?

2024-11-26 21:39:39 +0000 UTCIf you had to have a crash, grinch or sonic Christmas bauble. Which one would it be?
Connor Ayres
2024-11-26 19:47:08 +0000 UTCHello naddpod! I know you all have busy schedules but I was wondering if there's any more details on the Jake campaign? Can't wait to hear his 200 episode master plan and fully original world!
Malik Griffin
2024-11-26 19:12:51 +0000 UTCHeya Murph! Was always curious about your mastery at encounter balancing, do ideas for dynamic battles just come to you? How do you roughly guess if an encounter will be too difficult or too easy? Is there any advice you can give to someone *cough* me *cough* trying to up their DMing game via encounters? Thank you so much in advance, all my best to Caldwell, and in the immortal words of Brian Murphy, “you gotta honour the cock”.
ROMCOM
2024-11-26 19:07:38 +0000 UTCAre we getting a grinch themed mini campaign for Christmas?
Titanimus Maximus
2024-11-26 18:46:28 +0000 UTCWhat were your rejected ideas for finishing the campaign with Caldwell’s unexpected absence?
Ethan Johnson
2024-11-26 18:35:38 +0000 UTCIt’s gotta be the guy who came on from 3BH! Ah dang what was his name again? Jeremy Cobb I think

Tanner Spriggs
2024-11-26 17:45:52 +0000 UTCBurningly ghoulish question, are there any plans to revisit Twilight Sanctorum to catch up with Shadowfells founding freaky family?
Joshua Goguen
2024-11-26 17:34:00 +0000 UTCHey Murph! I'm a relatively new DM and I was wondering how you go about building such large campaigns? Do you just do a few sessions at a time or do you try to plan the whole thing out at once? Love all of you!!
KingHalt
2024-11-26 17:27:26 +0000 UTCAfter years of listening to D&D podcasts for years, I finally joined a game in my local area and have noticed it has been a great creative outlet for me and has given me a different perspective on my professional work as someone who works in a very "serious" profession. I am curious if you noticed that playing role-playing games has had any impact on your other professional work? Do you think being a part of NADDPOD (and D20) has changed how you approach your other creative work? And how so?
Alex Waldrop
2024-11-26 17:00:27 +0000 UTCHi 2 crew! How often do you go back and listen to old 8-bit book club episodes? I’ve been re-listening recently and it has some gems like the first mention of Austin Powers, and the first reaction to “driplessly”. I also noticed that many names used in the campaigns were pulled from some of the books you read there. Do you feel like you still pull inspiration from these books/episodes? P.S. not sure if that Jake guy would be a good fit for the book club, I would avoid pressure from others to have him on. Thanks! Hate the show
Evan Marshall
2024-11-26 14:23:27 +0000 UTCIs there a possibility for a potential new campaign in Eldermourne or any one shots within its world? Love the work you guys do btw :)
S. Marc
2024-11-26 14:19:20 +0000 UTCI’m sure a million people will also ask this lol, but will you guys switch over to the 2024 rule set eventually, or stick with the 2014 rule set?
Rachael Essen
2024-11-26 13:24:53 +0000 UTCCampaign 3 is amazing butttttttttt Murph.... what's Pendergreens been up too?! Is he still king of hell? Has he traded Gatorade in for pedilyte in his old age?
Eons Abroad
2024-11-26 13:14:03 +0000 UTCHello I don't expect to be heard as I already have been but here is my story anyway. My family of 3 all went to the ren fair (My Wife, Daughter and I) found a homemade dice stand and I'd been searching all over the internet for a long time for my dice set. They had a deal that you could buy a 15$ quick press pack they were re selling but if you rolled the d 20 and and got a NAT 20 you could pick any set of custom dice you'd like. My wife talked me into it I proudly proclaimed Dice Christ was with me and threw my dice in the tower as requested and got my first ever nat 20 for my first dice roll for my first set of dice. Everyone lost there shit the seller stole the bad pack and put the 20 in a necklace to (gain its power) amd I found a beautiful red and blue liquid core set with golden numbers that I really really love. Your show is extremely endearing and inspiring thank you all for simply being good.
Joe Shmoe
2024-11-26 12:11:06 +0000 UTCI’m running a Ghosts of Saltmarsh campaign in which the players are currently heading into the eye of a hurricane to stop Tharizdun from corrupting it and laying waste to the mortal plane. Naturally, the players have asked that the next session be Christmas themed. I know that they’ll be travelling to an underwater settlement and delving into a temple. I was wondering if you had any tips for merging seasonal concepts into well-established campaign settings. My thoughts thus far are that the underwater settlement is guarded by the spirits of those lost at sea (making the whole place look like a snowglobe) or an underwater Old Guppy-style Santa. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
Edward Smith
2024-11-26 08:49:05 +0000 UTCIs the Lorax the anti grinch? And who would win in a fight between the two of them?
Old Nog
2024-11-26 05:56:10 +0000 UTCFor Murph, have you watched invincible fight girl? It’s a fun wwe inspired show.
Rebecca Koester

Kevin P.
2024-11-26 05:29:24 +0000 UTCFor Murph, what is your favorite thing that you've stolen from a DM that you've played with? Happy Thanksgiving! Thanks for the content
pluckythechicken
2024-11-26 05:02:35 +0000 UTCJan and Troy invite you all to thanksgiving at their apartment. When you arrive you find the Grinch and Crash are already there. What dishes is everyone bringing? How does the evening go?
Nate Ness
2024-11-26 04:32:03 +0000 UTCive thought about taking out my brain, flouring it and tossing it like a dough to get the elasticity back. and digging the dirt out of its crevices just like how you'd clean dirt from the back of a prawn.
syzmon
2024-11-26 04:24:56 +0000 UTCA question for the stylish Emily and the other guys. Whether you are a player or an orchestrator, you create such vibrant worlds with genuinely unique depth. Where else do you express your creativity? And do you plan it or is it spontaneous? P.s. I've never listend to the show
Morose Psych
2024-11-26 04:01:05 +0000 UTCYou have all proven how good at thinking on your feet and developing a character you are time and time again, but how do you navigate trying to make sure each character feels whole and distinct, while still letting your own voice shine through? Without a writer or external pressure, it feels like over time characters would fall into similar rhythms, where they may not repeat but they may rhyme.
Steve Graham
2024-11-26 03:54:16 +0000 UTCA question I’d have for everyone is what is a moment, either in creation or at the table, where one of their past characters expanded or came to life with their own inner worlds when creating or playing a character for a new season?
KnockOffGrimReaper
2024-11-26 03:37:36 +0000 UTCA question for everyone who's played a full spellcaster, how do you manage wanting to use interesting spells, while still not feeling like you're dragging your party down in combat? I once played a div wizard who only used div spells in a pretty combat heavy game. We already had a combat wizard but I still had to find really weird ways to be involved in combat.
Tavitafish
2024-11-26 03:00:03 +0000 UTCI know you didn't ask me, but I've always found that having some part of the arena that must be interacted with really helps. One of my favorite combats I ever ran was a chase inside a train.
Tavitafish
2024-11-26 02:58:14 +0000 UTCQuestion for Emily. What is the best way to level half casters like paladin/bards or other strong multi classes including spells/fighting. Thank you yours truly oath of Hurwitz paladin
Marknado
2024-11-26 02:25:35 +0000 UTCQ for the DMs of the group. Where do you get your inspiration for combat arenas and making dynamic combats? I sometimes find it hard as a DM to think of combats that don't eventually become slap fights in a circular room.
Loaf of Bread
2024-11-26 02:25:31 +0000 UTCHi 2 Crew! This one's for the whole gang, I personally LOVE tackling a puzzle in dnd. What is one of your favourite puzzles you have done, either in Naddpod or in a home game?
Timeka Stenhouse
2024-11-26 02:23:36 +0000 UTCHey 2crew dudes, have you considered trying out other game systems besides 5e and Pathfinder? If so, what systems do you find interesting?
Scott Wabel
2024-11-26 02:11:20 +0000 UTCHey 2 crew this ones for murph how did you decide on the new stat blocks for the serpents are they based off their original stats or are they new? Also why did licorice lose their decay/overgrowth breath?
Lee
2024-11-26 01:52:54 +0000 UTCIt might be too early to say but have y'all decided on what's after C3? Would we revisit an existing crew for a period or try something new? Would love to see more of the Phantasmos or the Twin-Flames! Also thankful for y'all and the amazing show you do, Happy Bannanskgiving!
Pandaman1165
2024-11-26 01:48:51 +0000 UTCJust finished Bear and the Nightingale and absolutely loved it at Emily's recommendation! Was Fia Bonkginia based on Vasya, the main character? If so, I think Emily masterfully represented Vasya, while also making it entirely her own character.
Trey
2024-11-26 01:43:20 +0000 UTCIf (fingers crossed) y'all do a 4th campaign, could there be a character list posted somewhere? Once the crew has adopted them of coruse. Your worlds get beautifully big, so sometimes it's helpful to have a reference of *ummm who was that?* Thanks! ps love y'all
Kate The Great
2024-11-26 01:32:09 +0000 UTCPretty sure hockey is canon in Bahumia so what positions are your PC’s or are they just in the stands?
Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord
2024-11-26 00:54:58 +0000 UTCmurph did you realise that in c1 emily makes a joke about a committee of giant oligarchs running the fae wild? did you pull that and make it a thing or was that just a weird coincidence
Verity-Rose
2024-11-26 00:47:05 +0000 UTCGroup Q would you rather every song in the world can only be performed by the Grinch, or every artist in the world can only perform songs from HTGSC?
Conor
2024-11-26 00:43:55 +0000 UTCHOT BOY SUMMER SLAM! I need this in my life
Matthew J
2024-11-26 00:32:22 +0000 UTCYoooooo Question for Emily: At the Seattle show, when you all got onstage the lights dimmed for a second and my friends and I noticed you were getting up off the floor. We could only imagine you fell! Just wanted to check to see you were ok (like 2 years later…. But better late then never)
Mason N.
2024-11-26 00:28:49 +0000 UTCAt one point, you guys were working on a video game, and I always see fans asking for a NADDPOD Campaign Book (which would certainly be amazing), but if you guys could choose, what NADDPOD extended media would you like to see made? A Magic: The Gathering card set? A graphic novel of C1? Animated series a la Critical Role? I, personally, would like all of the above.
Jarod With
2024-11-26 00:20:55 +0000 UTCThank you Jake!
Sandwich
2024-11-26 00:15:29 +0000 UTCSpace Cram is one of my favorites. Thanks for reminding me to re-listen to it!

Cosmo Reynolds
2024-11-26 00:07:39 +0000 UTCBringing the Fireside to the Hearthside-Lou Wilson has recently indicated that he frequently loses money on side bets with Murph and maybe even enough to have paid for your house. How long has this been going on and is it possible that your bad rolls are the universe balancing out your irl wins? Also, big W for your dice game bringing us Never Stop Blowing Up and Misfits and Magic2. Happy Hoglidays to all and may your haters only have the tiniest of snacks!
sabertruth19
2024-11-26 00:02:18 +0000 UTCHey Two Crew! This question is primarily for Murph (but probably just as relevant for the other DMs), but now that Campaign 3 is approaching it’s finale, are there any sessions in any of your campaigns as a DM that you wish you’d have done differently? Encounters you’d make harder, events you’d set up earlier (or retcon entirely), etc.?
Hunter Kerns
2024-11-25 23:50:14 +0000 UTCI don’t know if you follow Worlds Beyond Number at all, but I think their bonus content Space Cram may be a winner for you. Lou’s got that dog in him!
sabertruth19
2024-11-25 23:49:05 +0000 UTCHey 2 crew! What music is everyone into right now? What do you anticipate appearing on your “wrapped” (or other streaming service equivalent)?
Lexi Hurley
2024-11-25 23:40:21 +0000 UTCWhat is an obscure reference that you’re always itching to mention but you’re sure people would never get?
Josh Durham
2024-11-25 23:37:01 +0000 UTCFor anyone, but mostly Jake, as the D&D young'n of the group, what are some things you wish you'd known as you were learning the game and what are some tips you may have for players new to the game and DMs running games for new players? Anyway, hate the show and never listened, #ReleaseTheLetter
Akira
2024-11-25 23:35:20 +0000 UTCOops all Barneys and Bettys campaign?
Claire
2024-11-25 23:14:27 +0000 UTCHey gang, going to keep it quick and dirty. Have you thought of running a Never Stop one-shot seeing how Murph made the terrible dice game? What kind of game would you want to run in that kind of ramping up system? I would personally want to see Caldwell run a Sonic themed Never Stop Running where everyone has to be their own critter (or robot). Also if you could have a signature trick weapon ala Bloodborne what would you take? I love the idea of a weapon with a cool if not impractical feature so if the only rule was the rule of COOL what would be your dream weapon?
Takowowo
2024-11-25 23:13:24 +0000 UTCWhat are all your respective favorite fantasy series, and do you think you let them influence your TTRPG characters?
Novelty Junky
2024-11-25 23:11:31 +0000 UTCQuick question for Jake, did you ever consider multiclassing into the relatively new Giant Barbarian subclass for Calder? It allows you to grow into a giant when you rage.
Denver Studebaker
2024-11-25 23:09:42 +0000 UTCWhat would it take for Emily to agree to play in a Flintstones mini-campaign?
Morse
2024-11-25 23:03:52 +0000 UTCI know there might be issues with recording rights and audio quality and a lot of other things, but is there any possibility of getting access to more recorded live shows? I live in Sweden and have a slim hope of attending one. I would even pay for a higher Patreon tier than mixed bag if that gave me access to more recordings. If that's a possibility for the future, that is.
Signe Krantz
2024-11-25 22:55:35 +0000 UTCJake, what’s the best burger in New York? I’m travelling there for the first time in January to see Murph and Emily at Madison Square Garden and am looking for all the “best [blank] in New York” recommendations I can get, any others from you or the rest of the crew would be great as well, Thanks!
Brandon R
2024-11-25 22:46:39 +0000 UTCHey gang! How do you guys feel about your characters for this campaign now that you’re at the end? Did you complete your goals or were there things you wanted to do but didn’t get the chance? How have your understandings of your characters changed since the beginning?
Miranda B
2024-11-25 22:45:53 +0000 UTCPathfinder campaign??? Pathfinder campaign????
Kathryn G.
2024-11-25 22:45:28 +0000 UTCQuestion for the Murphasaurus Rex: You’ve inspired me and a friend to watch WWE- where and how do we start with almost 70 years of action to catch up on? Do you have some must-see matches and storylines to start our trip down the rabbit hole? Thanks! And a PS/question for Emily Axigator: I’ve been re-listening to Campaign 1 and I’m falling in love with your music all over again! You guys talked a lot about posting your arrangements to SoundCloud and Spotify, but I can’t find the SoundCloud links and the only music on Spotify is from the Galaderon and Crick sagas. Is there more music hiding somewhere cause I’d love to listen on demand (especially the Trinyvale outro that I can’t find ANYWHERE 😢) Thanks again!
Tony Cappellino
2024-11-25 22:31:55 +0000 UTCDo you have any plans for campaign 4 now that you’re getting close to wrapping up C3? Are you going to do an Eldermourne campaign again, or set it in a new world entirely? Or maybe Jake can finally take the reins in the DM seat!!
Carter W
2024-11-25 22:28:34 +0000 UTCI feel so seen rn. You get me like no one else does
Sid Dickless
2024-11-25 22:27:36 +0000 UTCHello Nerdpoles! I was curious which characters you think would get along the best? I think Hardwon and Cormac would get along well, both loving Beer and being from Dwaven populations. What do y'all think?
Quinn Nash
2024-11-25 22:24:12 +0000 UTCyou’re so valid for this. i ALWAYS think about taking my eyes out, putting them in a metal cocktail shaker with some ice and giving them a good old flair bartender style mix, rinse them off with some soda water and pop pop straight back in. delish.

Jelly
2024-11-25 22:20:25 +0000 UTCThis remains unanswered. The people demand it *slams fist on table*
Lauren Cooper
2024-11-25 22:19:53 +0000 UTCFor the whole crew: what has been your favorite part of playing campaign 3?
Katie
2024-11-25 22:19:52 +0000 UTCWho would you want to play your character in the live action version of one of the campaigns?
Sloan Thomas
2024-11-25 22:19:48 +0000 UTCFavorite hogliday spill
Will Taylor
2024-11-25 22:19:39 +0000 UTCIf your characters were a Thanksgiving side dish, which would they be and why?
Lauren Cooper
2024-11-25 22:18:26 +0000 UTCIf you could remove one of your organs to clean it out and then put back in your body, which organ would you choose and how would you go ababout cleaning it. Personally, I'd love to be able to take out my lungs and clean them out llike you do a bong; fill them up with coarse salt and rubbing alcohol and give them a good shake, rinse with warm water. Then just plop those bad boys right back in.
Sid Dickless
2024-11-25 22:15:46 +0000 UTCWhat would be your perfect trio of tacos and margarita if you could choose any ingredient or topping? (*Assuming the margarita has a tiny paper sombrero*)
Peter Tschaekofske
2024-11-25 22:05:37 +0000 UTCI have a question for Emily! I’ve been listening to old mixed bags of holding and in the old D&D show episode, the Odyssey was brought up briefly. Have you heard of EPIC: The Musical? If you haven’t please check it out! Would love to hear what you think about it.
Cody
2024-11-25 22:00:23 +0000 UTCMurph, how do you organize your notes for your world building? I’ve recently started a campaign that is kind of a cowboy/fantasy setting heavily inspired by the old Dark Sun lore. I have trouble deciding what things need to go where when making notes about factions or important npcs that relate to more than one area. You and the crew have been a massive inspiration for me as a DM in how to build stories around my players.
David Silva
2024-11-25 21:57:05 +0000 UTCMy question is for Emily! My spouse and I have the NADDPOD beer glass set and I always say we can only drink clear/almost clear drinks out of the crick water glass (because I assume crick water would be nearly clear) and this has led us to wondering: what color IS The Crick? Is Crickwater clear? We assume it’s not, but is it brownish? Some unnatural other color? The people must know. PS our cats (Fondue and Willoughby) say hi to the AxMurph cats
Niko Emi
2024-11-25 21:55:59 +0000 UTCAlso as a Scrooge and a Grinch myself, I hate the holidays, they kind of bum me out. So please commiserate with me. What is the worst holiday you’ve ever had and why? Bahummbug. Bahumiabug? Cheers, and thank you, you sweet sweeties.
Kerri
2024-11-25 21:52:14 +0000 UTCIf you all were to release a mini-campaign in Bahumia where Murph wasn’t the DM and Emily, Caldwell, and Jake weren’t the player what foursome would you all like to listen play in your sandbox?
G.X. Barnett
2024-11-25 21:52:10 +0000 UTCWhat is the most insane campaign/episode idea that you’re debating doing or not?
Rotem Cohen
2024-11-25 21:40:09 +0000 UTCJust curious, how do people get into the internet comedy business? Is it just knowing the right people or are there interviews/auditions?
Chelsea
2024-11-25 21:38:41 +0000 UTCIf you had to, groundhogs day style, relive one holiday on repeat, which would it be? A Halloween of the past? Christmas present with the kiddos? Also I just re-listened to campaign one, and am working through all previous hearthside chats. Please release the Moonshine letter, I can’t stop thinking about it 🥹😬
Kerri
2024-11-25 21:38:30 +0000 UTCWhen can we hope for another campaign run by our Dungeon Docent?
Stef
2024-11-25 21:35:12 +0000 UTCHow many bars do you have?
Joseph Powell
2024-11-25 21:28:16 +0000 UTCJake, you’ve played a fighter in all three main campaigns, with the only full spell caster you have played being Tread Nevers. Do have any interest in playing another spell caster in the near future?

2024-11-25 21:08:12 +0000 UTCHey howdy hey 2 crew! I got a question for Murph! As a novice dm myself I sometimes struggle with finding a compromise with wrangling little grimlin players, with such chaotic players yourself, how do you find the balance between letting their shenanigans go on and getting things back to focus? (Also a shout out to you Murph for always finding someway to wrap the goofs up into the plot into something serious and heart wrenching!)

2024-11-25 21:06:39 +0000 UTCIf your characters across the different campaigns could meet each other, how do you think they'd interact? Would they get along? Hardwon and Calder met and they seemed cool, but I think Jens and Mac would immediately hate each other.

2024-11-25 20:17:30 +0000 UTCHey gang, serious question here for mister Murph. What do you do about chaos goblins? I have just finished a second tpk on my players because of 2 separate players deciding against the group and going rogue. The first time our warlock initiated a fight that they were specifically told not to. By PC's, npc's, and out of game. The second our party rogue attacked a giant mushroom worm after combat ended and a truce was made between the party and some feywild creatures. Each ended in all but the cleric surviving and he in turn revivifying who he could. This happened by two separate people and I was at a loss as to how to continue the story. Is there any way to reel in the pure chaos (side eyeing Emily) that a player can bring or should a good dm just roll with it and just adapt to PCs constantly dying because of their bizarre choices.

As someone who is deaf/hoh, it can be very difficult for me understand what people are saying. I've had to drop several shows because I just couldn't follow what was being said, but I have never had that problem with you all. I guess if I had an actual question for youse guise, it would be: do you have any recommendations for someone looking to get a mic to do their own recording? I recently got implants and can no longer wear anything over the ears without causing a feedback loop.

Mark Friedgen
2024-11-25 19:21:17 +0000 UTCI’ve always been curious: In DnD, and improv in general I guess, how do you all handle tension/frustration while you’re performing? For instance, while you’re waiting for Jake to show up, the Grinch bursts into the office and drags all the electronics out of the door. Then 10 minutes later Jake walks in ready to record, but you notice a look of mischief in his eye and a small tuft of green fur on his shoulder. Obviously you’re all running late and don’t have time to address it before cleaning and getting started, so what happens next?
Bryce Peterson

Anna Barnes
2024-11-25 19:18:04 +0000 UTCHey Duck Team! I'm getting to DM my first mini-arch over the Hoglidays and I'd love some advice! The arch is set in a prison where the party (a pit-fighting barbarian, archeologist rogue, and wisecracking bard a la the Jolly Jester) wakes up and has to escape. The prison is on an island off the coast of the continent and is multi-leveled with different encounters they can interact with to gain information and access to the other rooms and floors. Think The Boiling Rock from Avatar the Last Airbender mixed with Azkaban from Harry Potter, but for a bit of flair, the floors of the prison move independently like the cogs in a machine. Because of the alignment, they have three days to reach the top level, steal an airship, and fight the BBEG: The Warden (who since it's the Hoglidays might be wearing a furry green suit, or hell might just be the grinch himself...) before having to wait until the floors align again. I've built out a ton of NPCs, puzzles, and ways they can ascend the prison to freedom but I can't help but feel like the arch is missing something. Any and all your advice is welcomed for this new DM! I love the show and I'm so grateful you all inspired me to start playing dnd a few years ago and try my hand at DMing! Rolling for Performance, David. (p.s. Dice Christ as my witness, I got a 19!)
David Mourlam
2024-11-25 19:15:47 +0000 UTCFor Murph. I’m sure you’ve spoken on it before but your encounter design is some of the best I’ve ever heard. It’s both dynamic and engaging.

I had a question about a scene in Campaign 1 when the Band of Boobs were at the Crick and running out of the fog was a man in a Grinch costume, or hell, it's so realistic it might even be the Grinch himself. The Grinch runs up to you and says, "I know what you did." He then falls to the ground and starts convulsing. It looks like you might be able to save his life, but if you do you'll be infected by the Crickrot. What do you do?

I believe you mentioned being open to running a low fantasy, game of thrones type 2 shot. I really think you should give it a shot! We the people would love to hear about the world you build. Also, maybe Supreme Crit Justice will reconsider your nomination to join their ranks.

2024-11-25 19:03:35 +0000 UTCHey 2 crew! After your Pathfinder 2e 2 shot (too many twos to count) would you guys consider running a longer form campaign using the pathfinder ruleset? Side note: Emily's portrayal of an ancient 40 year old man with the worst sleep apnea made me nearly get into a car accident, and I really don't know how I would explain that to any parties involved.

2024-11-25 18:56:15 +0000 UTCHumble NADDministrators, I need you to weigh in on an ongoing debate I’ve been having with a friend for about 15 years. Please pay close attention to the phrasing: “What would kill a person faster — 3 wolves, or 1 grizzly bear?” We have asked countless people this question, and each new participant adds information to the debate. We’ve learned that it isn’t just about sheer strength or physical ability. Supposedly wolves stalk their prey for sometimes extended periods of time; we’ve learned that grizzly bears often will do several false charges before actually engaging in combat. There is also some debate over the intelligence of each animal and how easy it would be to either distract or dissuade it from attacking. This question is not about what is stronger or more dangerous. It is not about what would win in a battle against one another. It is about what will kill a human person FASTER. Thank you for your thoughtful participation and hopefully we can finally put this to bed. I would like you to consider both sides of this argument before I give you my answer - because I want to avoid any bias that may be given to the question asker. My thoughts below: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I have always felt that although there are 3 wolves with gnashing claws and jaws, I believe that once the battle commences with a grizzly you are pretty much toast. One hard swipe of the paw and you’re likely done. Their jaws are more powerful. I just think the sheer overwhelming power of a grizzly would bring you to a swifter end. Thank y’all, love y’all. P.S. what is your favourite cheap beer (this debate is most often more hotly contested after a handful of these).

Same for Murph; are you ever in the dark about main components of a character or the party as a whole that genuinely take you by surprise? I imagine that MOST things have to be shared with you as to not break the show, but I’m curious how much you all are surprised by each others characters.

2024-11-25 18:23:12 +0000 UTCHi guys. I just wrapped up session 6 of a campaign. I’m first time DM. Everyone seems to be having a lot of fun and my players told me they can’t wait till we come back from break so they can keep playing. I asked for some feedback from my players about how to improve and they mentioned that when I’m not DM I’m very good at yes anding the bit. But in game I can be a little “rigid”. I’m very nervous trying to keep track of everything behind the screen. So I don’t like distractions or getting interrupted for jokes so I guess they have a point. What do you guys recommend to help get out of my own head and bit with my players more?

2024-11-25 18:19:10 +0000 UTCWhich DnD class would you use to MIN-MAX your life? We asked this question on our podcast a while back, and whilst spellcasters seem the obvious chocie the martial classes get some crazy abilities. (I will also pay you a crisp $5, in the form of my existing ONE BIG BED membership, for a podcast shout out, though I totally understand if you don't want to encourage shout out requests.

Tanner Spriggs
2024-11-25 18:17:14 +0000 UTCOk, I asked this last time, but it didn’t get chosen and I’m super curious lol. My husband and I recently started watched Big Cities Greens, honestly just because of Caldwell (we excitedly yell “Caldwell Tanner!” when we see his name like we know him personally…we’re super cool). How much did Greens (especially Cricket) inspire the crick and vice versa. I feel like there had to be some overlap between the two!!! Also, it’s important to me for you know that if you play the call of Cthulhu rpg, all skill and fight rolls are made on a D100 and you want to get as low as possible. So a 2 would be an almost perfect roll. Might be fun for the 2 crew
Ashley Blake
2024-11-25 18:17:00 +0000 UTCHey gang! I was wondering if you guys have looked at the 2024 updates to 5e and what your initial impressions were. Personally my feelings are decidedly mixed. If you haven’t seen the updated players manual yet then I will pivot my question to asking if you agree that Jake is a sniveling coward for being the only one to not take a crack at DMing yet
jackalope503
2024-11-25 18:16:53 +0000 UTCI've heard Emily talking about Magic the Gathering alot lately! Do most of y'all Play? If so have you ever considered being on a Commander Play show (I.e Game knights, Shuffle up and Play, commander at home)? Also what Commander decks does Emily/everyone/ have?
Red Wynn
2024-11-25 18:15:47 +0000 UTCMy favourite stupid bit in the entirety of Naddpod was Emily's whole Porker Harris bit in that great two-shot. It is just so dumb, and I love it so much. What is the dumbest joke or bit you've done that you find the funniest.

GamingManiac
2024-11-25 18:12:49 +0000 UTCHello my dry dry toads! I have 2 question options for you: 1. Speaking of dry toads, how is the gang feeling about a Hexblood prequel mixed bag (I believe this idea was brought up during a short rest)? Caldwell will need to come up with some hexblood related character ideas, so what do you all think would be a fun prequel character pitch? 2. Would you rather be a wet toad or a dry frog?

2024-11-25 18:12:28 +0000 UTCA Musing For Murph: If it turned out "The Game" Triple H was a huge NADDPOD fan and demanded that there be a NADDPOD 4 Team Elimination Match at WrestleMania where each of you partners with a wrestler, who would you partner each of you up with, how would you ensure the most entertaining match that avoids X-Pac Heat, and who would you book to win the match? BTW The Undertaker is actually magic and will grant you all basic wrestling ability, ensure none of you get hurt, and can bring any wrestler living or dead back to their prime for this match so go wild with your picks.
Tom J
2024-11-25 18:12:28 +0000 UTCIn magic the gathering there are a lot of “Universes beyond” cards that pull from different IP. If NADDPOD were to have their characters become magic cards. What would you want your commanders mechanic/playstyles/colors be?
Randy
2024-11-25 18:12:14 +0000 UTCHappy almost Bananksgiving! (It hurt my brain to type that). I just finished a spooky season re-listen of campaign 2. At the campaign wrap up, you all talked a lot about returning to Eldermourne to follow up on threads like ocean adventures, Zirk's pact with the Winter fairy, and how the Endo Friendos are doing after the revolution. Any plans for more Eldermourne? I am also humbly requesting some gameplay with the Band of Boobs after their reunion with Hardwon. Much love and Happy Hoglidays!

Dave 3D Art
2024-11-25 18:10:08 +0000 UTCTo Murphious, it's mentioned that you mainly edits the podcast. I can imagine that must take quite a long time per episode. I know Eminity makes most of the music but do you source the SFX? Do you do mastering as well? What does the editing process look like, how long does it take and what editing software do you use? Has there ever been an issue in editing that required the gang to re-record something? Love and appreciate y’all!

I’m wondering when you’re going to DM a game for everyone or have you even thought about it and if you have what kind of setting would you have it in?

Nick
2024-11-25 18:08:54 +0000 UTCThis is a two part question. When you world build how do you settle on a theme that feels consistent? I will begin a campaign in a medieval setting but end up in Victorian steampunk cities an arc or two down the line. Part 2, Jake, what genre/aesthetic would you choose if you were to DM a mini arc?

2024-11-25 18:08:46 +0000 UTCHave any of you guys ever had a pet rabbit? I originally joined the Patreon because I thought I heard Emily and Murph had rabbits (turns out it was cats and possums) and now I’m a ride or die Naddpole
Jo Wright
2024-11-25 18:08:40 +0000 UTCHi y'all! Question for Murph - We saw Thiala supporters early on in campaign 3, but not again. Did you anticipate them playing a larger role in this campaign, or did you always intend for them to be a one-time thing?
Lauren Davis
2024-11-25 18:08:11 +0000 UTCYou’re given a bunch of dice sets to use for the next session. Are you just choosing a random set at this point, or do you have preferred colors or styles, even now, after all these years?

Danielle Carolla
2024-11-25 18:08:04 +0000 UTCYou’re wrapping up a long night out with friends. You Uber back with a friend that lives 5 blocks away from you, so you walk the difference to save a few bucks. Midway through the walk, you glance down an alley and see what seems to be a battered and bloodied Grinch and Sonic in a WWE style test of strength. It’s hard to tell if they’re real or costumes after a long night of inebriation. The Grinch notices you and calls “Help me! This thing is trying to mug me or something!” But Sonic replies “No, help me stop this criminal!” Tails and Max are nowhere to be seen, but you hear more scuffling down the alleyway. Your cellphone has no bars, what do you do?
Randy Pillay
2024-11-25 18:07:56 +0000 UTCquestion for murph (and probably emily) - how do you keep track of the repeated music cues that stay consistently tied to specific emotional beats throughout the different campaigns? i’m sure some are easier, like “a bastard no more” being for hardwon and “kingshammer” for weapons, but with some that are used less often but stay consistent, do you have notes or refer back to old episodes (or perhaps a secret third thing)? ps the music is always absolutely wonderful but in recent episodes has been especially devastating (in a good way)
alli
2024-11-25 18:07:52 +0000 UTCQuestion for the whole group: how do you think your younger selves would perceive who you are now? Do you think they’d be super excited or very confused at where you’ve ended up? Thank you!

2024-11-25 18:07:31 +0000 UTCHowdy ho neighborinos! I understand that Campaign 3 is wrapping up soon, and you've talked about the series going forward as shorter form campaigns. I'm curious, does this mean smaller adventures with characters we know? Or would it be more flavor of the week in terms of the story? Maybe we could see the return of Eldermourne's Honk Honkfish!
James Flannery
2024-11-25 18:07:27 +0000 UTCMy question is for Papa Smurph. You reference nu-metal bands a lot, and I dig it. Are you a fellow metalhead, and if so, what bands are you currently listening to?
Joey O'Day

2024-11-25 18:07:02 +0000 UTCHiya, I am nearing the finale of six years of dnd between two separate campaigns. I have an epic crossover planned with both these groups taking on Tiamat in a multi-stage WoW raid. It will certainly take us 10 hours or more. I ask Dice Christ's blessings for this final confrontation, and wonder if there was any advice you could give for endings. Finales are hard and, though I'm confident I can manage, I want to ensure all are satisfied when the dust settles.

skullswampy
2024-11-25 18:06:36 +0000 UTCI'm a big lore-head for fantasy worlds, so I wonder: has Murph written off the wall lore that hasn't seen the of day? Ex: In The Elderscrolls Vivec's spear is the penis of a deadric prince. Or one of the emperors is born from a hillside.

2024-11-25 18:06:25 +0000 UTCQuestion for the NADDPOD bard Emily! There's been some fun spooky / investigative music used in Twilight Sanctorum and parts of campaign 3. I adore that music and would love to listen to it outside of the podcast. Do you plan on releasing your newer music? Thanks!

2024-11-25 18:02:16 +0000 UTCHi there! love the pod and have for a long time. I'm an avid pathfinder DM and absolutely adore the system, so much so it's sometimes hard for me to go back to 5e. the pathfinder oneshot was a great time, is there a pathfinder campaign in naddpod's future?

2024-11-25 18:01:54 +0000 UTCHi Naddpoodles This is a little bit longer so I understand if you don’t include it, but I think would make for a really cool hearthside chat discussion now that the second main Bahumia campaign is coming to close. I recently re-listened to C1 , and was reminded me of a darker alternate universe version of the ending that I thought of back when I first finished C1, and I would like to hear everyone’s thoughts on what that would have meant for their characters. Moonshine: What if the solution with Pendergreens never came through and she instead got her way and played the sacrifice card and became the Cursed Queen of the Nine Hells? How would her otherwise kind and hospitable character progressively buckle under the crown’s pressure? Also what if she accepted the thinking cap’s and Tijuana’s statements of her being the Queen of the Elves, I felt Murph mentioned it a few times but Moonshine brushed it off. Hardwon: What if instead of being allowed to retire peacefully to the Crick like he wanted, he had to own up to the responsibility of being the first true wielder of the United Queens Hammer in an age and become the Bastard King of the Mountain and essentially be King of all Dwarvenkind. How would he handle that responsibility in addition to the vitriol in response to him being a half elf. Beverly: Beverly has always been a little zealous in how he viewed his idols, Pelor, Thialla and his father. However, throughout their adventures Thialla breaks her oath, kills Pelor, and his father joins forces with Akarot, aka the devil himself. Also remember that Beverly almost joined up himself with both Thialla and Akarot on separate occasions. Deeply affected by the loss of everyone he looked up to I think his naturally zealous nature might eventually see the solution as being having to rise to Godhood himself, becoming the Gilded God (I got gilded from Toegold), and become what those he looked up to couldn’t live up to. Would he became twisted by power like Thialla or be cool like Pelor?

2024-11-25 18:01:17 +0000 UTCAnimorphs related question for the crew: there is a 'Prince Jake' running joke throughout the series. Their alien buddy always calls Jake 'Prince Jake,' to which Jake responds 'Dont call me Prince.' The alien invariably responds 'Yes, Prince.' To the rest of the crew: does Murph spoiling Animorphs come off as kind of intentional given the context of a high-status Jake bit?

2024-11-25 18:01:00 +0000 UTCHas Murph ever changed the amount health of an enemy. Something like: Hardwon attacks an enemy and it would live with 1 hp but it would be so cinematic that Hardone would kill them right know so Murph made the enemy to have less hp? Bonus question: Will we get more Trinyvale Crossovers. Will the Triplets ever visit Eldermourne? Greetings from Germany I love you guys.
Lulu_ Wi_
2024-11-25 18:00:58 +0000 UTCWhen Campaign 3 was first being teased - Mothership was originally going to be called "Alan Inc" (Pronounced like Alanis from Campaign 1). Because of this - I always thought Alanis was going to pop up at some point throughout the campaign and have some level of responsibility for creating Alexandrite. Was that ever a part of the plan? When did the change from Alan Inc. to Mothership happen in the creative process?

Connor Pryor
2024-11-25 17:59:54 +0000 UTCIt's Christmas Day in Whoville, and you're enjoying a lovely feast with your family, and the Grinch. After he inexplicably saved Christmas, it only seemed right to invite him to enjoy the day. But then it hits you like age 40 hit Cinnamon. The Grinch's originally terrible demeanor changing to sudden and exuberant support of Christmas could be explained by microcardia, and then a cardiac event during the period of exertion trying to push the sleigh. As the greatest cardiac surgeon Whoville has ever seen, you feel obligated to help this strange furry green man. You rush the Grinch to Whoville memorial hospital for an emergency series of tests where your worst fears are confirmed. Without a heart transplant within 48 hours, the Grinch will die. The odds of finding a matching donor heart within this time period are astronomically low. You tell your wife, the hospital's Chief of Medicine, the grim news. To which she responds, "If it were me, I would want to know. But the odds of saving him are so low, and he's finally truly happy. Maybe it's best to let him go with a smile on his face." While you're considering whether or not to let the Grinch die happy and ignorant, you hear a comically loud "WHOOPSIE DAISY" from outside. Almost immediately after, you see a furry green man with accents of grey swing to his death from a string of Christmas lights he seemed to be attempting to steal from the hospital. ID found on the body is that of one Damien Grunch, the Grinch's father. Testing concludes that the Grinch's father is indeed a match for a heart transplant, and had a healthy heart. One problem: He wasn't an organ donor. Do you steal his father's heart, saving the Grinch, but returning him to his Grinchy self? Or do you let the Grinch pass, unaware he ever could have survived, but still knowing true joy?

Totally Offside
2024-11-25 17:59:05 +0000 UTCHello to everyone, This question is mainly directed at Murph but the others with DM experience (looking at everyone but my buddy Jorts, sorry) - When you're building the framework for a campaign and world, how do you work out the scaling of challenge ratings and player levels to keep players engaged? I'm building a world for my daughters to play in for their first time playing D&D and I want to make sure they are getting to experience the entire 1-20 level spectrum (because who doesn't want to put the power of a wish spell in a 5 year old's hands?) Thank you so much for your time!

2024-11-25 17:58:58 +0000 UTCAs this is the one year anniversary of you guys answering my "which bird would you want to kill you" question, I believe it would be fitting to ask another fowl one.

We all know he had Shield as his first level spell, but he should have gotten two cantrips as well and I never recall him using any. Did you take cantrips? If so what were they? If not and it was just a miss, what would you take now that you’ve played more?

2024-11-25 17:56:44 +0000 UTCFor the entire 2 crew! What up from crittsburgh PA! (when are you coming back?) But for my actual question, would you consider jumping into the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay from cubicle 7 as one of the systems to try out? I think Murphs’ love for Warhammer would make it a cool universe for you all to play in.

2024-11-25 17:56:44 +0000 UTCHowdy 2 Crew, this is a rather specific question that I think Murph can answer. If Campaign 3 is Final Fantasy VII, and Hot Boy Summer is Final Fantasy X2 which Final Fantasy are campaigns 1, and 2? Also, how is Zinkie the Zard doing?

2024-11-25 17:56:39 +0000 UTCNot a dnd question BUT if you guys had to choose one person in this group to sacrifice who would it be

2024-11-25 17:56:38 +0000 UTCEveryone always asks Jake what kind of campaign he would want to DM, but screw that question! Jake, what kind of campaign would you want to “force” Emily, Murph, or Caldwell to run for you?

2024-11-25 17:56:32 +0000 UTCIf you guys went to Blazing Babe (Faechella, Emo Nevers Dies) what would you wear?
Hayley Carter
2024-11-25 17:56:31 +0000 UTCA little bit of a lore question: Murph and Emily have done a really good job making lore for eladrins. We know Callie is a spring eladrin, her mother is winter, and her sister is summer, so is there a certain season individual eladrin are born as? Does that influence their personalities or does their personality influence the season that they eventually grow into as their main form?
James Wagner
2024-11-25 17:56:30 +0000 UTCWhat systems are you thinking of trying next, other than pathfinder? Maybe Call of Cathulu or Mutants and Masterminds? Is there any TTRPG that you would definitely not wanna play? Also, is the video game still being worked on? Just curious Love y’all like a celebrity, mwah
Jacob LeBouff
2024-11-25 17:56:27 +0000 UTCWith another campaign coming close to the end, what have you all seen, discussed, planned, or been inspired by when thinking of an all new campaign? Would it be strange to leave bahumia?
Jesse Dunlap

2024-11-25 17:56:13 +0000 UTCIf you all did a one shot everyone picking a character from one of the different mini campaigns and campaigns with no doubles across who would each of you choose as your character and how do you think they’d interact?

David
2024-11-25 17:55:19 +0000 UTCWhat's yalls process for recording short rests? I know they're not immediately after the episode, so do you relisten before recording the SR? Does Murph write a recap, everyone just tries to remember, etc.? PS hate the show never listen to it
