Listening to this in the year of our gourd 2023 when the show has just fallen apart completely and I have to wonder what Murph thinks of it now 🥲
2024-01-25 02:17:56 +0000 UTCBob Ross chill Murph needs to show up more often, I almost died laughing!

2024-01-11 21:39:53 +0000 UTCIt's probably something that got mentioned somewhere many years ago, but the guy that plays Jaskier makes music professionally along with someone else as The Amazing Devil, and they are truly fantastic on a vibe similar to some of Emily's music.
2023-09-01 08:31:29 +0000 UTCThe first time I heard about the Jill tucker thing was the first time I watched a "Hardwon's Painting party" and I legit was in shock because his delivery was so deadpan 😂 I wasn't for sure it was a joke for like 3 weeks.
2022-10-13 18:52:03 +0000 UTCJaskier is Polish for "buttercup." Apparently the folks who translated the books felt "Buttercup" didn't quite hit the mark for the character in English, so they localized it as "Dandelion" to keep the feel.

2020-08-10 21:51:13 +0000 UTCI watched the entire season of The Witcher just so I can listen to this episode. No "Ragrets"
2020-04-24 23:28:59 +0000 UTCI would definitely agree with that for their podcast characters and Murph as DM. 🖖🔥

2020-03-13 14:14:45 +0000 UTCCaldwell = Air Bender Emily = Water Bender (Swamp variant) Jake = Fire/Earth Bender (Lava variant) Murph = Earth Bender (Metal variant)
2020-03-13 14:11:59 +0000 UTCIf Murph were to be anything in Avatar, it would be the cabbage salesman.
2020-03-13 14:09:16 +0000 UTC@murph you gotta watch avatar dude! One of the greatest shows ever! The ideas represented work so well for dnd too

2020-03-04 22:11:48 +0000 UTCI am a little salty that they have such high praises for The Witcher (which is deserved) but razz so hard on the Warcraft movie.

2020-03-04 20:55:22 +0000 UTCI'm bummed that Vilgefortz is a turncoat, 'cause it's so easy for POC to be coded as bad guys, but also because that actor is hot as hell.

2020-03-04 17:37:23 +0000 UTCRose for Caldwell bringing up ATLA. I can absolutely see Emily as a water bender. Murph and Caldwell as earth benders. And Jake, the honourable role of Cabbage vendor.
Little one
2020-03-04 13:21:13 +0000 UTCAvatar is a masterpiece. Murph needs to watch it.

2020-03-03 03:35:17 +0000 UTCLOL at signs. When people say they’re a water sign or fire, etc. they’re talking about their zodiac signs (astrology). Alternatively you can talk about Chinese zodiac, and each one also has its own element depending on the year. Ex. 1988 = earth dragon, I think 1986 is fire tiger fwiw.

2020-03-02 20:59:23 +0000 UTCI loved all of the 8BBC energy this Mixed Bag
Devin Awe
2020-03-02 20:37:36 +0000 UTCSo cool! He even posted on there that there should be an Oscar for best supporting horse!

2020-03-02 18:41:49 +0000 UTCEmily needs to follow Cavill on IG, he posts updates about his training with the horses that play Roach
Leslie Cedeño
2020-03-02 18:28:40 +0000 UTCJaskier was the original polish name that basically means yellow flower
Sawyer Rogers
2020-03-02 17:42:25 +0000 UTCChill Murph made me lol at my desk. I'm with you Jake, that was uncomfortable.
Brian Jones
2020-03-02 17:19:33 +0000 UTCFor the next bag of holding could you watch the ORIGINAL Witcher? It’s a polish film made in 2001 called The Hexer :p
frazninja
2020-03-02 13:37:01 +0000 UTCHey guys, great mixed bag! I think Jaskier was named as such because it is the Polish for Dandelion, which is of course the native language of the original writer :) Also, please watch Avatar, air bender series Murph (not the film), it is an absolute brilliant piece of narrative!
Jenn Richards
2020-03-02 13:16:29 +0000 UTCOH my god, Murph you would LOVE the last air bender. I can't believe you haven't seen it!!
Maddy96
2020-03-02 08:11:40 +0000 UTCNext bag of holding should definitely be Avatar: The Last Airbender!!
2020-03-02 07:01:13 +0000 UTCThe Djin 3 wishes for tonic joke was great

2020-03-02 04:32:51 +0000 UTCJake was a pinch of himself today
The Master
2020-03-02 03:54:53 +0000 UTCGotta mixed bag the expanse. One of the best shows out right now. and the first two books I read are really great.
David Benson
2020-03-01 23:48:22 +0000 UTCI don’t even like anime a whole lot but Avatar the Last Airbender is literally the greatest story ever told. Uhhhhh (mixed) BAG IT!
Fighting Favorites - The Favorite Things Podcast!
2020-03-01 23:46:46 +0000 UTCLoved the Witcher. Watching the season twice really helped me resolve the timeline. They just recently cast the actor playing Vesemir for season 2!
Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord
2020-03-01 22:44:50 +0000 UTCCaldwell is an earth sign, Em & Jake are fire, and Murph is air.

2020-03-01 21:08:11 +0000 UTCPlease GOD watch avatar the last airbender on mixed bag
2020-03-01 20:32:49 +0000 UTCI can not be the only one who sung along with them when they started sing "Toss a Coin To Your Witcher". I could hear my husband's eyes rolling
Amy Driver
2020-03-01 19:49:18 +0000 UTCDamnit I had to pull over while listening to this. “Total Party Chill” from Caldwell broke me.
2020-03-01 19:11:37 +0000 UTCAnyone else think it's kinda crazy that murph has never seen avatar? I'd love an avatar pilot mixed bag
2020-03-01 19:09:48 +0000 UTCThe sylvan guy wasnt actually CGI! It was all prosthetics! They amazed me with that.
2020-03-01 18:23:03 +0000 UTCAvatar the Last Airbender is so good. I see myself as an Earth bender personally
Dave Johnson
2020-03-01 18:15:05 +0000 UTCAlso The Expanse IS SO GOOD
Adam Sutton
2020-03-01 17:52:26 +0000 UTCThis is literally my entire opinion on the whole series and I’m just amazed at how y’all nailed it. Bravo. Can’t wait for the season 2 review where it’s all just basically heavy breathing.
Adam Sutton
2020-03-01 17:51:41 +0000 UTCGood show. Good podcast
Ben Delahay
2020-03-01 17:23:22 +0000 UTCCaldwell I honestly think that this "total party chill" joke is one of your greatest ever!
Garga Lenoir
2020-03-01 16:19:43 +0000 UTCMurph needs to listen to Avatar. Truly a great fantasy series.
2020-03-01 15:39:33 +0000 UTCSuper on board for the fantasy done right podcast
Sawyer Rogers
2020-03-01 10:01:26 +0000 UTCEmily brought up the Expanse and after season 1 plus I think season 2 premier it lost me. Know it is a good series just lost my interest. They also bring up Buffy so now I'm wandering if they've seen Firefly and Serenity. That's one mix bag review about fantasy done right I would love to hear.
Canid
2020-03-01 09:50:28 +0000 UTC... so watch the show? They talk about the Witcher all the time on the short rests, get with it lol.
Bobby Capella
2020-03-01 09:18:41 +0000 UTCI really don't mean to "Um, actually.." you but it means Buttercup in Polish. Very much same energy though
Edi Javoric
2020-03-01 09:08:36 +0000 UTCI am so bummed right now. I’m sure a lot of people are happy, but I kinda paid for the boobs to recap a show I did not watch. It was mildly funny...but considering I had no point of reference since I didn’t watch the show...it was disappointing.
All Pulp! No Juice!
2020-03-01 08:51:28 +0000 UTCJaskier in Polish means Dandelion and The Witcher series was originally written in Polish
Michael Shelley
2020-03-01 08:47:17 +0000 UTCYou are all Chaotic Evil with various excuses. My Lawful Good Cleric judges you.
