Short Rest: NADDPOD Live in Manchester

This was probably the most boring episode. All they did was walk in the building then walk out and nothing happened I know it's cool they kept rolling 20s but it was just so bored

I have heard of wet Willie's though - it's a boys in a children's playground thing. I thought it was a British thing...

So in the UK, we don't have any sort of wet willy equivalent 😂 and willy is a childish word for dick, so I see why that didn't go down well. The first time I heard about a wet willy was on teen titans and I remember being distinctly grossed out 😂 I'm honestly gutted I missed the UK live shows, keeping my fingers crossed for another tour!

Melissa 'Mj' Fordos

No I agree with Emily a 20 on initiative is a waste. Though I never enjoy rolling high on initiative anyway because after one round it literally doesn't matter

WARNING GROSS INFO ABOUT SHOE FUSE: Hi, I'm an ER nurse and I have seen shoe fuse. Unfortunately, some people do not take of their shoes pretty much at all. When this condition is coupled with having certain chronic illnesses such as diabetes or peripheral vascular disease, the foot basically rotts within the shoe. I have seen a boot be taken off with the foot remaining inside. Shoe fuse is no joke lol I know this is a new comment on an old post but I just recently subscribed. Love the show!

I'm only just listening now, and I'm in my 30s from near Manchester, Uk. I've heard of wet Willie's. Don't know why you got a strange response! I actually have an aversion to people touching my ears because my friends, my little brother and cousins used to do this to everyone all of the time!

I'm Irish and wet willies are definitely a thing there... I'm also sure I've met some Brits who knew what they were... 🤷🏻‍♀️

As an English national, I've NEVER heard or seen anyone ever 'wet willy' anyone and I've lived all over the UK and work with young people.

I am from the UK, and we 100% call that wet willy too. Those people were weird.

Yeah I guess this is a good place to say that I’m shipping Ren and Moonshine. So hot.

Sorry 188,880 minutes

18,880 minutes baby! Thanks so much for an awesome year!

Hey man, I get the whole “Pains or playing a teen” I constantly do the dumbest shit and they think she’s adorable and act like a babysitter. I can literally get away with making a horrible deal to buy out warlocks soul and they’re just like “oh classic Sybil she’ll learn one day, silly emotional teen” I reminded them that if she was twenty and did that, they would have left her for dead... P.S to Caldwell: I’m also the one making the horribly inappropriate jokes and THEY have to remind me my character is 16 lol

Nikki Lynn

Emily fairy garden is exactly what you think it was

Alyssa

I went to this show, had to catch a train and my friend listened to the short rest and is mad that I didn’t wait around to get Jake to call him an ass on WhatsApp

Charlie

Ok, so we have 'wet willies' in Australia and I'm pretty sure the whole point of the name is that it's meant to gross you out, thinking of a literal wet penis in your ear. I never liked them, they disturbed me. Hahaha

Emily

Teenage Dirtbag is my jam ! I was Screaming!

Barback of Penance

I just realized Emily’s music is in Spotify and I have to say Doomsday Diaries: A Love Song for Any Apocalyptic Scenario is a damn amazing album

Turner Tush

I live in a place called the Iron Range in northern Minnesota and I've never rolled less than a natural 19.

I think a nat20 initiative should give advantage on the first attack roll

Samuel Jasek

Scale of 1-10, how serious were you about that Seattle show idea next year? Please come back! I have gotten so many more friends addicted to NADDPod since your first show here and they need to see you!

DungeonMama

Over 100000 minutes listening to NADDPOD and I'm not at all ashamed

Jason Garrett

Not in Manchester, I'm in Wales but I can tell you with so much certainty that I am not getting any of that good dice roll luck. Really vibing with Great Critain, though

Guys, ketchup is definitely a thing over here, probably to the same extent that it is in America. It sounds like you just ended up in an extremely bad kebab shop in the middle of town on a Saturday night which, honestly, is kind of the ultimate Manchester experience.

Ryan Coogan

Yep! I did the exact same thing

Yo murph, #dullbuzz for sure

Brandon

There was an episode of Call the Midwife which literally features shoe-fuse 😳

Whitney Peterson

In our last D&D session I rolled a nat 20 on animal handling. I now have a familiar!

Dave Johnson

Now I want to hear the wet willy part I wanna feel the awkward energy.

I'm British and we knew about Wet Willies from watching American cartoons like Simpsons. I had always assumed it was a penis joke, a finger being like a willy, even when I was like 10 years old. Are you telling me American's don't think like that....WOW.

James Lloyd

Nat 20 on initiative is amazing

Sawyer Rogers

I cosplayed as Alanis at the Manchester show and forced my partner to go as Ulfgar 😂 gutted we didn't hang around long enough at the end to meet the Boobs, the venue said there wasn't gonna be a meet and greet so we kinda just wandered off 😭 Also Emily: fairy garden was funny because her accent sounded like she was saying "furry garden", which isn't an established vaginal euphemism but it definitely sounds like one

Emmie

Shoutout to all the cosplayers for helping get Alanis a bigger part in the show! Couldn't imagine the story without that marijuana magician / weed wizard / cannabis caster / stoned sorceress / hemp hypnotist(?) / dopy diviner / wet willy

When you come back to Seattle, if you need a greasy spoon after the show, there's a place called Beth's Cafe that's open 24hrs.

This live show is my absolute highlight of 2019! The show itself was obviously amazing, but getting to meet the boobs and making new Naddpole friends definitely gets my rose. It was honestly a perfect night! ❤️

Josnak

Not sure how common this is, but in past campaigns I've played we made it so a nat 20 on initiative gave you advantage on your first attack, and nat 1 disadvantage. Definitely felt like something was missing when playing without that rule

Perrin Swanson

Any word on if Philly or Atlanta are going to get released at some point? I know people would love to hear Atlanta even though it’s missing the end (#StanJeremiahBanshee)

Kestrel

I’m from Manchester and I can confirm that I roll like shit. Caldwell is just a truly blessed individual. He has the touch.

Ryan Coogan

So sad I couldn't make it. Had my ticket and everything but couldn't figure out travel and time off :( hope you guys make it back to the UK some day!!
