Lol matt wouldn't care about the nobody's in kingdom hearts like roxas

the chompie man

Coming back to comment. I completely missed the idea that Beth could be anything other than human. All of the robot and electric type puns and jokes are so unbelievably good. I had to go back and relisten immediately after and just.. so fkin good

Tony Loch

You know what, Matt convinced me

Wesley Harney

I came to say how much I respect Mr Anthony Burch for playing Hades II on his steam deck just before live shows, and also to request a very brief recap of his fave build(s)

Drucilla Saxton-Wallace

Is Freddie talking about Pepperbellypete??

Ashten Arnett

Wanted to jump in the comments to say that Beth having made Trudy a perfect 1950 robot house wife was the great twist for this season. Women can be women!

Sheriff Teddy

Even if people guessed the robot twist, I thought all of the choices Beth made were really fun and clever. She has really committed to the role and Trudy has had some really amazing scenes

Regarding junk food, I think Scotland has everyone beat. A pizza crunch supper slathered in chip shop gravy is absolute top-tier junk food. It feels wrong to eat it, you can feel that it is doing your body absolutely no good, but it heals the soul.

Claire Wilson

As a centrist, I completely agree with the amount of leftist and rightist ideals in this podcast about a podcast

Bearonavirus

Do amoeba have pain receptors? If not, what's the difference between them and a robot?

Bearonavirus

"It's fascinating to me how we project our humanity on to things that are nothing like us at all" well if that's the case would it be wrong for someone not to care for animals because they don't believe they're anything like humans at all?

Bearonavirus

Now I wanna know how Freddie’s friend would feel watching a wuxia drama where more often than not the actors are dubbed over by VAs even when they’re speaking the same language. Like would he notice that that’s not Wang Yibo’s voice speaking as Lan Wangji?? Would it tear him out of the story??? (I tend to think Mandarin-speaking VAs have a peculiarly difficult job in that they’re basically doing ADR for an entire fucking show and if you don’t know that going in/aren’t looking for it then it’s incredibly convincing to watch. Such a subtle and difficult skill)

Savannah Stoehr

Honestly, Matt. Same. I would die for an amoeba before I die for a robot.

Cameron Davis

As a ginger, my drag name would be Firé Crotché, because my pussy is always fire.

Samuel Smith

My guess is two.

Danielle McCool

I hear beans on toast and I just picture the first topping of a torta

the chompie man

Same I thought the stutters was Beth slipping over words but it was intentional and makes sense

the chompie man

1st no mention of the Jetsons robot when discussing female robots 2nd is it 2.5 children because one is also a robot lol

the chompie man

The point of that black mirror episode is that it’s their consciousness, a true version of themselves, that has been taken against their consent and transposed into a World to be used as dolls. The construct of cookies are covered in White Christmas, highly recommend it

Shel B Kennas 1st fav sprite girl! Wishing a Merry Mariachi to Emily Happy Fucking Bday to Jork hope you both had perfect days

About the PB&J thing... Remember when Dawn on Buffy got a Peanut Butter and Salami sandwich? After watching that (~ 20 years ago) I actually tried it and it turned out to be pretty fucking awesome!

Turaqu - The Thing that goes Doink in the Anime

Beth your part about how women robots are made for men is incredible!!

Laeticia

Matt needs to watch Measure of a man, Picard will change him

Quantum OFZENTRIX

Unfortunately Lady MAGA exists so Matt would def get confused for her

Devon Willingham

If it makes you feel better Beth, I had no idea Trudy was a robot until after the neck stabbing

Miguel Angel Pena

tbf I'm pretty sure American beans taste rlly different than over here

Daisy Terry

As someone who edits for the wiki and heard “charged with battery” and preceded that information with “Trudy has actually been arrested before!” When editing the page… idek what to say from there. Hope that helped?

Natalie Rose

Yup, Freddie definitely played it as confused but going with the flow 😅

Caramelly

Robots fit into this setting so well though! I consider it a gift to the DM and a gift to the player.

Marcel Cabato

Jelly in the UK means Jell-o

alpha reaperion

Robots need love too! I need that ramen, and egg, and chilli (from any vehicle).

Maximum S Labrador

Matt has clearly never played SOMA

Devin

Fuck yea Anthony, Hades II is great! I'm getting ready to start playing Shin Megami V: vengeance. Did you guys play through Senua's Saga?!? Fuck. Only 6 hours, but it's the greatest looking game ever made, plus the psychological aspect of it is still on par with my favorite game ever, Senua's Sacrifice . . I, really like video games. Also, I'm not a fan of gacha games, but Honkai: Star Rail is pretty incredible. A robot told me my mom's an antiquety.

withinmyself

I feel like if this had actually been a movie, maybe it would've been more obvious depending on how the actors moved and came across in these scenes, but here, I too completely did not expect any sort of twist with Beth's character. Thought she was just being Beth, I mean, Ron was a weird fucking character too. In fact, I would've guessed Ron was a robot before Trudy.

withinmyself

Got my deck of daddy things signed by you guys, and i didn't realize I shared initials with Anthony until I looked down and it looked like I had signed it myself. 10/10 great tour, love you guys

ADoubleEgg

Yeah, no

Jerm25

Robot/Non-human characters tend to be my favourites in all of media. Especially the ones that play with the idea of most robots being made in the form of women/to be pleasing to men. Excited to see where Trudy goes in the future :D

Vyrion-157

As someone who picks up on movie stuff really well I was surprised that I did not pick up on the robot thing. I thought she was hiding stuff well but I thought she was lobotomised or something creepy going on and not robots. I felt stupid because of course robot, the husband is an inventor it made sense. But my god the scene of him chucking her into the pit with all the other robots I was loving this was so creepy!

Yoka

I would like to see his take on Transformers because technically they have souls

Kingzley Sparkman

matt should look up chappel roan

Blake Willert

Spell it Vulfpeck, I really like some of their stuff

Kirby Martino

beth, i hope you don’t feel too bad about people guessing the robot thing. i did pick up on it almost first thing, but then when you kept dropping clues it still didn’t feel obvious at all. when i heard “charged with battery” my first thought was honestly that you might have been reading people’s theories and were being mysterious on purpose, because it still could have had lots of other explanations. i loved it. finding out she really WAS a robot was so fun. i also loved what you said about female robots being portrayed as objects for the use of/enjoyment of men. i love having a stepford wife character in a cosmic horror story set in the 50s specifically for that reason. i’ve honestly been looking for horror movies that capture the same vibe, because i can’t get enough! it’s something i relate to and i’m loving exploring the fear. i love trudy, and if anyone has any similar horror recommendations i would love to hear!

Hannah C

I’ve never felt more seen than Anthony talking about behaviour on tour. that’s legit me all the time

dagny

Also I feel like I’m crazy, can anyone tell me at what point in the episode penny gets mentioned? I don’t remember that at all

Chris’s Secret 3rd Testicle

Same. Just thought Tucker stabbed her

Chris’s Secret 3rd Testicle

Am I the only one that didn’t get that Trudy was a robot? I just thought he stabbed her

Chris’s Secret 3rd Testicle

I can see what you mean and you're more likely correct. But I wanna think of it as "less is more" and understanding who Francis is as we know him so far. I guess the only other route would be for Francis to stand up for himself after having the flashback. Because then it might bring himself some pride.

eatmygerms

Loving the job Will is doing on this season. It’s a different heat but it’s very very good!

Philip Enders Arden

Im really satisfied with Anthony's rebuttal to Matt's robot hot take

Jacob B.

Siraj Abu-Shaaban

Love the robot reveal. I guessed it because trudy reminds me of 7 of 9 except with socialization in the 50s. As a person who gets stuck on words a lot, those gliches were also a very good clue (as in they were very close to just a natrually ditzy person with no social awareness.... and it's so very human but also very off. If I lose thoughts frequently I try and socially cover for them... trudy doesn't therefore she seemed more robotic to me but it was only because of the frequency and repeated verbal glich. Same type of error solved in the same way each time... humans aren't that consistent). But I also was uncertain because being robotic could have been an acting choice and some commentary on women in the 50s. As in trudy had internalized all societal expectations so hard that it broke her and now she has a very deeply ingrained mask of what she thinks everyone wants. ... and maybe her secret was she runs a small crime network on the side. Or she could have just been an autistic woman in the 50s. There were options but robot made the most sense and I can't wait to see where her story goes!

Katie Schlasner

CHARGED with BATTERY 😭 HOW DID I NOT SEE THAT

Lazaretto

Beth, I didn’t know you were a robot and the surprise got me so good job 👍🏽

Yadi bo Body

Don’t get me wrong, I LOVED the entirety of Anthony’s flashback but to give him props for anything other than the plagiarized encyclopedias and power fantasy dreamis crazy because it was just him not wanting to roleplay lol…

Jake Lee

Anyone else genuinely a little repulsed by Matt's insanely reductionist takes on robotic consciousness? Like obviously this isn't a real world issue, it's not that big of a deal, but just the utter confidence in rejecting someone's personhood bc they "don't have a soul" jfc. That's what a catholic upbringing will do to a mofo I guess.

M W

The transformers fandom is deeply disappointed with Matt smh XD

Autumn Kamibayashiyama

I couldn't find fearless flowers (Google sent me to a bunch of gardening accounts) or wolf pack. I'm always looking for new music. Does anyone have any links?

Renee

Improv can be super draining. Glad yall had fun and got paid bb!!

Wholesomethot

Hey Pacey is my name!

Pacey

Sleepaway Camp also blessed us with one of the best lines, in response to someone being told to eat shit and die, they said, “Eat shit and live, Bill.”

Three Kobolds in a Trenchcoat

matt cancelled for excessive t*ylor sw*ft defense

Leah Kathleen

In real life I 100% agree with Matt about robots but I employ temporary suspension of beliefs for fictional robots :/ they’re some of the best characters

Esme Singer

When is the next kingdom dad monster?

Papa Powell

Hilarity is motivation

I hate Italians

Agreed

I hate Italians

When is the next stretch goal? The last one was the murder on a blimp one right?

I hate Italians

Omg I thought I was the only person who thought Trudy was aunt Martha from sleep away camp!!!!

Freya Hogarth

OMG HOW DID I JUST GET THAT IT'S KELSEY *GRAMMAR*, AND SHES WRITING AN ENCYCLOPEDIA AND IS A TEACHER?! okay, not a dictionary, but it's amazing and I am apparently so oblivious 😂

Bex Boster

Was the chili guy Pepper Belly Pete?

RocknRolla

I really thought that Trudy had been Clockwork Oranged from when she said “I’m not going back” - very excited to see where Beth goes with it

Ryderius

1. loved everyones secrets so far, cant wait to hear frances' 2. im wishing for a particular set of jets to explode rn. whether anyone specific is on one is up to god

Jesse West

No Kirby is named after a curb (where they were found by Beth)

Locklyn

I just thought she got stabbed with the screwdriver 🪛. I mean whuuuuut

Nicolas Heidtbrink

Trudy is a bot?????? I never picked up on that lmfao

CatTV

Same lmao

Jakob Medlin

I didn't immediately think it but when they did the scene at Trudy's house with the kids I wasije "oh stepford wife.... Right right right." But I love it. Every time you say "2.5 children" I die.

Dj Travioli

Beth: yeah, people guessed it right away Me: oh, so I’m just dumb I was AGHAST at the reveal.

Anna

I’m surprised. I feel like it was pretty obvious that Tony wasn’t a communist with his confused-but-rolling-with-it energy that he was exuding in his “yes…”

Andrew

he would slap her hahah

petra

That's what I'm most excited for this season, Trudy is so interesting to me. To see this topic explored is so interesting, and especially in a setting where misogyny is far more overt. I really think Trudy might become my favorite character in media in general. I can just see so clearly the thought, care, and love put into her from Beth, and it comes together so perfectly. God I can't even put into words everything I think. Man.

Grrafe

Absolutely right there with ya. Just seemed liked Tony's usual bs lol

WesKane, do the patron names seem a lil obsessed with Shaun's hormones

Wait I kind of struggle with audio- What does Matt say at one point- It starts with “If beth said that to me I would-“ But I cant make out the rest of the sentence 😂 can someone help

Amara Davidson

So excited to see Beth playing a robot, it was a great idea. Love the whole group, the characters are really coming along.

WesKane, do the patron names seem a lil obsessed with Shaun's hormones

Freddie’s friend must have HATED Power Rangers as a kid. 🤣

Max Wilson

As a bi man with autism and cats, I generally relate to Anthony, but really felt it when Matt was complimenting his ability to disassociate into video games or a book in social situations. 😂👍

Brain in a slightly larger than average jar

I'm surprised people though Tony was a communist from the 'yes'. I really just took it as typical Freddy energy of Tony being thrown this wild moment and just rolling with it to try and take control (to some degree) of it.

Adam Burt

Anthony, I recommended watching MJF vs Rush tho, it's a fight with PPV energy. XD

streetdreams

Being at the live show with the slap fight was absolutely insane, but to find out it was fully improv???? Fucking phenomenal

Logan Paillaman

Will being a sea shanty dude. Fucking perfect. My kids like to listen to Wellerman when they brush their teeth.

Heather Mutchler

Is Kirby named after the Aesop Rock song/cat?

Maladapted

Genuinely frustrating how quickly “the revisor” came and went. Would love to see it come back in some form. Just too much fun!

James Byrne

Idea (at least for a lie): Kelcie has the encyclopedias for her research on the entry on encyclopedias lol I really enjoyed the robot reveal and wasn't even guessing that was going to happen! It was a great choice and I'm so excited to see what y'all do with the characters! Listening to Will's interrogation scene made me feel like a proud parent watching their kid doing a solo and their middle school choir recital like I'm so proud

Maeson Banks

Beth I’m sorry for guessing that Trudy is a robot! I didn’t mean to upset you 👉👈🥺

Daniel Vara

I absolutely left the episode thinking Tony was a communist. I was thinking how the communist becoming a used car salesman might give him the ability to be the worst kind of capitalist to people to just be a dick.

Colin M.

The fact Trudy is a robot completely escaped me until the reveal. It got me by surprise.

Darryl Holiday II

I understand not empathizing with real life robots. Who gives a shit if some metal that moves gets hurt or destroyed. But to not care in a fictional setting is wild. Like it depends on the story. Not even the property but the actual story. In Star Wars I didn’t really care about the robot in Solo dying, but I thought K2 in Rogue One was touching. Saying you can’t connect with a character because of what they are at it’s base is wild. You aren’t meeting the character or the story on its terms and are applying some weird logic to get around that.

The Wizard Syndicate

Matt’s kid is going to come home with a robot prom date one day and he’s going to have to really have to explain this toaster thing again.

Fearne Pérez

As a SAHM who suffers with PPD, I love Trudy and the robot connection cause boy do I relate

Caitlyn Russell

Was waiting for this ep! Love the robot reveal

Aimee Biggerstaff

My Psychology capstone class was all about the question of consciousness. Thanks for the PTSD today hahaha

Angela Shrader

1) raised by wolves is my favorite female robot portrayal but problematic in parts 2) Nintendo switch is the perfect drag persona 3) thank you to Will for reminding me to listen to the Longest Johns today

Katherine

If Anthony slapped Beth live I would have laughed so hard wdym

Nash Parsons

Love Hades 2.

MechanizedMan

Will trying to come for Trixie's brand ?

Justthingstbh

Trudy had that Stepford Wives vibe from episode 1. The reveal at the end of the episode was amazing!

Christopher Mihatsch

Reminds me of the Pop Culture Detective essay where he pointed out that one of the only female coded Droids in Star Wars (L3-37) was immediately painted as ridiculous and over the top and as not to be taken seriously. The whole episode is interesting, talking about how inconsistent Star Wars is with when their droids are supposed to be human-like and when they are just machines.

streetdreams

I can recommend the book 'Alone Together: why we expect more from technology than from eachother' for anyone interested in human/robot social dynamics. It's so interesting and left me with a similar bias as Matt due to how eager humans are to project connection and affection onto any apparatus that vaguely appears alive.

Pernille Keijzer

I'm so stupid I didn't clock the robot hints at all. I was legit just thinking it was that jargon like that may have been popular in this time period because of sci-fi serials and cartoons like the Jetsons. Recharge the batteries as an idiom, etc.

Nora Hopeless

during my workout i just listen to sons and sonsability on loop

Joshua Johnso

loved beth’s discussion on robot feminism. I often think about how many of our default robot ‘helper’ voices (such as Siri and google maps) are set as feminine voices too.

petra

Awwww I love Anthony having that moment at the nyc show

EB

I didn't think for a second that Tony was a undercover communist. When Freddie said yes I just thought he was doing his usual 3D chess chanannigins. 😂

Daniel B

I second Noelle's sentiment. Pls Play Detroit Become Human, Matt

Erin Gill

I need to see Matt play Detroit Become Human now lmao

Noelle Bartley

Is everyone talking over each other what it's like working in a writers room?

Virgil McClurken

I love that Anthony throws jabs at Matt's desire to recuperate liberalism and liberal rhetoric lmao

Christopher Lasasso

“DONT LET THE CONSERVATIVES TAKE APPLE PIES MATT!”

Thomas

After the show I still wonder how we got 1 1/2 hours of Beth in a cave , dressed in a bat suit , with no Bartok voice. :(

Arkole Blake

Matt's right! Talk your shit Matt!!

Rebecca Halliburton

Matt is making some really good points about robots

Brexton Creed

Trudy being so expendable like beef himbo is huge

Tsunny Boi

Trudy being a robot is not something to be bummed about, fellow fans!

DMAN

Daryl reacting to Erin O'Neil's empathy for trees all over again.

Eric Willey

“Kitty Korner” 🥰

Alex Annje

nooo my podcast is defending a billionaire!

FusRohNahSon

I love when Matt has a hill to die on 😂

Matthew A Newton

This episode, to me, highlights the difference between Anthony and Will’s GM’ing styles. Anthony ran D&D like a game designer, and Will runs Cthulhu like a screenwriter. I think it’s very interesting to get to see the show from such different perspectives. Edit: I think both of them are fantastic at running both games, and it’s fitting that Anthony and Will’s strengths show through in two TTRPG’s that reflect them. D&D is a lot more “gamey” than Cthulhu, which relies more on improvisation from the players and the Keeper alike.

Coby Fuller

Okay the charged with battery fact is so big brain

becca feia

I did not connect Beth's reveal until right now! Omg

THEpotata

im not saying matt has low empathy but i will say the robot bias explains a lot of choices of his dnd playing

FusRohNahSon

Trudy will be Beth's magnum opus and FUCK anyone who disagrees

FusRohNahSon

Also I FULLY thought Will was going to say “Syringe” not “screwdriver” during that ending and was TERRIFIED. And then I was freaking out for a different reason 😂

ScarletAngelcos

Welcome to the patroeon!

Rackson

Hi!

Rackson

I honestly expected the best character to be like an assassin. Like the mother in spy, X family, where she looks like a typical housewife on the outside on the inside she was charged with attacking a person.

Luna Luna

😍

Alex Annje

im soooo siked to listen to this

smol lapdog

Bro I’m so excited, I’m finally on the Patreon and I can’t wait to hear about Beth’s reveal!!

ScarletAngelcos

I figured Tony was not a communist, just that Penny thought Tony was her replacement, because of how hard the cop came down on him, and how hard he was sure it was him But Tony, paying taxes, and the FBI having no record is really funny. But I’m also confused because wooden therapy paperwork for Tony in the military unless his neighbor was right and implying that he didn’t go into the military, and if he was right then what was Tony beforehand ? Especially since that’s character is a robot, now I’m very confused.

Luna Luna

I really thought trudy got stabbed in the neck at the end of the episode lol

Zac Mueller

TAKE IT AWAY WOOOOOO

Patricia Morales

LETS GOOO

FreckinAddisyn

I’m so excited!!
