[Talking Dad] Ep. 66 - Fender Glennder
Added 2021-09-15 00:00:02 +0000 UTCWe discuss our feelings about that bombshell episode, as characters and as players, and also some of our favorite fictional character deaths!
Comments
The death in Downton Abbey, season 3, episode 5 absolutely wrecked me. I have watched it multiple times and it never gets easier. Often, on-screen character deaths are intimate, but this one had so many people in the room all reacting to this horrible and unexpected moment that seemed to stretch on forever and the performances were so incredibly raw by everyone involved, it still to this day does not feel like acting, but watching something real happen.

2025-09-01 05:30:48 +0000 UTCOne of the biggest "hits" I had for a character death was for the movie My Girl. I was probably 15 when watching it with my parents, completely emotionally distant, never-cry, middle child girl at the time, and that movie had me clutching my stomach and sobbing in the kitchen while watching it. It is a FANTASTIC movie. It just depicts loss and grief in so many different ways and so many different scenarios

2025-05-10 22:58:18 +0000 UTCi can't believe they talk about wrath of khan as the worst death and then don't even bring up spirk during the ship discussion. insane

2025-04-22 03:13:53 +0000 UTCSo evangelion. There are movies after the series?

Michael Sheehan
2024-11-21 03:28:43 +0000 UTCdoes anyone know which game of thrones death they’re talking about?
Eb Green
2024-11-05 05:38:33 +0000 UTCCharacter A and Character B bleep was so funny Freddie thank you
Miki

2024-08-10 21:36:03 +0000 UTCListening to this, I was praying that they were gonna roll for investigation because it made no sense to me how she cut herself.

2024-03-02 01:08:41 +0000 UTCOmg. I loved the Baroque Cycle! I love Neal Stephenson!
Jonathan Dasani
2024-01-19 03:59:03 +0000 UTCI knew who they were talking about but still got disoriented and caught myself laughing through it.
Phil H
2023-11-01 21:33:37 +0000 UTCThe character death at the end of the Witcher series books. Or should I say deaths, those broke me to my core. Also, basic boy, but Arthur Morgan in Red Dead 2, I got a good honor ending, and he did not deserve to go out that way. It was so heartbreaking. He just comforted his horse and I wasn't in a good state for that
Sam M
2023-07-28 12:49:14 +0000 UTCI AM DYING OVER THE CHARACTER A AND B CONVERSATION LOLOL

Daniel Zelaya
2022-08-12 18:19:53 +0000 UTCI would pay good money to see the tower of terry bar fight against vampire girl with glenn performing a one man cover of Ballroom Blitz in the background. 😂
Panda_Dork
2022-07-05 04:38:02 +0000 UTCI was dying during the whole "character A character B" bit 🤣
Reem A
2022-06-19 01:55:54 +0000 UTCOmg I never noticed that the knife was submitted by “Will S” I was just like “oh like Will Will? Wait no his last name is a C duh”
Connor Millar
2022-06-07 18:36:44 +0000 UTCThinking about the doctor in House that passed and when it aired on TV they had a number for the suicide hotline. He tried reaching out to the doctor team and everyone was too busy 😭
Angela Shrader
2022-04-04 11:52:56 +0000 UTCSure, that happened.
Ashley Laduranteay
2021-12-22 06:23:07 +0000 UTCI put an entire movie theater into a state of uproarious laughter when I saw Rise of Skywalker by singing the ending credits theme when they crashed into the quicksand. Maybe top 5 best moments of my life 😂
Mike Deme
2021-10-11 21:20:21 +0000 UTCThe ending of Repo, where Anthony Stewart head dies is the hardest death for me. I'm always a wreck after and It always feels like my dad just died
Bekah
2021-10-08 20:19:03 +0000 UTCThis did not age well.
Joseph Zarate
2021-10-01 22:40:20 +0000 UTCWell atleast we still have our boy Paeden right?
Jordan Scolyer
2021-09-28 06:34:07 +0000 UTCJesus this episode left me shocked!!
Ralph Bravo
2021-09-21 21:05:47 +0000 UTCI accidentally listened to the first minute of this before listening to the episode 🤦♂️
Brandon Quinn
2021-09-21 16:25:39 +0000 UTCAfter listening back to the first episode with my wife, I wonder if an ambulance and an AAA van made it there. They would be good help in the final fight :)
Thomas Lim
2021-09-20 08:37:14 +0000 UTCi wasnt sure if the daddies were going to get the roc back to fight the dragon and so the dragon resist knife got me so excited. even the talking dads episode about it feels like an emotional rollercoaster
Brian Dickie
2021-09-18 04:56:22 +0000 UTCI think you're right (but Nick Jr is the rat named after Nick the kid)
Jenica
2021-09-18 02:29:37 +0000 UTCI think Glenn is gonna come back with Jodi and Nick
Flyingtortuga
2021-09-17 23:01:31 +0000 UTCQuestion: I apologize if this has been asked already (I'm not caught up on Talking Dads yet). When the dads entered the forgotten realms, they entered into classes, like Ron is a rogue, Darryl is a barbarian, etc. Do the sons have classes? Do they have "powers?" We know Terry Jr. can do magic, because he almost opened a portal to another dimension. Can any of the other sons cast spells?
Ellie Rohrback
2021-09-17 20:56:22 +0000 UTCWill’s George Bush folding chair comment healed me from the last episode.
cronchroach
2021-09-17 03:05:47 +0000 UTCI feel like Anthony might be referring to the character that gets watermelon squished, if you know what I mean. Season 4.
cronchroach
2021-09-17 02:57:41 +0000 UTCI never watched game of thrones because I had a hunch like matt said they were just going to kill characters to be edgy and "realistic" when it's just childish and repulsive and not what stories are about.
Austin Baker
2021-09-17 02:04:19 +0000 UTCThe angel banter made me happier than anyone could imagine. The fact my favorite creators also connect with angel and buffy the same way I do but my generation knows nothing of it :/ so I literally have like 1 person to talk to about other than my parents
Alex Wade
2021-09-16 22:45:17 +0000 UTCGlenn dying is going to make things incredibly interesting...
Krigaren
2021-09-16 20:37:58 +0000 UTCI was waiting for the episode to end on a zinger from one of the dads in their 15 seconds to react saying "Go to hell Glen"
Kevin Rasmussen
2021-09-16 20:05:24 +0000 UTCGlenn dying was the saddest part of the podcast since Ron lost his ability to wear pants 👖
Nick Ellis
2021-09-16 19:27:33 +0000 UTCI just rewatch Torchwood Children of Earth and honestly the last 2 episodes of that miniseries is like a full on crying marathon, I love it so much. The death at the end of episode 4 gets me everytime.
Andrew Duck
2021-09-16 13:46:59 +0000 UTCThe repetition of “character a, character b” nonsense ugh I’m tired and it made my head explode, I have no idea what’s happening

2021-09-16 13:10:16 +0000 UTCFuckin love Ida Maria!!!
acaciaskye
2021-09-16 11:21:40 +0000 UTCOk no hate but the Doomsday episode (season 2 I think?? ) of Doctor Who will forever ruin me. I think it's still overall kind of a cheap way to play a (sort of) death but the fact that they led up with it being a possibility beforehand and then actually committed to the ramifications is so devastating. I still can't watch it without sobbing and it's been over ten years. Honourable mention to Moulin Rouge, specifically with Chocolat's performance and (character's) scream of despair.

2021-09-16 07:20:31 +0000 UTCI listened to this episode once and was shocked. Then I listened again and it was FULL of foreshadowing. Anthony dropped hints everywhere. Henry specifically told Glenn to go to hell to get his kid back. By the end of the second listen, I was convinced that Glenn's death was a team effort from a room full of storytellers who needed a very specific ending for a satisfying character arc, and then I was surprised at the very real panic when nobody could stop the death. Strong foreshadowing in improv is incredible. I'm very impressed.
Jenica
2021-09-16 05:00:37 +0000 UTCAm I crazy or did the Ron therapy scene happen in the previous episode also?? I distinctly remember hearing Anthony's awesome line about having so much love before I heard it in this ep.
Sander Goldman
2021-09-15 20:35:35 +0000 UTCI'd think Kill the DJ by Green Day would be Glenn's song
Finnian Day
2021-09-15 20:34:30 +0000 UTCFreddie says Glenn was at 113 hit points, but took 13 damage therefore not being under 100. So kill word wouldn’t have worked right? Or did I miss something there. Either way, very good plot development
Erick Espinosa
2021-09-15 19:06:39 +0000 UTCSame!

Eli Broide
2021-09-15 18:11:49 +0000 UTCFreddie, the “Character A” “Character B” thing is the funniest thing I’ve heard all day! I don’t know how you manage to find the perfect mundanity to twist into humor so often but that got me.
Martin Adams
2021-09-15 17:41:08 +0000 UTCOne character death got to me was for sure the fucking avengers endgame one bc I really thought it was gonna be someone else
Dominoes
2021-09-15 16:47:09 +0000 UTCDoes anyone know the GOT character they are talking about? I am on season 5 and trying to recall who it could be?
Reverend_Krenke
2021-09-15 15:59:23 +0000 UTCWait. Y'all won't say the names of people who died in a tv series SIXTEEN YEARS AGO. But a movie that was released 2 years ago is fair game? 🤣
Charleen Lamphere
2021-09-15 15:55:33 +0000 UTCSomeone from the cast tweeted “Anthony fucked us!” a while ago, so I was on the lookout. When Anthony said that they had maxed out the Omega Dads’ preparation track and that he’d have to come up with new things for them, I wondered if that was the fuckening. That would definitely make you wince, but probably not provoke a tweet like that. I was wondering if the hammer would fall the next episode before it actually happened and hoo boy!

2021-09-15 15:18:26 +0000 UTCAre Matt and Freddy still going to be in season 2? Did they sunset storybreak to leave room for daddies?
Gregg Simms
2021-09-15 15:16:41 +0000 UTCI’m just excited to see what they do for this final arc of this season! The twist with Willy was such an ego kick for all of them.
Erin R
2021-09-15 14:58:15 +0000 UTCI have to say, the Willy Twist in this episode literally hit me like a freight train. I honestly had such a visceral reaction to it like the shock and horror I felt was so extreme! Testament to all of y’all for that but definitely Anthony and Freddy really were kinda mvp this episode 😅
Jasmine Phillips
2021-09-15 13:58:42 +0000 UTCSomeone else loves The Baroque Cycle!
Tonje Beate Halvorsen
2021-09-15 13:10:36 +0000 UTCThe viper fight is when I stopped watching game of thrones as well. One of the most impactful character deaths for me was Felicia Day in Dr horrible
Chris Bean
2021-09-15 12:03:55 +0000 UTCLoved the discussion of character deaths in shows, first thing I thought of is that there's a lot of character deaths in Humans that hit hard. Two in particular which I'm not going to spoil, just in case anyone winds up actually watching it. One in S2 and one in S3 and they're both played brilliantly. The show does such a good job of making you care about every character that whenever it rips that away, it's just extra gutting. DnD is actually one of the only other media that I feel nails them quite that well.
Antony Lusmore
2021-09-15 11:05:35 +0000 UTCI've not seen the show but from his description I would *guess* the dude who gets his head poppped by the mountain? Oberyn Martell?
Chell-glados@hotmail.com

Kate Kimmis
2021-09-15 07:37:01 +0000 UTCI loved Freddie's automotive attention to detail, I mostly listen while at work working on classic cars, or at home working on my own '73 Super Beetle that I autocross. I'm always game for car talk (with or without gartok). HMU if you ever need like way too much detail into any car related shit lol

Brianna M
2021-09-15 02:51:17 +0000 UTCCurious as to what wrestling show?
What do we want, time travel. When do we want it. That's Irrelevant!
2021-09-15 02:27:33 +0000 UTCAnthony definitely did the right thing with regard to kids on the slope, by midway through the show the heterosexual nonsense piles up such that there's a chain of five or six characters crushing on the next character in the chain that it becomes absolutely insufferable. The jazz slaps but it's not worth it
Kimberly Tevis
2021-09-15 02:21:18 +0000 UTCAnthony is brilliant in the same way that Michael is in The Good Place, and I mean that with the highest regard.
Tabitha McDonald
2021-09-15 01:10:46 +0000 UTCThey have Jimmy on speed dial, right? Ron shouts out his name, Glenn takes the express route to kick his dad's ass while Jodie and Lil Nicky get Willie down to death save territory and Ron can slap the bracelets on.
Tabitha McDonald
2021-09-15 01:00:58 +0000 UTCI know who Character A is, but I'm a little less certain about Character B
Shibibibibibibibibibibiba
2021-09-15 00:52:58 +0000 UTCI wish Anthony killed glen at the cabin instead of what happened.

King Gingie
2021-09-15 00:38:23 +0000 UTCIs this leading into the entourage arc? Surprise entourage arc???
JOSHUA SCOFIELD
2021-09-15 00:18:30 +0000 UTCWhat did everyone do when Anthony just walked out for a wrestling match? That would have been an amazing live show! Freddy did a great job with the sound effects in this one btw
