Fireside Chat for WWW ep17 "Say My Name"
Added 2023-11-28 12:06:43 +0000 UTCThe PC's come together from the Holiday Road (and a wild variety of sound environments) to talk about Name Days and bathroom bangin. Meanwhile our guest stars begin to form some sort of...initiative...a team if you will, of...remarkable individuals.

“Aabria Iyengar: I'm sure everything with Silver will go fine, the episode ended well.” OOOOOOOOOOOoooOoOooOkay

2025-08-08 05:02:59 +0000 UTCLou's reaction to Steel's offer really rung true for me. I was heavily disfigured a decade ago, and my experience in the American healthcare system trying to put myself back together was frustrating and less than useless. After a decade of adjusting and living with my new normal, a retired surgeon approaches me, informs me of the reconstruction possibilities, and offers me a contact. It's a painful struggle, especially in the moment, to reopen that door to hope.

2024-02-15 17:38:09 +0000 UTCI understand there may be times when you can't be in a good studio/recording space. But this sounds like headphone mics? This is a high profile podcast, which has a high number of backers, even if you're recording at home, do I have to listen to a Zoom call?

2024-01-29 00:05:29 +0000 UTCQuestion: real talk outside of the bit, is Brennan okay? I saw someone say that he wouldn't be present for any of the talk backs in era 2 but had no source on it and I only saw it that one time. Is he coming back?
Jasmine
2024-01-15 10:27:41 +0000 UTCLikewise, fellow Sky! I still geek everytime it's said. My brain's like "oops did someone say my name? Sorry I was listening to a podcast" haha

2023-12-18 16:27:26 +0000 UTCAabria, I need you to know, as a person with the name Sky in real life, you choosing it as Suvi’s wizard name makes up for the decades of never seeing my name on any little novelty keychain or notebook or sticker. I love this so much. It’s the little things for me

Mushroom Morgan
2023-12-04 19:16:35 +0000 UTCJust have Saige stop by for a guest character appearance. Aabria & her natural energy will shift everyone off of any other sapphic ship. Then she leaves and Suvi can pine.

2023-12-04 01:55:41 +0000 UTCThere was a "room where it happens" missed moment when talking about the archmages meeting room

2023-12-01 06:51:08 +0000 UTCI watched Transcendence along time ago, I also liked it 😂
Shades Run
2023-12-01 03:30:31 +0000 UTCBold of you all to assume that we *just* set that ship sailing. Suvi constantly showing off to Ame is 100% a trope
Christen Bushie
2023-11-30 23:34:21 +0000 UTCYeah I hope he comes back soon, I really like the DM insight in aftershows
Xathonn X
2023-11-30 23:01:47 +0000 UTCWell, during the children's campaign, when Eursulon first tried to go home, Brennan asked if he was carrying the Pauldron.

2023-11-30 19:11:48 +0000 UTChonestly don't know where the idea that everyone hates silver came from!! feeling indifferent is not hate 💖
geansai
2023-11-30 08:39:53 +0000 UTCI love the reference to Brennan’s “Dom DM” moment
Katlynn
2023-11-29 21:41:19 +0000 UTCmy deeply unproven theory is that Aabria was more than happy to leave little crumbs of ship bait here and there in a slow burn / angst / plausible deniability that fuels fan fic way, and Lou or someone else was like "legit please no, that would be The Worst as a playing experience" and everybody was like "yeah cool we all want to have fun and a good time" and this was kind of a course correct to let the fans know not to expect it to happen on the podcast. Or Aabria legit played things way more sapphic than even she realized and was surprised by the... enthusiasm of the response no matter the how and why tho, mad respect for setting clear expectations and respecting the comfort/bounds of everyone at the table
Winifred Yost
2023-11-29 19:00:24 +0000 UTCSilver is, like, two or three years older than Suvi. There's absolutely no way he was involved with the League of Whispers.
Jonah Loeb
2023-11-29 14:13:31 +0000 UTCBrennan's turn on Candela wrapped up earlier in the month, and from some of the things they have said it sounds like the firesides are usually recorded in the week before they air. My guess is that Brennan had been in production on a D20 sidequest this past month, or possibly working on his new improv show with Izzy.
Lilith Evenstar
2023-11-29 13:47:31 +0000 UTCIf I had to guess; his playing Candela on Critical Role conflicted with recording these, which would mean Aabria will miss some soon
Peter Crowell
2023-11-29 13:34:00 +0000 UTCWas literally coming on here to post the same idea. Have the guests, Lou and Brennan play themselves. Erika or Aabria play as beard guy and the other GM
Peter Crowell
2023-11-29 13:32:01 +0000 UTCI agree, and I seriously doubt they would be pressured into anything. It's just funny that Aabria hadn't realized the ship had sailed, since she is in the comments on Discord--or was for a while.
Carrie Mook Bridgman
2023-11-29 12:52:52 +0000 UTCAlso the point at which 'Ame thanks Eursalon for visiting her in the infirmary and says she knew Suvi was there, too, because "there was one place on the bed that had her scent."' is in ep 16 at around the 1.20.00 mark
Evilest Teapot
2023-11-29 11:26:31 +0000 UTC*spoiler ? Theory ?* . . What if Eursulon’s “amulet, talisman, anchor” is the golden armor? Curran's Pauldron?
Brian Smith
2023-11-29 04:46:33 +0000 UTCIt’s around the marks 1:18:15 and 1:33:18 in the pod btw
David Caponi
2023-11-29 02:32:35 +0000 UTCI’ve been doing a listen through and lo and behold! Episode #6: Fresh Fish, 6 months ago, there are not one but TWO times that Suvi calls herself Sky. Picture perfect foreshadowing, people!
David Caponi
2023-11-29 02:26:46 +0000 UTCIs this a "we know brennan isn't available for a while" or a "brennan's schedule unfortunately just hasn't lined up" situation? I love the firesides but it does feel like something is missing without the GM perspective there
Justin Melillo
2023-11-29 01:59:47 +0000 UTCWow, that is amazing
Harold Dupree
2023-11-29 00:46:19 +0000 UTCI believe it’s been established that the guests also play as Eurselon each episode, which makes the consistency of his character episode to episode all the more amazing
Kristin Higginbotham
2023-11-29 00:40:50 +0000 UTCI don’t think that’s true at all about female characters, but I also don’t think the online ship is going to affect how Aabria or Erika play it
Ley
2023-11-28 23:38:33 +0000 UTCThe surprise makes me think that they genuinely hadn’t thought of it and therefore that the story will not go that way. Although I do love the ship and will sail along with the rest of you I just hope that the Wbn crew don’t feel pressured into anything
Evilest Teapot
2023-11-28 22:36:23 +0000 UTCI kinda get disheartened by ships like this. It's so surprisingly rare to see real friendships in media without them being turned into romances

The Overthinker
2023-11-28 20:44:39 +0000 UTCBut Silver is Suvi's age, so if he's part of it, he is next-generation, like her.

2023-11-28 18:18:38 +0000 UTCCan the next campaign be a series of Lou's guests DMing the Panama Rescue Story with Aabria as Brennan, Erika as Lou, and Brennan as Mr. Beardguy?

2023-11-28 17:18:37 +0000 UTCWizard Sorry is the Citadel's chief ambassador. They are incredibly smooth but no one really believes what they say. Wizard Sincere, on the other hand, is beloved by all, but they don't let them talk to outsiders. We don't talk about the wizard Silly.
Matthew B
2023-11-28 17:01:33 +0000 UTCThe wizard Ship hates Silver but no one really knows why.
Matthew B
2023-11-28 16:57:20 +0000 UTCThe wizard Slim was named Jim. The wizard Savage was named Randy. They are life partners and are the only ones in the whole world who keep each others' birth names.

PhillyMoe
2023-11-28 16:24:24 +0000 UTCAs a fellow tumblrer, if I was to have reservations about Silver, it would be from the idea that the group has yet to identify the people Soft and Stone were battling against. If S names indicate power, Silver, who was already named well before Suvi, could have been part of it.
PhillyMoe
2023-11-28 16:22:33 +0000 UTCSomeone could turn Tumbler around on Silver with some sexy fan art of him looking at the camera and saying "What's up? Drama!"

Matthew B
2023-11-28 15:45:24 +0000 UTCSo at this point, are we getting a either a one shot recreation of Brennan and Lou’s adventures in Panama, or, and this is my preference, a full on scripted audio recreation of said events with Brennan, Lou, and Aabria/erica playing the captives against whoever isn’t a captive playing the captee?
Roy Ernster
2023-11-28 15:38:23 +0000 UTCI was one of those tens of people to watch Transcendence, I believe in you Aabria!
bitterbaldguy
2023-11-28 15:19:21 +0000 UTCAabria- as the youngest of 3, you got sibling dynamics down pretty damn well
Tommy Deibel
2023-11-28 14:39:12 +0000 UTC"Who is this boy standing in the way of a ship that we just set sail"?!? Oh, Aabria, honey, that ship sailed the first day of the main campaign. You were there. You saw the comments, at least here. I have been resisting that idea, myself. I like the sibling dynamic, and I worry about Eursalon being the odd one out. But after that episode? Don't pretend you and Erika are surprised. It's not just the writing-on-the-hand scene, either. I can't find it right now, but I think it was in this episode where Ame thanks Eursalon for visiting her in the infirmary and says she knew Suvi was there, too, because "there was one place on the bed that had her scent." Lou: "It would be awesomeif that ship could sink." Thank you! If any three (!!!) players could pull that off, it would be these three, but I really hope they don't condemn Lou to a "cursed experience." It's a long campaign. Maybe later they could bring in a couple more regular players to ease the dynamics, and something could happen there. I just think it's hilarious that Aabria sounds surprised.
Carrie Mook Bridgman
2023-11-28 14:29:57 +0000 UTC100% agree with Lou, sink that damn ship before it leaves the harbor

2023-11-28 13:05:27 +0000 UTCNow I won’t assume anything about the patrons of WBN, but all of Lou’s guests have a very robust knowledge of the episodes and the firesides. Is Lou giving out content for free to all these folks? It’s his right to do so, but surely he wouldn’t give out now over a dozen free passes
