The Dad Crew sits down to talk about episode 26 of season two, but first Freddie makes everyone draw the geography of DADDIES HQ from this episode. Then they get into the actual episode including such topics as Matt's long term plan for Link's voice change, the alt intro pitch of Tony and Taylor's anime podcast, and some details around the secret items Willie and Scary took. 

Plus, they talk about the secret sauce of creating compelling contrasting characters, expiration dates on food and sauces, and interesting ways to run a campaign with a bigger group that can be light on combat.

Check out everyone's drawings in the pdf attached to this post!

“Damn”

Logan Eliot

As a DM myself, I stand with Anthony that describing 3d space is really tough. My PCs will constantly poke holes in the environment and it is real annoying. I can’t even blame them I contradict myself so much.

Sophie nah

I really love all the little conversations between the teens and their dads. Like the bit of Link re-traumatising Grant and all of Normal and Sparrows interactions

Hardest Ive laughed at a talking dad in a while, about hit my head on my desk

The taskmaster pull made me so happy, I love that show.

Is there a reason the past few episodes haven't been available for mp3 download? I listen to these at work and I don't get a good signal for patreon

Matt is fucking insane. Hands down my favorite. I could listen to you just say shit all day. That breast milk joke had me howling. At work!

Yo! Real talk, Taskmaster rules!

Do we get to get the drawings?

Anthony, your description method is the honest reason that I can enjoy the show in the audio form. Compared to trying to listen to critical role combats in podcast form. Your descriptions allow for the mental image to develop and grow as it will, and doesn’t retcon that naturally grown image. Which means that image is ingrained and set. Making the show even more memorable.

Not sure if it was just a joke that went over my head, but is Taylor the least popular amongst listeners? He's my favourite!

Well dang. Anthony mentioned the "This is my crib" bit from Sons and Sonsibilities so now I have to listen to it for the 5th time 😂

For anyone looking for the drawings they are attached the post as a pdf!

On expiration dates: for things that seem like they should never go bad, the expiration dates refer to the packaging. (Ex. Honey is not necessarily going to go bad, but if it is in plastic, there can be an expiry date based on when the packaging can affect the contents)

There's real new dad vs toddler dad energy in this one.

The segue from breast milk 😂

Sorry, HOT TAKE ALERT: but you guys are wrong about revivify, you’re just not playing the game in a way where revivify would be narratively interesting. If Anthony was the type of DM that counted spell slots and you guys where actually using your characters abilities in combat and stuff like a real DnD game it would be really narratively interesting if you used your resources. It’s when you have to make choices like using your last spell slot for a death blow to the villain trying to escape or revivify your downed teammate who just died trying to kill them. You guys just aren’t ever drained of your resources because it’s a narratively driven game where you guys are kinda the superheroes. It’s more reminiscent of blades in the dark honestly especially if you’re integrating this past life making decisions that help you kinda thing. It’s just not a TTRPG driven narrative and I think that’s fine, it’s just gonna mess up the power scaling of the universe sometimes. Still love the pod and the way y’all do it tho! It’s just that this is where the criticism that “y’all don’t really play DnD” rings true. Don’t hate the game, hate the player

"Scary is irredeemable" God forbid women do anything

James Moretti

Anyone else predict Matt was gonna go the puperty route? Lovely little twist and if you listen back, you can see he is laying foundation for it. E.g. In the Link's eleven intro "oh, someday" 🤣 keep up the great work, everyone!

Okay but I don’t put any of my sauces or condiments in the fridge. Haven’t died yet.

Conflict between characters is the most interesting kind! Take the wheel Beth May 👐

I feel like you are really undervaluing them. They do count spell slots, they use abilities in combat. But this case wasn’t even combat, They would have full spell slots at the time of Tony’s death, and they could easily revive him and it would have been lame and sucked. Revivify in like almost all cases is a lame spell. The example you are able to give where it is cool is so specific. If only one party member has it, and they have used all but one of the spell slots they can use to cast revivify, and someone just died since their last turn cause they could have revived them if it wasn’t, and the villain is running away, and no one else has time to attack, and the healer doesn’t have any other attacks or spells that can take out the villain, and the villain is using a method of escape that’s slow enough where they have time to attack, but fast enough where they can’t chase after them or shoot them after the healers turn, and also, the healer is about to die, not to mention the fact that this choice is only gonna be tough for a very small amount of characters, and most will just insta revive Revivify is a lame spell

Gillable

She… she like betrayed everyone and helped the guy who wants to ruin the world kill an innocent guy…

Littledising

No but fr is it recycling breastmilk or reusing breastmilk?

Corbin Young

Matt Arnold… “Daddy gets a taste” 😂😂😂

I feel like people claiming Scary is irredeemable are dismissing too quickly the fact that Willy is a full-grown man with his own agency. Scary wasn’t holding a gun to his head, forcing him to kill Tony. I do think she’ll have to reflect and carry the burden of her actions. She did betray the party. Ultimately though, Willy killed Tony. Willy was under absolutely no obligation to obey Scary and did it anyway. He saw an angsty teen, in a vulnerable place, and gave her 2 things: 1) validation for her attitude and 2) literal magical power over her environment. Is he doing it in a exploitative way and for his own nefarious purposes? Almost definitely. But people have very quickly downplayed the significance of his obvious manipulation of this teenage girl and placed almost all the blame on Scary.

I can't comprehend these drawings.
