00:00Hello, one and all!
00:01Welcome to another episode of Adventuring Party.
00:03I'm your humble dungeon master, Brendon Lee Mulligan.
00:05With me as always are our Righteous Wrestlers.
00:07Say hi, Righteous Wrestlers!
00:09Hi, Righteous Wrestlers!
00:11You guys stomped ass!
00:13That was sick!
00:14Oh my god.
00:14What a feel-good episode, huh?
00:16That felt great.
00:17That was.
00:18That was amazing.
00:19That was awesome.
00:20Well, I think it's really fun,
00:21because the first episode is always like,
00:23ooh, learning how to be in the fantasy,
00:26how to be in the fictional circumstances,
00:28and then episode two, it's like,
00:30no, no, no, I'm gonna drive.
00:32I'm gonna drive, I'm gonna make some calls,
00:34being like, I'm gonna talk to Mr. H,
00:36I'm gonna talk to Uncle Minnie,
00:38I'm gonna, let's do a fuckin' dance battle,
00:40let's go after that door in the underworld,
00:42I wanna see what's up, like think of all the,
00:45that's where it gets intoxicating,
00:46where you're like, ooh, these choices change everything.
00:49If you had not gone to the underworld,
00:51if you had not heard what the gods were planning to do,
00:54think of all of the dominoes and how they start to fall,
00:57it was so fuckin' cool.
00:59For you guys, what was that like?
01:01Like, feeling that, that battle was just so fuckin' sick,
01:05everyone's moves were so, so, so fun and funny.
01:11How did it feel for you guys in terms of like,
01:13well, let's go back to the top,
01:15of like, those first scenes, Hippolytomus, you guys,
01:20or even like, getting called up to the gods,
01:23let's go all the way back to the top.
01:24Oh man. Oh my gosh, seems like so long ago.
01:27Yeah.
01:28It was a millennia.
01:30If I'm being honest, like, all the game stuff,
01:33I'm still not so sure on a lot,
01:35when I attack or what I'm doing, whatever.
01:38The dice roll, I understand, but I don't know what I'm doing,
01:40or what I can do to save myself or save my team.
01:44But when you said, let's go look in that door
01:47that we saw in the first bit,
01:49then I understood different parts of the game,
01:51which made it more fun than having to worry about,
01:55make sure I strike right, you know?
01:57Yeah, totally.
01:58For sure.
01:59That's the thing, is like, the best way to play the game
02:01is for the rules to follow the fun.
02:03Like, you're not going, it's not like,
02:04everything's not about the rules.
02:05It's not all about like, knowing exactly
02:07how your character sheet works.
02:08Yeah, yeah, I learned.
02:09But really focusing on that, like, okay, the story.
02:12Like, what is the stuff that's happening here?
02:14And really treating the world like it's real,
02:16where you're like, no, there's something on the other side
02:18of that fucking door, right?
02:19And then that 31 stealth check to get through that nat 20.
02:23Oh, nat 20, if we wouldn't have got that.
02:25I was so clutch, so clutch.
02:28I just want to play like a real life team right now.
02:31I think we're like strong.
02:32I think we're there.
02:33What level do you think we're at?
02:34Have we surpassed level five or are we still on level five?
02:37Hey.
02:37I know you're not level five.
02:39You know, like, I try to take it easy by not having,
02:44like when we do a shorter season,
02:46I try to leave the characters all at one level.
02:48But you guys have certainly, I don't know,
02:50there's an argument for you guys being level six,
02:52because you guys have really been kicking a bunch of ass.
02:54I was being level seven or eight, but it's fine.
02:55He's kicking a bunch of ass.
02:56Maybe by tomorrow.
02:57Yeah, that's who it is.
02:59Let's find out.
03:00But yeah, it's incredible, because like,
03:01if you think about the flexibility of the story,
03:04like, if you had not gotten that nat 20,
03:06if you had not thought to go back to the door,
03:09then do you go talk to the Minotaur
03:11about how nature's wrath is structured?
03:14Do you find out?
03:15Do you come up with the dance battle idea?
03:17If you don't hear that plan.
03:18Ah, about the flute boy.
03:20The flute boy, right?
03:21The flute boy, right?
03:22Yeah.
03:22In all of that, it's like, because that's the thing is,
03:25you could fail that role, and it wouldn't derail the story.
03:28It would just mean that you went into the battle
03:30not armed with that information.
03:32And maybe you don't get any shine.
03:34Maybe you don't get the audience on your side.
03:35A little less prepared.
03:37Less prepared, yes, absolutely.
03:40But that was so sick.
03:42Zeus, big old asshole.
03:44Yeah.
03:44Yeah, big dick.
03:45Yeah.
03:46Big dick, what's the deal?
03:47Small dick.
03:49Small dick.
03:49I was like, and also an asshole?
03:51Big.
03:54There's gotta be a better way to word that.
03:55We'll come back to that.
03:56Big dick jealousy.
03:57Yes.
03:59BDJ, for sure.
04:01Yeah, for sure.
04:02And we also saw Aphrodite not even deigning
04:05to, like, address you in the room.
04:07That's B.
04:08B behavior.
04:10Yeah, that's what I was gonna come up with, yeah.
04:12There's nothing left up here.
04:13I know, it's been a long day.
04:14We should have saw everything.
04:16We left it all on a Titan takedown.
04:17Done, done.
04:18But no, we saw, and I think there was a cool moment too,
04:21because even Poseidon, who was like a little bit more
04:22kicked back, you know, King C, you were like,
04:25I don't trust this fucking guy either.
04:26They're all in, like, just because one guy's more aggro
04:28does not mean that they're not.
04:29Yeah, they're all in on it.
04:31They're all in on it.
04:31Trying to hurt my parents.
04:32Yeah, exactly, exactly.
04:35Never forget.
04:36We forget, right?
04:38Yeah.
04:38And we got the six, like, the power of the people,
04:41the six squad coming together.
04:43Who knew that Lagnosia was a kingdom of merchandisers?
04:46Right?
04:47Look at all these signs you made.
04:48Fireflies?
04:49Look at our work.
04:50These signs.
04:51We're fast, you know, we're efficient, you know?
04:53Thank you so much.
04:54There's one on your heads aside, too.
04:56Yeah.
04:56What's it say?
04:57The same thing, free drinks that we support.
04:59Party animals, and they did.
05:00Party animals, and they supported.
05:01I can't believe my store came to life in Dungeons & Dragons.
05:06Yeah.
05:06I had this idea since I was 18 working at Anjan Pet Supply
05:10that doesn't, it's not even open anymore.
05:11It closed down.
05:13Whoa.
05:13And now it's here.
05:14A different kind of store, but still provides happiness.
05:17It lives on.
05:18Thanks, Anjan, dude.
05:20It's incredible.
05:21By the way, our team statues by Allison Gondek,
05:23Jesse Heron, and Ryder Dunnigan,
05:25our Pegasus sculpted by Margaret Dost,
05:27and our miniatures by Jesse Heron, Maura Takashita,
05:30and Kai Kagawa.
05:32So good.
05:32I want all of them.
05:33So good.
05:34So, so fun.
05:36Yeah, we got these great signs out here.
05:38Is one of them, is this one the one that says?
05:40Oh, that's party animals.
05:41Dry January.
05:42Yeah.
05:43Really.
05:43The one finger.
05:45The finger.
05:46The finger that says dry January is so,
05:49what a funny thing.
05:50I love a dry January, but just so funny to celebrate
05:53with a foam finger.
05:54Yeah.
05:55It's not dry January.
05:56Also, can we talk about like actual logistics in this?
05:59So like we're, we've been filming,
06:01this is the end of the filming day.
06:02We filmed a whole nother episode.
06:04So like, I assume that you didn't know
06:07that you were gonna make a dry January joke.
06:09I did not.
06:10So someone on the other side of this,
06:11this incredible team on the other side over there,
06:13they heard that joke and then they knew,
06:15oh, we're gonna put merchandise together
06:17because an hour later, we're talking about merchandise,
06:19and they went back deeper.
06:21Oh, there's a dry January joke.
06:23Let's make this.
06:24The crazy bullshit we say on this show,
06:27it goes from the cameras to a monitor
06:29and that monitor is being watched by some of the most
06:31talented artists in the world.
06:33It's amazing.
06:33Who, when they see it, they go,
06:36and it's a whole fucking Rube Goldberg machine.
06:39I just picture like a big,
06:40all these clowns and like,
06:42I don't know.
06:44It's like a Charlie and the Coldplay Factory.
06:48A million percent.
06:50They get right to work.
06:51They get right on it.
06:52But I loved that series of scenes,
06:54both the, there was that moment too,
06:56of post the gods being dicks to all of you,
06:59with Mr. H, Mr. Hippo,
07:02talking about empty victory.
07:04Talking about like, yeah, yeah,
07:05you can win the tournament,
07:06but if you didn't win the,
07:07like a lot of people have won the tournament
07:09and they only had a half victory, right?
07:11And they didn't make the change they wanted to make
07:14when they got the power.
07:15And that, the scenes that followed from that,
07:18of like talking to,
07:19getting Mr. H to talk about like,
07:22the other teams,
07:23what the other teams deal was,
07:25talking to the Lagnosians about making the merch,
07:27going to party animals,
07:28hearing the people,
07:29hearing this woman who was like,
07:31my home was destroyed by Troy,
07:33and you really, thank you for this.
07:35And you just see.
07:35Titty slaps, got her.
07:36Titty slap, pow, pow, pow, pow, pow.
07:39It inspired her.
07:40Really inspired her.
07:41There's an inspirational titty slapping.
07:42Yeah.
07:44It was really, really awesome.
07:45Going back into this next episode,
07:48what do you think the vibe's going to be?
07:49Because now the gods,
07:50the gods,
07:51the gods saw the first thing
07:53and could have written that off as a fluke.
07:54And now the gods are looking at a really creative choice.
07:58I got to say, man,
07:59this dance battle choice was fucking,
08:01what a big swing.
08:03It was,
08:03I had no idea what you guys were going to do,
08:04because I knew that the Nature's Wrath thing was going to be about,
08:07like, if you won a big first victory against real heroes,
08:10they'd want to put you in a situation where you looked to,
08:13where, like,
08:14you're fighting a bunch of sweeties who kind of fight weird.
08:18Yeah.
08:18And it's hard to look badass in that way.
08:20Split the crowd, yeah.
08:21Was that? Yeah.
08:22Split the crowd, yeah.
08:24That's legit, like, just wrestling for us.
08:25Like, we know if we're going out against somebody
08:27who the crowd is going to love
08:29and there's nothing we can do,
08:30then you just kind of jump in.
08:32Yeah.
08:33Swim down the stream instead of trying to fight.
08:35Yeah, right.
08:35You can't fight that.
08:37And so that dance battle was such a great thing of, like,
08:40your energy is intoxicating
08:41and we are going to double up on that energy.
08:44We're going to have that same energy.
08:46It's a dance party.
08:47We're the party animals.
08:48You guys are the sylvans.
08:50We're going to come in.
08:51There's going to be free wine.
08:52It was so fucking slick.
08:54And to take all the attacks as dance moves,
08:57fucking work, the bouncing work,
08:59and all this spinning pirouetting.
09:01It was so, so sick.
09:02And that tag team move from you guys at the end,
09:04both grabbing the centaur's pants.
09:06Just spin them off.
09:07Art imitating life or life imitating art.
09:09Yeah, yeah, yeah.
09:10Art imitating art.
09:11There we go.
09:12Art imitating art, exactly.
09:15But what do you guys, like, coming back tomorrow
09:17when we're going to go into episode three,
09:19what are you guys worried about now?
09:21Because the gods, like, you saw their reaction
09:23to that first victory.
09:24What do you think their reaction to this next one's going to be?
09:26Yeah, I think they're not fucking around now.
09:28Okay, who are, it could be against the curse,
09:32the Amazonians, the Amazon people,
09:34and who else?
09:35One other.
09:36The cursed team.
09:38Yeah, cursed and the Amazons are the others, right?
09:41So one of those.
09:42One of those, right?
09:43Oh, yeah.
09:43Are the other ones there.
09:45But things, and then that's the third of four,
09:47and then fourth is supposed to be you guys all competing
09:49against each other.
09:50Oh.
09:51But Medusa came out with wine,
09:55so, like, she's cool.
09:58We don't have to maybe figure something out.
10:00That's been a great, I didn't know,
10:01because we never played before,
10:03so I had no idea who was going to play.
10:04You guys have entered this tournament
10:06and made way more friends than enemies, right?
10:08Yeah.
10:08Like, you were very kind of like...
10:09The underdogs.
10:10The underdogs, right?
10:11Everyone loves an underdog story.
10:12It's true, you guys slide the Pegasus out,
10:15you bring the Satan back into the ring,
10:17you charm the Dryad, who's now head over heels.
10:20Also, I don't know if you know how that works,
10:22but that's like, that's not going to necessarily stop
10:24when the match is over.
10:26You know, you might just have...
10:27Oh, she might...
10:28Ring time.
10:28She might have caught real feelings,
10:30yeah, for sure.
10:31Oh, shit.
10:31Boy.
10:32You might still be climbing a tree.
10:35You said you sent my train on my phone.
10:38Yep.
10:38You might be on the hook.
10:39Give him my branch, like you said.
10:41All the other ring.
10:42Okay, that's good to know.
10:44But yeah, it looks like Medusa and Arachne
10:46and those other, King Midas,
10:47these other cursed, the cursed team,
10:48are like fans of your guys.
10:50So there's some, it's like, a lot of camaraderie.
10:53It's like, that's one of those things,
10:54when there are big assholes in charge,
10:57the one thing you can count on
10:58is probably not that they've made
11:00a small amount of enemies, right?
11:02There's a lot of people out here
11:03who are catching the same curses
11:05and the same shit that you guys caught,
11:07and it looks like there's a lot of people
11:08who are very excited to be in the corner
11:11of the party animals.
11:12Yes.
11:13We'll have to see how the story continues next week
11:15on another episode of Dimension 20,
11:17Titan Takedown.
11:20I'm fucking golden.
11:21I can't.
11:22What?
