What's up heroes? It's Dylan, your host and
0:43
Game Master, back with the finale of Epic
0:45
Mundane. And I have since played
0:47
this game again with other friends offline, and
0:49
it's truly living up to being a new
0:52
staple of a pick and play, pick up
0:54
and play game in my life. It
0:57
has been added to the coffee table
0:59
collection, so to speak. So thank you,
1:01
Ryan, for making such a fun little
1:03
romp of a game. And truly with
1:05
that, let's see how this finale shakes
1:07
out. It's
1:10
a romp. The
1:13
cyclone starts choking, and you're
1:15
doing this to try and
1:17
get the pigeons out, right?
1:27
That's the goal. Yeah, ultimately. If
1:29
you succeed at that, I think that
1:31
like, as this creature is
1:33
choking, it kind
1:35
of like, becomes, dissolves a little
1:38
bit around the edges. And like,
1:40
I think that Leonard and Skinner are both
1:42
able to make a break for it as
1:44
they flee from the body of the cyclone.
1:47
But then it like, it like,
1:49
and the can just
1:52
comes like, whipping
1:54
back out, and
1:57
is going to, I don't know how to
1:59
determine if it hits somebody. or something. I
2:01
think we need to make eagle roll.
2:04
Stop it from hitting. Yeah, that's the
2:07
one. There's one of your birds shoots
2:09
out of that typhoon and a can
2:12
whippled out like after it. There's
2:15
no one fast enough. Excited
2:17
to hear you. Yeah, no. I
2:20
at first it's like I'm
2:22
applauding USB like wow. And
2:25
then I see the bird go
2:27
and then the can go and
2:30
I have to I got to intercept and so
2:32
I'm running. I'm
2:35
running but I run in a way that I also flap
2:38
my arms. Yeah, just of course. It's like the Naruto Ravi.
2:40
Yeah, you're going to wake them slightly. Yeah, a six, a
2:42
five and one. And then you're like ahh. Stop. You
2:45
want to describe what happens please. This
2:54
is a pretty good success. Yeah,
2:57
I think it's
3:00
a full tilt sprint and
3:02
I run and the
3:05
arms flapping and I get up a small
3:08
flight of stairs. I jump onto the
3:11
pole and jump and kick off of
3:14
this handrail that people usually use for skating
3:16
on. Oh, yeah. For
3:20
a second it's almost as
3:22
if I'm flying and
3:24
get past like
3:26
skinnered right in
3:28
front of me and then I. I have to leave.
3:30
Exactly. It's exactly like that.
3:32
That's playing in my head and
3:35
catch the can. Take the can to the chest. You
3:39
take the can to the chest? Yeah,
3:41
all for my skinnered. All for my
3:43
big boy. This
3:51
can was moving at speed so I
3:53
think that it's probably going to do some
3:55
damage to you. At
3:57
the very least. Breath taken away.
4:00
Maybe that's what the one is for. At
4:02
the least, at the very least. You're
4:04
actually like full anime style. The can,
4:06
you like, it's slow motion. You jump
4:09
in front of, was it Skynyrd or
4:11
Leonard? It's Skynyrd. Skynyrd, you
4:13
jump in front of Skynyrd and you catch
4:15
the can to the chest and there's
4:17
just like this explosion and then an
4:19
explosion of smoke against like one
4:21
of the, one
4:24
of the like towers. There's like a clock
4:26
tower or some shit in the park and
4:28
there's just like a, as you go straight into it
4:31
and then fall down to the ground and
4:35
like, like
4:38
the can goes skittering, still somehow
4:40
in one piece, goes skittering in
4:42
one direction and you
4:44
like roll to the side and your like breath
4:46
knocked out of you, probably gonna
4:48
get at least a bruise, full
4:51
anime moment. As
4:54
you save your bird, Leonard and
4:56
Skynyrd are free, but Mariah's still
4:58
stuck inside. A
5:02
swirling, Matt's
5:04
already got a hand raised. No, no, no,
5:06
this is my natural. What the fuck
5:09
is this? This is your natural hand
5:11
position? I would see, I see, it's
5:13
like this, it's like this. It
5:15
was like that, yeah. I was just holding the pencil
5:17
between my hands. See, you were giving professor Xavier is
5:19
what you're saying. A hotter,
5:22
like Christian Slater phase as you
5:24
did that. I'm
5:27
just imitating the very sexy Robin,
5:29
okay? That's the fucking,
5:31
the fuck, the thesis, the
5:33
equilibrium that Robin exists in is
5:35
Christian Slater. Is
5:39
Christian Slater the guy that we were talking
5:41
about last time? We were talking
5:44
about Christian Slater last time? No, I don't
5:46
think, no. Crispin Glovin. Oh, there we
5:48
go. Crispin Glovin. Crispin
5:52
Glovin, the guy that's my character,
5:54
too, is based on. It's based
5:57
on. Crispin Glovin. That's
5:59
a different. He looks what like in
6:01
that movie it looks like what I imagine
6:04
Eagle to look like it's just Christian
6:06
Slater all of our characters look like
6:09
Crispin Glover Illegal
6:15
Avengers team name will be the Christians One
6:19
person on the planet that looks like Crispin
6:21
Glover is already more than enough It's like the
6:26
Cuz you look so much like Crisp
6:28
Crispin Glover Yeah
6:31
Crispin Glover does Too
6:40
many It's a lot of Too many One
6:43
Crispin Glover is too crispy. I'm so
6:45
sorry to Crispin Glover who is
6:48
listening right now. I I'm not. I appreciate you.
6:50
Come on the show. We'll we'll settle it
6:52
here. We'll settle it on the mic Do
6:56
should we recap what we did last time? We
6:59
have our characters So
7:01
we have I think that's
7:04
a good idea. I think that's a fair idea Heroes
7:06
we had some we had some Audio-technical
7:09
difficulties last time so we're gonna be picking up Sort
7:12
of where we left off Unless
7:14
we forget where that was so I
7:21
Am playing toot Whose
7:23
special power is beans and wants to
7:25
make the best bean salad ever Toot
7:28
right now is a third
7:30
class hero But I'm
7:33
only one die away from being
7:36
able to level up to level two Who
7:40
else we got? I'm playing
7:42
una ravel and my Superpower
7:45
is that I can untie things
7:47
or unravel like angle wires and
7:50
stuff I'm
7:52
still a fourth class hero. I'm right there at the
7:54
beginning, but I'm making my way. I Die
7:57
so as soon as I get an Oh,
8:01
as soon as I get another one, I'm up to
8:03
third class. Hell yeah. Ooh. Yeah.
8:07
I'm playing Ulysses Scott
8:09
Burnham or USB.
8:11
Ugh. I forgot about
8:13
that. I want
8:15
to be a professional esports player
8:17
and I can plug in USBs
8:19
correct the first time. However,
8:22
I have upgraded and now
8:24
a third class hero, I
8:26
believe. And that means
8:28
I can get anything in correctly the
8:31
first time. But only the first time.
8:34
Only the first time. Only
8:36
the first time. Afterwards, I need to at least give
8:38
it a try, but I can shoot
8:41
hoops. Shoot that first hoop
8:43
like nobody's business. I have
8:45
questions for you afterwards regarding
8:47
these powers. Candice, I'm glad that you
8:49
said it because I was trying so hard not to
8:51
make that joke. There was a pause there where
8:53
I waited for people to say it. I've
8:56
been surprised that no one has so far because I've
8:59
thought about it every time. I was like, well, it's
9:01
uncouth if I bring it up. We're trying to
9:03
keep it peaceful. Yeah. I
9:09
have been playing Eagle. Eagle!
9:12
And. Oh my god. Yeah.
9:15
And Eagle is great at starting
9:17
pigeons. That's his power. But
9:20
he has since ascended into third class
9:22
or third tier in which
9:24
he is pretty good at employing pigeons and
9:26
asking them to do things. Yeah. And
9:29
I think we've established that he can understand pigeons too. Yeah.
9:33
Yeah. And he wants to fly. Oh
9:35
yeah. His dream is to fly. Yeah. If
9:38
you're a pigeon, submit your resume. Take
9:42
an application. You've got spots on the hill. Eagle
9:44
is hiring. So
9:46
I guess that leaves me. I'm flossing
9:49
fast. Flossy! I'm
9:51
really good at applying band-aids. My
9:53
dream is that I'd like to be a stunt person
9:55
someday. Yeah. My vice
9:57
fool is only four because I'm just a wee baby. Oh,
10:00
we've been bad. Oh Okay
10:04
That's everyone so we're
10:07
gonna get back to roughly where we left off
10:09
and and by that I mean we're gonna get off
10:12
to Exactly where I remember
10:14
which is that? Fuck
10:17
me. I got I got I got
10:19
you if you want to do What
10:22
just happened? Do I do
10:24
it? Is it my shitty
10:26
headphones are hold on are
10:28
literally taped together like this either They're
10:30
like sell a tape. I don't want
10:33
to say it So don't So
10:53
a a dust
10:55
storm Has
10:58
turned into a sort of
11:00
typhoon that has Flung
11:04
eagle and also
11:06
two of the pigeons named
11:09
Lynyrd and skinnered one
11:12
of them got flung for sure maybe
11:14
both. Mm-hmm and U.S.
11:18
East USB got attempted
11:20
murdered out the window but has
11:25
Has stopped it and now is
11:27
everybody fully outside and on the ground. Oh,
11:30
yeah, we're all outside. We're on the ground
11:32
We met up we met up in the
11:34
yeah, we're all here. We've watched Eagle get
11:37
fucking beamed literally
11:47
Really cool shit where you know got it
11:49
in on the first try It was being things
11:52
threw it into the mouth of the cyclone monster
11:54
and then the monster spit it out Trying
11:56
to get Leonard slash skinnered and you
11:59
go say saved the
12:01
bird, took it in the chest. Yeah, it's
12:03
like the can of beans to the chest.
12:06
Very anime. I think there's like dust settling.
12:08
I mean, it's like a clock down or something like that. Yeah.
12:11
Yeah. I was in the GM seat, I think, when we
12:13
left off. If anybody wants to... Also,
12:16
clarification. Dylan, when I'm the GM, does that
12:18
mean that I get the podcast too? You
12:23
get to... Yeah, you get full control over
12:25
the heroes as well. Okay, so whoever...
12:27
Whoever... I'm the man. Yeah.
12:30
I'm the episode. Get to the show. I know
12:33
that you also like... This is how James should have done it the
12:35
first time. I understand that
12:37
you've put a lot of effort into picking the
12:39
new host for the show. I, however, have a
12:41
better idea. How about we
12:43
make it a fashion advantage? Dueling
12:46
banjos of... Uh-huh.
12:49
Uh-huh. Perfect. I'm
12:53
gonna relinquish my DM hands because I feel
12:55
like I want somebody else to take
12:58
control of this little toboggan. Well,
13:00
Dylan, do you want to ease us back
13:02
in to the world
13:04
and the setting and then we can have
13:07
a... Sure. I
13:09
think it's at this point that the
13:13
sort of cyclone expands
13:19
and is gonna like sort of rush
13:22
off to the beach. It's
13:24
gonna just like pick up a bunch of water.
13:27
There's a beach? Yeah. We've been
13:29
at a skate park. Oh, yeah. Which
13:32
is usually like I think like right on the
13:34
beach. Oh, yeah. Everything on the skate park
13:36
is. Because I've learned everything that I know about California
13:38
from movies from
13:40
the 90s. So I'm assuming that.
13:44
And so it's gonna like go to like shoot
13:46
out into the beach and like gather up a
13:48
bunch of water. And now like
13:51
this sort of like
13:53
rainstorm has gathered overhead. And
13:55
the sandstorm itself is like.
14:00
coming back around. I know
14:02
you want me to. And like building
14:04
itself up full of like
14:06
water that's sort of like encircling
14:08
it in like these. But
14:10
we simply don't have the license. Sort
14:12
of sharp edges
14:15
around like the center of the cyclone.
14:19
For Darude's sandstorm, I'm
14:21
sorry. You'll just have to imagine it.
14:24
And it is sort of heading back your
14:26
way. You have
14:28
like, we all have probably like five
14:31
minutes before it's back into like
14:33
the town where people
14:35
are again. Pound
14:39
town. Does
14:43
USB know Flossy before
14:45
today? I feel like he just
14:47
met. Just met. So
14:49
I don't know their
14:52
prowess of being able to
14:54
put on first
14:56
aid things really well. That
15:00
might be new. Although she was like
15:02
putting on little plasters when you
15:04
all rolled up, I think. I was plastering
15:06
the little holes in the ground so we
15:09
wouldn't have as many dust devils. Oh,
15:11
yeah. I tell you what
15:14
then, USB will see you doing
15:16
that. Or
15:18
rather like see like a first aid kit.
15:20
And then look toward Eagle who is just
15:23
again, literally like almost has a hole
15:25
through them through how hard they got
15:28
beamed. Hey, I don't suppose
15:30
that you could get
15:32
our little guy over here
15:34
all built up and ready so we can go
15:36
take that thing on. Are
15:40
you like talking to me? Hey,
15:47
listen, all I see, the only person in the world right
15:50
now is you and me. We're the only two people, of
15:52
course I'm speaking to you. I
15:58
made a hard character choice with my guy right now. Big
16:04
swings. I
16:06
think Fluffy looks at you and hands
16:08
you like a fistful of
16:11
little plastic packets of
16:13
band-aids while making way too much eye contact
16:15
and like they lean in. Well,
16:19
whatever you need, I'm here for
16:21
you. I've been like
16:23
talking to Una a little bit today,
16:25
but I don't know, like maybe, I
16:27
don't know,
16:30
like maybe she wouldn't mind like we're trying to
16:32
save the world. So I just
16:35
like have to consider that they're like,
16:37
you know, just like other, just stay
16:39
right here. And
16:42
she runs away to Una
16:44
and tries to bring her
16:46
back with them. Oh yeah,
16:48
absolutely. Yeah, for sure. So
16:52
I was like helping this person.
16:56
What is your name? Zip drive? Oh,
16:59
my name? Yeah.
17:04
Ulysses Scott Burnham, but you can call me USP. Don't
17:06
worry about it. USB. Right.
17:09
Sorry. Okay. So USB
17:11
was here talking to me and watching as I was
17:14
like trying to save the world since you like so
17:16
dashingly saved me earlier today. And
17:20
I was wondering, would you be okay if like
17:22
he just like wanted to make me his Sun
17:24
Moon and stars? Because it's like, that's the vibe
17:26
that I'm getting right now from this person. But
17:29
like, they're like really interested. And like,
17:31
I had a really good time with you and I'm
17:33
still super interested. But also, I just like wanted to
17:35
make sure that like, everybody was cool.
17:37
And we just like have a nice time. Oh,
17:41
wow. Flossie,
17:45
I'll be honest, I've never done anything like
17:47
this before. But like, to spend some time
17:49
with you. I'm so totally
17:51
down to give it a try. Okay,
17:54
can I just tell you I might fucking die. I
17:56
just might. Right now on this. Okay,
18:00
USB. What did you want to ask me
18:02
again to do what with you? Our
18:06
friend... Eagle's bleeding out.
18:09
And I'm cycloning Eagle! A dead eagle!
18:13
There's no eagles dying! And a cyclone
18:15
is heading your way. We've
18:19
got a bandage big enough to patch up this hole in our
18:21
little friend over here. Oh
18:24
my god, that's terrible. You
18:26
know what I can do though, is I'm
18:28
really good at sticking these plasters. So
18:31
I'm just going to make a little plaster quilt
18:34
that hopefully will be large enough to bridge
18:36
the gap of his entrails. Oh
18:41
my god, roll me some
18:43
dice and scottum, wishing for
18:45
some sixes. I want to
18:47
see... I
18:49
have a really hard time, you guys. Promise
18:53
me you'll still love me if I kill this guy. That's two
18:55
three's, a six and a five. Okay,
18:57
okay, okay. Alright, so you're going to add
18:59
another die to your dice pool. Hooray.
19:03
And you definitely succeed in
19:05
healing Eagle. Yeah,
19:08
so Eagle, you open your eyes and... Slottum
19:12
is like really, really close to
19:14
it. Are
19:16
you okay? Your friend
19:18
has been so worried about you. Why
19:21
are there pigeons everywhere? Is that a you thing or a me
19:24
thing? Is
19:26
Skidderd okay? Skidderd is my
19:28
pigeon. Oh,
19:31
that little guy? Yeah,
19:33
he's like, he flew into that tree. Okay,
19:38
that means he's safe. Oh my god. He
19:40
shit a lot, like a lot. Like
19:45
right after you dove in
19:47
front of him, he just
19:49
like, unleashed, man. That's
19:53
pretty par for the course for Skidderd. He's got IBS.
19:57
But my friend, he's... I
20:00
made sure that I was okay, it's amazing. Thank
20:02
you. Who are you?
20:05
My name's Eagle. Oh yeah, no,
20:07
we just met. We
20:09
met. Dylan, sorry, you're like bleeding
20:11
out. Maybe it's like all the blood's
20:13
leaving your brain, but yeah, we
20:16
just met each other. Hi. I'm
20:18
Una though. Una and
20:21
sorry, you are? Me?
20:23
Oh, I'm Flossy. Hello. Good
20:26
day to you too, Flossy. Did we save
20:28
the day? Oh my
20:31
god, what? Did we sleep? Best day
20:33
of my life. Cute
20:37
has been just eaten like fresh
20:39
raw beans out of the can.
20:41
Oh, that is. Calling
20:43
beans out of a can fresh is... Has
20:48
not drained the liquid, it's like soup. No.
20:53
You got that bean liquid. Hey, my guy.
20:56
You're pounding those beans. That's pretty cool. You
20:58
should come hang out with us. We should
21:00
try to figure this shit out together. Oh
21:03
yeah, there's definitely like... There's
21:06
like a real cyclone over there. Oh
21:08
yeah. The
21:11
cyclone definitely seems to be getting
21:13
closer and closer and
21:15
two is gonna come over to Eagle and be like,
21:18
it'll help you get stronger and like
21:20
gives you like a spoonful of
21:22
beans. Just rubs it in there. Yeah,
21:24
just gives you a spoonful. Roll.
21:27
Yeah. Roll for
21:29
beans. Roll for beans. I'm rolling for
21:31
beans baby. These
21:33
beans are gonna make you feel like God.
21:38
Cute watched Popeye and was like I could do
21:41
that with beans. All right,
21:43
I succeeded and I got another six. So
21:45
I'm going up to a class
21:48
two second-class hero. Damn. So I'm
21:50
back down to three dice. So
21:54
it I'm gonna say it was
21:56
like a medium success. It was about half. So
21:59
I'm thinking that these beans, first
22:01
of all, I think that
22:03
the particular brand of bean that I shoveled
22:06
into your face is like not,
22:08
it's not, it's not great. They're like, I
22:11
want to say Pinto. They're a
22:13
little hard. Like, you know, uncooked.
22:15
They're, they're not, they're not great
22:18
raw. It's
22:20
a can of beans without like the gravy or
22:22
the sauce. It's just the bean, the bean water.
22:25
What do you think that water is? Beans and beans.
22:27
Yeah, the bean. The bean. Water
22:30
isn't gravy, babe. I really feel like we need
22:32
to. Any liquid
22:34
that's at all flavored is gravy from
22:37
now on. Oh, that is, that is
22:39
powerful sauce. Okay.
22:42
You must be fires to into
22:44
the sun. Out of it. And
22:49
you hit it perfectly. It's incredible. And I think
22:51
now, about this time, you're starting to
22:53
feel back to your life. Back
22:57
to your old self between, uh, between
23:00
getting bandaged up and getting all your
23:02
like wounds filled in by philosophy fast
23:04
and having the energizing power of
23:07
being juice. Uh, now
23:09
in your system that you're all up
23:11
and ready to go. And it's just at that
23:13
time that this cyclone like comes circling
23:15
back around to this building that we're in
23:19
and Ulysses, you look up and
23:21
you see like out the window that
23:23
you were just pushed out of like
23:25
earlier is Frankie,
23:27
your nemesis. Cause like hanging out the
23:29
window, looking for you and like trying
23:31
to figure out where you are. And
23:34
the cyclone comes around and like just
23:36
yoinks him out of the zone. Frankie
23:42
is now spinning around in
23:46
this cyclone and Frankie's pissed.
23:48
And so I think the cycle is
23:50
coming around and Frankie swinging arm. Oh,
23:53
this is a puss in psycho now. You
23:59
said it, you said it had. edges too now
24:01
what edges of water it's
24:03
okay yeah yeah oh damn
24:06
okay we totally need
24:08
a way to slow the cyclone down whoa
24:10
that guy's punching hard that guy really
24:12
doesn't like you USB what's up with
24:14
that fuck
24:17
this mom I hate that yeah go years ago
24:22
really yeah it was an office party and I
24:24
didn't realize people just
24:27
kind of say that but
24:29
you mean it he brought his
24:31
yeah the office party yeah
24:34
both of them he has two moms and both
24:36
and the gay moms but they're bi and I
24:38
you know I had
24:41
a good good day on fortnight
24:43
so it's really particularly confident and
24:45
mom's do
24:49
play fortnight I mean a professional
24:51
quick to e-sports team break to
24:53
play trio
25:04
in fortnight and we
25:06
took home a victory royale and they thought that was
25:08
super good it
25:11
actually used to be all four of us because me
25:14
and Frankie we grew up together and
25:16
it was way more of a story
25:18
here like in four out of five cases
25:26
of somebody fucking someone else's mom it
25:28
has to do with fortnight oh
25:31
yeah yeah see
25:33
I thought it was gonna be like it's someone you
25:35
know no it's definitely a
25:41
fortnight for sure okay cool this fucking
25:43
sorry I asked what like what no
25:57
this cyclone is moving in one direction what if we
25:59
build up another power to make the wind
26:01
go in the other direction and then it
26:03
and then we like utilize it oh
26:05
shit like could we get pigeons
26:07
to go to fly fast the
26:09
other opposite way oh and make
26:11
like a like oh
26:15
wait okay eagle can
26:17
you get your pigeons to fly counter
26:21
counter um likewise
26:24
cyclone wise yeah I can do that
26:26
and then can
26:30
you use the power of beans
26:33
and the wind energy made from
26:35
beans like to speed
26:37
up the pigeons particularly fast
26:39
feed the pigeons there's
26:44
gonna be a really terrible side effect about
26:46
ten minutes later are you
26:51
saying you're gonna feed the pigeons and
26:53
they're gonna fart so they're gonna say
26:57
like nitro boost them I thought
26:59
you were saying that was gonna
27:01
eat all of the beans and
27:03
then his eye originally thought that
27:05
yeah then Una said the other
27:07
thing the other I don't want
27:09
to blast past this as it
27:12
were I did say
27:18
yeah you know what I meant to say
27:20
but it's funny what I did say yeah
27:22
all right yeah
27:42
I'm gonna feed your I'm gonna feed your pigeons
27:44
all these beans like a plan
27:48
come here a little guys and
27:50
like put all my
27:53
hands out why does it
27:55
sound so diabolical shouldn't
27:58
you get like a bonus because you
28:00
have this like pigeon whisperer assisting
28:02
you or something. Yeah, I was going to point
28:04
a button. I think we have to roll
28:07
for this. I think we've got to roll to convince the
28:09
pigeons to eat out of my fucking hand. I don't
28:11
think it's a pretty sight. But what's your
28:14
upgraded beans pallet? Does it have anything to
28:16
do with... Oh, it's beans question mark. It's
28:18
beans question mark. It was beans peeing now.
28:20
Oh, it's beans peeing now. And now it's
28:22
beans question mark. Yeah, exactly. So
28:24
we got quantum position, superposition beans. So the
28:27
future is going to be an exclamation point
28:29
and then you're all fucked.
28:31
Yeah. Beans,
28:34
beans. So I
28:36
got two successes. One of them was
28:38
a six, so I'm adding a new
28:40
diet at my dice pool. Damn. Oh,
28:43
I'm sorry. Lies. I got four successes.
28:45
Holy shit. Yeah, baby. Because I'm
28:47
a success here now, so I only fail on
28:49
a one. And I got none of those. So
28:51
now those pigeons... Well,
28:53
hold on, Eagle. How did you do? I
28:56
rolled two sixes and two ones. Hell
28:58
yeah. So that's like both ends
29:00
of the spectrum, best of both worlds, right?
29:03
It is. I think... What if I propose something
29:06
dark, what do you feel about it? Listen,
29:08
I am here. I
29:11
just think... I don't know if eating beans
29:13
is good for pigeons. I think that this
29:16
works. Oh,
29:18
I can't. But there might
29:20
be. Oh my God. I
29:22
see. I see. That's the wedding race
29:25
rule. You're going to have to put animal death as like
29:27
a content warning on the side note. Oh,
29:29
pigeons on animals. I'm okay with it.
29:32
Oh, get that fuck out of here. You're not so sure
29:34
about the idea. Oh, get this fuck out of here. You're
29:36
not you, Robin. You ripped right off my skin. You are
29:38
a nightmare. I'm
29:41
doing this in fiction. Don't you bring real
29:43
life pigeons into this? But
29:49
yeah, no, I'm in. I'm
29:51
not sure about Eagle, but I'm in. So the
29:53
pigeons eat the beans out of my
29:55
hand and then they start tooting and
29:58
they go flying so fast. Counter. Clockwise,
30:01
counter cyclone wise,
30:04
counter-wind, counter-clone wise. Counter-clone
30:07
wise, thank you so much. To the
30:09
cyclone and it starts to
30:12
miraculously slow down. And
30:14
I think as a consequence of that,
30:17
like the momentum is no longer keeping
30:19
Frankie in the air, punching. And
30:21
he just like sort of starts to drift down
30:24
until he just lands on
30:26
the grass, drags on the ground. However, if I may,
30:28
it does counter it. And
30:37
he slowly like floats down to the ground and
30:40
we're like, hell yeah, we won. But
30:43
then we like look at his face
30:45
and he's smiling. And
30:47
the aura of all
30:50
the beams farting and the cyclone
30:52
has made this like big storm
30:54
cloud in the sky that like
30:56
shoots one bolt of electricity. Now,
30:58
Frankie goes fucking super Satan. Oh
31:04
my God. Back up
31:06
in the air and the cyclone starts again. But
31:08
now it has like the head, the face and
31:10
the head of the cyclone is back. But now
31:12
it has like two arms and two legs and
31:16
he stood like a giant Kaiju
31:18
in the middle of wherever we
31:20
are. This city. The town
31:22
town. Yeah, town town. In
31:25
the middle of town town. And
31:28
it's like bolts of electricity are like
31:30
shooting off of him. And he is
31:33
like laughing maniacally as
31:35
seemingly this plan
31:37
that he may have had
31:40
is now coming to fruition. It
31:43
was Frankie all along. Oh,
31:46
God. Oh,
31:48
no. His
31:51
wives are so atrocious. Oh,
31:54
no. I get
31:57
being depressed, but like making it everyone else.
32:00
problem is so tacky you're
32:02
so right you're
32:04
so right Fluffy I
32:21
don't have so much I need a sound clip of
32:23
that I just
32:25
need that for personal delivery with
32:27
excellent okay
32:31
okay hear me out what if
32:33
I feel like there's like a lot of danger that
32:35
we might go flying I got a lot
32:37
of wires and I'm so good at
32:39
handling them what if we just like
32:41
tied everybody together we all get tied
32:43
up together in a totally platonic way
32:46
and then we just like stay anchored to
32:48
each other oh my god yeah
32:51
what if we get tied together but
32:54
then just to give us extra support Fluffy
32:57
can like use
32:59
their like band-aids to like make sure that
33:02
we're like fully stuck together I can
33:04
do that we can also
33:06
like you what's up I was
33:09
just gonna say like Fluffy can maybe make
33:11
like a little band-aid parachute and
33:13
then we can fly up there and start punching the
33:15
psych bone we can punch Frankie in the face would
33:18
you say get up there I knew there
33:20
was something special about you that's perfect for my tik-tok
33:31
what's tik-tok don't
33:35
worry about it oh yeah it's
33:37
gonna take me way too much time for it like
33:39
me to even begin to explain but it's gonna
33:41
make me famous someday I
33:43
want to be a stunt person oh yeah
33:46
I think that like launching myself
33:48
with my new best friends and
33:50
to potential love interests while
33:52
I am punching a punching cyclone just
33:54
sounds like something Hollywood won't be able
33:56
to get enough of it's gonna be
33:58
sick well no way Toots and Eagle, you're
34:00
two love interests, I'm totally into that. Both
34:04
laugh Neither
34:11
of them said that they were interested, but like, did you,
34:13
did they like say something about me?
34:16
Yeah, Toots, Eagle, how we feeling? Let's
34:18
make this Avengers a polycule. Both
34:21
laugh Every game.
34:25
Every game. For
34:31
context, for everyone. This is the guy.
34:36
You want to get your hands on this. I
34:40
would love to. Hell
34:44
yeah, Game of Thrones. We'll
34:46
be good, we'll be good. You're
34:48
a character. Alright,
34:51
so finding a bunch of
34:54
wires nearby and then handing
34:56
them to Una to unravel.
34:58
Oh yeah, hell yeah,
35:00
oh this helps so much. She went back
35:03
to her guitar case that holds a
35:05
shit ton of cables and one pair of electric spoons.
35:09
And she comes back and has
35:12
the wires in her hand and she's gonna wrap everybody
35:14
up together. Tie us all together
35:16
so that we're secure, but also
35:19
flexible. Yeah, you should do that.
35:23
And then, yeah, I guess we'll do one
35:26
at a time. Yeah, okay,
35:30
I got a fucking a four, four, a five, a two
35:32
and a six, which means I live a
35:34
long. Three,
35:36
three, three, three, four, five, hero. And
35:41
then that also means that you succeeded.
35:43
So you did, you did good. Yes,
35:46
I did good. Oh, these, we
35:48
are so tied together. We're
35:51
tied together. Yeah, flexibility
35:54
and security. Oh,
35:57
perfect. And then if Fluffy
35:59
is made. taking a parachute that's gonna catch us
36:01
in the updraft so we fly up, is that
36:03
correct? Yes. Perfect. How
36:07
many dice until I level to the next one? Six
36:16
dice? I take my six dice and I'm next. When
36:19
you succeed on five, right? You have three to
36:21
start, then four, five and then you level up.
36:23
Perfect. The next time you roll a
36:25
six, yeah. Roll a six. I
36:28
have three threes, a
36:31
four and a five. Ah,
36:34
dang. But that's definitely a six. It's
36:38
really pretty. It's like a patchwork quilt of
36:41
like all kinds of
36:44
shitty brands. So like Star
36:47
Tours and Hello Muscrats
36:50
and Chisney and all
36:53
these like fucked up brands. I
36:58
was not anticipating you having an encyclopedic
37:00
knowledge of band-aids. Like I thought this was just a
37:02
funny little bit. We're doing it
37:05
right now. In my house. You just
37:07
named three band-aid brands. Can I tell
37:09
you? What? In
37:11
my house, I have no shortage of cute band-aids.
37:13
I even have Bob Ross band-aids in this place
37:15
that I'm in. Ooh. Yeah, they're great.
37:17
Got some happy little dreams that you put on your
37:20
wounds. Yeah.
37:30
Welcome to another mid-roll from the Flaming
37:32
Tower of the OSN Studio. I don't
37:35
have to record in the Flaming Tower,
37:37
but I do prefer the warmth, especially
37:39
after I've had lunch. It helps me
37:41
digest. I'm going to quickly remind you
37:44
that the Ultimate RPG Game Master's Guide
37:46
is for sale now, and then Dungeon
37:48
Meister Random Monster Generator is up for
37:51
pre-order. As for me, Dylan,
37:53
you should absolutely catch me on RP
37:55
Geek's channel playing in a game of
37:57
Orbital Blues. We are...
38:00
about to air today the
38:02
third episode in a four
38:04
episode series and
38:06
I might have an ulterior motive related
38:08
to our next upcoming series here on
38:10
OneShot for asking you to check
38:13
this out but I'm not saying
38:15
that for sure I'm just saying
38:17
I might and we'll see. Um.
38:23
So we
38:28
are picked up in an
38:30
up draft? Oh
38:36
I think we have to maneuver. We gotta like
38:39
maneuver the parachute. I
38:45
feel. We have to roll for that
38:47
or have we succeeded enough?
38:50
I think I wasn't there wasn't there something that
38:52
uh that Ulysses was gonna do too or did
38:55
I make that up? No I was just
38:57
I was just grabbing everyone. We
38:59
have Eagle who's like a flight professional. Oh
39:01
Eagle this was like your moment. Yeah I
39:04
was gonna I was yeah I was gonna
39:06
say uh as
39:08
as we're starting to like Eagle's been quiet this
39:10
whole time though as as it's kind of like
39:12
in anticipation to be lifted up into the air
39:14
with all his best friends. Oh my god he's
39:17
flying. And as the wind
39:19
and the the as the
39:22
sail catches wind and the group starts
39:24
to levitate Eagle goes wait
39:27
wait wait wait I have I have the
39:29
perfect song to accompany this moment and
39:32
he rips off the headphones attached
39:34
to his uh music player
39:36
and he presses the button and
39:39
paper planes but MIA starts to
39:41
move out. Oh. Oh.
39:44
So rude. We're gonna
39:46
jump that over with something that
39:48
is Creative Commons. Oh
39:51
I can't even mention it. But
39:53
I'm kidding. That okay that's
39:55
just for awesome. I'm kidding I'm kidding. All
39:57
I want to do is come come come. But
40:01
you'd have two from there. And, um, and
40:04
yeah, the,
40:06
uh, uh, he
40:08
will, he will call to his, his pigeon
40:10
friends to help maneuver so
40:13
that, uh, hell yeah. That way it
40:15
will ease any, I almost did the
40:17
voice. It will ease any sort of,
40:20
um, attempts that we have to
40:23
come back to this punching cyclone. Hell
40:25
yeah. Hell yeah, brother. I'm
40:28
rolling. Five, four, and three
40:32
threes. Nice. And
40:35
your second or third? I'm a, no, I'm a
40:37
third class. Okay.
40:40
But that's still, that's all successes. All successes. Yeah.
40:43
Oh, sweet. Oh yeah. Hell
40:46
yeah. Yeah. So we, we start
40:48
like, we start, uh, levitating and then the pigeons come in
40:50
and they, uh, grab pieces
40:52
of the string and they start
40:55
maneuvering past debris and water and
40:57
updrafts. And in
40:59
the, uh, all the meanwhile, the cyclone is starting to
41:01
like just shuck in punches and
41:03
we're, we're dodging them. Um,
41:05
Frank in the middle starts
41:07
yelling obscenities over at
41:09
USB, just
41:12
calling you out for having no,
41:14
no skill. Uh, he's, he's actually
41:17
accusing you of, uh, of, of
41:19
wall hacks. Oh my
41:21
God. That the Fortnite
41:23
victory that you achieved that eventually led
41:25
to a, uh, a, a passion that
41:28
you've never thought of. That's a low blow. No
41:30
pun intended. Did you flip it there, mom? Based on a
41:32
lie? That's cheap. Not cool,
41:34
man. Listen, he might. Wait, why
41:37
are you all studying? What is funny? If it's true,
41:39
it would be pretty fucking
41:41
crazy if it was true. It's
41:44
not true. Not, not at all. No, I'm
41:47
a, like, uh, I'm a, I'm a third class.
41:49
I'm a third class. I'm a third class. I'm
41:51
a third class. I'm a third class. I'm a
41:53
third class. I'm a third class. I'm a third
41:55
class. I'm a, like, uh, I'm
41:58
a, I'm a real good Fortnite player. And
42:00
hey, listen, even if it was fake,
42:05
he can, you know, he
42:08
can try and devallidate my win, but
42:10
he'll never devallidate the fact that I've
42:13
thought both of his marks. It
42:15
doesn't matter. Robin,
42:19
are you afraid that you might get cancelled for this
42:21
episode? Our
42:24
last episode was called Slut
42:27
City the Musical, I think
42:29
I'm safe. Yeah, absolutely incredible.
42:33
Yeah, fantastic. Shit, God,
42:35
that's funny. I think, so
42:37
what's the plan? I think I lost
42:39
track of what the plan is so far. We're not
42:42
trying to punch this guy in the face. Yeah,
42:44
we're getting even close. We're just like trying to,
42:46
yeah, find an opening. It sounds like he's calling you
42:48
a F.B. out, though. Yeah,
42:52
USBA, I think you got to punch him. You
42:54
all made a punch him? I mean, is your power
42:56
to stick it right every time? Because technically this is
42:58
sticking it. That's true,
43:00
I could stick it right to him. Just one.
43:02
Just the first time. Better make it count. When
43:04
does that cover all punches that USBA has ever
43:07
done? Or is it like... I think
43:09
it's when it activated, when
43:11
like the power starts, then
43:14
it's the first time I do it after. Oh,
43:17
that's convenient. It
43:21
refreshes. Fuck you, really? Oh, it doesn't.
43:23
Holy crap. I have to
43:25
hit it. But
43:30
I will still say, this is the
43:32
first time I've tried to punch this
43:34
guy, was in a flying mech, was
43:36
he in a kaiju, so I've seen
43:38
you count. I
43:42
think I'm still going to get this one, actually. Oh
43:49
my god, we're in the drift. We're in the drift
43:51
so deep. I think what's going to happen to, after
43:53
you punch him, supposes
43:56
that you do it correctly. I will
43:58
try to do an extra... extra move.
44:00
An extra little move. Yeah. So we
44:02
are in the trap. This is Pacific
44:05
Rim. That's as
44:07
much as I can do with that game.
44:09
Um, starts playing as we,
44:11
as I go to, I got a one or two
44:15
and a four. That
44:19
is what one success. That's
44:21
one success. I think I'm too much in my
44:24
own head. Yeah. About the fact that my team
44:26
has just turned against me. How we supposed to
44:28
get number one victory Royal if I've got no
44:30
squad backing. Sure you've got a lot of criticism.
44:34
What do you mean? Is your team holding you accountable?
44:36
And I, and you and the
44:41
team emotionally cannot handle it. Oh, that's right.
44:43
That's right. He is a gamer. Yeah.
44:49
I think like go through this
44:52
punch and like the pigeons get
44:54
us close. You have the opening
44:57
to just everything. Perfect. But
45:00
the punch sucks. I like throw it and
45:02
I just like my wrist just bends really
45:04
wrong again. Like as,
45:07
as I go to punch him, it's
45:09
like a clean shot in the face and then like
45:11
one piece of like driftwood fly past and then crack
45:14
it on my wrist. But you break your
45:16
hand. Yeah. Fuck it. I
45:19
break my heart. Break
45:21
that hand. Yeah. Not the
45:23
fan. And I, I get
45:25
exact. That's the thing just about. Oh, no,
45:27
not the, not the
45:29
Eastport. Yeah. So they use
45:31
it for that, right? Yeah. So I throw you
45:34
the beans. Are you
45:47
going to, are you going to drink the bean juice? We do.
45:49
I'm obviously going to try and drink the
45:51
beans. All right. All right. Maybe
45:53
we got three
45:55
successes. Oh,
45:57
delicious. And then I guess I I
46:00
guess I grab it and then I crush
46:02
it, crush the can and then again like
46:04
Popeye, all the beans shoot out of the
46:06
can and go down into my gullet. Yeah.
46:09
And I grow muscles for the first
46:11
time. Yeah. I'm a weirdly pissy
46:13
little guy but now I've just grown Popeye-esque muscles. You
46:15
didn't say yet. I don't
46:17
want to take up two rolls in a
46:19
row but I think, you
46:22
know, I think I grow, instead of taking two
46:24
rolls in a row, I think I grow the
46:26
muscles but in this like, in these
46:28
animation eye frames of
46:31
me like getting this superpower.
46:34
Frankie I think sees an opening and
46:39
kind of grabs Ulysses and
46:41
then picks him up really high in the
46:43
air to like slam the whole team down
46:45
since we're all like perfectly connected. Oh yeah.
46:48
We're all flying down to be slammed on
46:50
the ground because of this Kaiju. So
46:52
I'm ready for another punch and
46:55
I can but he's like fully
46:57
grabbed my body. Oh he's grabble.
46:59
Can we, can Flossy
47:01
Fouts maybe reinforce us because
47:04
we're being flung around right now. I
47:06
feel like, I feel like we need
47:09
more stability. I absolutely can.
47:14
You take out some bandages little airplanes on for
47:16
extra. Yeah.
47:19
Oh nice. Nice. No
47:21
she cannot. Eagles of the fan. No.
47:24
No. No. I
47:26
think we're going to have one's, a two, a three and a four. Oh
47:30
shit. Dang. Well
47:33
that four is still a success, isn't
47:35
it? A four is one success I
47:37
believe. Alright alright alright
47:39
so we gotta give you something. What
47:44
do you think? What do you think Robin? Well I
47:47
was thinking we like, this
47:50
should be like the end of us. We
47:52
are all getting slammed to the ground. Yeah.
48:00
Just before we hit the ground Flossy's like
48:03
did detaches all
48:06
of the like the band-aids that are holding
48:08
us real tight together and then forms like
48:10
a small trampoline so the mech that we've
48:12
built Like kind
48:14
of bursts apart, but we are all
48:17
still alive Like
48:19
last minute like Parachute
48:23
works cuz I rolled really well on that
48:25
so we definitely can be safe. Oh, there
48:27
you go Yeah, there it is. I
48:29
was just saving just now to
48:32
be able to kind of like reinforce
48:34
us Yeah
48:37
Yeah, maybe it's like the parachute
48:39
saves the day. I feel so bad the
48:41
parachute. Yeah Yeah, absolutely
48:45
Yeah, we all like hit the
48:47
ground pretty hard But the parachute was able
48:49
to like slow our descent so we don't
48:51
yeah completely beef it I think when she hits
48:53
the ground she's like really embarrassed their
48:55
faces It's turning like a
48:58
like a deep blush like around like the
49:00
cheek and chin area Mm-hmm, and
49:02
they're like looking off to the
49:04
side. They're very embarrassed that they're beautiful idea
49:06
did not work Slams
49:10
the ground real hard with this bit is now
49:12
very muscly fist And
49:15
is that you know what it's just like on all fours like
49:18
like Like this kind
49:20
of like pounding the ground very
49:23
Upset thinking that we've lost USB
49:25
is destroyed. Don't
49:28
worry about it, and I'm gonna And
49:34
I'm gonna sprinkle some beans into the ground right
49:36
at our feet and I'm
49:38
gonna roll before I Say
49:42
how this is how I feel like okay? I
49:47
Think you know what happened. Yeah, I pulled this
49:49
shit with my game masters all the fucking time where
49:52
I'm like I do this thing and I do
49:54
this thing and then wait Let me roll because I have to
49:56
roll before I say the cool thing I want to
49:58
do Really embarrassing if I described the whole whole
50:00
thing and then I roll fucking clown shoes.
50:02
Exactly. But that
50:04
is going to be a success. That's four
50:06
successes. One was a six. So
50:08
I'm back up to five dice. I am almost the first.
50:11
Yes. Beautiful beans.
50:14
I sprinkle the
50:16
beans into the ground. A rumbling
50:18
occurs under feet as
50:21
a giant beanstalk emerges
50:24
from the ground, lifting
50:26
us all within its branches
50:28
to the exact perfect punching
50:30
height of the kaidu. Beans,
50:34
can I take some of
50:36
the wires that I have acquired and
50:39
lasso Frankie to try and like
50:44
pull them closer? Do you get us right up
50:46
on them? Yeah. Okay.
50:49
Lasso. Delicious. Lasso
50:51
that boy. Lasso the boy. All
50:53
right. Here we go. Fuck
50:55
you, Frankie. Fuck up. Okay.
50:59
Well, I mean, it's not bad. It's a four,
51:01
a four and a five. That's pretty good. So
51:03
that's all successes. That's all successes. That's all
51:05
successes. You're really not bad at that. Hell
51:07
yeah. Someone tell me
51:09
how bad I beat his how
51:11
good I put someone. I think
51:14
what you do is all success, right? You
51:19
very quickly fashion together all these wires and
51:21
cables and everything. And there's no way this
51:24
works, but you defy all odds. You
51:27
chuck your lasso hundreds of yards
51:29
into this light cyclone and grab
51:32
Frank by the waist, pull
51:34
him in and start the
51:37
rounds. Like, I don't know, pulling him, but then
51:39
he starts circling. I don't know what to call that.
51:42
But around around
51:44
and around and
51:47
consecutive with a piece of
51:49
debris, we can
51:51
hear and you yank him towards
51:54
him. He starts rushing in to
51:56
line up for the perfect punch
51:58
to be delivered by. I
52:01
need help somebody help
52:03
me pull this pull this guy
52:05
in I Cursed
52:07
too much in the first half and I'm trying to curse less In
52:10
the second half here in the second half. I've learned
52:12
I've grown Great
52:15
to hear Not
52:27
yell anymore so Actually,
52:30
hey if we need like If
52:34
people are lining up for like the perfect punch You
52:37
know like I know that you have
52:40
control over pigeons, but is there any way you could
52:42
get like a bigger bird to to
52:46
kind of distract them or Power
52:49
up your punch with their shot beaks and claws.
52:51
I never thought of
52:53
that a bigger bird a bigger
52:55
bird Big in pigeons with
52:58
that with the encouragement of USB
53:02
You see you see Eagle do like
53:04
the professor X thing As
53:10
the output a plea to all
53:13
of bird Kingdom the birds on
53:17
Domain expansion I'm
53:23
going to I'm going to roll before
53:25
the That's
53:33
really good to
53:35
sit this I move up to a second class
53:42
And I'm
53:45
gonna say all the
53:47
pigeons come in They
53:50
start they start Responding
53:52
to the message, but no bigger birds for some
53:54
reason and then as Eagle
53:58
opens his eyes hit
54:00
an aura of
54:03
wings. Sprouts from
54:05
his arms. The
54:09
abbot, the bird. Holy
54:12
shit. And he goes, the
54:18
great bird was inside me all along.
54:26
He grabs the last one, jumps off this
54:28
giant bean sock leaf to
54:31
basically dangle
54:34
Frankie around and just make
54:36
sure that he can't get control over the
54:38
situation. Oh, hell
54:40
yeah. Fauci,
54:44
USB, we gotta use our big
54:46
strong arms to punch the shit out of this
54:48
guy. I know how to do a
54:50
stunt farm. I curse again and I was trying to
54:52
not do that. I'm sorry. I'm getting
54:55
better. I know how to do stunt punches mostly.
54:57
So, if it really hurt, I could just
55:01
make it look good. Does that
55:04
count for anything? But
55:06
what if, Fauci, what if
55:09
you did the stunt punch
55:11
but then connected? You're blowing my
55:13
mind right now. It's like
55:16
30 centimeters closer. Yeah.
55:21
You're asking me to use
55:23
my powers for evil. No.
55:27
I don't even know this guy and he
55:36
sucks. You know, I think
55:38
we do need to take a moment and
55:41
give attention to what Fauci has just brought
55:43
up because USB, you did fuck his
55:45
moms. I didn't need to punch him
55:47
super hard
55:49
with an apology. That's
55:51
all, you know? So
55:53
insane. All loud
55:56
and clear and I set him up, dangle
55:58
him in front of you just in person. perfect
56:00
position for an apology as opposed
56:02
to a punch, which is
56:04
six inches to the left. Damn
56:09
it. Can I feed
56:11
you a spoonful of beans to
56:13
humble you? Of emotional beans? Yeah. Humble
56:16
pie? Now with more beans? Humble beans.
56:19
Humble beans. You'll feel humble after you've
56:21
eaten cold, bad beans. I'm taking a slice of
56:23
humble pie, but the pie is beans. It's
56:26
bean pie. And then you'll feel more equipped
56:28
to give an apology.
56:30
I think that's the good idea. Oh, humble personally. I'm going
56:33
to roll for it. Roll with the beans. Go on,
56:35
USB. That is five successes. It's not what your name
56:37
is. Now you have to leave. The beans fill
56:39
you with clarity. Clarity that you've never
56:41
had before. You
56:51
see all of the
56:53
ways that you've, all of
56:56
the things in life that you've done
56:58
right and all of the things that
57:00
you've done wrong sitting on a scale
57:02
against a feather. You
57:16
see all of the folds of your life
57:18
laid out and
57:20
know exactly what you have
57:22
to say to
57:25
make amends with Frankie.
57:28
For fucking his mom. Hey,
57:32
dude. I've never been
57:34
more sorry. I ain't got to say that. Straight up. No.
57:37
No. Hey, listen. I
57:44
understand that it was, it's not cool
57:46
for, it's not, it
57:48
wasn't cool of me to sleep with both of your moms after
57:50
I got that real sweet headshot. I
57:53
ended up winning number one victory
57:55
royale. But hey, listen. How
57:58
about. We
58:00
go back to mine, we get some pizza, and
58:02
maybe we play some duos. Just you and me.
58:04
We just, we just squawed
58:06
up, and we, uh... And
58:10
we just play Fortnite, until the sun
58:12
comes up, like the old days. I'll,
58:16
you know, delete both your moms from my
58:19
phone, and then I can't contact them again.
58:22
How about that? Can
58:24
we roll for Bean Poly? I
58:26
think you gotta, I think, I mean, you
58:29
gotta... You
58:31
got, you got a lot of heavy assists from the Bean,
58:33
uh, prophecy. But
58:35
I think you still have prophecy. Yeah.
58:39
5-5-6. Yeah, and then
58:41
you die. That's a solid apology. Can
58:45
I, can I have a solid apology? Can
58:47
I have a solid apology? Yes, please.
58:49
How about, take the wheel? There's
58:53
a mo- there's a beat. I
58:56
was gonna say bean, but... There's
58:59
a bean. There's
59:03
a bean in time, where the
59:05
cyclone appears to freeze.
59:09
The wind stops whipping, everything falls
59:11
silent for a quick second, and
59:14
Frankie looks down. You can't really see his
59:17
face. And then looks
59:19
up, tears streaming
59:22
down his face. I
59:24
can't remember Frank's, uh, Frank's voice, but
59:26
I'm just gonna... USB.
59:31
This is the real him. Pikes.
59:37
Whoever he was before. I
59:42
would love nothing more than to
59:45
join forces with my greatest
59:47
rival in Fortnite.
59:51
I think it's cool that you slept with my mom. Thank
59:56
you. If
1:00:00
you want, it
1:00:02
is. Hey, if
1:00:04
you want, you can sleep with my dad.
1:00:08
Gollum, Ian. Already
1:00:11
did. Yeah!
1:00:16
Hell yeah, brother. We both died. Bean
1:00:26
out? Bean out? I
1:00:31
think... Frame on
1:00:33
the handshake, everybody's smiling. It's
1:00:36
the thing from Predator where both of
1:00:38
us like... Oh, that's amazing. Yeah.
1:00:42
Here's the thing. Frankie
1:00:45
and Ulysses have made up,
1:00:47
and they're about to go play Fortnite, except
1:00:51
the Cyclone and the Kaiju
1:00:53
form are already in motion.
1:00:55
This is... Oh, shit. They're
1:00:57
already done, and there's now like... Oh,
1:01:00
no. An escalation going off, and now Frankie's
1:01:02
not even in the driver's seat. So
1:01:04
Frankie can't stop it
1:01:06
anymore. The storm and
1:01:08
Kaiju form are just
1:01:10
sort of wreaking havoc
1:01:12
now in like the
1:01:15
city behind you. Frankie,
1:01:17
this thing got so juiced up off
1:01:20
of all your bad vibes, and now it's like
1:01:22
unstoppable. We need to
1:01:24
counter the vibes. I don't
1:01:26
know how to do that. How do we stop it? How
1:01:28
do we stop bad vibes? I
1:01:32
mean, your election soon put me in such
1:01:34
a good mood earlier. I just don't... Like,
1:01:37
I feel like you could really cheer anyone up like
1:01:39
that, and then like I could give compliments. I'm really
1:01:42
good at like applying band-aids, and I feel like compliments
1:01:44
are like verbal band-aids, you know, because it's like a
1:01:46
stopgap for someone feeling like shit. Yes. And
1:01:49
if we got a speaker and we were able
1:01:51
to play it loud enough... I have a speaker.
1:01:53
Maybe we... Hell yeah. And
1:01:55
then we can maybe make it sound so the
1:01:58
whole cyclone can hear it, because the cyclone... really
1:02:00
loud so we would be sound
1:02:02
yeah yeah yeah louder than the cyclist oh my god
1:02:04
that's why it's like a five they can't
1:02:06
hear all the beautiful love that we've
1:02:08
been sharing between us yeah you
1:02:12
discovered the Frankie
1:02:16
Frankie when all this
1:02:18
is coming together Frankie's
1:02:33
like I think you you discovered the
1:02:35
secret combating bad vibes good
1:02:38
vibes long
1:02:40
vibes oh
1:02:42
shit fucking
1:02:45

1:03:00
give me some electric bullshit from
1:03:02
over there and pigeons are picking
1:03:05
everything up and bringing them to you
1:03:07
I'm gonna I'm gonna gas power this
1:03:09
the speaker and
1:03:28
I let's see let's see what we got right now
1:03:30
that's a fuck everyone want to roll to
1:03:32
see how successful it is because it's like oh
1:03:35
yeah cuz Oona is the one who's playing
1:03:37
the thing Flossy
1:03:40
is being like is like being the
1:03:42
support rhythmic power pigeons are helping and
1:03:44
then also I've got to plug it
1:03:46
in right yeah
1:03:50
I am I'm a hero now
1:03:52
so nothing I do can fail
1:03:54
oh yeah damn yeah I got I got
1:03:56
two sixes and a five but I got
1:03:59
once two fours and a five. Oh
1:04:03
shit. I actually, I got, I rolled really badly. I
1:04:05
got a five and
1:04:07
then a two and a one. Oh
1:04:10
my God. So success. It's
1:04:12
one success. Yeah.
1:04:16
She's like, she's not like rocking
1:04:18
it, but she's like so,
1:04:21
she's a competent spoons player. She's like
1:04:23
pairing it up rhythmically. It's going so
1:04:25
hard, but like she's a little bit
1:04:28
lost her emotions. The performance is a
1:04:30
little lackluster because she's like, how
1:04:32
am I supposed to do this on my own? And
1:04:35
then Flossy comes up behind her and it's like,
1:04:37
I don't know,
1:04:39
Flossy, what's a compliment? Flossy would say. I
1:04:41
mean, do you need the compliment more than the
1:04:43
cyclone? Nah,
1:04:45
give it to the cyclone. You know,
1:04:47
I really admire how you just like
1:04:50
keep going no matter what. Like you
1:04:52
just are such a force of nature,
1:04:54
literally. And I really wish that
1:04:56
I could be like that. It's so hard
1:04:58
not to give up sometimes. And that's not
1:05:00
saying you should give up now. That's just
1:05:02
saying like maybe a timeout and some chill
1:05:04
time with your friends, I E S would
1:05:06
like make your day a lot better and
1:05:08
reinvigorate you for your next spin cycle. I
1:05:13
am going to go out on a limb. I
1:05:15
feel like this is one of
1:05:17
those moments where you're talking to
1:05:19
the cyclone, but all of us
1:05:21
are like internalizing that compliment to
1:05:24
our present day. Like, like
1:05:26
things like when a monologue happens
1:05:28
in Scrap. In
1:05:32
the anime, it's just like
1:05:34
flashing to everybody's faces. Yeah.
1:05:36
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Anime
1:05:39
sounds. And
1:05:48
the theme song from Scrubs is Superman. Who
1:05:50
does? Oh, my God. Come back and write.
1:05:54
Hell yeah. And then like, guess
1:05:57
help from Eagle and from
1:05:59
Ulysses. And
1:06:01
just like that those good feelings flood
1:06:03
her and she just like starts jamming
1:06:05
hard with her spoons nice
1:06:09
the The waves of
1:06:11
good vibes take over the team and
1:06:13
it starts to turn into the cave
1:06:15
dance From the matrix, but
1:06:18
it's just the six of us Oh
1:06:33
My god, I just re-watched the Matrix trilogy,
1:06:36
so that is such a timely reference for
1:06:38
me you're welcome The
1:06:43
the cyclone storm the
1:06:45
the face in the storm at
1:06:47
first goes from this Fury
1:06:49
this anger from being burst through
1:06:52
Frankie's bad vibes to confusion over
1:06:54
the monologue that that can is
1:06:56
provided and then Starts
1:06:58
to instead of instead of confusion now It's
1:07:00

1:09:19
I'll do pretty good I
1:09:26
mean we We
1:09:29
high five right there Credit
1:09:36
cuts with like freeze frames of all of
1:09:38
us like in five
1:09:40
years this person went to this place Yeah,
1:09:43
I think it's like you went to the University
1:09:45
of eSports Mine
1:09:48
for mine for toot is that
1:09:50
ten minutes after this fight? To
1:09:53
and it's just like an image of
1:09:55
toot cutting up the vines into like
1:09:58
a big bowl with the leftover beans
1:10:00
and is making their bean
1:10:02
salad. Bean
1:10:05
salad. Yummy, yummy. I
1:10:08
think baby cyclone goes to trade school. Yeah. It
1:10:20
cuts to Eagle. Eagle, and
1:10:22
the caption reads, Eagle achieved his
1:10:25
dream of flight and cares for pigeons
1:10:27
all across the world. Oh,
1:10:30
beautiful. I think
1:10:32
Flossy's is like her,
1:10:34
just like a free frame of her like
1:10:36
mid-air on a BMX bike, applying
1:10:39
like an array of bandages to
1:10:41
like people that are doing stunts
1:10:44
in the sky so they don't have to land.
1:10:46
They have like a really specialized craft that they
1:10:48
do now. A
1:10:50
medic. A stunt medic right there. A stunt medic.
1:10:52
Not a medic. Correct.
1:10:55
Not a medic for stunts. That's included. Correct.
1:10:57
Yeah. A medic who does stunts at the
1:10:59
same time at the medicating end. They get
1:11:01
a lot of work. Yeah. Wow.
1:11:05
And Una builds
1:11:08
a laser and tragically
1:11:10
dies. Trying to build a laser to
1:11:12
cut the rubber band ball. But
1:11:20
she died happy. She died
1:11:22
so thrilled. She died doing what she loved. She died
1:11:24
doing what she loved, making a fucking
1:11:26
U-flaser. A seven person c-bolly.
1:11:28
She, she died covered in
1:11:30
wires. Cutting wires. By God. I
1:11:33
could have asked for anything else. Damn
1:11:35
it. Because I was also going
1:11:38
to say that in like, like
1:11:41
Frankie and Ulysses became best friends, but after
1:11:43
one year, Frankie kills Ulysses. So I don't
1:11:45
think we can have both of us die.
1:11:49
We will remember you.
1:11:57
So I think they both become esports champions.
1:12:00
only in duos. They get married. Yeah.
1:12:02
They get married. Do they leave the
1:12:04
polycule or do they get married?
1:12:06
No, we're still in the polycule. That's fine.
1:12:08
We get married and stay in the polycule.
1:12:11
It's actually because they get qualified for the
1:12:13
marriage tournament in Fortnite. Frankie gets married to
1:12:15
Ulysses' dad and joins that
1:12:17
polycule. And Ulysses
1:12:19
gets married to Frankie's mum and
1:12:22
joins that polycule. And
1:12:24
then we merge it with this
1:12:26
one. So it's like a clueless situation.
1:12:28
Yeah, it's a very much clueless situation.
1:12:31
It's exactly the same. Risk it for the
1:12:33
rut. Risk it for the rut, baby. We
1:12:38
all rut. Oh, wow. That has been...
1:12:46
That is all of that. That is what it
1:12:48
is. That
1:12:53
has been a dream. Ryan, are you glad we played
1:12:55

1:18:20
I can't wait to have you
1:18:22
back for our next adventure, heroes!
1:18:26
In the universe of Starwall Odyssey,
1:18:28
space is made out of the
1:18:30
collective imaginations of all the thinking
1:18:33
beings who live on various planets.
1:18:35
These worlds are connected to each
1:18:37
other through imagination. Common themes and
1:18:39
ideas are strings between universes. And
1:18:41
to get between them, people fly
1:18:44
wooden ships that look like animals, which
1:18:46
are powered by emotions. Also,
1:18:48
people communicate with each other by contemplating
1:18:51
orbs. The only way you can take
1:18:53
pictures is getting stared at by a
1:18:55
big psychic bug, and people have already
1:18:57
declared victory in a war over the
1:18:59
very concept of evil. But I'm getting
1:19:02
ahead of myself. Starwall Odyssey follows the
1:19:04
adventures of the hapless inhabitants of the
1:19:06
Lucky Finn tenement building, who suddenly find
1:19:08
that their apartment is actually a spaceship,
1:19:10
and that they're lost in a sea
1:19:13
of boundless imaginations. It's an actual play
1:19:15
starring me, James Damato, Mel Damato,
1:19:17
Allie Grower, and Drew Merzieski as
1:19:19
we playtest the No King System,
1:19:21
which will hopefully one day be
1:19:23
the Skyjax role-playing systems. It toes
1:19:26
the line between weird and wonderful
1:19:28
slice of life and high-flying space
1:19:30
fantasy. You can sample the first
1:19:32
five episodes by searching for Starwall
1:19:34
Odyssey on your favorite podcast app,
