it looks like you have to email them to cancel, which is annoying, but they have the past years up on the feed so there's that

That’s diabolical, they know no McElroy listener is going to be able to do that

Listening to TAZ Elementary now, can I just say my favourite thing about Justin McElroy is that his smiling is audible in his voice.

By the way, I've heard Americans poo poo on it before, but Robert Downey Jr's English accent is actually good.

I listened to it, and it's easily worth $5. Now I have TAZ knights to work through, and I forgot that dead pilots' society was a thing so I have that to look forward to too.

Well Elementary was pretty bad, but going into the backlog both the origin story and the beach adventure were some proper Tres Horny Boys business.

Moonshine is my favorite just because I love mushrooms, druids, and elves that aren't Lord of the Rings style perfect demigods in the beautiful forest.

Paw-Paw is also a strong factor in that tho.

What's the elevator pitch for this one? I'm nearing the end of Dragon Friends and wouldn't mind another D&D podcast to fill the void, but on a scale of Dragon Friends (funny, stupid) to Critical Role (smart storytelling, but not trying to be funny) where does it sit?

It's early taz. D&D and dick jokes. Good production quality. A couple of experienced players and a novice. Jokes and story are equally important. The hosts all have other projects that you might have heard of. Jake is from Jake and Amir, Caldwell is from Drawfee, Emily Axford is from Adam Ruins Everything.

the mind palace conclusion alone would be enough to land it in top 5 mcelroy episodes easily, the rest of the episode pushes it to borth sampson levels and beyond

The only way you could possibly think Elementary was bad is if you're the kind of McElroy fan that only loves TAZ and hates MBMBAM.

It's kind of like a blend of Dragon Friends and early TAZ, really. It's very funny but not the same kind of aggressively funny Dragon Friends can be? So far no one's antagonized the DM. Everyone's just laughing at the dumb things they wind up talking about or their goofy joke ideas like trying to draw out a monster by imitating its mating call.

I was hoping they'd do TAZ KNights for the 2nd season. I always felt like that had a lot of mileage but they ended up doing it like twice a year max and then dropped it entirely.

Out of the mini-arcs though, I did feel Amnesty had way more potential for a fleshed out universe, with the whole world beyond the portals that they barely dipped a toe into. Also that Griffin is the best suited for a GM so he makes more sense for a long-term project. I don't mind Travis's character for the most part, but I swear if this means 2 years of Travis vehemently insisting everyone call his rabbit by his full name boy howdy am I gonna complain on the internet.
