Yeah, he's understated, but he plays stupid very smart. I love the way he says "huh??" in that very particular way when he's baffled by a simple thing, as well as the bit where he was sure that Cordelia had a crush on him. I only have 10 or so episodes left before I'm caught up, and I think I only started listening like two weeks ago. I promised myself I wasn't going to spend $10/mo on the patreon, but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna break that as soon as I run out of free episodes, this show is really funny. Branson has such a gift of language, he reminds of Douglas Adams at times. And then there are lines like "you see a little man with a lovely face that sucks" that also ruin me

Just reading your post I could hear Bellow saying "huh?" I also totally agree with the Douglas Adams comparison, they both have/had a particular way with language.

That feels like a riff on Douglas Adams to me - "the ships hung in the air in the exact way that rocks don't" - but it works so well with the Rude Tales style. My favourite Branson-ism is when he's in full flow and says something that doesn't quite make sense then yells SHUT UP, mostly because I wish I'd had the confidence to do that when I was a DM Lot of good "turn to the players and also the audience and say gently caress off" moments in this latest episode, on that note Also now that I've had a chance to listen to it the first patreon episode of Stars of Space is way better than the pilot, lots of big laughs. I realise they were doing a bit of a TNG homage with their Q equivalent in the first episode but the problem with that is that Farpoint loving sucks as a pilot. I'm pretty confident that as everyone relaxes into the show there'll be a lot of good stuff ahead. I like Joe a lot as a GM and how he uses the Lasers and Feelings system, and it's good to hear more of Taylor e: I took too long writing this post and was beaten to the Douglas Adams reference, I won't forget this Ainsley!

I see episode 3 of Stars of Space is up. The episodes they’re airing on Patreon are not early access and are going to stay there for the foreseeable future I guess. They said they want to make episodes as self-contained as possible to replicate the experience of being able to jump in on any episode of a tv show, but I still wonder if I should subscribe to the Patreon before I listen to episode 3.

This last episode did have a small crossover with characters, but it's not like it's serious canon where you have to know everything about what's going on. It's just fun to hear one of them have to voice a second character on the radio or something like that. It would have worked just as well with a random NPC that got made up on the spot so you wouldn't have missed anything.

I'm up to the halfway point for this week's episode, it feels like The players were being railroaded, but they would stop every few minutes to ask the DM if they should be railroaded differently. Edit: Branson, you had the Rat King attack Stir Fry. Of course he would commit regicide and of course he would want to keep the rats.

It only just occurred to me that Catholicism and The Pope are in cannon for Rude Tales’s world, so the usage of Black and Tans in the recent episodes has some implications.

Hot Roddy is back! And he's fully embarrassed his destiny as a cool uncle! Also Stirfry is King of the rats! Cordelia's speech to Virginia was so sweet and gay, I love all of these characters and just want them to happy and healthy together.

Branson: THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT DUDE Carly: Stirfry looks up at Branson? Tim: Wait, what is the usable take? Branson: ONE WHERE YOU DON'T TALK TO THE loving DM

I am enjoying the trend of tim's characters stumbling into positions of status. hopefully it works out better for stirfry than it did for smellulus (although it must be said that smellulus really did deserve to die)

The Honey Heist episode was truly amazing. Like Taylor said, even if you only sub for a month and just listen to everything and leave, the Honey Heist by Tim is worth it.
