Sorry, but as much as I like listening to D&D, that was hilarious.

But yeah, they need to start it earlier at some point so Dan isn't blackout drunk during D&D.

Like if you talking to your stockbroker and asked him if he was looking after your best interests and he replied "if I wanted to steal your money I would have done it already," you would close your account immediately.

Is the stockbroker a monster?!

Whether he got it or not, it was funnier for him to keep going with it, especially when Spencer had the NPC turn it around so Dan could "catch" him.

......it's LINEVE!!!!


This episode was ironic with Dan saying they stopped editing the episodes so they could put them out there at a reliable schedule, then realize after Alie & Georgia came up that their whole conversation was a wash.

Sounded like classic Sharpie, to me.

It was awesome to hear Jeff use "sense motive," though. He's come so far!

All the feral audio cross-promotions have been terrible. Then again, I don't like podcasts in general, so maybe its just me.

They're not all bad, but chances are the good ones are with people knew Jeff and Dan from before. Putting people on who don't really know them makes it a jumbled mess.

I think Spencer made it funny by having Lineve get annoyed with it. I think Spencer and Jeff save a looooooot of stuff on this show from getting awkward.

I notice a big dip in quality every time Jeff isn't on. Especially when Dan and Erin spend the whole episode arguing.

Spencer seems to deal with Dan a lot so he must be used to him. Hell, he rode across the country on a bus with him.

I almost feel like Dan is pulling a prank on Jeff when it comes to D&D. Every week he ruins it in some way.

I feel as though ever since they started their home game, the need to play at Harmontown has been strongly diminished.

Honestly, for my D&D I've switched over to Drunks and Dragons.

Nerd Poker is decent. There's enough there to make up for the (expected) dick jokes, and the group definitely has a rhythm down.

I've only started listening to Harmontown, but Spencer saves the show during D&D. He is also insanely accommodating. The rest is funny, but nothing exceptional. I find myself more invested when they actually stick to the New Harmon Order theme.

Ninety-one? There are ninety other "Tiger Drivers"? Do any involve actual tigers, or driving?
I'm listening from the beginning. Are there any other D&D guest appearances as great as Tylenol /w Codeine? Proops is the best.

Once Kumail becomes more regular after the tour he contributes pretty well to the game.

For my money Jason Sudeikis is the overall best guest they've had, although Mitch Hurwitz is up there.

One Road. Two Friends. One Ass.
I understand why people like the DnD portions, but I absolutely listen to hear a man over think himself into oblivion. It's undoubtedly because I had a similar relationship, but so many aspects of the Dan and Erin relationship are fascinating and horrifying.

The only thing I enjoy about DnD is Spencer, and to be fair that's enough. His handling of that whole group is hilarious.

According to twitter, Mitch Hurwitz is comptrolling the next harmontown, so that should be pretty good.

Brody Stevens made me want to fill my ears with cement, Duncan Trussel to me is only tolerable on Harmontown, James Urbaniak was underutilized, Christopher Ryan was loving fascinating, Steve Agee doesn't talk much in general, and Johnny Pemberton was loving terrible. Outside of Urbaniak and Harmon, I probably wouldn't listen to anything on feral audio, anyway.

Todd Barry might be good on Harmontown...

That might be the funniest D&D they've ever done. Schrab needs to be a permanent member of that segment, I was crying with laughter every time it was his turn.

For me the funniest D&D segment would either have to be when Dan got stomped on and killed for being an rear end in a top hat to the frost giant leader (even though it has Erin insufferably trying to convince the party to put on a show, much to Jeff's annoyance) or the episode the next week when Erin isn't there and they decide to put on the biggest spectacle of a show they can think of to spite Erin.

Dan gives so few shits about football, he may not have even gone to a super bowl party unless someone tricked him into going, as JD Ryznar did in this video.
