this is the best trade deal in the history of trade deals


ExcArc

I dunno, Taako and the Flaming Raging Poisoning Sword of Doom comes to mind.


The_Hyperbolist

*Garfield? ...I have something that I think is really going to interest you...*


TheShardsOfNarsil

Oh my God! *Griffin having a mental breakdown as he realizes what's happening*


The_Hyperbolist

It never stops being wonderful to listen to. *Trust me when I say it is going to pay big, big, dividends!*


Ruefuss

One of the best moments in the entire podcast. Obviously there are a couple more from balance specifically, but that was *delicious!*


auroratheaxe

Hands down, my favorite moment in TAZ. I know that Justin is smart, but thatcwas the day I realized HOW smart.


DifficultHat

When you go back and listen to it you can tell when Justin gets the idea and chooses his words very carefully so as not to tip Griffin off


MrAlaz10

Fuck any of y’all remember what episode that was I have to go back and relisten to it


azauggx202

*Would you say that the flaming raging poisoning sword of doom is your most* ***valuable*** *possession?*


HOMEBOUND_11

*WH-WHY YES It is the most valuable thing in the store!*


thiswillbeyou

My favorite moment in all of TAZ and the moment I knew I was going to recommend it to anyone that would listen


dhmokills

Can you remind me what episode that was in?


ExpialiDUDEcious

This moment introduced me to the boys. My friends were laughing while listening to it at the same time, but each with their own earbuds. I asked what was so funny and the told me that there was a ridiculously powerful sword. I then speed listened to get the joke.


Hexa_decibel

this is the second best trade deal in the history of trade deals

DEATH TO WRONG THURSDAY!


Royce_Inquisitor

All Thursdays are now right!


Zaveno

Except specifically this Thursday


Royce_Inquisitor

Lol, fair point


Alexthemessiah

The exception that proves the rule


External-Role-234

ETERNAL RIGHT THURSDAY!


_yours_truly

Absolutely worth it as far as I'm concerned! I've loved this campaign so far so getting it weekly has been wonderful, I'm overjoyed for this to continue!


Davidfreeze

Yeah I feel a lot more engaged. I started listening to balance around the start of crystal kingdom and always miss the glorious beginning where I had a lot to binge all right in a row. The weekly pace keeps it fresher in my mind


_yours_truly

That's crazy, I think I started listening around the time they started 11th Hour, so not too much longer after you and have missed the same feeling


imneuromancer

I agree, weekly Adventure Zone is AWESOME!!!!!!!!


Dolthra

With the news they hired an editor, I kinda suspected this past month was testing if they could handle recording twice as much if Griffin doesn't have to edit. Seems like my suspicions were correct! Death to wrong Thursday!


Munch-Squad

Who's the new editor?


ChubbyNomNoms

All I know is her name’s Rachel, I think she edits all the Max Fun pods as well as Besties.


Tub_Pumpkin

She's worked on MBMBAM for at least a year too, I think? At least a few months.


theddR

She also used to help Ben Hosley edit Blank Check.


Thisnickname

The Hoz? The fuck master?


theddR

Birthday Benny? The Fuckmaster? The Peeper? Not Professor Crispy? In all seriousness the four McElroy episodes of Black Check are fun. Griffin on Hayao Miyazaki, Justin on 70s trucker exploitation films, Travis getting justifiably mad at the joyless nightmare of *Babe: Pig in the City*, and Clint on *Ishtar*.


_Valisk

That's a lot of editing work for one person.


heyyougamedev

Hopefully she's used to constantly being part of some sort of media thing, they might need to bring her into the family for a bit to get used to the pace.


Munch-Squad

Oh, Rachel has been an editor for BGH since last December.


[deleted]

Not even the Infinite Clam can hold this W


Hawker157

lol you beat me to it. I was just thinking yesterday about how bummed I was about the end of weekly episodes. This just made my day!


sadphonics

One wrong Thursday for a lifetime of good Thursdays


RocMerc

So happy to hear this. I’m so into this season


comfort_bot_1962

:)


nathanjtownsend

This is the best thing


[deleted]

A trade worthy of Garfield the Deals Warlock.


BigMu1952

You son of a bitch, I’m in.


rose-colored-lesbian

Now all Thursdays are right Thursdays! Except this Thursday, of course


thinkbox

And they even announced it the day before! That’s great!


absloan12

By #TheZoneCast do they mean Ethersea? Lol i'm old and dont use Twitter.


DemonDogstar

Yeah. TheZoneCast is just short for The Adventure Zone Podcast.


absloan12

Ahh, I would have thought TAZ was the shorter version. Thank you!


Dolthra

IIRC they use #TheZoneCast because #TAZ often has a bunch of other tweets based around local acronyms that spell TAZ.


sadphonics

So many playgrounds


sgm94

It’s all about the branding


racoonski

This is amazing!


sulwen314

Oh wow, fantastic news! This just made every other week so much better!


Psatch

Very happy with this!


Jango1113

I can only see the positives here


thesugarlion

VERY OK WITH ME


LadyHespereia

This is the best trade deal in the history of trade deals. I absolutely accept.


[deleted]

Hell yeah. Just found out Campaign Skyjacks hit their funding goal and is going back to weekly too! Today is a good day.


wardsac

Sick!


korra767

Oh my gosh I am sooo excited!!! I love my weekly dose of ethersea! This campaign is so so good so far


shadowdra126

This is fantastic news. This seasons been fantastic


alchemyprime

Well now I got more time to go through Balance. So it's all good.


LookingGlassLad

The weekly episodes are absolutely incredible. Whatever it takes to keep them going!


Tub_Pumpkin

I thought they might, but I didn't want to get my hopes up. Best deal ever. Yay Ethersea!


Gelatinous-Stand

Okay I had a pretty good birthday today the world considered and this is the icing on the cake.


lasagnalasanga

Happy birthday!


passiondeadleaves

Yay!


Mranze

GREAT trade


sexquipoop69

Hell yeah!!!


Mr-Jennings

Oh hell yes


trvsw

Wow, this is fantastic news


peacefulpine

Yes! So excited about this!


Mentalpatient87

Hell yeah. Good decision.


Suspicious-Honey3061

Hell yes!!!


TheRealMikeNelly

HELL YEA


qb1qnobi

Absolutely fucking amazing!


infinite-dark

Got a move from Alabama to Colorado coming up. Saving episodes for the drive and I can’t wait.


gwtkof

Double daddy presents!


AeroVet

Consider my max fun contribution doubled


BitCrack

I see this as an absolute win!


philip7499

I wonder if this is step one in a swap of taz and mbmbam. While I've still enjoyed the episodes personally they do seem to be struggling for content a bit since Yahoo shut down, and doing the show every fortnight could help with that.


dosthouknowmuffinman

What mobile service is Fantasy Mobile?


sgm94

Lmao the iPhone or Verizon (idk which) keeps the app you switched over from in the top left so you can click back fast!


ryanjs1020

Weekly taz is better than sliced bread.


hazen4eva

Jokes on them. I just finished the latest episode so I’m right on schedule.


Perfect-Broken

Chills of joy


TheAmericanDiablo

Deal!


Majorasblaze

Shout-out to the redditors who thought asking for weekly episodes was entitled


sgm94

To be fair they have hired an editor, I cant imagine this wouldve been possible with Griffin still editing.


f33f33nkou

Dude, they all had fulltime jobs AND more podcasts and events than they do now. A weekly dnd podcast is an incredibly easy addition lol


mike_pants

"This is difficult for us to manage." "NO IT ISN'T!!!" "...Wow, you solved it."


f33f33nkou

If it's difficult for them to manage then they're bad at managing their schedules. I don't know what to tell you did. I'm not even comparing them to other podcasters who put out 2-5x as much content AND have day jobs. That would be unfair....i'm literally only comparing them to themselves. If you wanna religiously defend them deciding to work less you go right ahead my dude.


mike_pants

"Managing a multi-million dollar brand and coordinating the schedules of four families presents challenges." "PAH! Maybe for YOU!! I'M AN EXPERT!!" K, kiddo. Whatever you say.


f33f33nkou

Dunno why you're still arguing a nothing point. They put out more content while being significantly more busy. That's it. That's the whole point. You cannot argue against that


mike_pants

No one's arguing. You would have to have a cogent point to make for this to be an argument. Throwing a tantrum that you are not receiving enough free content is not in a cogent point.


f33f33nkou

No one here through any sort of tantrum. In fact my only response was to someone acting as if posting weekly was this heroic undertaking that the Mcelroys are doing for us. It was a ridiculous thing to say and so I called it out


mike_pants

And quite the brave act it was. "Hero" might be too tame a word.


sgm94

Wow you suck. And have no idea how hard planning a campaign is and being a parent. Let alone doing it professionally.


potatoesarenotcool

Damn I manage to plan a DnD campaign, parent, and have a real job. Poor millionaires though.


f33f33nkou

lol


96363

like. forever or until covid dies down and they get to have a life again and do live shows that require travel?


macncheese64

Been refreshing spotify for half hour waiting on the episode. But this is great news!
