Starting point is 00:00:00 Dungeons and Daddies is a rowdy, horny, violent podcast for grown-ups. Content warnings can be found in the episode description. Another boring day at the Black Mesa Research Facility. Nick Poodoo scratched what was left of his hair and turned on his favorite podcast, Dungeons and Daddies. Mr. Poodoo. The gaunt-faced G-Man who was Nick's boss said, You better not be listening to podcasts on company time. Of course not.
Starting point is 00:00:27 Nick said, quickly typing into his spreadsheet. Unbeknownst to the G-Man, Nick was actually typing out what would become his masterpiece, a Dungeons and Daddies fanfic. In it, the four dads and Glenn entered Book Castle, the lair of Well Actually. There, they met up with Mark Likely and successfully defeated Well Actually, using a magic spell to, they met up with Mark Likely and successfully defeated Well
Starting point is 00:00:45 Actually, using a magic spell to turn him back into Scam Likely. Unfortunately for them, as Mark and Scam jumped through a portal, Scam cast a spell that caused all the dad's bodies to switch with their souls so everybody's all jibbity bibbity. To be continued! Okay, so this is my first fic, so please be nice and don't forget to comment if you want to see more. You can find my account at fanfiction.net slash likely scams. There is a lot of slash, so be warned! Welcome to Dungeons and Daddies, not a BDSM podcast, a spooky body swap podcast where we play Dungeons and Dragons. This show is about four dads from our world flung into a realm of high fantasy and magic in a quest to rescue their lost sons. And this episode's a little bit different.
Starting point is 00:01:42 I'm going to let Anthony take over from here on out to explain what's going to go on. Whoa, who's Anthony? Well, first of all, I'm your dad. Second of all, the previous episode that we had ended with everyone undergoing a sort of body swap spell. So every character is now in another character's body. And the way that we are going to convey that to you, our beloved audience, I'm so nervous, is that every performer is still going to be performing the same body, but not the same soul. So for example, whoever's in Daryl's body is going to be played by Matt. So essentially every actor on this show is going to get to, for the first time, role play a character that is not their assigned daddy. So Matt will not be playing Daryl, but he will be playing somebody who is in Daryl's body.
Starting point is 00:02:26 Somebody else is going to be in control of my beautiful boy, Daryl. They're just going to make all the decisions for Daryl. Exactly, and vice versa. So don't be dick. Don't divorce Carol. Don't immediately try to throw your character off the fucking cliff.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Or immediately talk about how big your dong is or smaller than your normal size dong. You're right, this is a standoff. We can all just hurt each other. This is wonderful because I still get to play like Ron Sampler as a canonically five feet, four inches tall and 120 pounds with 20 of those pounds being a dick. I'm excited because you guys get to help build my character because no one, I mean, clearly I need the help.
Starting point is 00:03:03 That's true. We can really lay in some factoids here what a self-owned just give me some extra stuff so none of us have prepared dad facts so we're going into this fresh I've prepared five dad facts I cheated overachiever you fucking
Starting point is 00:03:17 took notes in his good handwriting turned in the homework valedictorian over here you can hear the rest of them on talking dads where I will reveal the other dad facts. Fantastic. That's going to be on our Patreon.
Starting point is 00:03:28 Here we go. Let's go. Let's go. So I rolled some die and I randomly assigned souls to each of the bodies. As Death Cab for Cutie says, soul meets body.
Starting point is 00:03:37 One last question. Are we human or are we dancer? Also, if someone is in my body, do they still be my character as a paladin or are they like if Henry's in my body, is it a druid? Yeah, are we sw? Also, if someone is in my body, do they still be my character as a paladin? Or are they like,
Starting point is 00:03:46 if Henry's in my body, is it a druid? Yeah, are we swapping character sheets? We swap character sheets is how we're playing this. Yes, you swap character sheets. One last question. If it started out like a kiss,
Starting point is 00:03:55 how did it end up like this? Fuck, Will. God damn it. Will, you know that was my thing. Hey, I have already body swapped. I'm Beth May and the body of Will Campos making that joke.
Starting point is 00:04:05 This is the worst episode. My name is Freddie Wong and I play, you play Jodie Foster in Glenn's body. Are you kidding me? You gotta be kidding me. I play Jodie Foster. I'm a lawfully good paladin, highway cop turned dad.
Starting point is 00:04:22 I don't even know your intro, Jimmy. I'm sorry. Good diction. I just read Jodie as a lot of diction. A little fun fact about Jody. Jody likes to do yoga. You know how in yoga, they're like,
Starting point is 00:04:31 you got to make sure your posture's straight? The instructor has never said that to Jody. Jody's posture has been perfect. A fucking balloon. A balloon has been coming out the back of his head towards the sky since the day he was fucking born. That's amazing because it's both very much obviously something a Jody fact, but also has the like arrogance.
Starting point is 00:04:51 I'm so cool of a Glenn fact. Like we got a combination. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, everybody. My name is Matt Arnold and I just got my second dose. So I'm a pretty I'm already kind of losing myself in this body in the first place. But let's see. Second dose of a vaccine.
Starting point is 00:05:04 Let's see who I play. Who do I play, Anthony? We'll see if you do better as Henry Oak in this body in the first place. But let's see. Second dose of a vaccine. Let's see who I play. Who do I play, Anthony? We'll see if you do better as Henry Oak in Daryl Wilson's body. Yes. Hey, everybody. It's Henry Oak. Crunchy, munchy granola. Stuffing, loving.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Birkenstocks wearing. Super cool. Drew it, Dad. Nailed it. Nailed it. He's so good. A little quick fact about Henry here. So, look.
Starting point is 00:05:22 I mean, we had a minivan, and everybody's got their own car, but I just want to talk about what Henry's favorite car. It's walking. Nice. That was a good one. Just a good little walk. So that's what that feels like. Holy shit.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Just intro this episode. Fuck the rest of the shit. Hi, I'm Beth May and I play... Daryl Wilson. Yes! Yes! This is my dream blunt rotation. This is my dream dad rotation.

Felicia. Absolute perfection.
Starting point is 00:06:30 The love that Beth clearly has for Daryl Wilson just comes right through. The reams upon reams of headcanon that were already ready just right in the holster. Love it. Hey, everyone. I'm Will Campos and I play... You were playing Ron Stampler inside the body of Henry O. Yes!
Starting point is 00:06:45 All right. and I play... You are playing Ron Stampler inside the body of Henry O. Yes! Yes! All right. I'm Will Campos and I play Ron Stampler. After a great start already. Incredible. Ron Stampler is an emotionally detached stepfather and rogue.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Fun fact about Ron this week. Ron is fluent in Spanish. Fuck off. Here's the catch. So Ron, as a little kid, he stayed at home a lot. He watched a lot of Spanish telenovelas. And that's how he learned Spanish.
Starting point is 00:07:15 However, he thinks that Spanish is a fictional language like Elvish that they only speak on telenovelas. That's really good. Brilliant. Really fucking good. That's good good. Brilliant. Really fucking good. That's good. Hi, everyone.
Starting point is 00:07:27 My name is Jimmy Wong, and I play the character of Glenn Close, the good friend of the Daddlers. You sound like a fucking square. Can you, like, fucking crank it up a little bit, dude? Okay, here we go. Are you ready? Swagger a little bit.

Starting point is 00:08:43 and let's just take quick 20 seconds to just get familiar with it. Right? Yeah. Longer than you've ever gotten familiar with your own character sheet when you were controlling it. Yay. Oh, so very true. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:52 I'm like loading up a fricking Ferrari here. I got like 40 spells. Hey Matt, I counted all the change in the change drawer. That character sheet better be just as nice as the way I left it when I come back. While you're looking at your character sheets, I will very briefly summarize. And while we ground ourselves in our new characters and new realities. No, no, no, no, hold on, Freddie. You're not allowed to be like that anymore.
Starting point is 00:09:09 Okay, while we ground ourselves in our characters, I want everyone to just familiarize yourself, especially because I don't want to get any tweets or any Reddit threads about any of the crap that we've done wrong this time. I don't complain about tweets and Reddit threads. That's the last thing I care about. I'm not complaining. I'm just saying I read
Starting point is 00:09:24 every single thing because I make this fucking podcast i absolutely do not i could give a shit about what people say about my great podcast you're sounding very much like freddy and jimmy being freddy and jimmy right now let's get in the fucking character yeah get the character dude come on method on this shit i had some professionalism jimmy's sounding like freddy freddy you gotta get some of that jimmy energy yeah you gotta be nicer freddy i'm so sorry yeah you have to just deal with all this abuse and smile through it.

Starting point is 00:09:56 I'm looking at Daryl Wilson's character sheet right now, and I thought, you know, maybe like, oh, if I click on another person's character sheet, maybe the game will make sense to me and I will be good at it. So far. Did it help? Yes, that's completely true. I'm going to fucking wreck your world.
Starting point is 00:10:11 Oh, shit. All right. I clicked on Beth's sheet and for some reason, I shit you not, she has disadvantage in four different skills. Including stealth. I don't know if that's possible. While you're getting into character, I'm going to briefly summarize what happened last time. So you successfully exercised the specter of, well, actually from Scam Likely.
Starting point is 00:10:32 Well, actually disappeared with his sister brother, Mark Likely, but in his final moment before he disappeared, seemingly cast some sort of spell to swap all of your souls between all of your bodies. And so you just look down and realize that you were all in not your original bodies. The massive Goliath, chesty, very aggressive body
Starting point is 00:10:53 that Daryl previously had begins to shrink back down to its normal proportions as if rejecting the confusion of the body swap episode that is about to happen. It would just be too confusing. It would just be too confusing. And it returns back to what it was. Man, two beautiful bodies experienced in a second.
Starting point is 00:11:08 I have range, but not that much range. Oh my gosh. What the? What? I mean, who's in my body? Oh, gross. I feel awful. Ron, by the way, is just staring awestruck at his pants,
Starting point is 00:11:22 which are still on. Actually, as you do that, as you stare at what used to be Henry's pants. Oh no! The pants that are on Henry's body immolate instantly. They set on fire. Henry's body feels no pain, but the pants are immediately on fire.
Starting point is 00:11:35 Henry, stop, drop, and roll. Stop, drop, and roll. Oh my gosh. Ron, are you in my body? Who said that? That's me. That's Henry. Oh my gosh. Mercedes got me those pants like 15 years ago i've never washed them once because they still smell like her i can't believe they're gone what kind of loser is it oh unbelievable jody glenn you hey okay everybody stay still good idea is that daryl i can just tell by the masculine energy that's probably daryl over there okay so ron's body aka daryl goes up to
Starting point is 00:12:07 daryl's but hey i'm daryl wilson nice to meet you i put my hand out yes henry we've met hey hey ron daryl we'll get used to this i guess and i shake ron daryl's hand oh boy suddenly a door behind you kicks open and two childlike figures walk in. Children, I evoke rage. You see little Nicholas and Nicholas goes, uh, I feel like I want to stab somebody and I feel like I'm way stronger and I feel like that's badass, that's cool. And Hayden goes, something, I've, uh,
Starting point is 00:12:36 he's in my body, I don't, uh, what happened? Nicholas, which one are you? I guess that's me. I guess I'm, oh, wait, why am I covered in scars? Why am I so small? And Nicholas looks at Hayden and goes like, hey, don't go and solve that body.
Starting point is 00:12:50 That body is 100% pure, pristine muscle as far as the eye can see. You won't even piss again. Why is everyone being so weird? And why did I get taller? And why are my legs blonde? I don't, I'm a little confused. Dads plus Glenn, we need to focus up right now.
Starting point is 00:13:05 And I believe that we need to establish a communication regimen here so that we don't get confused. I love communication. That's great. These rules are so dumb. Let's just look at each other, raise your hand, say your name, and just remember it. Glenn, I don't appreciate you undermining my authority like that. I believe we've set a clear path forward and a rigid structure which will allow us to have discipline in our communication. It would just make me and my son, Nicholas, who looks like Peyton, a little bit more comfortable here if we establish some ground rules with how we are to communicate with each other as we are trying to figure out this situation. Wait, so Glenn is my dad now? Which one is my daddy? Nicholas, there's been a
Starting point is 00:13:47 soul swap scenario. I am your dad. I might look like that degenerate slacker stoner, but I am your dad. Nicholas, your dad looks really cool, but he's still really stupid, so don't worry about it. He's still your boring square dad. Okay, so that one's wrong. Okay. Nicholas, you should have respect for your elders. Let's set a couple of ground rules. First off, I'd like my weapons back. And I walk over to Jody and Glenn's body,
Starting point is 00:14:14 and I grab the gun as well as the Peyton Chucks. Oh, we're fighting over this. Do opposed strength checks. Strength check? Did somebody say strength check? i'm daryl wilson i stick out my hand okay opposed strength opposed strength yes please 17 plus 3 oh i rolled an 11 plus 1 so that's a 12 so glenn's body retains the gun and jody's like you know what no this is exactly where it needs to be i having had extensive firearms and small arms training i think i should be the one in charge of this right now in fact you know what maybe not
Starting point is 00:14:48 everything is bad there looks like something's turned out a-okay what's bad being in this weak body of yours good lord as you're saying this nicholas walks up to glenn's body and looks you dead in the eye and goes you're big old baby you suck now Now, Nicholas, as I was saying, let's have respect for your elders. And I stick out my hand, but in a scolding fashion with a pointer finger. Tis, tis. Wait, hold on. Is this Payden in there? It's Payden in there.
Starting point is 00:15:18 No, it's me, Nicholas, your son. Payden. The one who sucks. Payden, we know it's you, buddy. No, you don't. Okay. You know this is Nicholas. I, Nicholas, your son. Hayden. The one who sucks. Hayden, we know it's you, buddy. No, you don't. Okay. You know this is Nicholas. I, Nicholas, the narc.
Starting point is 00:15:29 Daryl Wilson, get a hold of your son. Oh, oh yes. Or your father. Oh, sorry. When I was scolding you, I was scolding your soul and not your personhood because you share a soul with my father there and I'm going to get him out and we're going to have a good old time. Anyway, Hayden, I love love you I love you too daddy
Starting point is 00:15:47 I agree with Daryl let's not argue especially with a gun amongst all the children let's just stay calm and um usually when I have a problem I look into myself and right now I can actually see myself so I'm gonna look at me
Starting point is 00:16:03 Matt you are so good at this yeah you really are and i've spent a lot of fucking time together me what what do you think we should do hey daryl uh so i think that we should um you know who are you talking are you talking to i'm henry okay so with samantha when she does therapy with people they do like what's called role play sometimes. And that means that, you know, you pretend to be somebody else. Like, you know, you pretend to be a good husband as opposed to being a bad husband. Role play? What's that? Some sort of sex thing?
Starting point is 00:16:34 It is, Daryl. It is often also a sex thing, which can also be very therapeutic. So maybe what we should do just to keep everyone from getting confused is like, I'll just pretend to be Henry and you just pretend to be Daryl and then we just we can all just pretend to be the body we're in and it'll be less confusing. Far out stuff. I'll just be like hey guys it's me Henry I like nature and rocks
Starting point is 00:16:58 it's really cool you know so maybe we should all get along. I can do this I can do this I'm a square and I don't deserve to be my son's father. How's that? How's that sound? Oh, are we doing this now? That's a good exercise.
Starting point is 00:17:10 Hey, everybody. I'm Daryl Wilson and I'm tough on the outside, but deep down I could, you know, I just want to be loved and people do love me. I should remember that. And I look at Daryl Wilson's body. Immediately, Nicholas gets really confused looking. He's like, again, which one is Daryl? Which one is my dad's son?
Starting point is 00:17:26 You point at Ron. They all say, yes. Yes. I point to Ron's body. I say, I think Daryl's in there. Hi, I'm Daryl. I put my hand out. Nicholas immediately climbs on top of Ron
Starting point is 00:17:39 and like hugs him like from behind like a backpack, just his arms around the neck and legs around his torso and just sort of stays there like a little human backpack. Aw. Hold on, is Ron's body genuinely strong enough to support Nicholas's body? Ron has very strong legs. Yeah, Ron's legs are incredible.
Starting point is 00:17:53 And this would be a lot of legs, right? Yeah, quads of steel. Okay. Nicholas is basically the same height or taller than Ron, so it looks interesting, but more of you are going to do impressions of yourself as somebody else, so please do that. Hey, if I'm as long as I'm impersonating Henry,
Starting point is 00:18:07 maybe the two of you could roleplay being like guys who aren't so fucking annoying. Oh, my God. Yeah, well, hi, everyone. It's me. I'm a big degenerate rock star who can only play bad Christmas songs. And I just hang around with children at a soccer game, even though I don't have a kid because I'm a big loser and I'm Glenn Close. Let's try to keep this positive. How do you like that now?
Starting point is 00:18:38 Hey, everyone. I'm Jodie Foster, the biggest fuckwad this planet's ever seen. Wow. Isn't it cool to be the lamest dude in the entire room? The kind of person that when he enters a party, the band literally stops playing because they see a narc? I look at Nicholas Payton and I go, Nicholas, don't listen to him. I'm so confused right now. And Payton, for the first time ever, begins to cry.
Starting point is 00:19:01 Jodie, looking like Glenn, goes over and hugs Peyton, who is actually his son Nicholas. And he hugs you back, and it's very sweet. It's okay, let it out. Let it out. This is so wrong. Well, I think that we should just keep doing impersonations of ourselves in the other body while we're at it, but we should do it in a more positive light.
Starting point is 00:19:20 Like, hi, I'm Ron, and I do some weird stuff a lot but that's you know that's who he is i mean that's who i am and that's that's valid too that was nice daryl did ron go back am i who am i are you ron again who am i no that's daryl no it's me daryl and i stick my hand out rick and morty ain't got shit shake daryl's hand very cautiously and I say, I don't trust you, Ron. Look, guys, I've been on a lot of bad trips before and this one definitely tops the cake. So I suggest we find a way out of this
Starting point is 00:19:51 conundrum. Makes sense, right, Peyton? A drug user? God, he's such a piece of shit. He's just really just a real piece of doo-doo. I should have asked for permission to say shit. I'm sorry, Father. That's right, son. You should. You can swear if you want, Nick. So what's the way out of this? What's the one weird thing that we can
Starting point is 00:20:08 do that just gets us out of here? As you say that, you hear an explosion from the direction that you initially entered Book Castle from, from that drawbridge. And then you hear the sounds of many footsteps rushing towards your location. What are you going to do before they get here? I invoke rage.
Starting point is 00:20:25 Oh, crap. They're breaching. They're breaching. We need to form a perimeter. Get back. Get away from the door. If they have explosive charges, they're going to blow through that door.
Starting point is 00:20:32 We need to stay clear of the door. You're the only one with explosive charges, you narc. You almost took out our hearing and our vision. Well, then you'll know exactly what this will be like. Everyone, take cover and hide. We don't need to listen to this narc. What we need to do is get up there and actually confront these people.
Starting point is 00:20:43 There's nothing that we can't stop, except I don't know now that i'm in this pussy body of mine hey i work on that body i work on that body your posture is terrible your entire left side of your body's out of whack this is ridiculous oh yeah explain this and i lift up my shirt to reveal a eight pack abs dad gut dad gut that Jody's just been holding nice and tight since day one. But there's a real gut there. Whoa. That's so good.
Starting point is 00:21:11 Whoa. Hey, put my shirt down. Put my shirt down, Glenn. That's me. You put your shirt down. You put your shirt down, loser. Glenn's body, you feel a little as a rat appears on your shoulder. Nicholas Jr.
Starting point is 00:21:21 And it opens its mouth and goes, ca-caw. And as you look up into the rafters, there is a bird swirling around that's going, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak.
Starting point is 00:21:30 Oh! The rat and the bird switch bodies, Anthony. It lands on Jody's shoulder and just sort of stays there as this hawk on Jody's shoulder. And crushes Jody to death.
Starting point is 00:21:40 Nick Jr.? Is that you? Ah! Wait. Squeak, squeak, squeak. Maybe that's our way out of here. Squeak. It says shrugging its wings.
Starting point is 00:21:48 So what are you going to do about the people coming in? Ron has already hidden under a pile of books. Perfect. I've entered rage. You got it. You got it, man. You got it. Perfect 10 for 10 cosplay.
Starting point is 00:21:59 Jody stacks up along the other side of the door and listens for the approaching footsteps to try and discern what's on the other side. I go to Glenn and go, give me my painting chucks. I dig through them like, these pieces of shit. Sure, fine. I toss them over to you. Okay, can I roll to see if they smack me in the nuts?
Starting point is 00:22:13 Uh, yeah. Now you're getting it, Jimmy. Give me a D20. I rolled a nine. It got close, but you saved yourself for the last second. Close call. Okay, so give me a perception roll, Glenn's body. That's 12 plus zero, 12.
Starting point is 00:22:25 Okay. No perception whatsoever. Typical of a fucking cop. So with 12, you could hear... Well, no about that. Daryl, do you have any things you want to say about blue lives and how much they do or don't matter? I've been to a barbecue with a few cops.
Starting point is 00:22:43 I agree with everybody here, but I'm just saying I've been to a good barbecue before with a couple cops. What the fuck? Okay, so with a 12 perception check, you hear five pairs of two feet each. Five?
Starting point is 00:22:58 What the fuck? This is a math problem now? Please don't make this any more confusing. Math? Are you fucking kidding me? Five humanoids. It's Dungeons and Dragons world. It could have been any number of feet. You know that five people are approaching.
Starting point is 00:23:10 They didn't teach me math in Catholic school. Wait, okay, sorry. One more time, Anthony. Five pairs of two feet? You hear five pairs of two feet. You hear five people coming. Okay. Five humanoids. Well, yeah, five humanoids.
Starting point is 00:23:28 I could have just said five people, but I wanted to make it a little bit more tactical because that's what Jody would hear. There might be a giant centipede coming, everybody. Get down. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:23:35 When you hear narc, we got five sets of footsteps here. There's going to be one for each of us. Wait, Glenn, does that mean there's ten people coming or does that mean there's like-
Starting point is 00:23:43 I'm Jody. I'm Jody. I look like Glenn, but I'm Jody. So as you say, I'm Jody, the door busts open, and you take a D6 of damage. I love taking D6s of damage as this motherfucker. But it's your body.
Starting point is 00:23:56 It's still your body. Oh, shit, you're right. Wait, if I see him taking damage, can I put in Spirit Shield and reduce his damage by 3d6? Yeah, you can. You sure can. Wow.
Starting point is 00:24:09 Well, that would completely obliviate all of that damage. Well, you got to roll. I took one damage, so. Oh, you took one damage? Oh, never mind. You got to tough it up, partner. So standing in the now open doorway, you see four blue coats led by the familiar face of Sheriff David Boreanaz. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:24:30 And he goes, all right, where is it? Where's the where's the fucking demon? Where's the shape shifted to change you? The body changed. But where is that? That would be a good thing for us to know, too. Hi, I'm Henry. You probably don't remember me.
Starting point is 00:24:41 I look a little different now because I'm not. I'm hey, everybody get up. It's David Boreanaz. Another narc. I guess that we're all kind of the shapeshifty demons seeing as we've all changed in some way and I'm high.
Starting point is 00:24:52 I'm Daryl Wilson. I put my hand out. Boreanaz squints at all of you, confused, and he goes, wait a second, wait a second. I got to listen to this again. Okay. And then he takes a raven from his backpack
Starting point is 00:25:04 that has like really ruffled feathers that looks like it's been like sort of shoved in there and he presses the raven's belly and a magically pre-recorded message plays aloud and this is what it sounds like. My name is Baz Benhemp Benquin owner of the Benquin Mining Service
Starting point is 00:25:20 at your service. If you've received this raven, you're one dead demon away from earning yourself 500 gold smack-a-woonies. There's a shapeshifting demon trickster thing wandering around the Forgotten Realms being a real killjoy dick, if you know what I mean. I just cast a locator spell, and it's apparently somewhere near Book Castle. If you can bring me the demon head, or shove it into a bottle, or whatever you do to trap demons, you'll get your money's worth.
Starting point is 00:25:48 I'm Baz Benham Benquin, owner of the Benquin Mining Service. How do I turn this raven off? And then he puts the raven back into his pouch, and he goes, so the demon already got you,
Starting point is 00:26:04 but you're the only one. Folks, guys, I think one of them might be the demon. One of who? It's him. And I point at Glenn slash Jodie Foster.
Starting point is 00:26:13 Okay, Glenn slash Jodie Foster. Immediately, if I have a time for a reaction because I'm behind him. You do. I would like to get David Boreanaz in a rear naked choke with my left arm.
Starting point is 00:26:22 So would I. Daryl said that. Daryl just revealed something he had not considered saying aloud. I'd like to try and choke out David Boreanaz from behind. Yes. Give me a, I guess a dexterity roll. Non-lethal choke, Freddie. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:38 I'm going to block the blood coming from his carotid artery into his brain until he blacks out. Holy shit. But I won't kill him. Yeah, I guess we joke about stuff like that, but that's like literally what happens when you joke somebody. I mean, not that I'm like, joke. Okay, well, you know. I'm sorry. Hey-o.
Starting point is 00:26:55 12 plus 2, 14. Okay, so with a 14, Jodi and Glenn's body manages to get an arm around Boreanaz. Left arm, left arm. Left, very strong arm. Wait, you had a 14 you said? Yeah. Oh, well, anything involving Glenn's body's left arm gets a plus one to strength checks. Yes. So only by the fact that Glenn's body is so amazingly toned from being in the meth bay correctional facility, do you barely manage to hook your massive left bicep around the windpipe? like as i'm hooking that like my shirt comes up and you see that glenn's body has a perfect eight pack abs
Starting point is 00:27:29 like sub 10 body fat single digits dude just fucking yoked like the surface of a goddamn leaf that's how vascular glenn is right now okay so that's freddie talking about glenn's body not jody yes how does jody feel about? Jody is quite annoyed because he's like, I was pretty much resigned to having a dad bod, but this is what it's like. This is what peak physical performance feels like. I, as Glenn, look at Jody in Glenn's body and go, that's right, that's fucking right.
Starting point is 00:27:57 So you have Boreanaz in a rear naked chokehold and he's beginning to lose consciousness. The other four guards immediately draw their swords and point them at Jody and Glenn's body and they go let him go Ron is going to cast Thaumaturgy what which is is that the one that lets me throw my voice or whatever
Starting point is 00:28:15 yeah okay oh right right right he's gonna try to throw his voice to echo around the room as if invisible and omnipresent Ron is gonna say hey it's, the demon you're after. I'm hiding. Go ahead and give me a performance roll. I realize I'm kind of doing like an Owen Wilson.
Starting point is 00:28:36 I'm like half a shade away from him. So am I. All Ron is is an Owen Wilson impression. So Ron got a nine. Okay. In true Ron fashion. That checks out. That checks out.
Starting point is 00:28:47 So hearing that, David Boreanaz, with his last conscious breath, goes, it's Henry. It's Henry. And he goes unconscious because he's heard
Starting point is 00:28:55 Henry's voice before. And so immediately the four other guards. No, it's Ron. Shit. Roll stealth with disadvantage. That's super good. I got a 21.
Starting point is 00:29:09 A 21 with disadvantage? Ron's got a plus 11 to stealth, dude. Holy shit. So the four other guards spread out, and one of them looks at Daryl and Ron's body, who seem to command the most authority, and goes... Wait, wait, wait.
Starting point is 00:29:23 I feel like Jody, who just choked out their boss, had the most authority there. I mean, even in Ron's body who seemed to command the most authority and goes, I feel like Jody, who just choked out their boss, had the most authority there. I mean, even in Ron's body, they're all just fueling the authority coming out of Jody gave off the energy of someone trying to assert authority is what Jody. Yeah. One of the guards still has their sword at Jody and Glenn's bodies back. And another one approaches Daryl and Ron's body and says, where's this Henry fella? I think Henry's got the demon inside of him. We got to get rid of him or else he's going to steal all your personalities and kill you and stuff. And I don't know, bad stuff.
Starting point is 00:29:51 Hey there, fellas. Going to Catholic school, we learned a lot about people with demons inside of them. And I don't think Henry's the type. I don't think we need an exorcism so much as a good old fashioned discussion. No, I agree with Daryl. Look, the demons, we all got demons inside of us. And let me just say for one second that I am Henry. I'm in a different body and I'm going to cast charm person.
Starting point is 00:30:15 Whoa. On whoever was talking. The lead guard, whatever. Is David Boreanaz knocked out yet? David Boreanaz just lost consciousness. All the David Boreanaz fans listening are like, really? We just choked him out immediately. my favorite character from like episode 10 david borianis has no fans the first thing i said that was bad about david borianis was talking about his neck and then the fact that like he got choked out like around his neck everything it's karma
Starting point is 00:30:39 it's because of you i did check off snack henry kind of get in the feel of Daryl's body. It's a little more top heavy. Say that again, but slower. It's not quite the same dance moves. But he goes, hey, look, let's just exercise. Sometimes this is good to move. You know, wiggle therapy. If you've ever heard that, let's just move around. And figure out what's going on here.
Starting point is 00:30:58 And I cast charm person on the four guards. All right. America, if I could transport the video of Matt in the chat right now, slowly tilting his shoulders around while playing Henry. And calling it wiggle therapy. Yes. Wiggle therapy is more like this. How does a
Starting point is 00:31:16 charm person have wisdom saving throws? It's a wisdom saving 17. 17, okay. It's like Uhura in Star Trek distracting them with her fan dance. Here are the four rolls that they got in order. Four, 13, 11, 16. Nice. Wow.
Starting point is 00:31:29 So all four guards immediately distracted by the wiggle therapy going on. Describe what it looks like that transfixes them so and makes them want to be. It's just the truffle shuffle. You just do like. Show us. You just wiggle your body out. You just wiggle it out. Just wiggle it out. I said describe it. It's an audio video. You just wiggle it show us you just wiggle your body out you just wiggle it out just wait it's an audio video you just wiggle out you just wiggle your body you think about just you know when your arms are sleeping you're trying to like get your hands back it's just that but
Starting point is 00:31:53 your whole body you're just shaking your legs and your arms you're just you're just feeling the whole form of yourself you know you're just getting you're getting back in touch with your body or in this case my new body that i got i'd like to think that glenn is watching henry so closely that he likes well they're distracted let's do a dad huddle the pile of books that ron is hiding under moves tremors like over to daryl and ron's body i look at jody and go you stay there narc you're not welcome no everybody's welcoming the dad now they're both of you guys come over here to the dad i'm just taking command this situation right you guys keep wiggling we're gonna talk okay we'll
Starting point is 00:32:23 be right back nicholas walks into the dad huddle as well and is like, I got an idea. I could stab all four of them while they're distracted. Painted with just a normal kid voice is so good. Right in the carotid. Just snip, snip, snip. All done.
Starting point is 00:32:36 Almost feels like I have my real son back. So upsetting. No, wait. Before you do that now, son. Wait, no, you're not my son. Wait, no. It's kind of a both. It's kind of a both scenario it's
Starting point is 00:32:45 fine you know they uh we're all america's children and uh my tiny tiny boy finally actually payton gets to know what it feels like to have his son be smaller than him he's like that's pretty good well i'm saying that while they're accusing us of being the demon we need to track down the real demon you know and see what's going on there So what are the next steps we could take to find that? That's such a cool idea. You're, you're, you're so much better at being Ron than me, Daryl. Oh, geez. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:33:13 Seeing Ron take charge of the situation, like he's like feeling very sad and inspired at the same time. He's like, I gotta, oh man. Mama's right here, baby. I see you. I love you. I think we should all listen to Ron. I mean, Daryl, I mean, oh man. Mama's right here, baby. I see you, I love you. I think we should all listen to Ron. I mean, Daryl, I mean, Ron.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Henry's seeing his own face fall, like in sadness, he doesn't quite know. He just inherently reaches out and like starts tapping his own. He's like, it's okay, me, I mean, Ron. He does the face-off thing to his own face. Yeah. Thanks, Daryl.
Starting point is 00:33:40 I'm just so sad that you're a better Ron than me. Oh, no, nobody can be a better Ron than you, Ron. You're our Ron. So all four guards take 2d6 psychic damage. As Daryl was saying, I mean, who didn't we just have a bunch of demons here? Was Mark? God darn it. I don't remember what is who's what.
Starting point is 00:33:57 There's Mark Likely and Scam Likely. Are they demons? That's right. Mark Likely and Scam Likely were both here and they're both gone now. And if I recall, we made a deal with them, didn't we? Yeah. Favors. I noticed I have a paper cut on my hand, but it's no big deal. Nothing I haven't experienced in football. Am I right, fellas?
Starting point is 00:34:16 All those paper cuts from football. That's actually telling us Daryl never got a play. He was always just holding the playbook. Yeah, there you go. Devastating. Look, there has to be some sort of book in here, something that can help us get out of this situation, right? Books suck. That's a good idea, Glenn.
Starting point is 00:34:35 And I look around for a book on this subject. Give me an investigation roll. Investigation. I got a 17. You find a book about demons. And after a couple of seconds of rifling through the pages, you find one on personality-shifting demons. Did you just do the Owen Wilson wow?
Starting point is 00:34:50 Oh, wow. Oh, wow. That's the twist, is the demon is Owen Wilson. Yes. He's such a versatile actor, he can transform into anyone. It's all the Wilson brothers. That's my headcanon, by the way, for the Likely family, is all the Wilsons. I guess there's just two of them.
Starting point is 00:35:03 Amazing. Hey, guys, take a look at this. I found a book that's got some stuff in it about personality demons. All right. Good job, Ron. Thanks. What does it say? The chapter on personality switching demons mentions that generally personality switches can only happen one of two ways.
Starting point is 00:35:22 One is a chaotic expulsion of involuntary magic so like how babies are made had sex yes it's a chaotic explosion of involuntary matter that's how daryl describes it that's the sweet talk to carol some of this involuntary explosion like a ron joke from a daryl body amazing on tax day On tax day. Tax day. You psychopaths. Time to itemize these deductions. And the second is the intentional replacement of one personality with another through space or time. Okay, guys, so it sounds like there's two ways
Starting point is 00:35:57 that this can happen. It's either a chaotic explosion of involuntary power or an international soup plantation of one personality into another. There's a Bard Rock Cafe, so I think maybe we need to find a soup plantation. No, Ron, you're wrong. I think what we need to do is figure out which one of these it is, because it's not Ron's idea. Ouch.
Starting point is 00:36:18 Oh, no. Oh, my God. I'm doing Matt dirty there. I would have said it like that, Daryl, but I think you're right. I would just say that since it's not one of us getting switched, it's all of us getting switched, it does feel more like the first one.
Starting point is 00:36:30 But I leave that up to the group. If everybody wants to have a say in it and let us know what you all think about it before we decide. Can we at least go to Soup Plantation after this, though? That'd be, you know, because I haven't been in a while
Starting point is 00:36:39 and it's good food. Ron, I don't know how to tell this to you, but Soup Plantation? Is it problematic? Yeah, I was about to say, actually, Ron, if we could go to a place that doesn't have such a problematic name, that would probably be preferred. Yes! Sorry, Henry slash Daryl, what's problematic about it?
Starting point is 00:36:53 Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no! Now let's all try to get along. I didn't want my character to have this arc. Jodi, let me give you some literature. You know, I could be wrong if you have something that you want to say about i'm totally ready to hear but i did read an npr article so literature looking at these two types of ways to uh change personalities uh let's think
Starting point is 00:37:12 about if something in time or space has shifted recently i know i can think of one way that it's changed and ron's body looks seriously at Jody's body. I can't believe we're going back to this again. I know, Henry, wherever you are, you said something about. I'm right here, Glenn. It's me. I'm Henry. You are Henry.
Starting point is 00:37:37 You're in Henry's body. But I believe that we're not just defined by the way we look or our bodies. It's more about what's on the inside. In that case, I am Henry. Yeah, good point, Daryl. You said something about timelines merging. Me and my son here, we can only speak to what we've seen with our own two eyes. And we're in agreement.
Starting point is 00:37:51 Glenn hasn't been here and he's new. And Glenn talking about having a kid all the time. Maybe this is the source of what's happened to us here. Actually, I think, yeah, you're right. That's what I think too. Yeah, I think that's a good idea. I think that's true. You're just going to listen to this narc?
Starting point is 00:38:06 Whatever Daryl says as me, I agree with, because I'm really trying to learn a lot from him right now. So Nicholas looks at all of you and goes, so all of you are now agreed that Glenn is the problem? No. No, hey, nobody's a problem. We're all a team here. This is so confusing.
Starting point is 00:38:19 Guys, I have good news. Okay. Before this all happened, Nicholas took away all of my knives, which means means and he takes out two very large very sharp knives he goes like i could just get stabbed at any time i could take care of these guards and we could just bounce like we don't have to stay here we should probably go to the bar rack cafe though because jody weren't you saying something about
Starting point is 00:38:36 your anchor or whatever yeah i felt something in that direction well look here's let me ask a question just a quick observation of the door itself. Can we bar the door? You have a large number of hardback books that you could use to bar the door. Okay, so I have a very stupid idea for how to do this, but Jody is going to say, Payden, it's very strange to hear the body of my son saying that, but I don't think we need to kill anyone.
Starting point is 00:39:00 I just think that, you know, we can deescalate this situation by extracting ourselves from this room and barring the door on the inside while the guards are distracted. That sounds like a good idea. And I bet we can use a big two by four to nail some tools to the wall to do it with guy stuff. That's like how you do it, right, Daryl? That sounds like a great plan, actually, Ron. You're really thinking. Way to go. You're pretending to be Ron, pretending to be Daryl. In Henry's body. Daryl, thanks so much for the lesson.
Starting point is 00:39:26 I'm really happy to have you mentor me. And then I put out my hand to shake Daryl Ron's hand. I put out my hand and I shake Henry's hand. Okay, well, that's a great idea. So let's get these. Hey, guys, if you don't mind wiggling. Shut up, Henry. Like that, right?
Starting point is 00:39:43 That was pretty funny. That was pretty funny, Ron. I'm not used to myself saying shut up to me i didn't like that i'm sorry henry so i'd like to leave and then i say we all nominate a book to try and like stop the door and then the number of total pages that we nominate from the various books equals how powerful it is great each of you pick the longest book you can think of so jody picks up a copy of atlas shrugged you can think of so jody picks up a copy of atlas shrugged right can we all just really quick take a moment to just acknowledge
Starting point is 00:40:09 that freddie came up with literally the worst dnd mechanic of all time no no just the dumbest fucking idea i've ever heard in my entire life was his idea like the page numbers is how like long we get to because i love that i fucking love that matt i want to be clear jody came up with the dumbest so we're going to use five books and the difference between 600 pages of books or 2 000 pages of books is whether or not this door gets closed okay anyway if you don't want to participate henry slash daryl then you don't have to participate henry picks the smallest book possible because he doesn't want to hurt the trees even though they've already been made into books he's like what's the smallest book possible according to him it's a canceled dr seuss book
Starting point is 00:40:51 he's like i hope this one gets broken when they try to bring this thing down this gets torn apart great henry reveals he's been on twitter this entire time still checking up on what's going on keep it up to date making sure i know what's been on Twitter this entire time. Still checking up on what's going on. Still keeping up to date, making sure I know what's going on. Not talking to the wives, not doing anything, just trying to see who's in trouble. All right. Any other books? I can't think of any.
Starting point is 00:41:15 I mean, Tom Clancy books are long. Rainbow Six is like 900 pages, I believe. Really? Yeah, Rainbow Six is such a long book. Daryl says Rainbow Six is about 900 pages, I believe. Rainbow Six. It's Rainbow Six is such a long one. Daryl says Rambo Six is about 900 pages, I believe. Rambo Six! It's Rainbow Six, Beth. I'm sorry, Beth, it's called Rainbow Six.
Starting point is 00:41:30 Rainbow? Rainbow, yeah. Rainbow Six. Or he could find the novelization of the movie Rambo Six. Yes, that's it. Yeah, he found Rambo Six and mistook it for Rainbow Six. That's the one time I've guessed the not girly thing and had it been like i've been wrong because it's an international uh secret squad of soldiers so it's like all the colors of the
Starting point is 00:41:50 rainbow i guess okay but it's not gay but it's cool it's cool okay ron writes his own book that says the very long book by ron and then i write page 1000 at the end of it and then I had one page you found an empty hardback cover and then wrote that on the inside of both covers of the hardback I guess yes Glenn picks up 1q84 which is a Haruki Murakami book and it's pretty big that's a pretty weird pull for Glenn but okay you know he, you know, he likes weird things. He's giving him dimensions. Yeah. Because his IQ is 84 points, dum-dum. Is that actually what the book's about? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Jody takes these books and jams the door with it. So I think we're all on the other side of the door, plus our birds and our animals, plus our kids. And Bearborios has been thrown away into the other room. Perfect. So you can feel that the Bard Rock Cafe and Jody in Glenn's body, you feel that your anchor is in the Bard Rock Cafe. That is to the west. I'm going to lead the group as I am
Starting point is 00:42:49 wont to do with my great posture. Ron's body scurries up next to me. Jody in Glenn's body. It's like all of a sudden three inches taller. All of a sudden three inches taller. Exactly. It's like, whoa, this whole time, huh? Jody is going to say, all right, I know things are a little bit crazy right now, but we should be trying to solve our objectives as they come. And I feel like my anchor is in this direction. So it doesn't appear that we have an immediate solution for our soul swap scenario. I think we should go pursue my anchor. Hold on just a second. Daryl thinks back to when he was the bad trip from the flowers and how his mind was perverted by drugs. He was paranoid about his friends maybe poisoning him. And he's, hold on a second.
Starting point is 00:43:37 How do I know that one of you isn't the demon that made us do this? Let's see. Hey, Henry. Yeah. Looks like you're getting a pretty sweet deal with that smoking hot bar. that made us do this. Let's see. Hey, Henry. Yeah? Looks like you're getting a pretty sweet deal with that smoking hot bar. I mean, Daryl,
Starting point is 00:43:52 it is your body. I understand why you would be attracted to your own. You know, that's very healthy. I always felt like you had some body issues, but it's nice to see
Starting point is 00:43:59 that you're really appreciating what you got here because I think it's really nice. You know what? Never mind. Nobody could annoy me this much if it weren't actually you. I think you could tell i'm not the demon right a demon would wouldn't just annoy you so it's you're right so are we good there you want you want to ask anybody else any other questions
Starting point is 00:44:15 to make sure that you feel comfortable moving on i have a question yeah do they have a salad bar at the bard rock cafe i've never been to there they open they open? I guess we should find out. Let's go. I'm in charge. Right, Daryl? Let's go. And then Ron marches forward. Great. Oh, all right.
Starting point is 00:44:30 Jody goes, it was my idea. Sure. Okay. I guess if we're moving towards the objective, but you know, I just think that. Sure. I'm getting what you want. Just move. And I push Jody behind.
Starting point is 00:44:40 Don't touch me. Don't touch me, Glenn. Okay. So you head back to the Bard Rock Cafe, which as reminder, is littered with a magical musical accoutrement. You see glowing lutes and fantasy turntables that are made out of bark somehow. Fantasy turntables? It's like two little slices of logs that you just move back and forth against magical needles. I don't know if you guys are ready for DJ Darul.
Starting point is 00:45:04 So when you head into the Bard Rock Cafe, you see that the walls of the restaurant are lined with different mannequins that have clothing on them that appears to be like, these are the actual clothes that this musician may have worn during their very famous tour or whatever. And there are different halls, one for human musicians, one for elven musicians, and one for demonic musicians. And Jodi different halls, one for human musicians, one for elven musicians, and one for demonic musicians. And Jody, you can feel the pull leading you toward the hall of demonic musicians. Of course. Yeah. So I got to just sort of speak honestly here. And Nicholas, if you can stay by my side, just want to make sure. Yeah, no problem. Of course,
Starting point is 00:45:39 I think we need to go down this hallway that says demonic music. Oh, like Black Sabbath or NWA? Exactly like those terrible, terrible bands. Nothing good down there. Nothing good like Nickelback or I'm trying to think of good bands. Creed? Dave Matthews Band? There's no Dave Matthews Band? There's probably not Dave Matthews Band down there.
Starting point is 00:46:01 Certainly no Ants Marching. Real talk, before we even get into this, guess who was the biggest DMV fan in our family growing up? John Mayer. That would be one, Frederick Wong. Look at that.
Starting point is 00:46:10 He played his music on his guitar. He's good. He's good at guitar. Wanted to go see him at the Gorge. Okay, all right. He was good at guitar and it's a great live show. Don't get me wrong.
Starting point is 00:46:18 Real quick, Freddie Wong speaking here. Who the heck's man puts on a good live show even though he pooped on a bunch of people on the Chicago River? But who has? But who hasn't really? Hey guys, it's me, Dave Matthews. Get my fucking good live show even though he pooped on a bunch of people in the Chicago River? But who has? But who hasn't, really? Hey, guys, it's me, Dave Matthews.
Starting point is 00:46:27 Get my fucking name out of your mouth, Freddie. That's right. There's going to be no Dave Matthews Band down there. And who knows how terrible and demonic this music is. But I think we have to go. And Nicholas, just as a quick moment here, I want to point out that I'm feeling a little bit scared right now. But that's okay. Because conquering your fear is how you become more powerful. just a quick moment here. I want to point out that I'm feeling a little bit scared right now, but that's okay because conquering your fear is how you become more powerful.
Starting point is 00:46:52 Right, right. It's like you told me what John Wayne said, fear is being scared to your boots and saddling up anyway. Exactly. Let's remember the great words of John Wayne. Doesn't explain why you're such a weakling. I like John Wayne too. And as much as uh do enjoy a quick sin with the naughty music i i have to say that uh from a you know from a perspective of getting us all right back in the right place uh i do think we need to go down this demonic hall yeah agreed i'll send you a little article about john wayne we can talk about this later but there's some few things you should know you're all afraid of nothing this is some of the greatest music ever known to man down this hallway.
Starting point is 00:47:26 Daryl, really quick. That was a great thing you said. Does it remind you of like a sports analogy maybe? You know, I think that even though the demonic music like Black Sabbath looks like it's going to pass the ball, it might be a Statue of Liberty play where there's actual demons here and I actually have to Nicholas pats you on the back and goes
Starting point is 00:47:51 you're so good at sports, you know so many things about sports. Thanks, Dad. Love my baby boy. I should get good at sports too Should I get good at football or soccer Daryl? You know, just keep slicing those oranges Ron Wow, riding the bench We're learning so much about best opinion of how You know, just keep slicing those oranges, Ron.
Starting point is 00:48:06 Wow. We're learning so much about best opinion about Matt treats Ron. No, I'm doing Matt dirty here, but it's all I know. Everyone's kind of doing everyone a little dirty. It's great. You got it, coach. I'm going to do an investigation
Starting point is 00:48:20 to see if I can find any oranges in your body. I got a 16. 16, you find one orange left in the salad bar. There's a salad, but Jess, it's all working out, alright! And then I go and I get the orange. Oh, hey, good job, Ron. Nice, good job, Ron.
Starting point is 00:48:37 Let's get into the, I mean, I'm a little scared here. Jody, I agree with you, it's good to conquer fear. I was along with you on that first half of your inspirational speech, the second half got a little bit too power hungry for me, it was jody i agree with you it's good to conquer fear i i was along with you on that first half of your inspirational speech the second half got a little bit too power hungry for me it was a little bit but you know i understand let's get into this tunnel you know what honestly i want to get back in my body i just say i just want to get back i've spent a lot of time getting comfortable with my body i'm getting a little nervous here so i don't know if you've earned being back in your own body henry i think i'm doing a pretty good job being Henry right now. I just say. Ron's killing it.
Starting point is 00:49:05 I mean, I thought you were being. Did you? I found this orange. Yeah. It's nature stuff. Good for you, Ron. Good for you. I think someone like you, your body, Henry's body isn't really limiting for you. Meanwhile, you know, this body is a little bit limiting for the
Starting point is 00:49:21 person that is Daryl, which is me. I'm sorry. And I stick my hand out and then I make it a is me. Oh, you're right. I'm sorry. And I stick my hand out and then I make it a thumb and I put it back on myself. I'm like, heck yeah. Yeah, so let's all get it back in our own bodies. You're right.
Starting point is 00:49:32 You could do a lot better, you know, not in my body. I should probably take my body back. And I say, oh, Ron, no, you're fine just the way you are. All right, I'll stay in Henry's body then. Let's go. Okay. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:49:44 We'll talk about this later. Let's just get going. Joey marches ahead holding Payden slash Nick's hand. Yeah, no, it's Payden's hand, but it's Nick in there. Payden's hand. Who's Nick? Yes. So as you walk through the hall of demonic musicians,
Starting point is 00:49:56 you see the cross of Ice Demon who played bass, and you see the scarf of a wind demon that played the drums. And then at the very end of the hallway, you see something that is bizarrely familiar just to you, Jodi. And when you look down at the nameplate under the mannequin, it's a name that's very familiar to you, even though you don't have too many memories of them from your childhood. And it's the name of your mother, which is Dee Snider.
Starting point is 00:50:23 childhood and it's the name of your mother, which is Dee Snider. And you see the mannequin with Dee Snider's signature dress that she would wear when she was rocking out on the mic. And a lot of your confusion is beginning to bubble up into the surface and your heart is beginning to beat a little bit faster because you know that since you were a kid, you've heard a lot about your mom Dee Snider and how cool she was, but you never met her. And a lot of your memories from that time are really, really hazy.
Starting point is 00:50:48 And you knew when you came here and you saw the other Omega Daddies and how horrible they were, you would occasionally see little glimpses of somebody who looked somehow familiar to you flashing in and out behind the Omega Daddies and pointing just at you. And maybe it's not something you ever mentioned
Starting point is 00:51:03 to the other daddies because you didn't want to seem too crazy or anything, but it was something you noticed a lot of. Not to interrupt, but as I walk down this hallway and I see all these awesome axes, I'd like to roll perception to see if any of them will be a sick weapon for me, my character, Glenn Close to wield.
Starting point is 00:51:17 Yeah, go ahead and roll perception. Good idea, Glenn Close. Yeah, I'm going to do that. 15. So with a 15, yeah, you see that the large base that's being held, with a 20, you would have found a guitar, but with a 15, yeah, you see that the large base that's being held, with a 20, you would have found a guitar, but with a 15, you find that the replica of the base
Starting point is 00:51:28 that one of these demons held that's like bladed on either side, that would be a pretty good melee weapon, look pretty badass. Like a big axe. Sick. I'm going to totally grab it and be like sad that it's a base, but totally okay, that's a sick weapon. Cool. And feel no remorse for interrupting your sick flow of the podcast, Anthony.
Starting point is 00:51:43 So Jody looks at everyone and says, Dads plus Glenn, I don't know how to say this, but that's my mother. Whoa. She's pretty hot. Yeah, it is. Hey, okay. Oh my gosh. Jody, she's definitely, she seems like a lovely, was a lovely woman.
Starting point is 00:52:03 What is, are you doing okay there? I don't understand, but she wasn't from, was she from here? What does this mean? As you ask that, you hear a like, like slowly like growing in volume. And then, yeah, once it reaches the like, part of a fucking immigrant song, the mannequin in front of you begins to move.
Starting point is 00:52:32 Oh, it begins to headbang and features appear on its face emblazoned in fire. And it goes, son, you made it. Yeah. All right. You finally made it. Oh, I've been waiting for this whole time. Wow. Wow.
Starting point is 00:52:43 Such great pitch control. Mom? It's your mom. You finally came back into the fold. It's time to leave all this bull crap behind that happened to you, and it's time to be what you were always meant to be. Who are these other jokers? Finally, we get to have Jody go off with his mom and never come back.
Starting point is 00:53:03 Nice knowing you guys. See ya. These are my friends, Mom. We've been trapped in this world and we've been trying to get back. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, snap. Oh, snap. So you don't... Sad guitar
Starting point is 00:53:16 noise. So you don't remember? Remember what? Uh-oh. Uh-oh. And Dee Snider's eyes turn to Peyton and Nicholas's body. That's, uh, is that like some random kid you found? Tell me that's just some random kid you found, please. One of them is, but the other one's my son.
Starting point is 00:53:35 No, that's going to make this weird and awkward. You're not going to like this. The other one's my father. Wait a second. I'm liking where this is going. This gal's got style. Hey, Glenn, Glenn, Glenn, this is really good for you, but let's try to be a little empathy for Jody here.
Starting point is 00:53:52 This is going to be a really tough time for him, okay? You barely even know the guy. I know, but we're all human beings here. We're all just trying to make it through this crazy journey called life, so let's just hang in there, okay, Glenn? Come on. All right, Captain Buzzkill. Glenn, it seems like the character Jody is going to get to have a big emotional moment,
Starting point is 00:54:03 and the actor who's playing Jody in this episode is going to get to have a big emotional moment and the actor who's playing Jody in this episode is going to get to have Jody's big emotional climax of his story arc. So just give him some space so he can focus and have this big cool moment on the podcast. Gosh, man, it feels like the real actor in the room is going to be upset by the fact that he's being overturned by someone that's finally having an arc, but it's actually
Starting point is 00:54:19 him playing his brother's character in another body. I see the dramatic irony. I stick my hand out and say, hi, I'm Daryl. The mannequin reaches over and grabs your hand and goes, hi, I'm Dee Snider. Wait, mom? You're some kind of demon?
Starting point is 00:54:37 I'm so confused right now. So wait, y'all looking kind of confused. Do you want to maybe go back to your own bodies before I start this? What's going on? Why'd you come to me? Oh, that'd be great. If you were confused, if you don't know who you are, what even brought you here? Well, I was here to try and destroy my anchor, but I don't even know what this means right now.
Starting point is 00:55:01 Real quick, Anthony, where is the anchor on the mannequin? Is it the mannequin itself? You see, it is the mannequin itself. I need to destroy whatever this mannequin is in order to get back home with my son, Nick. But. Oh, man, I'm an anchor. Oh, that stupid warlock. Oh, that sucks.
Starting point is 00:55:16 And your son. Oh, that also sucks. Wait, what warlock? Well, Jody, it seems like you're in the same position that I am. My dad is kind of an anchor as well. He's also paid in. I love him. My dad's an emotional anchor.
Starting point is 00:55:29 That's what Samantha told me. No, Ron, you are so much better than your dad. Your dad's not an anchor. He's a fucking he's a he's an asshole. He's an asshole. That's what Samantha says. She says, I got to cut him loose. I've been trying. You got to cut him from the team. If you says. She says, I got to cut him loose. I've been trying.
Starting point is 00:55:45 You got to cut him from the team if you want to use a sports bet. You got to cut him from the team. Yeah, he can eat a bunch of oranges. All right, look here, weird, creepy lady mannequin thing. You may have amazing control of that voice and something I'm jealous of, but you need to switch us back immediately so we can figure out what the hell's going on. Well, are you the one who messed up our bodies in the first, our body minds in the first place? Yeah. What? No, why would I ever do that? I couldn't even get in contact with you until my boy came here close to his anchor.
Starting point is 00:56:14 Although I'm looking at it now, I guess in the wrong body. You can see that we're all in the wrong body? I can sense it. Yeah, you're all acting kind of weird. I'm not using any magic or whatever. You just are acting really bizarre. Ma'am, ma'am, hi, I'm Henry Oak. Can we just rewind for a moment here? You kind of offer that you could put us all back in our bodies. Is that something you can do? Because if so, I think we'd all be really interested in that. Yeah, I could do it again. Sure, happily. Do we have any more cell phones? Do we have any
Starting point is 00:56:35 working cell phones? In all the hubbub, Glenn and Jody's body has failed to notice that his cell phone is ringing. Oh, shit. Oh, I'm gonna turn away from everyone and take it out and look at it. Morgan is calling. I open it up. Hello?
Starting point is 00:56:49 Hey, hey, honey. Hey, are you okay? Are you okay? It's been, you know, honestly like 45 seconds, but I'm just really, I miss you a lot. I'm really scared
Starting point is 00:56:58 and I want to make sure that Nicholas is okay. Is he around? Could I talk to him? Morgan? Yeah. Is that really you? Yeah. So it really you? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:05 So it's been a really busy 45 seconds for you, huh? You sound all different. Oh. Honey. How are you? How are you holding up? I mean, not great. My boys are gone.
Starting point is 00:57:18 I miss you terribly. I miss you so much. Hey, me too. Are you okay? You sound, like, scared. I haven't heard you like this in a... I can't... So Glenn starts to have a panic attack because he's literally never been in a position this emotionally vulnerable in his entire life, nor in the podcast.
Starting point is 00:57:32 So Glenn and Jody's body, you can see across the room, Nicholas is turning back to you and he sees a lot of panic in your eyes. So he strides it very confidently and he pats you on the back and he takes the phone with his other hand and sort of puts it between the two of you. So she's kind of on speaker and she goes, it's okay, mom. Shitty dad and I are totally fine and we love you so much.
Starting point is 00:57:58 We still suck, but we love you with all the sucking. I haven't stabbed anyone. And you see this struggling and you see behind him that like Nicholas is using his hand to keep Peyton at arm's length and Peyton is trying to slap him like, let me talk to my mom. Let me talk to my mom. And Nicholas is like, I got it. I got it. It's fine. I'm doing a great job.
Starting point is 00:58:15 It's really Morgan. She's really alive. She doesn't remember me. She doesn't know who I am. She doesn't know who I am. She doesn't remember me. Dad's having a little, there was a spell. There was a spell. Ah, a big crazy spell. But I stabbed the guy, so it's fine.
Starting point is 00:58:29 But we'll call you back. I love you, Mom. I love you so much, Mom. Morgan, Morgan, don't get in the car. Don't get in the car, Morgan. And he hangs up the phone for you. And he goes, it's okay. It's okay, man.
Starting point is 00:58:38 You got to keep it together, though. You got to keep it together. You're going to have a panic attack. That's not good. Glenn crumbles to the ground. We got to have you here now. This is important. Are you okay?
Starting point is 00:58:44 Can I use the phone now? I wanted to call someone. Yeah, you're going to have a panic attack. That's not good. Glenn crumbles to the ground. We got to have you here now. This is important. Are you okay? Can I use the phone now? I wanted to call someone. Yeah, no problem. And Nicholas tosses you the phone. Henry walks over to Glenn in Jody's body and gives him a big hug and is kind of rubbing his back. Jody looks over at Glenn and kind of scoffs. He's like, I mean, I got to say the team is having difficulty keeping it together, keeping their on the mission i'm gonna be honest hey back off fucking jody yeah i agree joey you've been really cool with you for a moment but that was obviously really emotional for glenn and what
Starting point is 00:59:13 you just said was really inconsiderate so you know go go fuck yourself yeah how about that feel something for glenn there as everyone's yelling at each other you hear ron in the background go hey beth it's me, Ron. You probably don't recognize my voice, but I just, I'm really freaked out right now. And I needed to tell someone that I've gone through a lot. And I, you know, I don't know if I want to be Ron anymore. Should I go back to being Ron or should I stay as Henry? And every time I have to fuck somebody, I fuck them like my dad's going to come in
Starting point is 00:59:45 and make me go through the rest of the pack. I'm sorry, I was doing the audio book of my poetry book. I was recording my audio book. Oh my goodness. I didn't catch that. You're, this is Ron? I'm talking to Ron? It's Ron, yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:58 I know I sound like Ron's cool friend Henry, but I just, I want a little perspective. You know, we're all going to switch our bodies back. Do you think I should go back to being Ron or do you like Henry more as like, far as like, I feel like I could do different stuff than what I was doing. I'm just really turned around. Uh, I can't remember you telling me much about Henry. Is that the, trying to think of what Ron would have said about the other dads before going on this thing. Wild to be watching this from a person who was both things.
Starting point is 01:00:23 It's wild to be watching this from a person who is both things. Okay, yeah, yeah. Is Henry the condescending one who's kind of hot, but you resent yourself for it? Yeah, and he's got the wife that talks in Elvish. I mean, Spanish. I can't remember what it's called. I don't know how many times I've had to tell you that Spanish is a real thing. I don't know why it doesn't stick. It's because it's muy bueno to speak Spanish on the television.
Starting point is 01:00:47 Anyway, I got to go. Thanks, Beth. I thought this would be funnier than it was, so I hang up. I think it's pretty good. I think it was okay. Feel free to pick up The Immortal Soul Savage Yard on paperback right now. I thought that it was pretty funny. I mean, hey, Ron, when you called Beth, you know, you should have given her a chance to
Starting point is 01:01:06 give you a better advice because she's really good at giving advice. Oh, shoot. You know, you're right. I call Beth Beth. She's what some people call a mom friend. Oh, my God. Hey, Beth, just hang on. I'm going to put Daryl on speakerphone because he's been giving me some good advice lately. And so I just want to hear from both of you what I should do. So, hey, you're on with Daryl. And this book is dedicated to the best man I know, Anthony Burch. No, that's stupid. I got to delete that. I better delete that.
Starting point is 01:01:29 That's not going in any of the editions. Sorry, what's going on? Hey, Beth, it's me, Daryl Wilson. I put my hand out. I know you're on a phone. The hand bow one. Yeah, so Daryl. I'm the hand bow hand.
Starting point is 01:01:39 Yeah. You sound like Ron. That's interesting. No. Somebody asked me a question about whether Ron should keep being Ron. I like Ron. Oh, thanks, man. Ron, I assume you're listening.
Starting point is 01:01:50 You're cool. You're fine. I mean, you're not cool. You're okay. There's a lot of stuff about you that's really confusing or whatever, but you're you. And there's something beautiful about that. In my book, The Immortal Soul Sound Yard, which you can get on Amazon now, I talk a lot about what it is to be you and the damage you carry with you and how we're all sort of combinations of things that have done to us and the things that we do.
Starting point is 01:02:12 And a lot has happened to you, obviously, and you've also done a lot in return with Terry and stuff. So I think you're fine. I think you're an okay person. It's okay to be just okay. Ron is silent and Henry's body just crying and there's just tears streaming down his face and he says thanks beth i really appreciate that okay cool i'm gonna go uh tweet some shit about the titanic thinking and how it's like a blow job and it's gonna go nuclear on my retweet so i'm gonna go ahead and have to i'm gonna have to prepare myself mentally for that for a couple hours i just want to say beth if if you're not like emotionally happy with
Starting point is 01:02:43 how the tweet does you can call me and I'll listen. I can listen to you complain about that. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. You know what? I will. Okay. Back to the show.
Starting point is 01:02:52 I have transcended this podcast. I have removed my skin and I'm only a brain and a heart naked with all of these stabbings. Is that a new poem in the book? Yes, actually. Amazing. Right before you put the phone away, you instantly get a text that says, a thousand likes? Fucking ridiculous. Weak. Could have done better. Mom, what's going on? Okay, so
Starting point is 01:03:17 I can lay all this out, but it's going to be kind of a bummer. First, before the exposition, we're going to do a body one second before we do that Glenn do it's a lot going on
Starting point is 01:03:31 can I just can we all just take one second to just look because very rarely do we get to see our own bodies in three dimensional space outside ourselves
Starting point is 01:03:38 can we all just take a moment to just really to just really acknowledge and appreciate our forms for one second. And then Demon, do you mind if you give us that moment?
Starting point is 01:03:46 Anytime. Take as much time as you need. So Henry starts looking at his body and just kind of circles it and just kind of, you know, admires and feels the power and the understanding of the space that he inhabits normally. Ron's body steps up behind Daryl and spanks him and says, looking good, cowboy. Oh, hey. Okay. I mean, I guess it's fair.
Starting point is 01:04:11 It is your body. That's absolutely something I guess you can do. Joey looks at Jody's body crying and goes, heh. Damn. Ron is looking at himself
Starting point is 01:04:22 in a mirror and goes, I don't get what's so special about this, Henry. Amazing. Glenn is still speechless. Dee Snyder goes, all right, everybody go ahead and close your eyes and I'm going to do the spell
Starting point is 01:04:33 and just for the sake of my own sanity, I'm just going to sort of rip the fantasy bandaid off in one go. So, so, so. Nicholas, put earmuffs on. Both of you, cover each other's ears. Hearing both of those people simultaneously say that, the two kids are both about to protest,
Starting point is 01:04:47 but then they sort of like squint, and Nicholas goes, all right, I guess, and sheaves the knives and puts his hands on Peyton's ears, and Peyton goes, of course, father, and then puts his hands on Nicholas's ears. And then Dee Snider says like, okay, this is gonna feel weird, but just trust me, it's all gonna be good, it's gonna be good.
Starting point is 01:05:11 And as your eyes are closed, you feel like a heave forward like you get massive vertigo for a split second and you feel your body transition from the body that you're in to another body and as that is happening you hear the voice of d snyder say so the whole Jodie Foster thing, like that is your name, but the identity you have, like you're a demon. You're my son. You're a demon. You lived and we killed stuff together
Starting point is 01:05:35 and it was awesome. But then we got attacked and you got trapped in a battle axe, made a hatred. And then that battle axe got taken by the state and then they broke it open and sucked you out like the yolk from an egg and then they kept you around in case they needed to do anything messed up so while that was happening another trial was going on with this dick bag named glen oh that's who who that is. Glenn Close. Okay. Yes, yes, yes, yes. All right. It's all coming together. So there was a trial. The ruling was
Starting point is 01:06:09 that this cat had to lose his son. And so the easiest way to do that is to send somebody back in time to change the timeline. And the only thing that can do that intentionally, especially when it comes to taking identities, is a demon. So they took you and they shoved you back in time and they found the cop that found his dead wife. And they put your personality into his body. So basically you are a demon inside the body of the cop that found Glenn Close's dead wife, but you went back far enough that you met Glenn Close's wife.
Starting point is 01:06:45 I wish you hadn't because that makes it complicated. And the entire time I've been looking for you and trying to get you back here and using as much mommy magic as I could to get a location on you. And I finally managed to drag you here. So this anchor thing that whatever you don't have an anchor, you're from here. You can stay here as long as you want to. I just wanted to chat with you and hang out and be cool. Then who was phone?
Starting point is 01:07:05 Sorry, that's all messed up, but whenever you want to, you can get all your memories back and return to your demon form, and all you gotta do is basically think, I wanna be a demon again, and then you'll be a demon again, and your body will turn into fire, and the meat part will die,
Starting point is 01:07:19 whatever, but you'll be super powerful, and I can hang out and be mother and son. So I'm so excited for that to happen. So yeah, whenever you're ready, just go ahead and think, I'm a demon, I want to be a demon, and then we can hang out and you don't have to be that weird meat dad anymore.
Starting point is 01:07:33 Jody, back in his own body, explicitly thinks, I'm not a demon. I'm a daddy. Well, unfortunately, I didn't say that you went back into your own body. No! No! No! How did I not see this coming?
Starting point is 01:07:52 Jimmy, you have Henry in your body. Oh, my God. Freddie, you have Daryl in your body. Oh, my God. Beth, you have Jodi in your body. Oh, God. Matt, you have Ron in your body. And Will, you have Glenn in your body.
Starting point is 01:08:04 Oh, my God. So she goes, so anyway, that's all Ron in your body. And Will, you have Glenn in your body. Oh, my God. So she goes, so anyway, that's all the mommy magic I have right now. But I just wanted to explain that to you. And then, yeah, whenever you're ready, just go ahead and take that. And you'll be back into your original mode. Thank you so much. You've been a wonderful audience. Good night.
