  • Talking Critter Podcast: Tary on my Wayward Son.

    There are some songs that once they get stuck in your head will just stay there.  Thanks to Critical Role last week, we now have a Kansas Classic stuck in our mental Spotify.  This week we look at the new Bounty Hunter and her absconding with Taryon Darrington, we also get a look through the black orb of death under White Stone Castle.  Apparently it’s not a Sphere of Annihilation, but a Sphere of Transportation.   This could be the last arc of Vox Machina as they get closer to level 20.  Epic campaigns tend to get weird and extra planar, so it’s no surprise that we’re going to see more Vox Machina jumping through the realities.  There are still things to tackle on the material plane, and Taryon is at the center of a big plot point.

    Our Question of the Week deals with what Taryon will do.  Will he obey his father’s wishes and marry himself off to keep the Darrington’s afloat?  Or will he stand up to his father, and do what he must to save the family name and fortune?  Put in your vote and let us know what you think is going to happen.

    Question of the Week for Talking Crit, will Taryon Darrington marry to save his father? Vote and let us know. #Criticalrole #DnD

    There are a lot of shout outs this week, let’s get started with Diepod Draws.  This pice of Vex’Thalia art is stunning with the way it plays with contrast and composition.  It’s one of those illustrations that forces you to look closer at the detail in the wings; as well as its ability to follow a natural line up the leg, while becoming unnatural as you follow the wing.  It’s just the hint of Vex that makes it great, with the small feather and flare in the hands that any fan of Critical Role would know who it is.

    The next shout is for another black & white piece illustrated by Robyn Hope, and it’s of Vex firing the Oracle shot through the sphere.  Again, the composition here is great, as we see leading lines that light up Vex, while the darkness shows the void of the Shadowfell.  The gradient of contrast here is amazing as we go from black, to grey, to white with Vex.  The layers stack well, and it gives off a yin-yang feeling to the picture.

  • Talking Crit Podcast: Family Matters
    We have now learned more about the Trickfoots, and what a story.  This was a complete arc from start to finish.  It gave that sense of accomplishment and completion that you get from finishing a video game.  It brought us through the Hero’s Journey, and it was an awesome trip to take.  If you’re not […]

  • Talking Crit Podcast: One Year Later
    We are back and so is Vox Machina.  It’s been a year long break, in game, and a lot has changed.  Critical Role has jumped back into the fray with new developments, and one deck of many things.  The comedy that came off the interaction with Grog and the new Lord of the Crossroads was […]

  • Talking Crit Podcast: Jugs & Rods
    Things come to a conclusion in this week’s episode of Critical Role.  The group takes time to decompress and digest everything that has happened.  We get more drinking adventures, as well as delving deep into character back stories.  Tary becomes more and more compelling, as we get journey with him as he discovers himself.  Brendan […]

  • Talking Crit Podcast: Bats Out of Hell
    It’s time for Vox Machina to blow this hellish plane and plow on outta there.  It is mission accomplished across all boards, just ignore the destroyed robot parts inter corner there.  The Werebear will clean that up, no problem.  This was a great conclusion to a classic dungeon crawl.  It also left us all with […]

  • Talking Crit Podcast: Deals in the Dark
    The Machina has landed, in Hell Jail.  The heroes are mid crawl through a hellish prison, but what a lead up to that moment.  There were some classic VM tropes in this episode, all from a confused and avoided encounter, a tormented vendor, and something new to the group.  On a side note, check out […]

  • Talking Crit Podcast: Vox Machina Goes to Hell
    Queue up the AC/DC once more, because we’re on a high way to Hell, did anyone else have that strumming through their head while Vox Machina wandered the streets of Dis?  We got to see a lot, and learn a lot in the Second Level of Hell, and everyone had their think hard hats on […]

  • Talking Crit Podcast: The Voice of the Tempest
    It is a solo podcast today, as we learn that Jonny has problems understanding calendars.  This week’s episode was a turning point, for plot and for character development.  We got some hilarious adventures with Taryon & Grog, which was much needed, but we also got some ever loving background info.  The research they did into […]

  • Talking Crit Podcast: Curious Tides
    Last week’s episode had a little bit of everything.  It had drama, heartbreak, suspense, and a massive amount of comedy.  Vox Machina survived the Kraken, and Keyleth finished her Aramente.  If you think they’re winding up some loose story threads, you would be right.  However, we have some new threads being pulled, and Vex pledging […]
