This D&D episode is the greatest podcasting ever done

It is maybe the greatest podcasting ever done. And I'm just going to say it, podcasting ever done. I think I'd said that if Game of Thrones creators had had had a last season that was half as good as this, then everyone would have critical claim of it. That's how good it is. Get excited.

This is a purely subjective aesthetic judgment.

Nick Turani is the biggest nerd in the Barstool office

And we have added the biggest nerd in the office in Nick Turani. It's fair to say here. Hot seat Jake. Yeah.

Being the 'biggest nerd' is a subjective office ranking.

Lost Mines of Phandelver is the quintessential D&D adventure that almost everyone who has played the game has experienced

The adventure that I have planned for us today is a classic. It is known as Lost Mines of Phandelver. It is one of the most well-known D&D adventures. ... honestly, it's a well-known adventure. It's in the beginner box. So if anybody has played any adventure here, it would be that one.

Lost Mines of Phandelver was the adventure included in the 5th Edition Starter Set (2014), making it the most-played introductory module in history.

My character, Norm, is going to be a problem in 2030

I'm like the kid that Bleacher Report posts like this, the seventh grader, who's seven feet. And he's just dunking on a bunch of like five foot kids. Yeah. That's me right now. This kid's going to be a problem in 2030.

The take refers to a fictional character's development and is a satirical application of sports tropes.

The Chargers' game against the Raiders is a must-win

The Chargers might have the most must-win game of all time playing the Raiders with the schedule they have. If they don't win this week, it's over.

The Chargers' season outcome and whether the loss effectively ended their season had not been resolved at the time of the episode.

Texas won; Ohio State choked

I'll say Texas win, Ryan Day choke. The play calling, I don't know, maybe they got too conservative. I think they probably did.

This is a retrospective interpretation of the game rather than a purely objective claim; assigning primary blame is subjective.

Oregon is probably out if it loses to USC

The USC game will be massive. If Oregon loses that game, they're probably out.

Oregon's playoff status after the USC game was still unresolved at the time of the episode.
