Katherine

Thank you naddpod, I'm sick on Halloween and didnt know I needed this

Paul C

LOL yes

TwoPuppetsTTV

You guys have been on a roll lately

Claire and Cal

I am cleaning the house and am so happy to have this to listen to. Good grinch I was bored!

Lauren Hill

YES! I absolutely adore this movie

Olivia Francis

I’m listening this pregaming for Halloween, perfect timing babies thank u

Rain

Ohhhhh I can’t wait for this one

Hostage4hire

Murph progressively getting more upset at everyone for liking the show or having an opinion other than “bad” has become a cornerstone for mixed bags i fear

CSN

The GCU runs deeper than I ever would have imagined! This feels like when I first learned about the Star Wars Christmas Special. Did I miss The Grinch Does Diwali?

Patrick Shannon

Pretty clear to me that Murph is the Grinch

chris Mcgrew

Yes!!!!!!! Happy halloween people of the 2crew!!!!!

CommodoreBlue

31:06 is the moment they finished explaining the plot. That has to be a record, lol

Declane Gilhooley

You guys might as well just do a grinch one shot

Kellyd

"A ROM-com?" made me choke on my dinner

Maggie O

You should check out the grinch grinches the cat in the hat. I watched it with my brother and cousin the day I broke my wrist, and had to ask the next day if it was real because it felt like a Vicodin fever dream

AJ Reid

I had a Merlin growing up and the vibes you guys got for how it functions is 100% correct. It’s just playing games on a phone but on the nine buttons

Declan Konesky

At first I was like 'wow! Nail on the Grinch coffin' And then I was totally like 'totally a brutal Trinyvale one shot for Xmas' possibly using a new system... OR just being so absurdly powerful in 5e that the situation is insane the whole way through

Bryce Peterson

Damn nice MF Doom pull Murph. Emily is absolutely right; make sure to remind yourself you’re worth a first-class Grinching ❤️

Grass

I really should have dressed up as the grinch this year :(

A. Lee. S

Excellent, heading out to walk the corgis and needed a funny walking podcast 🤭 do you think I could convince the corgis to let me put grinch costumes on them?

Tim Romero

My favorite part about the Grinch is Murph’s tiny L.

AnxiousAmphibian

So sorry but I am a Halloween is Grinch Night enjoyer

Dave 3D Art

You absolutely need to read the original ROM: Space Knight. Bill Mantlo at his best. Fantastic writing with some of the best covers of the 80s. I for one am surprised that Caldwell was not familiar with it considering some of his comics knowledge. Firestorm the Nuclear Man is arguably a more niche pull.

Dave 3D Art
>>153967038

Not even for a mixed bag. If no one else, you gotta check it out Caldwell.

Dave 3D Art

But seriously, not a Grinch fan. Could live without the G-Man ever coming up again in Naddpod. But as a segue into ROM Space Knight being brought to more attention, it has my thanks.

kin

4 mins in and murph is already yelling i am so happy

Sam

My grinch socks came in the mail today and now this……. The grinch gods are real and their gifts are plentiful

Kitty

Thank you so much for this Halloween blessing

aloox

Exactly what I wanted this halloween. Grinch. 😂

thiswayjose

I didn’t realize how much I missed Murph getting gaslit for our entertainment

Kate W

MF Doom? I knew Murph was cool but I didn't think he was cool like that

Kate W
>>153966230

Yeah that was a crazy pull Murph made. It really threw me off for a second

naddpod
>>153967038

Oh shit! I do love a good cosmic comic. And yeah the inks on this are crisp as hell. Gonna check it out ~Caldwell

Tyance Schubel

"Youre not worthy of a first class grinching" is my favorite saying im using all holiday season now

Dave 3D Art
>>153967038

Excellent. I hope I'm not overselling it, but it's a solid book that had a significant impact on the Marvel Universe. Rogue would never have joined the X-Men if she had not absorbed his inherent good.

Colby Greer

For Christmas can we get a review of "Mean One" the grinch horror movie

Aster Ellis
>>153965660

Tbh I loved my Merlin, I was so obsessed with magic square that one time I used poker chips to recreate it in analog. The other games weren't bad either, I think the key was that I was homeschooled with very little in the way of tech.

AJ Reid
>>153965660

It was genuinely my favorite toy as a kid no lie. I even found it recently and it’s still gas

Ben Delahay

Didn’t believe it could be as bad as Murph was saying, but he’s right it actually sucked so bad

Emil

The Merlin catching a stray as old and boring was so shocking to me because I got one for Christmas in 2008, and my sister and I loved it so much we would physically fight over it. But also we didn't get internet or phones until 2017 so i guess it's possible we were just dazzled by technology like cavemen seeing fire for the first time, or maybe toys have processed a lot in the past sixteen years alone

Josh Kumar

Fun fact: The Grinch Night Halloween Special won an Emmy.

bacchicbasileus

murph namedropping the MF DOOM (rip) is just another massive W for naddpod, i find new ways of loving the 3 of you (and that guy who keeps sneaking into 8-Bit Bookclub sometimes? I guess he's cool.) thank you for all the joy you bring <3

Emil
>>153978654

Grew up in the middle of nowhere! We had internet at school, but at home, we couldn't get wifi till the last half of high school, and since we didn't really have phones, there was just no way to get it!

Alice W

I personally subscribe to the theory that the Grinch has gone through several dogs and whenever one runs away he just gets a new one and names it Max again because he doesn’t care enough to choose a new name

Kathryn Martin

Holy shit! Murph’s absolute OBSESSION with the Flintstones must be because he’s made out of stone

Courtney F.

Happy Halloween, all!!! 🎃👻

Andrew Fuckerman

Do the Star Wars Holiday Special next!

tori

ah so I see we are gaslighting murph again

Agnitti

I would like to request that some part of the NaddContent that comes out in December is a Grinch Movie marathon watch-along. (Preferably live streamed 'cause I miss Live Naddpod so much, but I'd take it as just some podcast audio too)

sage penelopy

i just went to imdb and this movie’s name was changed from “halloween is grinch night” to “it’s grinch night” so i suppose they had to admit it had absolutely 0 halloween vibes 😂

Kingzley Sparkman

Other people mentioned it in the comments but Murph dropping MF DOOM lore wipes away every tiny L he stacked this episode. Massive W

AXWH

"My name is Murph. G.R.I.N.CH., first class."

Ilana Galpert

*love interest spills coffee on Rom* Rom (short circuiting): y-you set my sparks on fire ❤️⚡

Andrea Quinn
>>153972636

The best. (Though they also weirdly have it in Detroit and parts of New England.) Jersey, I think, is especially unique because we have like 4 different names for the night, depending on where in Jersey you’re from: Mischief Night, Devil’s Night, Cabbage Night and Goosey Night.

Riley Holmes

The small child describing in detail what an astigmatism was had me cackling

Ilana Galpert

"Until you, I thought no one could breach my firewalls. You've rewritten the code in my CPU and, even if I wanted to uninstall you from my memory drives, it would be impossible. You've become a core function of this unit."

Featherweight

Rom the space knight has like surprisingly deep history.

Del

Emily: “Let’s all say how we all feel about it first”. Me: running to get popcorn for an inevitable Murph meltdown

Del
>>153998496

I watched it and it was truly a delight. It may not live up to the Grinch or other Seuss films but being not great doesn’t make it not good. It was dreamy and trippy and silly and I had a good time.

JaycobJoh

I had this on dvd as a kid and watched it religiously throughout the early 2000’s and this has brought back some serious nostalgia. I know it’s not for everyone but I was suprised Murph hated it as much as he did

Gnaeus Corbulo

Was not expecting Murph to bring up MF DOOM at all! Now I'm wondering if he likes Czarface

Weston Thorman

Murph being on the verge of bursting a blood vessel the entire time has me rolling

Tiffany

I love living vicariously through Murph losing his mind at the gang

Zarroc

I desperately need to hear Caldwell describe what the Grinch’s Domain Expansion looks like

Gecko Extraodinare

On the Rom movie: apparently paramount had been planning a toy cinematic universe around 2018 and that would have included a ROM movie

Javan Thomas

My Dungeons and Dragons podcast referencing MF DOOM on Grinch Night...my Holy Trinity of Niche Interests has been completed. I am at peace now

Chill_Dudes_Winter

After the intial thoughts... Oh... This is How the Gaslight Stole MurphOween. Lmao, love it!

Bransy330

I fear that I'll never be able to stop thinking about this being the Grinch Dune Messiah

Pamphleteer

My ancestors would curse me if I didn't jump in here to complain about the noble Amish people being compared to those weak, sinful Quakers

Austin H.

Murph being annoyed by anything is my favorite thing ever

Renee

Murph almost having a heart attack is understandable lmao

Renee

I forgot I’d watched this until they started talking about how absurd it is.

ananarama

Love to hear that Murph is a DOOM fan. Makes me believe him more about this cartoon lol

Jared D.

Murph being so anti-Grinch makes him the most Grinch that has ever Grinched

Tabaxi Driud Sarah

This might be the most I've seen Murph get razzed in a while. Exasperated Murph never fails to be comedy gold.

Tommy McGlone

poor old ever-suffering Murph

Hamerin

They should definitely watch the live action horror movie about the Grinch called The Mean One

Please Dont Look at Me

I understand why Murph is so worked up in this one because I tried to watch the special last night to prepare and I absolutely could not get through it. It's only half an hour with the commercials too. And I watched MULTIPLE episodes of the DKC cartoon from the 90s

GGCoopie

DRAG THEM MURPH 👏👏👏

Aidan Boyle

ROM The Space Knight is actually incredibly important to the Marvel universe. Rogue from the X-Men became a good guy because she touched ROM and absorbed his sense of justice

Cohen Scoggins

https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/s/QSRgbgdFub Saw this map the other day, feels like Mischief night might only be a New Jersey (and Connecticut I guess) thing

Kate

Apparently working in a comic shop during high school completely skewed my idea of which characters people know because my thoughts during the entire ROM bit was "yeah, ROM the Spaceknight, obviously. Everyone's heard of ROM. Wait, why are they confused? Wait! How old am I!?"

Sarah Osgood

Lmao. Murph screaming 'they don't estABLISH that!!!!" made me snort while teleworking in the library

xatlern

The edition of Clue that they showed in the commercial is the one that my family had growing up. I knew it was old, but I don't know if I realized it was *that* old

Garrett Durham

Jake being surprised about Dr suess makes sense because no one refers to Grinch by his Government name “Jim Carrey’s Dr. Seuss’s the Grinch”

Shane C

Apparently this won an Emmy

mail daddy

Murph recognizing an actor from MF DOOM tracks, Caldwell dropping a Jujutsu Kaisen reference, and the whole crew getting ROM-pilled. I love this show

Miranda B

Murph got gray hairs from this one 😂

sabertruth19

Now need pic of EmMurph with Murph in “First Class Grinch” shirt and Em in “Worthy of First Class Grinching” shirt. Also good Christmas show apparel for the whole crew! And so glad that we’ve finally found out the truth about Man of Stone Murph-just really explains the depth of affinity for dwarves and additional meaning for The Rock’s appearance in a desert spirit vision. So solid.

thatoneguy

I notice that noise tends to be a big factor in the Grinch Grinching it up. I think we're just looking at an autistic man with sensory issues and a skin/fur condition.

James Flannery

Emily, I grew up relatively close to where you did. We certainly did not have "Mischief Night". That stuff was just lumped into Halloween for us.

Harrison Cordle

So hyped to see someone fall in love with Rom live. Cosmic Marvel characters can be super rich and interesting.

Lee

I had a Merlin toy when I was younger (‘02 baby) and I was obsessed with it for long car rides. I didn’t know how to play the games so I had to learn on the fly lmao

Nia R

This is my favorite mixed bag…the chaos energy is amazing

Kevin Weitz

Absolutely wild timing on this- I just received an email from a local restaurant called “The White Rabbit Gastropub” that they’re having a “Brunch with The Grinch” on 12/1. NADDpod’s influence on the culture continues to amaze!

Steph

Love this ep so much omg

Douglas Galdamez

I figured out how we can for sure get a grinch campaign. Just keep making Murph watch bad grinch movies/special to a point that we then challenge/razz him to make a better grinch story and run it as a campaign. Boom profit

Nicole Jordan

Grinch night is the Great Pumpkin the belief makes it real

Rylee

This might be the most on the rails the crew has ever been. Pretty much every minute of this ep is solely talking about Grinch Night💀💀 good job?

Andrew Janney

Thank you for this new episode of “Making Murph Upset”. I loved all of it

Hammy

I’m with Murph. Besides the animation freak out at the end, this special sucks. The only emotion it stirred in me is sadness for an abused dog.

ABigdude

I needed a good Murph freak out episode. The grinch is just a bonus….

Kork Horf

Murph shouting out MF DOOM and you know he said it in all caps

Ben

"It's Grinch Night" won a Primetime Emmy. I think Jake was right, Murph just didn't get it.

Veronika

Brian’s right, this is awful

Ben Herman

This is an all-timer for sure. Also I watched the special, and it felt like it was rubbing my brain with sandpaper

Glenn Dowdle

This was one of the most watchable things they've watched. That being said it was still pretty bad but had its moments.

Zach Jewell

This special is so fucking boring oh my gods. The only draw is dog abuse wth

Kal. Just Kal.

You guys probably have already seen it but one of my favorite movies growing up was the Clue movie and I recently watched a documentary about the making of it and it just made me love it more. I’m not even mentioning it so you do it as a mixed bag, I just think the movie slaps and you’d enjoy it

Joe K

This is peak comedy

Hrishi Venkatesh

ROM men triumph when ROM men do nothing

Nate Stosius

This is an absolute classic Murph Yeller™️

9on

39:27 is endlessly replayable

Borgar

ROM v MurphBot is what the world needs right now tbh

Joseph Christodoulou

For future content, I think it would be fun if you 4 did a college humor-esque video, but as NADDPOD. I know in the past, you’ve commented on how some thought everything about the show was scripted, so making fun of that would be funny. Imagining Jake messing up a line & then Murph going ballistic on him makes me laugh 😂

Stephen Charbonneau

(ROM SPOILERS) They’re going to be devastated to learn that all the ROM Knights die in the lead up to Secret Wars

Katie Wilde
>>154114224

What's so great though is how specific and siloed his intense frustration is. Like, he'll go fully OFF on his opinion, but the second someone cracks a zingy joke - even if the theme of it is in contradiction to his point, he SO easily laughs at it with FULL untainted joy. That ability - to hold true to your authentic position without making it your identity, nor letting it diminish your love of your wife and friends, is the strength of character we should all aspire to. (I'm slightly uncomfortable with how sincere I'm being, lol... I feel as if surrounded by sentient eyebrows.)

ACK

As a warhammer 40000 fan, very surprised to hear about the true background of the war between the men of iron and the men of stone.

Zach Jewell

I do agree with Murph that this "Halloween" "special" sucks, but I also think that Emily and Caldwell have touched on something really interesting with the religious themes they read in the film. It might legitimately be worth exploring religious themes in this piece of media through a lens of critical theory.

Angela Lowney

I love a Murph meltdown. A “Murphdown” if you will.

ODIN

"The grinches domain expansion" 😂

Cooper Erikson

Ok paused and watched it and I'm back. Not sure what my brain just witnessed.

Derek Smith

I don't know what Murph was upset about. That was an absolute classic. True cinema. They truly don't make them like they used to.

Laura !

i was telling my family about this episode and halfway through my mom interrupts me to reveal that she knows about this halloween special because she rented the vhs from the library for my brother and i all the time and my brother broke out into a song from it but i was too young and have no memory of it. thanks two crew you brought my fam together

Beau Rydman

Murph I understand what you are saying but explicitly in Sleepy Hollow there is a few times where the Headless Horseman doesn’t attack the people right in front of him while they try to buy time. It’s like one of the big questions

K. Diane

I got 12 minutes in thinking this was a surprise round and you all were improvising a review of a Halloween Grinch film before realizing this is actually a real movie.

Crescent Minor
>>154360745

That question has an answer: he's not a real ghost, it's a trick by the town's Gaston. This story contains no reason at all that Grinch was ineffectual. It's incompatible with the fearful way he's being treated and is never even implied to have an explanation. To cite Sleepy Hollow as a good excuse for this suggests that you find both equally illogical, which is a failure to see the sense in Sleepy.

Beau Rydman
>>154360745

I knew the question had an answer I wasn’t gonna spoil it just cause I had happened to watch it for the first time on Halloween. I agree the grinch sounds like shit. I just was remarking on the humor of comparing the two when there is a legit scene of Ichabod buying time cause he isn’t the target

Jack G

ROMhead here with a Spaceknight Fun Fact: one of Rom’s most memorable team-ups was with The Thing in Marvel Two-in-One #99. The Ever-Lovin’ Blue Eyed Thing’s rocky transformation and ROM’s metal cyborg shell made them a fun team, so I propose that Murph’s stony exterior would actually make him a better teammate to ROM than an enemy

Ben Helford

Honestly, I was charmed by both the cartoon and the 70's commercials.

Michael Beck

Fun fact Halloween is Grinch night won an Emmy

Taylor Culbertson

I think that the grinch is an introvert, he came out when everybody was inside. Then went home when the weather died down and people would most likely come outside.

EmperorGreed

Rom The Space Knight was a sick comic, even if the toy was lame

Natural Dragon

I have a vivid memory from 2nd grade where my teacher played this movie for my class around Halloween. One girls family forbid her from watching it. She had to go out in the hall while we watched it. Her parents were super religious and didn’t want her influenced by this “devil” film. Even in second grade I felt so bad for her.

Mynne Maxine

I dressed up as the Grinch for my birthday (oct 28) and went to universal studios. Rocked my duck team shirt too. Love you guys

Olaf The Snowman

I'm only 23, but I loved playing with my dads old Merlin. Legit it was and is a fun toy, would recommend

Rain Elizabeth

I completely forgot I owned this VHS tape and watched all the time as a kid. And I just slowly remembered this entire special

rice crispy

murph not understanding how everyone else had a good time -regardless of the content quality- is always the funniest part

Z

been having a pretty rough week and rougher day and this episode turned it around and got me laughing 💛

Drayser

Sorry murph but it was actually very good as a first time watcher of it. Very charming
