LAURA: Thanks, Sam! |
SAM: No. Welcome, new viewers. Every week– or |
many weeks, I am charged with writing the ad for |
the sponsor of that week. I did this one way back |
in mid-December, so it’ll feel a little stale. |
(laughter) |
SAM: Sorry. I didn’t have time to write a new one. |
Apologies to our sponsor. But our second sponsor |
tonight is Backblaze. They offer unlimited cloud |
backup for Macs and PCs. You can restore from the |
web or via hard drive. They’ll even overnight |
FedEx a drive to you, and because it’s Christmas |
season, I wrote this. ‘Twas the night before |
Critmas when I clicked on my mouse, but the drive |
wasn’t whirring; it had said 'Adi-ouse’. When up |
from the cloud there arose such a sight, I knew in |
a flash that my shit was all right. As I spat out |
my plate of cold chicken kiev, down my chimney |
came a weird little elf named Lev. I said, “Whoa, |
whoa, whoa, how’d you get in my place?” Lev gave |
me a wink and punched me in the face. And suddenly |
he fired up a pipe and started to restore my |
computer from a backup he carted. My documents, |
like slash fiction from My Little Pony. My photos, |
like me naked, covered in bologna. He mumbled that |
you can get backed up at once for a merry little |
fee of $5 a month-s. You even get 15 days free if |
you scroll over to backblaze.com/criticalrole. And |
just like that, my computer was on. Lev greased up |
his body, and bam, he was gone. But I heard him |
exclaim, “Peace out, yo, whassup! Happy Backblaze |
to all, don’t forget to back up!” |
(cheering) |
SAM: I’ll write another one for Easter, I |
promise. |
(laughter) |
MATT: Thank you, Sam. So thank you, Backblaze. |
Happy to have you for our sponsor tonight as well. |
Also, as a heads-up, we’ve had our friends at |
Wyrmwood for a while have been awesomely providing |
Wyrmwood dice boxes and dice trays and dice towers |
to give away to people in the community. They have |
new boxes for all the players in the new campaign. |
And they have been working on something for a |
while for us to kick off the new campaign. They |
made us a new table. If we can go to a camera view |
of this table they made for the campaign. |
(cheering) |
MATT: It’s made out of English brown oak, the |
center Critical Role inlay is made of ash burl, is |
the background, and then rosewood for the d20 |
outline, wenge for the Critical Role words |
themselves, and silver stringing around the |
border. It was built by hand in their |
Massachusetts office and workshop, and it was |
hand-rubbed oil on a wax finish. Over a hundred |
hours were put into this table. They did an |
incredible job, and we’re super honored to have |
that here, and thank you guys for showing such an |
awesome appreciation for what we do. |
SAM: It smells really nice. |
LAURA: We have cubbies! |
MARISHA: It smells like wood in the studio, like |
fresh wood. |
