In this heartfelt episode of Wise_N_Nerdy, Joe is joined by the delightful Scott Moore and Rilo W. Ward for another fun-filled and thought-provoking discussion.The episode kicks off with the standard Question of the Week: "What scene hits you hard no matter how many times you've watched it?" The hosts dive into some of the most emotional moments in film and television, discussing scenes such as Mufasa's tragic death in The Lion King, deeply touching moments from Doctor Who, and the tear-jerking sequence in The Tales of Ba Sing Se where Iroh sings Leaves From The Vine. Audience members also call in to share their own unforgettable cinematic moments that always bring the waterworks.With a roll of the dice, the show takes a hilarious turn with a litany of Bad Dad Jokes contributed by both hosts and audience members. The laughter sets the stage for the next segment, "What Are You Nerding Out About?" Scott channels his inner Kurt, expressing his love for Balatro and Slay The Spire, while Rilo eloquently praises Baldur's Gate 3. Joe, on the other hand, adores the unique and engaging story unfolding in The Apothecary Diaries.Next up, the dice lead the hosts into the "How Do I...?" segment, where they discuss how to craft a compelling backstory for an RPG character. This conversation is filled with practical advice on how to create immersive and dynamic characters that enhance the role-playing experience.The fates then bring forth the "Daddy, Tell Me A Story" segment, where the hosts nostalgically reminisce about the nerdy collectibles that got away—those rare treasures they regret not snagging when they had the chance or those that they let slip through their fingers.Finally, the episode wraps up with the "Parliament of Papas" segment, tackling the age-old debate: when does collecting cross the line into hoarding? The hosts explore the fine balance between a passionate collection and an overwhelming accumulation of stuff.No matter what you geek out about, there's a place for you here.

War is hell. Unless you're talking about Valkyria Chronicles, the much-celebrated tactics RPG by Sega. See, war is still hell in Valkyria Chronicles, but it's also very pretty and fun to play. This week, very special guest and valued Blood God Patreon contributor Vivicomplex joins Kat, Nadia, and Eric to talk about World War Anime. Protip: Just send your scouts to the front line. Ain't nbodoy getting through those rifle-toting maniacs. Also in this episode: Eric can't talk about what he's been playing because of embargos, but that's alright because hahaha Chainsaw Man goes brrrrrr. Nadia maxed out her island paradise hideaway in FFXIV. Nobody is invited to visit. Suckers. This week on Autumn of Avatar: There ain't no war in Ba Sing Se, and there never was. In the Post Show Vivi sticks around after a spirited episode of Axe of the Blood God (aren't they all) to talk a bit more about what made her fall in love with Valkyria Chronicles in the first place. The gang also talks about how their Pokemon Black and White Pantheon playthroughs are going, and there's even a bit of talk about the band PUP. Wooo oooo ooooo, ooo oooo!

In a series of shorts — or as Peter likes to call them "long TikToks" — we follow some unexpectedly low stakes adventures from the main cast. We analyze Iroh's song and past, and discuss preservation and humanity in an age of war. This is episode 34 of Avatar: The First Viewing, the podcast where two first time viewers and a series veteran watch Avatar: The Last Airbender from start to finish. We go episode by episode to recount Aang's story. If you're a fan of ATLA or The Legend of Korra — or are watching for the first time — join us as we recount the series!
Before our heroes can leave Ba Sing Se, they have a few questions they need answered—and fortunately, they have a couple imprisoned Dai Li agents they can interrogate! What will the group's next step be once they've got this new info? Ziah refreshes. Amar does some "community service". Je-Tsun is faced with his past. • • • Patreon: patreon.com/improvtabletop Twitter / Instagram / Facebook / TikTok: @ImprovTabletop Email: ImprovTabletop@gmail.com Donations: ko-fi.com/improvtabletop • • • Audio Credits ImpTab Avatar's theme song is “Marauder of the Four Elements” by Ned Wilcock.
