Transcript: Fjord’s inner fears – TM for CR C2 Ep61

This is the longest Talks Machina transcript I've put together (it's 14 pages), and it's only half the good stuff: Beau's answers were also excellent. This is the absolute best of what Talks can be: Travis spilled absolutely everything about the subtext of Fjord and what's been going on in his mind as he panics. … Continue reading Transcript: Fjord’s inner fears – TM for CR C2 Ep61 →

I feel extremely called out, Brian w. Foster, but you're not wrong. Here's your alligators eating babies transcript.

Transcript: The story Matt wants to tell – TM 2019-04-09 for CR C2 Ep057

A major theme of this Talks episode was the narratives Matt does and doesn't want to tell. He talked about why he doesn't want to kill the pets, doesn't want Nott to be rejected, doesn't want to end the campaign from poor choices, and wants light in the darkness to inspire. Sam said Matt is … Continue reading Transcript: The story Matt wants to tell – TM 2019-04-09 for CR C2 Ep057 →

Transcript: Caduceus’ reaction to the romance novel reading – TM for CR C2 Ep50 0:36:36

This answer tells us a few things about Clay. It's clear he knows sex is a thing, enough to know a colloquialism for it. Which suggests his knowledge isn't textbook. Meaning he's not just sheltered. You don't pick up the word hanky-panky from people instructing you what sex is for the sole purpose of telling … Continue reading Transcript: Caduceus’ reaction to the romance novel reading – TM for CR C2 Ep50 0:36:36 →

This wasn’t the answer on Caduceus’ sexuality I was hoping for, but I’m so grateful for it. Taliesin knows what this means to people, and he wants to make sure he has time and space to explore it properly rather than give a short, incomplete answer. “We’re not there yet, but definitely…” He wants to … Continue reading Transcript: Taliesin hints as Caduceus’ sexuality and discusses Fjord’s “bad decision” – TM for CR C2 Ep41 1:04:07 →

Transcript: How Molly uses appearance to assess people, Talks Machina C2 Ep 6 0:20:50

Taliesin chose to play a tiefling because he “wanted a comfortable outsider.” (TM 2018-01-16 0:34:49) Tieflings are already visibly, inescapably marked by their infernal heritage. In Western society, tattoos and piercings (especially lots of them) have long been regarded as outside polite society. Molly’s body modification signals that he’s leaning into outsider status and a … Continue reading Transcript: How Molly uses appearance to assess people, Talks Machina C2 Ep 6 0:20:50 →
