I could watch a podcast of just Skid telling stories about all the interesting people he's met and the degrees of separation between him and celebrities.
Troy really has become a great interviewer. Can't believe he didn't say anything reminiscent of skid is old or something. Quite possibly the most supportive I've ever seen or heard him.
I love Skid's enthusiasm for his characters. I love his imagination and variation in types of things he explores. I really waver between wanting him to be the GM (so we can get more characters done by him), and wanting him to be a player (so we can explore the full depths of a character before they have to go (RIP Pembroke)). If i could afford the Patreon money, his would be the campaign that i picked to really focus on.
Troy is spot on with silliness turning into depth about being a hallmark of the network, it's gratifying for listeners to feel that they're on the inside for whatever random joke it is
None of the other players are lacking but I was definitely in the camp of people that couldn't wait to hear about Skid's character. And a goblin! What an absolute treat we've been given!
Long time listener to the GCP and I'm absolutely loving these interview videos! More behind the scenes please! This is getting me very hyped for the new campaign.
Cgn best asset is it feels like your friends having fun. Imagination, yes and improve. Not acting melodramtic. Its your best gaming sessions, but is more than that one session we all remember.
Favorite moment from Vibes- Goldblum is in Ecuador in the jungle and going to be killed by the goon who says- “I’ll give you a break- where don’t you want to be shot?” & deadpans “South America.” Classic.
The production on these are so great id love to see a fod shot like this casual irl fod. Love you gcn fam and naish y'all bless my life in so many ways greay crew fucking amazing friendly community
These character intro videos have amazing production quality (in addition to being funny and interesting). Really really well done. I might enjoy these more even than the actual plays (gasp!)
ATTENTION SKID FANS! He has his own personal podcast: FRANCHISE FAN GUYS with his two good friends Andy and Tom. Together they discuss movie franchises and what worked vs what didn’t. There’s quite a few episodes released and I implore you all to do yourselves a favour and listen in!!!
Nice! Love a goblin. My most recent PC was a goblin articifer, 5E, Eberron setting. Also very into fire/explosions. I also had trouble reading after I quit smoking, the two were kind of tied together, but it's coming back to me.
Skid, your characters are honestly the best ever.. Matt does great things, Joe always fun, miss Grant always but I have been gripped by your stuff ever since Gelabrous and especially the monologe you did for Nestor. truly his introduction and death were then best things I have ever heard.
I love the current GCP cast. I can't wait for Gate Walkers. I would be lying, however, if I said that I didn't miss Grant. I hope all is well with him, and that he may, perhaps, show up on a show again. Maybe he can guest on a GCP live when another player can't make it. Best wishes to Troy and the gang for a successful second GCP campaign.
It sounds like Skid is playing an Oscilating Wave Psychic, and as someone who's currently playing that exact class, Skid, you're going to have a BLAST (pun intended)
I'd previously thought Troy looked enough like Christian Slater that when they brought him up it was mildly eerie. I did not realize until just now that yeah Skid does look a fair bit like Drew Carey with those glasses.
I am so sad for this little character. Stolen from his culture and family is so hard. I'm honestly really excited to see how Skid plays this character. He's so complicated and deep already.
Goblin taken by a mad scientist as a subject of his experiments (Jekyl and Hyde type)and raised like Claude Frolo did Quasi.........human, but separate from the rest of the world due to his Psychic powers that manifested as a young child. Can see the Carrie type accidents happening and the torch and pitchfork crowd chasing Skid's Goblin and "Dad" out of town. The Scientist Dad doesn't have to die, but if his character gets whisked away to join the rest of the party he has to not only get used to being around people with his abilities, but trying to act as a human person in a goblin body....with odd mannerisms to both crowds. Might be fun....
@@alltradesjack502 I don't know about all that, CR ain't my cup of tea, but I've heard they're nice folks. Though I'd agree, Skid is much more low-key and intellectually funny. He's like a James May of the role-playing world.
I have never been able to watch or listen to a full episode of CR, there’s something missing for me. Their episodes are too long, there are too many players, everyone talks over everyone else, I don’t find any of the characters or players particularly relatable. The GC crew on the other hand are always engaging, every character has something interesting to latch onto, the players are all hilarious and down-to-earth. Glass Cannon shows feel like you’re watching your friends play, whereas CR shows feel more distant to me. All these character videos are a great example of that. It really feels like we’re being included as friends. If anyone from the GCN reads this, you’re doing an incredible job.
@@threetythreepercentcritical role is a bunch of voice actors who are paid in full before even doing the show having fun they never took it seriously and we me it always showed.
Wow, a lot of negative responses to this comment. I think Skid would be an excellent guest star on CR. He's funny, reactive, and great at drawing humor out of small moments. He may be a little quiet compared to some of the more excitable members of CR, but he's no more quiet than Liam or Goth Dad. I am strongly in the naish camp for sure, but all of these people are professional actors, and I think all of them would be able to work together given the right circumstances.
This back story reminds me of the stolen generations of Australian aboriginals. They were mixed race children who were ripped from their families by the government.
I could watch a podcast of just Skid telling stories about all the interesting people he's met and the degrees of separation between him and celebrities.
I’m there!
Skid could easily launch his own podcast just talking about his life and media interests and I'd listen to every episode!
@@Saluno375 skid actually has a movie discussion podcast that he started with his good friends Andy and Tom! FRANCHISE FAN GUYS
Absolutely
100% agreed. They could call it "Skid's got some 'splainin' to do"
Skid is indeed a Glass Cannon icon! Love the Glass Cannon - the whole crew is amazing. Best gaming group on the internet by far.
Troy really has become a great interviewer. Can't believe he didn't say anything reminiscent of skid is old or something. Quite possibly the most supportive I've ever seen or heard him.
Well he did bring up his tombstone, but showed great restraint in that moment lol
Agreed! I'd happily watch the Troy version of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.
In all of these, Troy is surprising me with his humanity
Skid's characters are just banger after banger
Every character I've made for the last 3 years are Skid rip-offs. He's just the best
Really hyped for Skid's take on nature vs nurture while dropping mental napalm all over the battlefield.
Skid + goblin = immeasurable joy
I love Skid's enthusiasm for his characters. I love his imagination and variation in types of things he explores. I really waver between wanting him to be the GM (so we can get more characters done by him), and wanting him to be a player (so we can explore the full depths of a character before they have to go (RIP Pembroke)).

I'm really loving these actor deep dives. Thank you for providing such hot tent!
I honestly look up to Skid as a human being. He is so kind and true to his nerdy self and he is my role model!
Skid always has the right vibes. I believe in him. Can't wait for the next season!
Can't wait to see/hear Skid in action. He brings life to every role effortlessly.
Skid's psychic reminds me of Sparky Sparky Boom Man / Combustion Man, from Avatar the Last Airbender.
None of the other players are lacking but I was definitely in the camp of people that couldn't wait to hear about Skid's character. And a goblin! What an absolute treat we've been given!
Skid’s a legend.
I read house of leaves! It is a beast…not for the faint of heart to endure. Great concept, laborious read.
I found myself skipping the current day sections on first read! Now I enjoy them but it’s an acquired taste!
The book is a labrynth to read about people exploring a labrynth. I highly recommend it as an immersive read.
Long time listener to the GCP and I'm absolutely loving these interview videos! More behind the scenes please! This is getting me very hyped for the new campaign.
King of All Nerds Himself!!
Sidenote, the image quality on these is superb!
Skid might be my fav person ever of all time ever
Been waiting for this one!!! Let's go
The Legend himself 🙌 what a cast for this campaign, I'm so excited!

House of Leaves is my favorite book! Super excited now.

Much appreciated!
High five to the Saskatchewan shout out!!! Now bring a live show!
Skid has great hair. He could play Reed Richards
Skid is the goddamned best! SO excited for this character. So...Troy... DO NOT KILL HIM SESSION 1! haha
skid actually has a movie discussion podcast that he started with his good friends Andy and Tom! FRANCHISE FAN GUYS
Love it Skid! I currently play an Orc Psychic and I love how it plays.
I loved watching these. I really appreciate how you guys always make everyone in the naish a part of your life! I'm super stoked for this new podcast!
So are we!
ATTENTION SKID FANS! He has his own personal podcast: FRANCHISE FAN GUYS with his two good friends Andy and Tom. Together they discuss movie franchises and what worked vs what didn’t.
There’s quite a few episodes released and I implore you all to do yourselves a favour and listen in!!!
Troy blasted through that marg!
I am part of the Vibes community and I am deeply excited to see your best Cyndi Lauper impression
Nice! Love a goblin. My most recent PC was a goblin articifer, 5E, Eberron setting. Also very into fire/explosions.
I also had trouble reading after I quit smoking, the two were kind of tied together, but it's coming back to me.
Skid, your characters are honestly the best ever.. Matt does great things, Joe always fun, miss Grant always but I have been gripped by your stuff ever since Gelabrous and especially the monologe you did for Nestor. truly his introduction and death were then best things I have ever heard.
also fyi I am from southeast Saskatchwan
oh hell yeah! Skid is playing my favorite class!
I love Skid so much.
He's Chaney AND Lugosi with a sprinkle of Karloff and a smidge of Lee. I hope he's been practicing a Goblin cackle.
Definitely much anticipated
I love the current GCP cast. I can't wait for Gate Walkers. I would be lying, however, if I said that I didn't miss Grant. I hope all is well with him, and that he may, perhaps, show up on a show again. Maybe he can guest on a GCP live when another player can't make it.
Best wishes to Troy and the gang for a successful second GCP campaign.
I'm trying to imagine a psychic reference that Skid would be an expert at and I keep coming up with the 1988 classic Cindy Lauper movie Vibes.
Love ya skid
Blood of the Wild is one of my favorite series of yours. So cool to hear how proud you are of that show! ❤
Skid = National Treasure
Skid is the best!
The moment Skid mentioned he once played a goblin psychic you could see the wheels turning in Troy's head that said, "...and now he's my NPC."
First thing I thought of when skid said goblin psychic was Joe Pesci. I can't wait for Skid's take! 😆
It sounds like Skid is playing an Oscilating Wave Psychic, and as someone who's currently playing that exact class, Skid, you're going to have a BLAST (pun intended)
I just finished House of Leaves! Skid is the best of all of us
Skid stopped reading because the goblin instincts kicked in. Letters steal your thoughts!!!
Psychic goblin? A mind goblin, you might say? How appropriate!
I'd previously thought Troy looked enough like Christian Slater that when they brought him up it was mildly eerie. I did not realize until just now that yeah Skid does look a fair bit like Drew Carey with those glasses.
Skid is one of the best players I've listened to
I am so sad for this little character. Stolen from his culture and family is so hard. I'm honestly really excited to see how Skid plays this character. He's so complicated and deep already.
In my head all goblins sound like Skid's goblins, so this will be amazing

Might be fun....
Thanks for that, that was nice. Now your time is over Joe. Time to get your jawn together ;)
Let’s gooooooooooooooooo!
I dunno man, isn’t a House of Leaves / Cyndi Lauper’s Vibes mash-up kinda obvious?
Sounds amazing.
HOUSE OF LEAVES!? I mean hell, you had me at Cindy Lauper...
Damn, I really want to have a beer with Skid!
Is this going to be a podcast or video on TH-cam?
I’m one of the 6 Vibes fans
I think there were 9 of us last year at Vibecon.
Skiiiiiiiiiiid!
I secretly hope you all rolled for initiative to determine the order of the videos and that Joe rolled a 3. I can hear the table being slammed now
Well I'm gonna go watch Vibes I guess.
So basically this goblin is from The Blind Side
I know the two are kind of rivals, but I think Critical Roll needs to have Skid guest star on an episode or two. It would be amazing.
He wouldn't fit in with that crew. He's too human, likable, organically funny, grounded, humble.... all the things they aren’t basically
@@alltradesjack502 I don't know about all that, CR ain't my cup of tea, but I've heard they're nice folks.

Okay, guess on character inspiration: Broo from Marvel Comics.
Could Skid be any cooler? Seems like it would be such a blast to just sit around and listen to him tell stories.
I miss Pembroke
Don't. Pisss. Off. The Carrie Goblin.
I'm looking forward to tomorrow's episode when try is finally shit faced and is slurring his words interviewing Joe 😂
This series is awesome. Video quality is amazing. But, Troy is going to be pissed with those barely noticeable mic crackles.
Skid character, sponsored by Micheal Bay
Did you look up "really old actors" just to tease Skid?
Unfortunate sunburn!

Not Brooklyn
Skids going goblin mode!
