Dear Black the Mold. I and many others have thoroughly enjoyed your Cold Bakes and Dad Hampers pod cast. I write this in hopes the next time your room is as hot as your takes, you will revitalize this series once more. Amen.
Mondays are never going to be the same. Thanks for the Podcast and I can’t wait to see it come back. Enjoy your time away from it- your short form content is still going hard!!! Proud to be a bolder
Dear Mr. Bold, as you have now decided to take a break for being bad and bold. I wanted to express my gratitude for your supply of psychotic rants for us proud bolders. I will also have to exceed the two drink minimum today. Kind regards
Sad that it's already over for now. Already can't wait untill season 2 of the podcast 🗣 A ONE HUNDRED SEASONS ,A ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF BOLD TAKES AND BAD TEMPERS METTA GAMERS 🗣
Winter makes Zach's temper cool down. He can't keep his fiery reputation if he films thru the winter. (I've never been in LA for the winter but it's getting chilly in the Bay)
Well I've watched every podcast episode and I haven't commented yet 😅 I had started watching D&D videos again because I was going to be playing for the first time in 10 years and the algorithm was showing me your shorts. Then I saw you had started a podcast. You soon became a Tuesday morning (I'm in the UK) ritual, inspiring me and hyping me up for the first session! Which was a few days ago, so happy to be back 🙂 Thanks for the rants, laughs and aggressively pointing at us!
😢Oh no! Although the short-form comedy is how I found you, and I will always enjoy the effort those goes into making high-quality consumables... these long-form podcasts really satiated a niche that I feel is now going to be left vacant. It was fun to just hear your thoughts on the mundane and hear you shoot-the-breeze for an hour. Hope this makes a comeback by popular demand!
Sincerely, gratefully, thank you so much for the insight and all the content that you brought for this. It was heat and I don't just mean the wings. The fact that you're finding new ways to grow and branch out makes me really excited to see where things go, and I'm sure my fellow BOLDERS out there feel the same way. What energy you bring EMBOLDENS me and you're a breath of fresh air, genuinely.
You don't like big words? Let's make it worse .... I hath most exuberantly partaken in the gratification of thy illustrious creations, particularly thy vehement diatribes upon the venerable game of Dungeons and Dragons-they incite uncontainable merriment! With much anticipation, I doth await their forthcoming resurgence anon. In this interim, I am overcome with fervent enthusiasm to behold whatsoever prodigious and protracted compositions thou shalt present unto us for the remainder of this annum. Indeed, thou art a most estimable gentleman, and I am exceedingly elated to have declared my subscription with utmost conviction. Pray, continue thy laudable endeavors with unceasing vigor, good sir, for you are one of great verbosity and dramatic flair! ONWARD AND UPWARD! UP AND OUT! RAISE RISE UP DRAKKAR NOIR!
I just started watching a few episodes ago but I had been enjoying each podcast. Sad to see it going on hiatus, but I'm hoping it comes back next year. Mentioning the tapeworm episode of mr meaty was such a throwback lol.
When you touched onto market8ng in your storytelling medium, it really reminded me about the transmedia storytelling section we had in my screenwriting course. Bridging multiple mediums and engaging your audience in meta involvement etc
Saddest I have been in a long time because of this. An amazing episode, literally had me laughing out loud at the end. I just finished the episode and I already miss your rambling. Thank you for all the amazing content. Railroading in. Bolder out.
Man, I appreciate the pain you put yourself through, for the sake of entertainment; those last few wings clearly got you good. The rapid-fire Q&A was hilarious. Thanks for 10 episodes of solid pod, and I'll be looking forward to your future projects!
While I'm sad to reach the end of the current podcasts I am glad I watched to the end JUST to hear you say Larry from Vegetable Tales - that's the funniest shit I've ever heard and it's a great selection for a dream table
I haven't had time to listen to the podcast but I plan on going through it soon. The first episode was really funny and I look forward to listening to the rest. I hope you continue to create more content that entertains and inspires both you and future listeners. Ty Zach!
End of the podcast has me stunned; this is a 2 and a half drink event. Thankyou for the rants so far, love the well balanced intellectualism you bring to ttrpg's as a whole.
Bro no way you mentioned Uberhaxornova! James is the best and I can totally see from his GTA RP and other videos that he would be a GREAT DnD player. Also Thanks for the Podcast episodes man I cant wait to see what kind of content you come up with next!
I'm excited for the return whenever you've gained a sense for the new edition and any issues it'll inevitably have. Other than that, hoping for other long form comment you have energy for. Maybe some module reviews? Or even adventures into other RPGs.
What a 10 episode arc. We started as PS2 Kratos, armed with our dunce hat and two drink minimum and ended as 2022 kratos wiser, calmer and with a message of love, creativity and the strength to stand up for yourself Love you Smack the Fold. Appreciate you not stretching out the pod past it's natural life
Sad to see this pod go, was really enjoying it. But stoked for you to be able to make the content you want to make! Looking forward to whatever comes next
DMing, I have often ran into the The "where do you go?" Predicament. But I am by in large running games for new players, their first TTRPG experience and I want them to feel that they are driving the story.
what am i going to look forward to every monday now😔 i understand ur reasons tho!! this podcast could never get stale for the real ones though🫡 my d&d campaign with my friends is about to end and i’m coping by absorbing as much d&d content as i possibly can, so im gonna miss the long form content and ranting!! we’ll be here waiting for you mr. bold 🫡
man I am going to miss this series but I can understand this decision. There is no reason to keep series just for sake of keeping it. You had a plan, a project, a take, you made it and its time to move on. Thanks for all the interesting stories and answers it was very interesting to know you better and learn from your experience. Good luck with future endeavours and Life in general, peace
The martial caster divide comes down to the effects of higher level spells, especially at tier 3 and 4. The martial characters class abilities are matched up against spell casters class abilities but martials have no way to bridge the gap on spell effects on high level spells. So unless they start implementing additional abilities to martials in later levels that can mimic high level spells, the divide will always be there at those tiers of play.
For the flavor thing, a player i'm playing with is doing something similar: they are playing a barbarian with a noble (princess) background who is just very melancholy and listless most of the time, and her rages were instead of anger her just going full teenager "who cares", and as such were called 'Ennui' instead. it was always funny to hear what they had to say in a whiny voice leading into it about why they are going to be angsty and apathetic.
19:59 Exactly what I was saying. From firsthand experience, I've only gotten negative comments from anything I've tried to share on r/DnD. I've gotten a criticism where someone suggested the Feat I made could be an Epic Boon, but that's the only nice thing I've gotten. D&D and Reddit don't mix. On a Website that lives off of demoralizing others, a Game about creativity and playing how you want to play is antithetical to what Reddit is.
Dear Zap the Chode I've watched every single one, love the energy. I'm sure your other long form stuff will be just as fun to listen to while I slave away at my mandatory currency generating task that I require for food and shelter. All the best, much love from the boys. (We are the first to claim this title and the rest of you are imposters who wish that they were THE boys) Sincerely, The Boys
Listen as Random Viewer #7562. Just know I would've kept watching these so if you ever change your mind. Me and I'm sure many others will be ready to listen. But also I look forward to your future endeavors. You got this Zac The Bowl 😉. Note to self find a new hobby for Monday Afternoons.
gonna push back on the magic vs martial thing in terms of consistency when it comes to damage output. cantrips are the caster's answer to consistency martials get to do that 2dwhatever with extra attack at lvl 5, all cantrips increase damage at level 5. fighters continue ti grow i that was but a 4d10 fire bolt is still not bad. defo not as fun but still useful, esp when you factor in secondary effects on cantrips.
You should do guests on and debate each other/discuss kinda like dimension20 does! I think it would be really cool for a monthly or bi monthly video where you to feature another creator that you enjoy (for instance I think a collab with xptolvl3 would make a great video) where you guys just hang out and answer questions together. That way we can still get our fill of mr bold and maybe it helps with you feeling like your saying the same things over and over
Sad news but understandable. There are too many channels that continue to make content past the point of having anything meaningful to say. Looking forward to the day another one of these pops up in my feed.
Can’t believe bro came back to say he’s not coming back
Btw the assuage is pronounced ah-swayj. To make less intense
Dear Black the Mold. I and many others have thoroughly enjoyed your Cold Bakes and Dad Hampers pod cast. I write this in hopes the next time your room is as hot as your takes, you will revitalize this series once more. Amen.
Amen
Amen
Amen
Amen

D&D Jerma speed running retirement arc
So glad Google translated this comment for me
Mondays are never going to be the same. Thanks for the Podcast and I can’t wait to see it come back. Enjoy your time away from it- your short form content is still going hard!!!
Proud to be a bolder
it was a good 2 months
I’m sure the heated opinions will build up in his soul and he’ll pop up every now and then

Dear Mr. Bold,
as you have now decided to take a break for being bad and bold. I wanted to express my gratitude for your supply of psychotic rants for us proud bolders. I will also have to exceed the two drink minimum today. Kind regards
Sad that it's already over for now. Already can't wait untill season 2 of the podcast 🗣 A ONE HUNDRED SEASONS ,A ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF BOLD TAKES AND BAD TEMPERS METTA GAMERS 🗣
As Bolders we say goodbye. As Bolders we wait. As railroaders we will return.
37:39 last episode and drops the hardest piece of advice and pep talk I've ever heard. I'm taking this to heart man
Winter makes Zach's temper cool down. He can't keep his fiery reputation if he films thru the winter. (I've never been in LA for the winter but it's getting chilly in the Bay)
Quick! Do a global warming!
@aguy3129 causing global catastrophe just so we can hear Zach spit fire about Princes of the Apocalypse
Well I've watched every podcast episode and I haven't commented yet 😅

Thumbnail is fire hell yeah
I almost took over Bulgaria when you didn’t upload
Looking forward to your next stuff, internet funnyman! Carry on.
Nooooooo I didn't watch full way yet but FAIR WELL! NOOO come back soon please

Its so over

Loved the pod and can't wait to see what comes next! Whatever it is I hope it's just as bold and sweaty :]
I’ve been a proud Bolder for the past episodes. Couldn’t be prouder. Until you drop another 🫡
Damn man, this is the only podcast i´ve been able to watch, and even look forward to, since podcasts started. Love you, keep rockin
I haven't had time to listen to the podcast but I plan on going through it soon. The first episode was really funny and I look forward to listening to the rest. I hope you continue to create more content that entertains and inspires both you and future listeners. Ty Zach!
If you thought Zach was sweaty in the previous podcasts out boi is shiny today.
Love the pod, gonna miss it while the hiatus lasts
Loved the lightning round at the end.
End of the podcast has me stunned; this is a 2 and a half drink event.
Thankyou for the rants so far, love the well balanced intellectualism you bring to ttrpg's as a whole.

You’re a legend Zach! Thanks!
What a 10 episode arc. We started as PS2 Kratos, armed with our dunce hat and two drink minimum and ended as 2022 kratos wiser, calmer and with a message of love, creativity and the strength to stand up for yourself
Love you Smack the Fold. Appreciate you not stretching out the pod past it's natural life
Awesome Job struggling through those wings! Great job, and I commend you on still reading and commenting! GOOD JOB, I salute you! o7
very happy with where the podcast went. had a ton of fun with it and I'm excited for you to do whatever you want with it in the future
This was awesome!!! Can't wait to see whats next!
Sad to see this pod go, was really enjoying it. But stoked for you to be able to make the content you want to make! Looking forward to whatever comes next
love seeing how far you have been going this year, keep up the great work Zach! cant wait for more content!
Best episode so far, very fun and hit everything it needed to
Good for you zach! Looking forward to fire shorts🔥
OOO when the heat kicked in!!!! LOL Great ending, and will see ya in the next venture :D
The tapeworm episode in mr. meaty changed me on a fundamental level and to hear another person even mention its existence feels so validating
incredible video dude, i was laughing so hard at the end, really excited to see what you do next
The uberhaxornova comment got me. Absolutely love James
DMing, I have often ran into the The "where do you go?" Predicament. But I am by in large running games for new players, their first TTRPG experience and I want them to feel that they are driving the story.
This was incredible. Takes so hot I got second hand heartburn.
Seeing you fight for your life with cuphead music in the background was peak, gonna miss this for sure
Thanks for all the hot takes and even bolder decisions haha ive loved every second!!
Cant wait to see what else you produce! Goodluck!!
The uberhaxornova pull was wild and lovely
what am i going to look forward to every monday now😔 i understand ur reasons tho!! this podcast could never get stale for the real ones though🫡 my d&d campaign with my friends is about to end and i’m coping by absorbing as much d&d content as i possibly can, so im gonna miss the long form content and ranting!! we’ll be here waiting for you mr. bold 🫡

was so sad when last monday there was no podcast and now no more?? i could cry. thanks for awesome hours of inane rantings!
Loved the podcast while it happened. Hope you come back soon!
19:59 Exactly what I was saying.

Thanks for going bold, mr Hair.
Dear Zap the Chode I've watched every single one, love the energy. I'm sure your other long form stuff will be just as fun to listen to while I slave away at my mandatory currency generating task that I require for food and shelter.
All the best, much love from the boys.
(We are the first to claim this title and the rest of you are imposters who wish that they were THE boys)
Sincerely,
The Boys
The Bad, the Brave, and the Bold
For what it's worth, you prepared us for this, so I'm not actually all that sad. But I'm still crossing my fingers for the occasional episode!
I can't believe he said he's never ever gonna ever make long form content ever again for 1000 years 😢😢😢
Listen as Random Viewer #7562. Just know I would've kept watching these so if you ever change your mind. Me and I'm sure many others will be ready to listen. But also I look forward to your future endeavors. You got this Zac The Bowl 😉. Note to self find a new hobby for Monday Afternoons.
😢can’t wait for this to come back
Damn I didn't expect to hear uberhaxornova on this podcast, what a throwback.
I will never recover from this abandonment
gonna push back on the magic vs martial thing in terms of consistency when it comes to damage output. cantrips are the caster's answer to consistency martials get to do that 2dwhatever with extra attack at lvl 5, all cantrips increase damage at level 5. fighters continue ti grow i that was but a 4d10 fire bolt is still not bad. defo not as fun but still useful, esp when you factor in secondary effects on cantrips.
sad to see the hiatus on the podcast but i'm super excited for whatever you decide to do in the future!
Thank you Mr. Bold o7
best episode yet, enjoy the hiatus!
0:46 not a prob boss. good things are worth waiting for ❤
It was painful to watch you eat these last few wings, but also kinda hilarious! Farewell to the first season!
Boom Boom Rocket was a deep cut, I missed that game. Played the demo so much it was burned into my screen as a child.
The Tape Worm episode of Mister Meaty's is such a powerful phrase
We got to see the towel one last time. It was nice while it lasted GG.
End of season 1. can't wait for season 2.
I’m gonna be so mad at you Zach, how dare you get rid of the best podcast of all time.
You should do guests on and debate each other/discuss kinda like dimension20 does! I think it would be really cool for a monthly or bi monthly video where you to feature another creator that you enjoy (for instance I think a collab with xptolvl3 would make a great video) where you guys just hang out and answer questions together. That way we can still get our fill of mr bold and maybe it helps with you feeling like your saying the same things over and over
Thank you for the rants. I will look forward to the day you return to ranting again but until then, keep up the amazing work!
It is a sad day today, but can’t wait for it to come back
love you zack, see you soon..
Ah yes. Larry from Vegetable tales. Best DM in the business.
Excited for this thumbnail
Sad news but understandable. There are too many channels that continue to make content past the point of having anything meaningful to say. Looking forward to the day another one of these pops up in my feed.
zach the bold whimper audio goes crazy
Now this was a spicy video 🤭
Elite Beat Agents is a DEEP CUT reference
Sad because Im not a fan of short form content, I get it's popular, but I enjoy this podcast and longer videos 100x more. Sad to see this go so soon
BOLDER 4 LYFE
Still waiting for your actual play where you DM
the dnd krammer podcast is great, hope the hiatus is not that long
The takes were spicier than the wings.
the way you gave up halfway through saying brennan lee mullian first was incredibly fun
Going off on the technical difficulty segment was peak.
This series has a 10 episode maximum.
Will await the return 🙏
Larry from Vegetable Tales is crazy to say out loud lol
I'm that person who can't stand eating sounds, so thank you.
this ep taught me that i despise man whimpering audios
I’m gonna miss this guy yelling about how hard it is to make tik toks while I am putting down my 600th shingle
