Obligatory "I love authentic interactions" joke for the post-show! Please don't worry about slipping up on the rules. Good to see them corrected and fixed when spotted in session - it's a collaborative experience and you're all doing your bit to play fair - but you can cut yourself some slack on this, there's more than enough to remember already and we get that. You're all doing GREAT

I love that Ben is already so engrossed in the lore he’s asking about the ramifications of the gods being dead in the very first after show.

I feel so privileged that this was the first time for many of you to use minis while playing! Also the discourse for future sessions in describing for the podcast audience. And the way Morgan evolved for the DM throughout the session, just shows the power of party dynamics! We love Morgan in this household!

Loved the first episode, and so glad that you’re all taking the time to breathe after a session and chat about how you’re feeling about the session and story. See you all in a week!!!

It feels so cool to "get in on the ground floor" of an Actual Play of a D&D campaign!

Comments for the glorious algorithm!

I love that Dolly and “I” are both chaos gremlins in the making and on the same side of the table. 😂

Thank you guys again for this first episode! Everyone did amazingly, and as a player-recently-turned-DM, Harry, superb job [claps]. This world absolutely sings. Taking bets on who'll derail Harry first by befriending/taming/seducing a boss and turn it into a pet.

Honestly, a great "inbetween" series of episodes to have. Makes it all feel more close to home, you know? Getting to see everyone's thoughts and (pardon me) authentic interactions makes it less of a show and more of a shared experience, in the best way possible. Will be looking forward to both the main episodes and these!

this kind of post show is must-have! hope Doug will drop the line "wind's howling" somewhere on the road LOL

I love how this after-show is the whole group and it's not artificially dragged out for an hour plus. Very to the point, in the moment, and still gets that deeper look that's so great!

This was so enjoyable to watch and the respective commitment to character, combined with amazing DM.

I love this idea of having a chat about the session afterwards to reflect and laugh about what transpired, looking forward to the next episode I love this cast. This really made me want to rewatch the first ep again 👍

I'm so excited for both action surge and the main series! Everyone is doing a fantastic job, even those less used to D&D :) 1 suggestion: When the character portraits are on screen, I would say put the characters names in the main series. Just to help with the mental image and getting used to the characters, perhaps have the initial introductions have casts names on screen first though. Then in Action surge have the casts names be mainly on the screen but have the character names first. Helps distinguish in character and out of character too. Maybe I'm just waffling though, heck you guys have done incredible so far!

this is already one of my favorite dnd channels

This was good but it really made me impatient for the next episode!

Yesss I love that you do aftershows too!

Amazing! This is my new favourite D&D show

This is such a great episode. It's interesting to hear each member of natural six talking about their thoughts and feelings about each episode. I loved episode one and thought you guys did an amazing job. I can't wait to watch episode 2. The web is wide ❤

I am counting down the days to the next session the first one was so good love the party dynamics already.

Nice that there's these little aftershows! Episode 1 was fantastic too - looking forward to more :)

Perfectly sized post game convo! 👍 20-25ish minutes of fresh reactions is bang on. Good stuff

I'm hooked!! Loved episode 1, can't wait for more. You're all amazing.

Great insights here- really enjoyed hearing your thoughts on the session!

Loved the miniatures helping show the fight

OMG Ooo My Goodness... I'm going to love this channel and campaign .. like I stated before, I discovered your channel on Sunday looked at 0 and 0.5 and I was hooked looking forward to the next episode.

Excellent Show 🎉❤

I haven’t been able to get into an actual play podcast before but I’m enjoying this a lot so far

Loved the episode. I now find myself with a list of must watch plays. Two makes a list, right? The editing on this "Action Surge" was jarring.

Great group! You need a couch for the debrief 🥸

Let's gooooo more natural six

Keep Roly-Poly at the end, I think it's a fun little sign-off. See you next week!

I concur

Yeah!

Wooooohooooooooo!!!

I will say as an audio only listener I kept up with the combat well enough. I knew Dolly was surrounded and Morgan stuck next to Endellion and was attacked a bunch

Really love this kinda convo! I do think it would benefit from being released soon after the episode its in relation to, airs.

In an ideal world we totally would, but since we're just getting started, we want to make sure that we build a good foundation of delivering one video a week. A story video a week isn't possible right now, so Action Surge helps bridge that gap, but if/when/how things grow then you never know - Hollie

I honestly don't mind it being posted a little afterward as I think it serves as a good refresher for me before the next episode.

Congratulations Hollie.. just found a new game to play along with the heroes

just 20 minutes? i want moar lore >:D also, congrats on the first episodes, you bunch of cutie patooties

Love the character I

Loved episode 1 (and everything before that) and this little wind down is a great way to keep hype building for the next episode. Has the series all been recorded in advance / in multi-episode chunks? Im just interested to see if any comment feedback will be taken onboard mid-series. Also, any plans for merch? A simple tee with the logo as a badge would look very clean.

We have filmed a few in advance, so right now we've only filmed up to Episode 4. Simply because we all work full-time, we couldn't guarantee that we'd always be able to meet up, which is probably very relatable. We've made the decision to always be a few ahead so that if anything happens, and we can't film together, we should hopefully never be in a position where we have to skip a week! I'm sure there will be plans for merch in the future, but nothing to announce just yet! - Hollie

Obsessed y’all! I can’t wait for the next episode! 💜

The minis in regards to podcast/listeners. Think about football commentators. The good ones strike the balance between trying to provide spatial awareness vs over-commentating.

❤🎉

lets goooo

Please inject Natural Six content directly into my veins. Can't wait for episode 2. #spoongang

Dear N6, Have been looking forward to the start of this show … Loved the first episode! Great stuff. One tiny plea: Please put up some absorbers in the studio to soak up the reverb. Otherwise, keep enjoying yourselves - and thank you for sharing your adventures with us. 🤍

I’m working on it but I haven’t had a chance to build anything more into the room yet. If I get a chance I’ll do what I can to bass trap it and add more panels, but six open mics really highlights the reverb and manually ducking six tracks over all the recordings is a hell of a job. We’ve got 4 eps recorded to date like this I’m afraid but I’m doing what I can with the resources I have.

Audio is a bit "echoey". It's like you are recording this in a bathroom. Great show otherwise!
