3:00 to 3:13 so many onions in the room here. This is when you know you've got a good kid on your hands! Thank you for being the kid that embraced a buddy with a learning disorder, Joe Manganiello. I love to hear about kids that have done stuff to make other kids' childhoods awesome! Those memories continue to be so important.

Man... with the last video I cried. With this one I laughted with joy The passion that you all feel for D&D is inspiring!! D&D is amazing and we need to share it with the rest of the world!!

[@garrettk67]

Have a D10 inspiration

[@RobLucci3]

A lot of people are coming back to D&D or are starting to get interested in D&D because it isn't stigmatized anymore. Not to long ago, people used to give you strange looks when you mentioned D&D or just simply thought you're not someone who they should hang out with. But times have changed and it feels good, man.

[@Nheeb]

I thought this was a repost. Happy to be surprised though. Joe is awesome! I hope he gets the writers and cast to make a D&D movie that brings an avalanche of high quality content to the big screen!

[@theartofmikedisney7614]

Love this guy! Had no idea he was a D&D fan. Love stories like this from famous people that are not afraid to share their love for the game that so many of us were picked on for playing way back in the day before the internet.

[@jamesmahoney6665]

I think we or someone in our family also owned that Hobbit Album/Book As a Writer/Filmmaker D & D was definitely huge in my development of Character Creating, and Story Building as well Looking forward to you, and your Wife's New Game Stream, need to make sure I don't miss the First One!

[@jacobssnake28]

Just want to say... Your videos are amazing! Always have great guests, always good video handling/editing, always asking questions that help and inform viewers, and its obviously the made by fans. It's like I get my own little news/talk show for D&D. Keep up the good work! I want more!!!!!

[@Vogelkinder]

We don't see enough of this. People expressing their love of the genre. More please!

[@sesimie]

I'm a Bard Player...due to Critical Role....Favourite Band is MetallicA and someone told me i remind her of Mr. Manganiello. He Even Referenced Conan my Favourite Comic book character and cites the Hobbit as his gateway to fantasy...wow same here!! I have to fav this!!

[@Rubbseh]

brilliant interview

[@lorec9795]

Wow listening to Joe's story really brought back so many memories for me. We really found our love for D&D in similar ways. I also started with the love of Frazetta, Paul Windsor Smith, John Buscema, all artists who encapsulated the image of R.E Howards Conan. Then an interest in Tolkien and also Stephen King with some Lovecraft thrown in as well. All these things began to open up my impressionable mind at the time and took me into D&D. Also a huge shout out to Michael Moorcock and his anti hero Elric. Those tales along withe Conan really played a huge part of my youth. All these artist really gave me the freedom to view new worlds from old. And to not be afraid to explore them. Thank you, Joe, for showing me that I was not alone in that journey.

[@rafael1iel]

I'm loving your content, good luck from brazil and keep it up!

[@comfortzone2282]

I love that art of those characters at the end! May I ask who drew them? I would love to seek out more of their work!

[@a.o.9594]

I won’t lie the hobbit was first novel I ever read. It took me almost 3months, due to I had such trouble reading much cause of my bad vision. I still have that book. It is wrapped up in a cloth inside a box. I read parts of it yet. I hope one day I can pass it on to my daughter and I know she’ll be able to at least read it. Cause she is learning much faster than me it makes me proud.

[@riccardorumor94]

There is a bunch of Italian guys that are now starting to prooduce a D&D module for Norse Mithology called "Journey to Ragnarock". They have already reached their goal on kickstarter, so if you are going to run a d&d norse campaign at home I suggeto to take a look at them :) the manual will be written in english too

[@ToddKenreck]

Thanks! We've already got our setting pretty well ironed out. I'm excited they got funding though!

[@simonemontanari533]

He should play Caramon

[@fortunatus1]

That Hobbit record got me hooked to fantasy and D&D as well. Wow, I'm in good company. Read the Hobbit for the first time when I was 9 and inspired to do so by that record and the Hobbit animated movie.

[@rburt3]

*love* those character designs. Something.... familiar about the art style. ;)

[@rjh7101]

same book that got me hooked on fantasy.

[@edstevens1503]

I still have mine too!

[@elib6465]

Will you post the livestreams in youtube?

[@countchocula86]

SKIRTZZZ ART!

[@ITPalGame]

maybe a link to the Twitch channel would be helpful

[@KonkaBass]

I had noooOooooOoooo idea Joe was this cool.

[@wanderlust6204]

Joe - true fan of the game. By the way, what is that music playing in the background?

[@insektl0gic]

Please add closed captioning (CC).

[@aventura8491]

Oh my god. Joe Manganiello resembles Michael Tsarion so much... !

[@ZeroPointConor]

After streaming on Twitch will you be uploading your "The Dragon Life" series to KZbin?

[@ToddKenreck]

Yes, that is the plan. Also, youtube doesn't let us link directly to Twitch in our side cards.

[@ZeroPointConor]

Sa'll good. Found it on Twitch already. Really looking forward to it. Love the art work. Any ETA on the stream?

[@ToddKenreck]

Late July we are thinking. We will have a video interview with the cast (our friends) and have a date soon!

[@ZeroPointConor]

Awesome! Can't wait. Keep up the great work guys. :)

[@EternalTotem]

[@Tekosai130]

You said twitch, but the Dragon Life link is a youtube channel instead. Do you planning to multi stream?

[@ToddKenreck]

I'm not sure yet. We want to get both channels up and running, Twitch is our focus. www.twitch.tv/thisdragonlife

[@JacksonOwex]

Does Joe have time to be a regular member of Critical Role? Matt can Joe become a regular member of Critical Role?

[@belias360]

I want him to hit me with ALL his D6s... Dear god I can't...

[@thomaslnd]

belias360 you assume it's only a d6. Probably more like a d8 or d10

[@65Superhawk]

And he got to marry Sophia Viarga....moral of the story? D&D leads to great things??!! I just hear Sophia’s voice, “Aye! Papí! Why do you prefer playing with little men and dice over me...!!!??? Dios mio!!”

[@dealwolfstriked272]
