@@grinm1899 yeah I know, even as a native speaker that one confused me. It's about how miners would carry caged birds, like canaries, into the mine with them to use as a warning system for environmental hazards. If there were areas with dangerous gasses, like carbon monoxide, or areas with low oxygen, the canary would die first, showing that the area wasn't safe to be in.
This might get lost in the comments but I just wanted to say thank you so much for posting all of these. Watching a new episode of Crit Role is one of the big things I looked forward to at the end of a long week of work, so not having it right now is hitting me a little hard, but having these videos from the beginning makes up for it, so thank you so much. :)
@@kevsegg Oh yeah, I definitely am! I really appreciate you checking in on someone after so long, that's really kind and compassionate. I hope you're doing okay too! :)
@@8440k Liam did in the first episodes when Travis asked if one of the horses they saw was a mustang and Liam replied under his breath "is it's name Roy?"
you know, i've been waiting for it but have never heard anyone make the obvious Monty Python reference with someone (especially a dead bird) pining for a Fjord.
Watching this makes me sad at how they had to seperate for covid. Everyone was able to be close and bounced off one another literally and metaphorically. Glad they're back together in C3.
"is that where 'the brave' comes from, that was gonna be my question" (Laura says the same thing) in reference to Nott being afraid to go in the mine, then getting drunk and being more than willing to go in.
Matt voices a character named McCree in a popular shooter called Overwatch, that character has a "high noon" catchphrase. Many of the fans made poor Matt say it over and over again.
Making a bunch of puns on the Ford car brand and its various models (Ford Expedition, Ford Explorer, Ford Escape, etc.), and how Fjord’s name is pronounced the same way. “Canary in a gnoll mine” is a pun on “canary in a coal mine,” which was a warning sign that miners would know to leave the mines quickly. If there was a dangerous gas buildup, it would kill the canary well before killing the miners.
