She's reading pre written lines.

Michael Jarrett man we all know the whole show is scripted, still good though

@@HushtheMag no way dude

@@hirocheeto7795 A bunch of people playing a board game is scripted? Then what's the point in watching? They could at least have better writers.

What? No? I was being facetious and saying you were pointing out the incredibly obvious. The game itself isn't scripted.

I love Ashle

I like his confusion lmao. “Okay? Sure...? OH NO”

Because cold donkey piss wouldn't do the job

It's nice that he played into it after he caught on, though.

Victoria Johnson nat20 my guy

@@jaydenisaacs4855 Yasha's Hideous Laughter :D

More like Power Word: Kill on Sam

@@Toyo4Suka Technically true, but that's not a word play!

She must be at 17th level cuz that was at 4d4 psychic damage.

Joe A. So just the opposite of Liam's first one shot?

I wish I could retweet this.

one 3 minute roast burned down Notre Dame. I don't know what would be left after 4 hours of Ashley roast.

lmfao, Their attacks are all roasts. They roll for roast attack and then the DM decides the HP. that would be EVERYTHING.

Hello everyone, and welcome to Critical Roast

😱😱🤯

She is President of the Critical Role Foundation lol

Na, they fucked up enougj she got fired too.

So is that why things have been running so smoothly

@@danielboatright8887 she's still listed as president on the official page, where are you getting your info?

I was on the fence, till Ashley dropped the “Jeff Goldblum” Nuclear Warhead out of nowhere.

So many times I almost went with Sam but then Ashley would show up and I would forget I even saw him.

Please don't say "Voting With My Johnson" ever again.

EightThreeEight you’re gonna stop me numberboy?

@@Molly-bj5gb "Numberboy"? That's actually quite good. I'll have to make a note of that one.

And I didn't expect to enjoy it so much.

@@GZilla311 Also didn't expect the one getting executed to seemingly enjoy it so much until it hurt

@@Tetra392 But of course we're not kink-shaming here.

@@GZilla311 nah of course not. We dink shame and nothing more on this, the greatest of internet's

Liam: Ashley, how do you want to do this? Ashely: hold my beer.

... Donkey wearing a Jeff goldblum mask -OH MY GOD

Brad Horton and here I thought Caleb was the one who burns people.

Sherlock reference?

"THIS IS NOT WAR. THIS IS PEST CONTROL"

This is a cremation

YES, this one got lost under laughs, but riding the polls was a great dirty pun.

I love Taliesin just nodding as she does

Daddy O'Brien

but she has to prepare for the presidential campaign better than she does her (obviously cute and adorable) ads for the merch available in their stores.

He needs to get Talison as a running mate. only dark magic can save him now.

Or if he somehow convinces Matt to get in on this, that would be a very interesting election race

@@ryanferguson3926 or maybe Brian Foster, but have a whole scene where he approaches Brian like it's the godfather. really double down on the whole graft and corruption campaign.

@@comet6415 hahaha that's ace. Gotta love Sam setting up such a brilliant bit that just keeps on giving but still, I'm currently #votewithmyjohnson

poles were meant to be ridden.....lmao

@@frankholland3025 As a Pole- i confirm.

Maybe the language barrier but I don’t get it. She smuggled the word lesbian in there...what so funny about that? Or the reason?

@@squattingheads the reason is Ashley is making a word pun, using a word that sounds similar ti a part of another word

@@squattingheads Late answer, but this part is basically just the build up to the "polls/poles are meant to be ridden" execution.

yeah, it was awesome and sam was totaly in for it!

And it left quite the burn

Not a puny cantrip, that was a full on level 9 flame strike!

@@Pokeboyska Might as well have just called down the Meteor Swarm

Guiding Bolt far up Sam's butt

That was on par with Primordial Thordak's fire breath tbh

I've wondered if Brian helped her write this - this sounds like Brian

@@joeleckel5139 If I'm remembering correctly, I'm pretty sure I did watch a Talks Machina episode where they said something about him writing/co-writing it. Well, even if I hallucinated that, I'd still bet a lot of money that Brian had a hand in that speech.

@@sybariticcupboardrat3763 That did indeed happen. She wasn't sure how to start a roast, so she asked Brian for help. Doesn't make it any less funny if you ask me

I was going to comment that they definitely brain-stormed this together. Brian's humour is scathing but I'm sure Ashley can match him perfectly.

@@annenixda4800 u could said brian-storming it was right there!!

Yas

Vicious Mockery after Vicious Mockery, and I can't tell which one was the 9th level casting!

If talks machina is to be believed, brian w. foster wrote that eulogy. If there was ever a time to finally replace Orion, i think it's about time we harvest that particular cabbage patch.

@@dudemcfurgusson7179 Dude id love to see Bryan become part of the full cast, ill admit he rubbed me the wrong way at first but hes seriously grown on me and id love to see him join

@@TheSilverPhoenix100 Honestly same, at first I thought he actually had nothing to do with Critical Role and was just a cheesy af presenter for the live shows (my first actual CritRole video was a live show recording) but he's definitely grown on me I stan one cabbage patch kid

@@deffdefying4803 same with me too, I was pretty late getting into CR and had no idea who this goof Bryan was until I started watching Talks. His wit and timing are fantastic and he's a great host and interviewer.

Like #666. Lol

This. And we don't get enough of the best. Fearne in CR3 is not this, unfortunatly. But we need this badly. She needs to bring this as a character to the table. It's a must. Would bring me back to CR.

@@dirkboch128 You can stay where you are, we love Fearne

@@dirkboch128 Also, Fearne IS confident and cocky, in an maniacal, and chaotic fae way. She's hilarious and Ashley is a genius.

@@queengoblin Nah, she's just very very dumb ;)

Taliesin with his hand to his throat staring into our souls like "Yes, those hands can."

And who was that again?

@@armedwombat6816 A twitter user they befriended because of their great messages for Talks Machina

I'm still in recovery

Yeah, I think your days may be numbered, Arsequeef

@@JustAQNow how much burn cream did you go through after that roasting?

"As god is my witness, he is broken I'm half!"

This has 69 likes and I don't want to fuck that up, so I'll just give you a comment

Or you rolled a natural one on your insight.

@@radioface4997 @Radio Face Mine was a joke too. I have ZERO idea why you're upset‽ I legit thought my comment was funny. Oh well, *make some insignificant child shit themself because a joke went over their head.* [✓]

Woe woe woe here, no need to get bitter about it guys.

@@robertwallace5288 This is days old by now... I certainly have no interest in a pointless argument

Then the look of consideration that Taliesin gives, but then shrugs like "I'll allow it"

A fabulous idea gone wrong as soon as you clicked the video.

Samoclese it is a difficult decision to make

Lmao I’ve watched this so many times and never caught that, thanks

Probably both

I think people tend to underestimate Ashley's sense of humour. I've heard multiple cast members say that she is the funniest of them. And it makes sense that Bwf's partner would have a sense of honour as wicked as his

well..

But... It's only because Liam won and then chose to share the presidency with his work husband.

Right behind Caleb Widogast?
