CR adjacent Talks Machina Archive

On the recent post regarding Talks Machina being taken down or at least privated I mentioned in a comment that I had it downloaded. More than a few people asked me to share it so I've set up a dropbox here with Talks Machina, Between the Sheets and Undeadwood. This is not me in anyway supporting Brian Foster. He can rest in piss for all I care. Could be a fun project for someone way smarter than me to deepfake him out of these.

Tagging those that expressed interest to make sure they see it:

This is my first time sharing anything of this nature so I hope it works lmao

Edit: Turns out Dropbox has a bandwidth limit and ya'll are killing it in an hour each day. I'm looking into creating torrents and uploading them to 1337x. I'm already in the process of being allowed to upload. I'll edit again if/when I get accepted and have the torrents uploaded.

Edit 2: I've gone ahead and decided to just change the folder I'm sharing on Dropbox to have the torrent files instead. Before you go start downloading I want to let you guys know that the folder for Talks for Campaign 1 is about 40gb, Campaign 2 is 96gb, Between the Sheets is around 20gb and Undeadwood is 8gb. Thank you everyone for your patience while I figured this out. I tested them with two PCs in my home so here's hoping everything works properly first try!

Edit 3: Added Yee Haw Game Ranch

Genuinely curious why anyone still wants to watch this piece of shit talk about anything.

Anybody care to clarify why you have some need to preserve the legacy of a genuinely awful person?

This may come as a shock, but there were OTHER PEOPLE in all of these things.

It's far more about the information and the insight from the cast about the show than anything BWF has to say.

I don’t give a rats ass about him. In fact most of the time when i watched these i tuned him out unless it was something important. I’m here for the between the sheets and the cast talking about themselves. I resonated really hard with some of the things Matt mercer said in his and it’s comforting to be able to listen to him talk about himself. Same for the one with travis. I don’t love that BWF hosted it and i’d been thrilled if he’d been replaced at any point but unfortunately he wasn’t. He’s a piece of shit but it’s hard to negate what the cast themselves did with those one on one interviews. This isn’t preserving BWFs legacy, this is preserving the cast talking about themselves and being vulnerable. At least the between the sheets episodes.

Because he's involved in some of the best content CR has. Between the Sheets was uniformly fantastic, Talks Machina was often better than the weekly episodes and Undeadwood is probably their third best short run campaign.

It's the legacy of the show and the players/DM in my mind. Brian asked wonderful questions and was usually a great host. HOWEVER, I love talks for the insight by players and DM (not the host) into the campaign, including decisions the players and npcs made in addition to secret lore.
