@@2deep5u I wouldn't be surprised if European sailors/adventurers/settlers moved around and spread that story and culture. So it could be an Irish thing too I guess
@@2deep5u it’s kind of a everywhere thing. Germany’s got it. The scandis have it. France has it. Check out the overly sarcastic productions video about it
After the podcast, a shadowy figure in a treanchcoat tossed his half-smoked cigarette into the street. As he approached Woolie's door, he loaded his 45 caliber revolver with a single bullet. He knocked on the front door. Woolie half cocked the door to see who it was... it was the man from the bar. "Top of the mornin' to you, lad!" the Irishman yelled as he kicked the door open busting Woolie's nose. Forcing the mid-level internet personality to his knees, the Irishman brought the gun to Woolie's temple, "Shoulda kept yer *fookin'* mouth shut!" Woolie smacked the gun from the Irishman's hand using his already broken madkatz controller. *BLAM!* The revolver went off and blew out woolie's TV. Woolie then wound back and hit the Irishman in the face with the controller. Little effect. The Irishman picked woolie up by the scruff of his jersey and proceeded to land a tirade of punches upon him. Woolie luckily dodged one after getting hit four times and using the momentum of the Irishman's body weight he threw him into his coffee table. The sound of smashing glass filled the room and could be heard out in the hallway. Other residents of Woolie's apartment complex went out to hear the commotion more clearly. Mothers held their scared children in their arms. Dogs barked ferociously. A confused half dressed middle-aged weeb scratched his balls all while the sounds of crashing furniture and the shouting of two men murdering each other resonated from below the doorframe of the dark hallway. The sounds subsided. There was silence for a long time. Woolie opened the door and limped out. His mouth missing teeth. His jersey covered in blood. "That has to be the least lucky Irishman I've ever seen..." ... and that my friends is the story of how Woolie totally killed a guy.
I'm imagining him going thru a book of his ancestors and they look like Woolie in different costumes, until the last page is him cosplaying as Dracula.
Why can I only picture Woolie sifting through ye olde Irish archives to eventually find a dusty, ancient tapestry that defines his bloodline to the fourth hokage of ireland
i mean high king, hokage, is there really much of a difference? its tracks pretty well, all things considered. am totally refering to the position as hokage of ireland from now on. is way more fun
Can't wait for Woolie to discover his family's ancient martial art and has to fight off the shadow organizations of the world to protect the manuscripts
When the classics family style isn’t enough he says fuck it and grabs two machetes/cutlasses. “Darlington, what are you doing?” “I’m doing it Woolie style!” Fusing Ireland with the Islands to over come to boss
"The Maddens were such pains in the asses apparently that they got shipped off to Ireland" *Woolie gets deported to Ireland for never turning off the VISR in ODST*
Woolie or *Blood of the Hound, Lord of Hold Super Beast, and Seat at the Council of Fighters* is one lore reveal away from becoming a chosen one or the final villain. *There is no other option.*
starting to sound like a demiurge from kill six billion demons, "woolie madden, "son of the hound", lord of the castle of beasts, seat on the council of fighters and god of the seven part world"
Also Woolie if Madden means "Son of the Hound" it could be referring to the mythical Irish folk hero Cu Chulainn the Hound of Chulainn, wielder of the legendary spear Gae Bolg and Warp Spasm enthusiast. Who is also in every Atlas game and always a beast.
A cursory glance at the "prima nocta" material gives me the impression that it's always been a story that people told about "those people over there we don't like," to illustrate why we shouldn't associate with them. Kind of like the whole "those people over there, they're buggering the sheep" insults we still throw around.
That's what I've heard. The few times I've heard it in a context it was usually with a little aside describing that there were no actual records of it but was more of a rumor for what it was associated with.
Weskers secret isn't the cocktail of virus's he has in his body, it's that he is a Madden. That's why he lies all the time, and why he has super powers.
We regret to inform you that Woolie has permanently left the podcast because he was recruited by the IRA and is now hunting down Ulster unionists with a samurai sword under the moniker "Son of the Hound"
I wish there wasn’t this mentality that you can only be Scottish or you can only be Irish. Ireland and Scotland are joined at the hip historically and ethnically due to the settlement of the Scoti people in Scotland forming the Gaelic kingdom of Dàl Riata, eventually merging with the local Picts to form the kingdom of Alba. The clans often had roots in both lands.
ethnicity in general is hard to accurately express and understand. Humans like to put things, especially groups of people, into nice neat little boxes and real things ignore those boxes.
Woolie bringing up the dude with the thick Irish accent that he met before going to Dublin was gold. I can't imagine what it'd be like to hear a stranger with a thick accent regale me with hints of legends of my lineage's dark past.
If Woolie were to set foot in a Madden castle he would have been transported to a Dark Souls world. Martin Lawrence’s Black Knight meets FromSoft. Giving a new meaning to Dark Souls
Woolie keeps looking into his past to find out his bloodline has so many curses they cancel each other out to keep him alive like lucky Abrams from keikkai sensen
Not as scandalous as the last Maddentown story; which is my favorite tale ever told on the podcast, past or current iteration. But I’m glad Woolie was able to connect with his past.
Sir Woolie O’ Madden: Son of the Hound of Castle Madden I can see it: in the future, Woolie digs deeper and finds that he is somehow related to Cu Chulainn and/or Fionn mac Cumhaill
Woolie is slowly becoming character from something like Fate Grand/order or something. Next thing you know he's gonna learn that one of his ancestors reached Akasha and that he's able to use true magic.
Most people probably don't know that Prima Nocta was most likely just a rumor told about "that group over there that I don't like." He might have actually thought it was true.
I can imagine a situation where Woolie inherits ancestral castle and walks in fully naked and yells "Woolies in da house!". Just like Samuel L. Jackson in 51st State.
Woolie has anime adventures where he meets alternate reality "better" Woolie and finds out he's Woolie the son of the Hound. Meanwhile Pat has a mundane life until he finds out his best bud is JoJo and becomes Koichi when he finds out Paige is actually a stand user, but its cool cuz they actually love each other.
@@Champiness It's ok. Koichi isnt a JoJo but absolutely a main character. Just like him Pat life seems like a serious of unfortunate events meets its always sunny but he always somehow ends up on top. If that is not a shonen protag idk what is. If anything Peach is the side character. She's just so interesting we ended up getting a spinoff.
Woolington, Son of the Hound & his faithful compatriot Patrick of Redwine are the Don Quixote & Sancho Panza manga friendship I didn't know that I needed.
The name "the hound" is sometimes used in Irish mytholigy to refer to cu colaen (probably spelt wrong). So that family name could be being used to indicate direct decemdancy from cu colaen.
Can't wait for the Maddentown Timetravel Saga of Castle Super Beast, when Woolie finds out about his dark family origins and awakens his Devil Trigger Power
just did a quick search for the etymology, it's a spelling of "o'madain", which means "descendant of the son of the hound", hounds apparently being noted for speed, agility and loyalty in pre-10th century ireland, and it's most likely from someone's nickname. so no, it's a compliment in this case. especially since "bastard" comes from french, not gaelic.
Clan-based cultures like Ireland and Scotland are likely to have a lot of family history written down, the question is how much of it you can trust. Especially when there's beef between clans. There's a traditional scottish ballad called Baron o' Brackley, that you can search on youtube and find a bunch of recordings of, all about a distant relation of mine and what a scumbag he was. But of course in any source written by a member of the clan, he's portrayed as the archetypal outlaw hero.
And because the English burned the majority of our written down history everything that’s common knowledge has so many iterations because it’s from word of mouth . Kinda cool but really sad we don’t have that history to look back on
It's cool to learn where you came from glad you got to enjoy that and congrats on the wife! I found out my Ancestors came over on the mayflower, i found out that I am descended from multiple native american tribes on my maternal grandmothers side. On my maternal grandfathers side I am descended from THE JOHN ADAMS. The guy who gave economic and military aid to the Haitan Rebels and 2nd President. A framer of the US constitution. and his son John QUINCY Adams! The first abolitionist president! it was a shock because growing up John Adams was always one of my favorite American historical figures. And we have a long standing military tradition going all the way back to the Revolution. My ancestors were all union soldiers too so and have no record of slaveowning, In fact there is a long standing family pattern of fighting for peoples rights. I am so proud to learn that my love of liberty was a gift my Ancestors passed down to me. We served in literally every military engagement, save for either the Mexican-American war or the Spanish-American war, and in all branches save for the Airforce. And nobody in the family ever passed down this information but my cousin was able to go through census data, birth certificates, tax information and ledgers to get all these details.
If the O'Madden's name roughly translates to "Son of the Hound" I wonder if they partially drew their name from the myth of Cú Chulainn since his name roughly translates to "Hound of Culainn".
i just looked it up for another comment, and no, it's unlikely they drew from cú chulainn. basically, most clan names and titles in ireland come from one of their ancestor's nicknames. so "O'Madain", which is the old form of the name, basically means "descendant of the son of the hound", one of the ancestors of the clan would have been named or nicknamed "Madain" or "Mhadaidh", which basically means "dog".
My family crest has a giant black bar on it. One of my distant relatives from the early 1600s was caught as an illegal concubine to the king of Scotland, and the entire family was banished from the country.
thats really awesome for woolie, though im a bit disappointed this wasn't the search for ACTUAL Madden Town to find all the crack that Pat and Matt made people think was in there XD
My name is Brandon Powell. My first name means little raven and my second name means son of the exalted one. Considering that ravens are symbols for death my name means Prince of death.
If I had a penny for every time I found a new meaning to the saying, "I would have been your daddy, but a dog beat me over the fence." I would have two penny's.
You'll be relieved to hear that the only thing substantiating the existance of prima nocta as a practice was "some drunk guy said". Turns out, it's really really hard to maintain control of a group of people if you write laws like that.
In this episode: Woolie O'Madden narrowly survives an ambush set by Patches O'Wolfdad on the slopes of Grudge Mountain, the latest incident in a long-running blood feud dating back to when Dirtbag O'Madden ruined Niceguy O'Wolfdad's wedding night. Next time: Pat traces his lineage back to Pepin "Le Guzzleur" Boivin, who survived the massacre at the Battle of Agincourt by being too drunk to turn up.
Woolie’s life continues to reach anime protagonist levels of complexity while pat’s life exists in a loop of constant insanity or mundanity
Woolie's life is a shonen. Pat's life is a comedy of errors.

With the comedic sidekick of pat wine drinker
Sounds like someone who would occasionally team up with The Mountain, Patrick Wine-o
That title made that name go from trash tier to S Tier.
Legit sounds like a rival to Cu Chulainn.
Being haunted by a dark Irish ancestry is another great addition to the Woolie Lore

The Madden Ancestor: "Ruin has come to our family..."
Words cannot describe how much I want a drunk Irishman to tell me about my families dark history.
thats really awesome for woolie, though im a bit disappointed this wasn't the search for ACTUAL Madden Town to find all the crack that Pat and Matt made people think was in there XD
"Son of the hound" is something you'd paint on your giant bionic arm.
My name is Brandon Powell. My first name means little raven and my second name means son of the exalted one. Considering that ravens are symbols for death my name means Prince of death.
10:34 woolies Scottish accent makes him sound like he was talking to head from God of war😄
Oh god, Woolie's gonna start introducing himself as "Woolie, Son of the Hound"
If I had a penny for every time I found a new meaning to the saying, "I would have been your daddy, but a dog beat me over the fence." I would have two penny's.
You'll be relieved to hear that the only thing substantiating the existance of prima nocta as a practice was "some drunk guy said". Turns out, it's really really hard to maintain control of a group of people if you write laws like that.
All the Warriors
In this episode: Woolie O'Madden narrowly survives an ambush set by Patches O'Wolfdad on the slopes of Grudge Mountain, the latest incident in a long-running blood feud dating back to when Dirtbag O'Madden ruined Niceguy O'Wolfdad's wedding night.
Next time: Pat traces his lineage back to Pepin "Le Guzzleur" Boivin, who survived the massacre at the Battle of Agincourt by being too drunk to turn up.
