Creature Crunch

The end of this episode is real bad in the audio department and if we continued to try and fix it, it might never air. So apologies for not only the delay, but also the quality of the last 20 minutes. Maybe we'll try to make up for it in the new year...

This week, we dive back into the 80's for a quotable mess that we love. We also welcome back guest and good friend, Mike.

Spoilers ahead.

Hosted by yet another bug: Chris.

Maggots are gross. This is a universal truth. Our subject today, isn't. He's actually kind of rad. He just got the raw end of the deal in many regards.

Happy Halloween!

In our continued effort to actually do something unique for this, the spookiest of holidays, we jump into an even shorter media than the 22-minute episode we covered last year.

This week, we check out the straight-to-streaming blockbuster that probably shouldn't have. We also welcome our second guest and good friend, Mike, to talk about this sci-fi shlop.

Spoilers ahead.

Just like last year, we're celebrating our anniversary by bringing you a whole bunch of nonsense inspired by the movies of the previous season.

This time around we really started thinking outside of the box and have some fun things in store, including a whole mess of player options! If you enjoy this, please consider supporting us on our Patreon for more!

The episode is a little late due to some technical difficulties.

Advice to players: Now your DM has a method of lighting any and every monster you fight on fire. You're welcome.

Two years seems like too long to be stubbornly releasing these still and yet here we are. It's been a bumpy year and we're already off to a rocky start for year three with a late release but that won't stop us! We're going to keep on trucking with Alien³!

Spoilers ahead.

Interlude music: "Fury Oh Fury" by Nico Vega

Background music: The Alien 3 Soundtrack

Hosted by actual spider... or maybe not? Chris.

Spiders. They're everywhere. You'll find them in your home, in bushes and trees, in attics and basements, and sometimes, you'll find them poured into a man suit. In rare instances, they're not spiders at all, but weird red lizard men. Nature is wild, isn't it?

Advice to players: Remember to always relocate unwanted spiders to the outdoors instead of killing them. Unless they punch you in the face or trap you in an endless cycle of living out your worst nightmare in a perpetual web of dreams that will drive you mad. In those cases, I'd suggest moving.

The anniversary episode is taking us a little longer than anticipated, so here's a favorite Kibbles of ours in the meantime:

Matt took a crack at this whole "background" thing and we think it turned out pretty good! We also have a Creature Crunch guarantee to uphold and a magic item to bash into the heads of your noisy goblin neighbors.

Advice to players: If it's too hard, it's probably not worth doing! Unless, of course, your family is in peril.

We watch and outline one of the only live-action movies to feature no human people: The Dark Crystal. Join us as we discuss the anatomy of some puppets, fail to get past the wet-noodle properties of the protagonist, and welcome Creature Crunch's first guest. Then, stick around as we crunch up a couple creatures that really should have stayed ghosts: the Skekler and the Uler!

Spoilers ahead.

Hosted by a multitude of entities crammed into one: Chris.

Mutant powers are weird and frankly, I don't think we talk about the existential crisis created by some of them nearly enough. Today, we talk about a man (men?) who really exemplify the true need for therapy and give us an example of why it is so important.

Advice to players: If you ever find yourself the parent of some kind of baby with powers, at  the very least, leave them a note or something  in case you die.
