    BEHOLD! The Azer!

    Metal-based racism, fire worship and sexy elves trying not to be sexy.

    BEHOLD! THE ANKHEG!

    9 AM is a bad time to watch Tremors, giant ants might actually be marmots, and a tree coming out of your neck HAS to mean something.

  • 4 – Animated Objects

    https://monstermanualmash.ptbopodcasters.ca/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2018/03/episode-4-edited-re-export.mp3

    BEHOLD! Animated Objects!

    This rug was made for smothering, and that's just what it'll do. We talk chairs who think they're cows, magic as advertising, and the nefarious implications of Pixar's Cars.

  • 3 – Angels

    https://monstermanualmash.ptbopodcasters.ca/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2018/03/mmm-episode-3-re-export.mp3

    BEHOLD! Some angels!

    Wes and Chris talk muscly, feathery, Abrahamic HUNKS. With the right setup, you can use them right out of the box, but have you considered covering them in eyes or making them look like a giant wheel?

    BEHOLD! The Aboleth!

    D&D's favorite mind-controlling fish blob. Wes is all for it, but Chris thinks it's a hot mess. Is it Lovecraft-ian enough? What are “globsters”? And, have you ever seen an exploding whale?

    Welcome to Monster Manual Mash!

    We are no one in particular, and we pick apart every entry in the Dungeons and Dragons monster manual, drawing from history, mythology, arm-chair psychology, pop culture and our own improv to figure out what makes each one tick.

    BEHOLD! The Aaraokocra!

    What do bird people from the elemental plane of air have to do with Buddhism, Romulans, and the planet Jupiter? Maybe if you LISTENED you would know, ok?

    NOTE: We botched the quality of the recording so it sounds tinny. Wes fixes some of it part way through but, it is what it is. Rather than rerecord and lose the spontaneity and energy of our conversation, we are asking you to grin and bear it this time around. Don't be precious. Sorry. Sorry. We get better!
