Listen Later


Sqwuak? Sqwuarooo? Skreeee? Rooooar? Does a Griffon sound more like an eagle or a lion (or, in the case of the Glam Griffon, David Bowie)? This question and others are raised on today’s deep dive into the Griffon. Learn why Griffons historically love horse meat, how much their eggs go for on the black market, and what creature in real life is most like them (hint: not eagles or lions). Along the way, hear from author Cat Rambo and podcaster Alan Bailey, who bring their incredible creativity and passion for D&D to an episode packed tighter than a Griffon’s cloaca with facts, laughs, and observations you won’t find anywhere else.



Cat and Alan are co-hosts of the Hope Punk podcast, If This Goes On (Don’t Panic!)Cat Rambo has her own online university for teaching writing and her latest book, You Sexy Thing, is an absolutely wild space opera adventure.The Gryphon Pages comprise the absolute best Griffon website on the web in our opinion (we reference it a lot in the episode).
