The One Where We Say Goodbye

June 27, 2023 17:00 - 49 minutes - 34 MB

Not much to say here. We reminisce about the past four and a half years of Monsters & Multiclass and talk about what the shows meant to us. We know this is the right call for us, but it is hard to say goodbye. This episode gave us a lot of closure, and for our fans that feel they need that, I hope this does for you as well.  As discussed in the episode if you want a free shirt email [email protected].

Druid/Monk 2022 Redux - Technically Dense (D&D 5e)

April 28, 2022 07:00 - 51 minutes - 35.7 MB

Due to being, hopefully, better at our jobs than when we first started 3 and a half years ago, and all the changes to 5th edition since then we're taking a fresh look at some of our old multi class breakdowns! This episode we're taking a second look at Druid/Monk. We found a couple of niche builds last go around but now with all the new subclasses and options is there more here?
