Let’s finish off a shit of a year with a joke of a podcast. Plenty of extended or deleted nonsensical tangents. Come back in the new year for real podcasts about Iceborne’s monsters and before you know it- Monster Hunter Rise!
Dec 31, 2020•22 min•Ep. 99
Luke (joking): “Let’s do an episode about all the Endemic Life”. Jay: Yes. Luke: I am not editing that.
Dec 24, 2020•1 hr 12 min•Ep. 98
And now for the second part of our absolute nonsense about Monster Hunter World’s small monsters and the monsters that return from previous games. EDIT: Now with music that lines up properly!
Dec 16, 2020•58 min•Ep. 97
This week, the first half of a compilation episode of the small monsters and returning monsters from earlier games that appear in Monster Hunter World.

Behold! Only three years after the game’s release, the boys conclude the monsters from the main campaign of Monster Hunter World by fighting the mysterious Xeno’jiiva! This is your last sensible episode for a while; things are going to be a bit silly over the Christmas period. Then we’ll cover the Iceborne monsters and the countdown to Rise can begin!
Dec 03, 2020•26 min•Ep. 95
The creepy death dragon, shrouded in corpses, rolling in Effluvia and pretty frustrating to fight. And your boy Luke Summerhayes even joined the hunt after rushing out to buy a PS4 and putting in a week of Monster Hunter World!
Nov 26, 2020•22 min•Ep. 94
No Jay this week, but Luke, Andy and Muss bring you great chat about the Nergigante. With some nonsensical digressions at the start and the end, naturally.
Nov 19, 2020•29 min•Ep. 93
We tried our best to make both the stupidest episode ever and the most serious, all at once. Experience some cooking show chat, some attempts at impressions of monster noises and discussions of Hiroshima and the firebombings of Tokyo and Dresden. Oh, and Bazelgeuse.
Nov 12, 2020•23 min•Ep. 92
Here’s a podcast about probably the most beloved monster in the whole of Monster Hunter World. A big beautiful frog who may or may not look like Tetsucabra.
Nov 05, 2020•19 min•Ep. 91
Well, it’s 2 years and a month later than we promised but here’s our episode about the Zorah Magdaros. In our defence, it does feel like it takes two years and a month to fight the Zorah Magdaros . . . Anyway, this is basically what Monster Mash is like. A deep dive into a monster from Monster Hunter. If you’re new, why not go back and check out episodes about monsters you know and love? Just been warned, if you go back to the first twenty or thirty you might not like the sound quality . . .

Hello? Is thing on? It’s been slightly over two years but, energised by the announcement of Monster Hunter Rise we are podcasting about Hunting monsters again!This is a catch-up with the boys, their thoughts on Monster Hunter World two and a half years on and their speculations about the upcoming games and movie. Starting from next week, we’re picking right back up where we left off with a podcast about the Zorah Magdaros.

It's a lonelier episode of Monster Mash than you're used to this week - join the Dynamic Duo of Andy and Jay as they tackle everyone's favourite flesh pupper, Odogaron.
Sep 05, 2018•20 min•Ep. 88
In this episode, the boys dream of ice areas as they chat about the Legiana: features such nonsense as "is Legiana the only new flying wyvern in MHW?" Make sure you stick around to the very end to find out Jay's favourite Black Eyed Peas song. Also, ping us a tweet if you missed the hunt snippets at the end - we're trying something new considering we're uploading the hunts in full now.
Aug 22, 2018•17 min•Ep. 87
The boys wax lyrical about tar, peat and the Radobaan in a very sticky episode of Monster Mash. Enjoy!
Aug 08, 2018•16 min•Ep. 86
In a Monster Mash first, Andy takes over the reins for editing and puts together a perfectly adequate cast. Enjoy.
Jul 25, 2018•1 hr 1 min•Ep. 85
This week, the boys are supposed to be discussing the big, good, fluffy bat Paolumu but it's honestly just a train wreck. Muss quite accurately likens it to this video. If you miss the good old days when man in Japan Luke Summerhayes provided excellent monster-based content, you're in luck! Check out his new video and podcast series Luke Loves Pokémon.

Join the lads for another episode of Monster Mash in which they discuss this big lightning squirrel lizard. The lads talk about ol' Tobes himself alongside discussing the map design of the Ancient Forest. Enjoy!
