We go on some tangents and talk some shit on Monster Mash, but if there's a tangent too far, it gets put in a folder for an episode like this. If you think the banter is funny, this is for you. If you come for the Monster Hunter chat . . . maybe skip this week.

A little more sensible this week, but also some more nonsense about the Beatles, another excellent demonstration of why Jay should do the poems and the most harrowing incarnation of "could Luke fight this animal?" yet.

This is a quintessential episode of Monster Mash right here. There's some good chat about the Chameleos, there really is, but there also weird tangents about Middlesborough, talk of hairy bottoms, loads of stuff about oral sex and some awful Andrew Rice videogame hot takes.

Luke and Jay deliver some quality audio content about the Zinogre. Meanwhile, Andy has taken Jay's idea of being the "TV Catchphrase Guy" to heart, and Jas' recording is a little bork, so enjoy their input I guess.
Also, stay around to the hunt to hear Luke make a really off-colour joke. If you're offended, why not let us know with a (five star) review on apple podcasts?

Outtakes 2020

The Fated Four — Thu, 31 Dec 2020 00:37:36 +0000

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!

Episode 97: Endemic Life

The Fated Four — Thu, 24 Dec 2020 01:23:50 +0000

Luke (joking): “Let’s do an episode about all the Endemic Life”. Jay: Yes. Luke: I am not editing that.

Episode 96: Small and Returning Monsters Part 2

The Fated Four — Wed, 16 Dec 2020 04:59:00 +0000

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!

Episode 96: Small and Returning Monsters Part 1

The Fated Four — Wed, 09 Dec 2020 15:52:18 +0000

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.

Episode 95: Xeno'jiiva

The Fated Four — Thu, 03 Dec 2020 07:35:00 +0000

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!

Episode 94: Va'al Hazak

The Fated Four — Thu, 26 Nov 2020 11:30:00 +0000

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!

Episode 93: Nergigante

The Thrilling Three — Thu, 19 Nov 2020 06:00:00 +0000

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.

Episode 92: Bazelgeuse

The Fated Four — Thu, 12 Nov 2020 12:52:19 +0000

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.

Episode 91: Dodogama

The Fated Four — Thu, 05 Nov 2020 12:45:59 +0000

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.

Episode 90: Zorah Magdaros

The Fated Four — Thu, 29 Oct 2020 05:00:00 +0000

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.

Episode 89: The Return of Monster Mash

The Fated Four — Thu, 22 Oct 2020 06:00:00 +0100

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.

Episode 88: Odogaron

Monster Mash Podcast — Wed, 05 Sep 2018 18:19:14 +0100

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.

Episode 87: Legiana

Monster Mash Podcast — Wed, 22 Aug 2018 21:42:46 +0100

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.

Episode 86: Radobaan

The Peat Men — Wed, 08 Aug 2018 21:00:50 +0100

The boys wax lyrical about tar, peat and the Radobaan in a very sticky episode of Monster Mash. Enjoy!

Episode 85: Great Girros

The Artiste, Andy — Wed, 25 Jul 2018 22:17:52 +0100

In a Monster Mash first, Andy takes over the reins for editing and puts together a perfectly adequate cast. Enjoy.

Episode 84: Paolumu

The Fated Four — Wed, 11 Jul 2018 06:48:00 +0100

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.

Episode 83: Tzitzi Ya-Ku

Three Men Who Are Also Babies — Wed, 27 Jun 2018 20:24:18 +0100

Just a three-man show this week as Andy, Jay, and Jas talk you through a blue dinosaur with a light bulb on his head.

Episode 82: Anjanath

The design, hunt and ecology of the Anjanath

Episode 81: Tobi-Kadachi

Monster Mash Podcast — Wed, 30 May 2018 07:59:55 +0100

Episode 80: Jyuratodus

Andrew Rice — Tue, 15 May 2018 20:24:08 +0100

Big fish must die

Episode 79: Pukei Pukei

The Fated Four — Wed, 02 May 2018 07:34:00 +0100

He's big. He's green. He's a lizard. He's a frog. He's a bully. He's a flower. He's a bitch. He's a lover. He's a child. He's a mother. He's a sinner. He's a saint. He does not feel ashamed. He's Pukei Pukei!

Episode 78: Kulu Ya Ku

The Fated Four — Wed, 18 Apr 2018 12:02:00 +0100

He block. He knock. But most importantly, he love rock. This week, the lads discuss the adorable chicken Kulu Ya Ku. And because Luke is still travelling Japan, nobody was on hand to bring up real life prehistoric analogues like the terror bird. Shocking.

Episode 77: Great Jagras

The Fated Four — Thu, 05 Apr 2018 10:12:11 +0100

After a two week break, Monster Mash is back! It's time for season three, and this is the one you've all been waiting for: we're covering the monsters from Monster Hunter World! Some slight changes going forwards. You'll be hearing less of Luke (though he's still producing and editing, and writing this in the third person) but instead you'll hear from Alex Musselwhite, who'd pretty chill. We're going to be bringing you episodes bi-weekly, but on the off weeks we'll be uploading our full pre-recording hunts to youtube. We're also going to get back to properly updating our facebook and youtube channels. Please get on whatever social media or podcasting apps you have and spread the word!

Episode 76: Season Two Outtakes

Gintendo Namer — Wed, 14 Mar 2018 08:49:51 +0000

This week, we've got some outtakes for you. We all talk a lot of rubbish, Andy disconnects, and Luke is unexpectedly interrupted by both his sister and his mother on different occasions. The show is taking a brief break but we'll be back better than ever to get stuck into the content we know you really crave: Monster Hunter World Monsters!

Episode 75: Yer Mummies Vs Ataroru Ka

The Fated Four — Wed, 07 Mar 2018 09:54:15 +0000

It's the final monster of Monster Hunter XX! The Atlal Ka, or Atoraru Ka, hasn't ever appeared in an English game and none of us speak good Japanese, so expect some nonsense. Luke's audio was a little better in the cast this week, but unusable in the hunt. Easy come, easy go. Next week, we'll have some outtakes for you. After that, the show is taking a brief break but we'll be back better than ever to get stuck into the content we know you really crave: Monster Hunter World Monsters!

Episode 74: Failures Vs Fatalis

The Fainted Four — Wed, 28 Feb 2018 13:07:13 +0000

It's the last day of Elder Dragon Month and the penultimate monster before we move onto the Monster Hunter World beasties! It's a bit of a long one this week again, but we are discussing and hunting three big elder dragons. Also, Luke's audio is a little out of sync and choppier than usual as he's recording from Japan on his travel writing laptop. I've done what I can to fix it, but apologies if it isn't quite up to the usual extraordinary standards of Monster Mash.

Episode 73: An Artiste Vs Gogmazios

The Other Three — Wed, 21 Feb 2018 06:01:00 +0000

Elder Dragon Month continues! A three-man cast this week, bringing you our longest, and possibly stupidest, episode to date. Andy and Jas have fought Gogmazios before, but Jay and Luke haven't. Luke's too busy being in Japan like a big weeaboo, but Jay's here and ready to draw a picture of Gogmazios based on Andy and Jas' descriptions. Look at the album art to see how that turned out . . . Links of note: What Gogmazios actually looks like MH3U Scottish Advert Hunter

Episode 72: Mavericks VS Valphalk

Gintendo Namer — Wed, 14 Feb 2018 18:37:50 +0000

The design, hunt and ecology of the Valphalk.

Episode 71: Samurai VS Lao Shan Lung

Gintendo Namer — Wed, 07 Feb 2018 10:28:05 +0000

The design, hunt and ecology of the Lao Shan Lung.

Episode 70: Five Seamen Set Sail to a New World

The Fifth Fleet — Wed, 31 Jan 2018 04:47:01 +0000

The lads are raring to get hunting in Monster Hunter World, but we've kindly decided to take some time to chat about our early impressions of the game. We've roped in Muss (who you may have heard drunkenly chatting about monsters back on our previous project Guesstus Flask) to give a new player's perspective. This one's edited by Jay as Luke is otherwise indisposed travelling to a new world himself (read: Japan) so if it doesn't sound up to scratch, please tweet any complaints to @buskalilly. Enjoy!

Episode 69: Horny Devils Vs Monoblos and Diablos

Gintendo Namer — Wed, 24 Jan 2018 10:02:56 +0000

The design, hunt and ecology of Monoblos and Diablos.

Episode 68: Arachnophobes Vs Nerscylla

Gintendo Namer — Wed, 17 Jan 2018 09:38:52 +0000

The design, hunt and ecology of the Nerscylla and Shrouded Nerscylla.

Episode 67: Kings Vs Congalala

The Fated Four — Wed, 10 Jan 2018 09:02:44 +0000

We know there's been some long ones lately, about some big serious wyverns, but here's a nice sensible length episode about a monster who isn't very sensible at all. Expert farts, burbs and silliness as we discuss a big stupid monkey.

Episode 66: Boys and Men Vs Basarios and Gravios

Gintendo Namer — Wed, 03 Jan 2018 07:47:56 +0000

Its the first Monster Mash of 2018 and its a bit of a long one as we cover two monsters: little baby Basarios and big bad Gravios. Some of us completed Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, so we may be a little tired of these monsters . . .

Episode 65: Drunkards Vs Giadrome

The Farted Four — Mon, 25 Dec 2017 00:28:28 +0000

Merry Christmas! Because you've been good this year, we're releasing our Giadrome episode a week early. He's a snow monster, it counts as a Christmas special. Also, it features a spectacularly drunk Andrew Rice who has just returned from a Christmas party. If you like sensible monster chat, but dislike "the bantz", maybe give this one a miss. See you next year for better episodes about better monsters.

Episode 64: Lads Vs Barroth

The Fated Four — Wed, 20 Dec 2017 10:19:04 +0000

Bloody hell, its only a proper episode of Monster Mash! We talk about the brute wyvern Barroth in our continuing mission to cover all the monsters in Monster Hunter XX, and spend an inordinately long time arguing about the weird Barroth none of us have even encountered yet in Monster Hunter Stories.

Episode 63: Beta Males Without Their Alpha

The Other Three — Wed, 13 Dec 2017 07:36:00 +0000

A slightly different episode this week, as the three PS4-owning members of the crew chat some sugar about the almighty Monster Hunter World and their experience of that game's beta. Don't worry, Luke will be back next week to discuss imaginary dinosaurs and dragons in excruciating detail.

Episode 62: Man Vs Barioth

The Fated Four — Wed, 06 Dec 2017 08:46:14 +0000

And so it begins: we kick off our coverage of the Monster Hunter XX monsters with the Barioth. Its a mercifully shorter episode than the last couple. Just a sensible amount of chat about a cool Sabre-toothed wyvern.

Episode 61: Da (butter) lamadur

The Fated Four — Wed, 29 Nov 2017 08:00:19 +0000

Another big, long elder dragon this week which means another long episode. Let me tell you, there are some strong opinions in the house about this big snake!

Episode 60: Dah'ren (In Black) Mohran

The Fated Four — Wed, 22 Nov 2017 08:16:52 +0000

This week we're hunting the big boy who bookends Monster Hunter 4, the Darren Mohran. There's a lot of chat about this fella, so strap in. There's also an awful lot of post-cast hunt chat, so if you're not a fan of "the bantz" get your thumb ready to skip to the end.

Episode 59: Great Jaggi With It

Gintendo Namer — Wed, 15 Nov 2017 11:01:20 +0000

The design, hunt and ecology of the Jaggi, Jaggia and Great Jaggi.

Episode 58: Season One Outtakes Special

The Farted Four — Wed, 25 Oct 2017 22:47:44 +0100

No new monster chat this week, but if you like hearing us talk absolute shit, you're in for a treat! We might be taking a week or two off but then we'll be back to work our way through the monsters of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and Monster Hunter Double Cross. See ya!

Episode 57: Small Monsters (Part 2 of 2)

Gintendo Namer — Wed, 18 Oct 2017 10:55:20 +0100

The designs, hunts and ecologies of various small monsters.

Episode 56: Small Monsters Part 1 of 2

The Fated Four — Wed, 11 Oct 2017 09:40:54 +0100

Something slightly different this week: a collection of the smaller monsters which appear in Monster Hunter Double Cross. Luke thinks he's funny, Jay plays along, Andy shows a surprisingly tender side and Jas reveals himself to be a LEGIT PSYCHOPATH.

Episode 55: The Lads Hunt an Alatreon

The Fated Four — Wed, 04 Oct 2017 10:16:22 +0100

Here we go then, the final large monster in Monster Hunter Generations. As always Andy is sleepy, Jas is interrupting, Jay barely recognises the monster and Luke is struggling valiantly to keep everything on track. Next week we have a special on small monsters and after that will be an outtakes collection. Soon after we're kicking off a new season of the podcast with all the monsters from Monster Hunter 4U and Monster Hunter XX that we haven't covered yet!

Episode 54: 若者はキツネをアマツマガツチる (Amatsu)

The Fated Four — Wed, 27 Sep 2017 11:42:47 +0100

Ohayōgozaimasu! Wakamono wa Amatsugamatsuchi o karu. Tanoshinde!

Episode 53: The Uncles Bury a Ukanlos

The Fated Four — Wed, 20 Sep 2017 09:13:45 +0100

This week, we’re hunting the white god Ukanlos! Or as Andy prefers to call him, Shovel Knight. Andy isn’t with us this week, Luke’s much too sleepy and Jay is struggling to keep the podcast on track. Then at the end, listen to some highlights from the hunt where Ukanlos gives us a proper kicking.

Episode 52: The Head Honchos Lick a Chameleos

The Fated Four — Wed, 13 Sep 2017 09:42:40 +0100

We were recording after 9 in the evening again this week so although you're getting some quality chat about an interesting monster, the hunt highlights include lots of talk about whether Jay does or does not like licking ladies' bits. Sorry not sorry.

Episode 51: The Proud Lords Double Cross a Teostra

The Fated Four — Wed, 06 Sep 2017 07:12:49 +0100

This week, we're hunting the Teostra. Now in HD! Other than that . . . look, we recorded this a week ago and I'm pretty tired right now so I know about as much as you about what we did or didn't say!

Episode 50: The Most Dangerous Monster of All - With Joe Skrebels

The Unlucky Five — Wed, 30 Aug 2017 09:46:28 +0100

For a bonus sized fiftieth episode the lads are joined by Joe Skrebels, the go-to man for British podcasts about Monster Hunter, to discuss the greatest monster of all: man. Luke tries and fails to keep things on topic, Jay is almost helpful, Andy is starstruck, Jas has loud people in his house and Joe thinks we should ban this sick filth.

Episode 49: The Aunties Give Akantor a Knuckle Sandwich

The Fated Four — Wed, 23 Aug 2017 07:21:11 +0100

This week we're talking about the big, spiky brute who doesn't fit in: the Akantor. He's not an elder dragon but he sure as hell can't fly. I think he needs a hug . . .

Episode 48: Dutch Men Stone a Kushala Daora

The Fated Four — Wed, 16 Aug 2017 09:00:11 +0100

In a surprisingly musical episode, the lads hunt the metal elder dragon Kushala Daora. Andy will apparently sing on demand, Jay is putting in hard work and apparently not only does Luke think Jas is Dutch, he's forgotten what's Dutch and what's Swedish. He had some of a beer. . . Songs: Sewn- The Feeling You Only Live Twice - Nancy Sinatra Goldfinger - Shirley Bassey Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger - Daft Punk

Episode 47: The Savages Devour a Deviljho

The Fated Four — Wed, 09 Aug 2017 07:38:43 +0100

The design, hunt and ecology of the Deviljho and Savage Deviljho.

Episode 46: The Fighters Kamehameha a Rajang

The Fated Four — Wed, 02 Aug 2017 19:00:00 +0100

KA ME HA ME HAAAA! Jay gets to let all of his inner weeaboo out and talk about Dragonball Z, Luke gets to bring up King Kong again, Andy makes monkey noises and Jas acts smug about not fainting. It's the bad boy of Monster Hunter, the Rajang!

Episode 45: The Ducks Munch an Agnaktor

The Fated Four — Wed, 26 Jul 2017 09:50:00 +0100

The design, hunt and ecology of the Uroktor, Agnaktor and Glacial Agnaktor.

Episode 44: The Geologists Squirt a Lavasioth

The Fated Four — Wed, 19 Jul 2017 18:33:00 +0100

What's the difference between lava and magma? Find out in another educational edition of Monster Mash. We also discuss Monster Hunter Frontier at length in a desperate attempt to squeeze out 15 minutes of audio content about the bloody Lavasioth.

Episode 43: The Dragonborn Conquer a Duramboros

The Fated Four — Wed, 12 Jul 2017 20:47:00 +0100

This week the lads climb the mighty disco mountain and tell you what they can see. Luke spends the podcast slowly melting into a supine position, so sorry for the steady drop in audio quality. Links of note: Sker Buffalo Shagga, Son of Dolf The Dovakhiin

Episode 42: War for the Planet of the Kecha Wacha

The Fated Four — Wed, 05 Jul 2017 20:11:47 +0100

The boys somehow squeeze a whole 42nd episode out of the Kecha Wacha. He's a damned dirty ape who inexplicably is only in high rank for Monster Hunter Generations. Links of note: Kecak Regular Features Episode 244 Planet of the Apes

Episode 41: Fat Lads Harpoon a Zamtrios

The Fated Four — Wed, 28 Jun 2017 07:39:05 +0100

He's cool, he's tough, he's sometimes a hilarious fat space hopper idiot: the biggest shark you know, Zamtrios! We also discuss the little ones and the desert one, then we make fun of him for being fat because we're hypocrites.

Episode 40: The Absolute Boys Gore a Shagaru Magala

The Fated Four — Wed, 21 Jun 2017 20:36:59 +0100

It is far too hot to be mucking about talking about pretend dragons on the internet, but these three heroes have done it anyway for your listening pleasure. Enjoy their nonsense about Shaggy himself, the Shagaru Magala!

Episode 39: The Troubadours Rock a Kirin

The Fated Four — Wed, 14 Jun 2017 13:00:00 +0100

This week the boys hunt the Kirin, the lightning unicorn who won't FUCKING SIT STILL. Kirin is actually one of the only monsters in the Monster Hunter series directly based on a mythical creature, the Kirin or Qilin, which is kind of the Japanese unicorn. Also! Stay to the end for a short excerpt from the boys' thoughts on Monster Hunter World and Monster Hunter XX. The full version of that reaction can be found on youtube.

Episode 38: The Naughty Children Shag a Gore Magala

The Fated Four — Wed, 07 Jun 2017 20:10:27 +0100

This week, the lads lament the terrifying, ancient monster that spreads chaos through the land, Theresa May. They also discuss the Gore Magala, while overly committing to the joke that they don't know what it matures into.

Episode 37: The Sex Pistols Abolish The Seltas Queen

The Fated Four — Wed, 31 May 2017 20:27:36 +0100

This week, Luke "Terrified of Insects" Summerhayes scarpered at the sight of the Seltas Queen which leaves Andy, Jay and Jas to soldier on and take on the Neopteron menace. Is she a scorpion? A spider? A beetle? An earwig? Listen on to find out!

Episode 36: The 90s Kids Pound a Brachydios

The Fated Four — Wed, 24 May 2017 22:03:24 +0100

The design, hunt and ecology of the Brachydios.

Episode 35: The Swordsmen Slice a Seregios

Mr Worldwide — Wed, 17 May 2017 22:17:39 +0100

Depending on whether you listen to Monster Mash for interesting monster discussion or top-tier bantz, this is either the best or worst episode yet. In their attempt to discuss the Seregios, the boys somehow discuss Mr. Worldwide himself, Pitbull, Andy's half-remembered gaming and whether a handjob from Steve is better or worse than voting Tory. (The answer is better. Anything is better).

Episode 34: The Digidestined CQC a Tigrex

The S.H.I.E.L.D — Wed, 10 May 2017 23:19:08 +0100

He's loud, he's aggressive, he's everyone's favourite dinosaur/ tiger hybrid, the Tigrex! Join Jay, Jas, Luke but not Andy as they manage to talk about Digimon, Dark Souls and Metal Gear. It's all relevant, I swear! Kinda.

Episode 33: The Pack Usurp a Zinogre

The Fated Four — Thu, 04 May 2017 00:14:18 +0100

Get ready to wolf down some delicious audio #content as the Monster Mashers wax lyrical about the noble Zinogre. He's cool, he's tough, he's got a certified banger of a tune and his edgelord subspecies drives all the main ones wild. Enjoy!

Episode 32: The Crew Curse a Nakarkos

The Fated Four — Wed, 26 Apr 2017 02:59:00 +0100

Join Monster Mash down in Davey Jones' Locker to follow up our series on the Fated Four with an episode on the Nakarkos. Jay manages to suppress his hatred of squids and Luke successfully passes off "I watched Clash of the Titans for the monster bits" as knowledge of Ancient Greek mythology and literature.

Episode 31: The Westerners Cross Swords with a Glavenus

The Fated Four — Wed, 19 Apr 2017 23:11:07 +0100

Sometimes you want an elegantly designed, super interesting design for an animal that takes inspiration from nature, mythology and the human condition. Other times you want a big fire-breathing dinosaur with a sword for a tail. The last of the Fated Four, the Glavenus.

Episode 30: Them Southern Boys Clash with an Astalos

The Fated Four — Thu, 13 Apr 2017 17:38:43 +0100

Look! Up in the sky! Is it a bug? Is it a dragon? No, actually, it's a wyvern. Listen to the Monster Mash weeabos wax lyrical about the Astalos. EDITED: This podcast was previously uploaded with the last line accidentally cut short, the bit where Jay called back to Luke's joke has been reinstated. Also a couple of awkward pauses have been removed. Enjoy!

Episode 29: The Northerners Stomp on a Gammoth

The Fated Four — Wed, 05 Apr 2017 23:31:04 +0100

This week, we continue to discuss the fated four with an episode on the Gammoth, or Glammoth if you're Jay. We're getting to the point where the clips you hear at the end, from us hunting the monster, are not going so well if we don't wear armour.

Episode 28: The Easterners Outfox a Mizutsune

The Fated Four — Wed, 29 Mar 2017 11:29:00 +0100

This week, the boys kick off the fated four with the elegant dancing bubble fox, Mizutsune! They talk Japan, dragons, kimonos and slip 'n' slides. Jay wasn't around for the pre-recording no armour hunt, so all three of the others managed to faint twice. Shambolic.

Episode 27: The Hosts Mine an Uragaan

The Fated Four — Thu, 23 Mar 2017 00:34:46 +0000

Here he is. Jay Leno himself. The Crimson Chin. Our very first Brute Wyvern, the Uragaan! He eats rocks, he's covered in lava, he made all of us faint in our pre-podcast hunting! Also: fruit pastille chat and our best audio ever. It's almost good enough for me to recommend for human ears!

Episode 26: The Veterans Dunk a Lagiacrus

The Fated Four — Wed, 15 Mar 2017 23:04:51 +0000

The star of three of the four boys' first Monster Hunter games, the Lagiacrus! We discuss his history, how he's changed for Generations and the inspirations. We also speculate wildly about what we want and expect from Monster Hunter V. For the first time, we each recorded separately instead of recording the skype call! Unfortunately, Luke had his headphones too loud and was using the laptop mic. Gone are the skype glitches, in is a slight annoying echo. Sorry! Soon we'll have good audio like a proper podcast, promise!

Episode 25: The Champions Spell Calamity for a Blangonga

The Fated Four — Wed, 08 Mar 2017 23:25:34 +0000

Despite being our shortest episode yet, we manage more tangents than a maths lesson. Marvel as we discuss yetis, King Kong, Donkey Kong and Breath of the Wild while occasionally mentioning the Blangonga in passing.

Episode 24: The Anglers Hook a Plesioth

The Fated Four — Wed, 01 Mar 2017 11:00:00 +0000

He's a fish on legs and he is not as cool as official artwork would have you believe. This week, the boys engage in a bit of extreme fishing as they tackle the ultimate river monster, the Plesioth. Jay's been reading up on the dinosaur book Luke sent him for Christmas, Jas doesn't like the big fishy bastard and Andy needs to get his hip checked.

Episode 23: The Kings Krush a Yian Garuga

The Fated Four — Wed, 22 Feb 2017 23:57:08 +0000

This week, the boys return to hunt the hyper aggressive Yian Garuga. Learn some biology, some history and some unpleasant truths; like what birds look like without feathers (picture below). This episode sponsored by KFC. The joke is that anyone would pay us for this nonsense . . .

Episode 22: The Jesters Stalk a Malfestio

The Fated Four — Wed, 15 Feb 2017 17:33:00 +0000

Jesters to the left of me, owls to the right, here I am stuck in the middle with hoot. This week, we're fighting the weirdest owl around, the Malfestio.

Episode 21: The Conquistadores Whack a Najarala

The Fated Four — Wed, 08 Feb 2017 21:20:28 +0000

Snakes are weird and the Najarala is pretty much a snake. Jay wants to know what's going on with the arms, Luke's a bit freaked out, Jaster's an aerial insect glaive wizard and Andy isn't all this new-fangled pish.

Episode 20: The Bosses Bust a Rathalos

The Fated Four — Wed, 01 Feb 2017 23:40:47 +0000

This is our longest episode yet, but to be fair it is the mighty Rathalos! Also, last week was our shortest ever, so deal with it. This is the main man, the firey wyvern who rules the roost, the king of the skies. Marvel as Luke manages to find legitimate reasons to bring up Transformers, Metal Gear and Nicki Minaj.

Episode 19: Ronin Duel a Shogun Ceanataur

The Fated Four — Thu, 26 Jan 2017 00:16:40 +0000

Join a very excited Luke, Jay and Jas to crack John Cena jokes and enthuse about the slicin', dicin' Shogun Ceanataur while a very sleepy Andy continues to not understand wrestling.

Episode 18: Chaps on the Prowl for a Nargacuga

The Fated Four — Thu, 19 Jan 2017 00:29:54 +0000

Look! In the sky! It's a bat! It's a panther! No, it's Nargacuga! One of the most popular monsters about, the sleek, catlike ninja Nargacuga is a big hit with the Monster Mash lads as well. Even if they can't decide if it's a panther, a bat or the predator.

Episode 17: The Crew Crashes a Volvidon

The Fixed Four — Thu, 12 Jan 2017 00:53:20 +0000

This week, we hunt the monster that well and truly gives Jay the boke: the Volvidon. He's big, red, not a car, he rolls, he shits everywhere and that is one creepy tongue. Prepare to be amazed at how much one man can hate a fictional armadillo bear, and how many tangents we can take when trying to explain it.

Episode 16: The Republicans Behead A Rathian

The Fated Four — Fri, 06 Jan 2017 00:17:16 +0000

The lads discuss The Queen of the Land, the Rathian. Luke is glad to see Monster Hunter understand the distinction between Wyverns and Dragons, Jay wants to lure children to a park, Andy doesn't think Rathian is very pretty and nobody wants their land to even have a queen. Happy new year! Do scroll down and look at all the social media/ sharing stuff. Let's make 2017 the year of Monster Mash!

A Christmas Barrel (Bomb)

The Festive Four — Sun, 25 Dec 2016 02:09:51 +0000

Sorry about this. In a desperate attempt to put out something festive, and have a small amount of content about Monster Hunter Double Cross and the potential film project, here is a weird Christmas Carol thing about us trying to make Andy less of a fanny. Includes some amusing outtakes and extended scenes from the first year of Monster Mash. More of the usual, actually good, content coming soon. Love you. Merry Christmas.

Episode 15: The Gents Penetrate a Khezu

The Fated Four — Thu, 22 Dec 2016 00:26:06 +0000

No, we're not telling porkies, it really is the episode you've been gagging for. Stand to attention and get ready for us to thrust some juicy chat your way. The long and short of it is this episode we get down and dirty with the no-eyed cave snake himself, the Khezu.

Episode 14: The Posse Slaughters A Gypceros

The Fated Four — Fri, 16 Dec 2016 06:39:08 +0000

This week, enjoy stimulating conversation about the Gypceros. We discuss the fascinating hunt, with the stealing and sleeping and poison and flashing, the visual design and the armour. We also have a very uncomfortable discussion about the name, in which we try very hard but probably fail to not be offensive. Really Capcom!?

Episode 13: The Group Commit Regicide on a Royal Ludroth

The Fated Four — Wed, 07 Dec 2016 19:27:51 +0000

The boys are up late for a slightly delirious podcast about the Ludroth and the Royal Ludroth. Somehow they get onto Lion King 2 and sleepily hallucinate about Resident Evil 4 and donuts.

Episode 12: These Jokers Clobber An Iodrome

The Fated Four — Wed, 30 Nov 2016 17:19:00 +0000

For the last time, the lads struggle to fill an episode with chat about a pretty normal dinosaur. Luke does his paleontologist thing, Jay thinks it will be really funny to make him repeat himself, Andy needs Jay to explain the joke and Jas tells Andy off for forgetting his PE Kit. Next week, we can get on with some interesting dinosaurs!

Episode 11: A Basket of Deplorables Trump a Lagombi

The Fated Four — Wed, 23 Nov 2016 15:54:17 +0000

This week we chat about the big snow beasty, the Lagombi. Is it a rabbit? Luke knows nothing about Ireland, Andy knows a little too much about vibrators, Jas mocks Luke's accent and Jay is on a bus. Will he get home in time to save this train wreck of a podcast? You''l have to listen to find out!

Episode 10: The Fellas Slap A Nibelsnarf

Fantastic Monsters and Where to Mash Them — Wed, 16 Nov 2016 19:00:00 +0000

To celebrate the release of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, with all its ridiculously named J.K Rowling creatures, the boys get gobby about the equally stupidly named Nibelsnarf. Luke has a very rude awakening, Jay briefly wonders if the Nibelsnarf was real, Andy throws himself into his role and, during the hunt, Jas thinks tripping us all up with his Insect Glaive is the perfect response to seeing us try and fish the 'snarf out of a hole.

Episode 9: The Colonels Fry A Yian Kut-Ku

The Best Three — Wed, 09 Nov 2016 20:00:00 +0000

Recording just before the US Elections, everyone apart from Andy discusses the big angry chicken Yian Kut-Ku. What does he eat? Would he be tasty fried up with 11 secret herbs and spices? All these questions and more are answered!

Episode 8: Your Heroes Battle a Velocidrome

The Fated Four — Wed, 02 Nov 2016 20:00:00 +0000

That's right, boys and girls, the monster you've all been waiting for! The most interesting bit of creature design in all of gaming, the Velocidrome and the Velociprey! It's a dinosaur, right, but it's blue. Luke does his palaeontologist thing again, Jay tries his very best to make the attack patterns sound interesting, Jas is a big fan of reptiles and Andy is dealing with some serious fears. Nobody was dreading the Velocidrome like Andrew Rice . . .

Episode 7: Everyone Dies to A Tetsucabra

The Fated Four — Wed, 26 Oct 2016 22:00:00 +0100

This week, the squad deal with the demon toad Tetsucabra and the deviant form, the Drilltusk Tetsucabra. Luke is badly hungover, Jay and Jas share their Bane impressions and Andy is so glad to experience a hunt where he's the only one who doesn't faint he could die. In fact, he invites you to murder him.

Episode 6: Some Twats Knock Heads With a Cephadrome

The Fated Four — Wed, 19 Oct 2016 22:00:00 +0100

This week, the crew hunts the super interesting Cephadrome and therefore remain completely on topic. Andy's trying to host, Jay is ill, Jas is a Scottish Twat and Luke sounds like he's recording gagged in the boot of a car. Enjoy! Next week we'll be at full quality again, I'm sure.

Episode 5: A Trio Bothers an Arzuros

Everyone but Jas :( — Wed, 12 Oct 2016 23:28:36 +0100

In an inversion of Goldilocks, here's three humans facing one bear! James Stewart is presumably hibernating, so a slightly smaller team than normal convened to discuss the Arzuros and the deviant monster, the Redhelm Arzuros! Luke waxes lyrical about his most beloved animal, Jay shills our other podcast and Andy is a murderous bear poacher.

Episode 4: The Lads Fight a Gendrome

A bag of tiny crackers — Wed, 05 Oct 2016 23:47:15 +0100

This week, the Monster Mash team deal with what is, basically, a dinosaur. Get used to that. On the other hand, though, it is a dinosaur! Dinosaurs are cool, and fighting packs of them with a big sword is pretty sick! These ones have long vampire fangs, it's very interesting. Get hype! Then, in the excerpts from our hunt, Andy reveals that he really is as switched off as we all assume.

Episode 3: The Team Cracks a Daimyo Hermitaur

The Fated Four — Thu, 29 Sep 2016 00:49:33 +0100

From small crabs, to big crabs, to giant enemy crabs, the Hermitaurs get their turn in the spotlight this week. The boys discuss how cool it is to wear a skull, like a bunch of 16-year-olds who just discovered Metallica. Also: how to be considerate to dogs in firework season. Plus, in the hunt extracts at the end, a good ol' fashioned Monster Hunter singalong!

Episode 2: The Squad Slay a Bulldrome

The Fated Four — Thu, 22 Sep 2016 00:56:13 +0100

In episode 2, we discuss the Bulldrome and its smaller cousins, the Bullfango and the Bullswine. We go into the fight, the hilarious mount and paralysis animations, the origins of the name and all kinds of nonsense along the way.

Episode 1: The Boys Hunt A Great Maccao

The Fated Four — Wed, 14 Sep 2016 23:50:52 +0100

Welcome to Monster Mash, where each week we'll be having a little chat about a different Monster Hunter monster. We're starting with Monster Hunter Generations because it's fresh and relevant, it has monsters from throughout the whole series and we've definitely all played it. That does mean, ridiculously, our first episode is one of the newest monsters. Deal with it.

Trailer!

The Fated Four — Thu, 01 Sep 2016 08:05:19 +0100

Monster Mash will be a weekly podcast about the various monsters of the Monster Hunter games; their design, their ecology, their origins and their hunts!
