What Is Kill Every Monster?

We are an ENnie-nominated, Audioverse Award-winning, Dungeons and Dragons podcast about every monster in the manual.  

Why Monsters?

Dungeons & Dragons is many things to many people, but it was designed to be a game about killing monsters. We examine the lore and mechanics of each creature and ask a central question: are they really a monster?

What Is The Show About?

Co-hosts Dylan and Aram are joined by a guest for a DM-deep-dive into a classic D&D monster. The first part is a discussion, and the second is a one-shot Actual Play where our guest takes on the role of the monster.

Each episode of Kill Every Monster is a contained story, so you never have to worry about being caught up or listening out of order.

Kill Every Monster won three Audioverse Awards in 2022: Best Players (Mimic and Aboleth) and Best Improvised Production.
