Welcome to the Monsters and Treasure podcast where Kevin and Daniel talk way too long about a subject and just give you the best parts. We started this podcast with the idea of talking about D&D, but we also plan on talking books, movies and other media - let us know what you’d like to hear. Daniel @Bandit’s Keep started playing back in 1981 with the B/X set KR @DDHomebrew started with the boxed set and now runs 5E, and specializes in homebrewing campaign settings.
