Date 121 - Mummy’s Day

We at Monster Crush have to apologize, we took a little break and were a little out of practice. So, while we wanted to celebrate Mothers’ Day and all the wonderful monster mommies out there, we weren’t paying attention to our spelling and… Well, we’re celebrating Mummy’s Day and all the monster mummies instead this year. So grab a protective spell and wrap both your date and your tool (even if it’s being used to scramble brains) for the MUMMY!Featuring: We’re doing this until we die - preferred pet names - LD’s Smut Corner: Everyone’s favorite BG3 vampire gets an origin story - mummies are everywhere and are a lot older than we thought - how to make a mummy - white people get weird with mummies… like really weird - 180,000 mummified cats - the curse (or not) of King Tutankhamun’s Tomb - the real Imhotep - AND MORE!CW: Fictional predatory relationships (15:35-22:15), description of the mummification process (32:25-39:00), discussions of the weird and bad qualities of colonialism including desecration of corpses, medicinal cannibalism, and fetishization/othering of non-European cultures (39:00-1:21:00), animal death (55:45-56:10), human deaths attributed to curses (55:00-60:02)We are proud to be a part of the Sword & Key Network - beacons.ai/swordandkey.
