Monster House Presents.

This is the ad-supported version of Monster Talk. We're dependent upon the revenue from these ads

and from the support of our patrons at patreon.com forward slash Monster Talk to continue making

this show. As a disclaimer, your hosts are unable to control what ads you will hear,

and while we have done what we can to avoid ads that are divisive,

the system that ejects them sometimes ignores our preferences

and always seems to ignore our efforts to not interrupt the conversational flow.

While we understand this can be disruptive, we're trying our best.

Patreon remains the best way to enjoy commercial-free listening to our content,

plus you generally get extended coverage of the subject.

We're working on other ways to consume our content as well, so please stay tuned. There they go.

Let it down.
