    We are taking a break!

    Hello! We are announcing that we are taking a bit of an extended break. Both of us have been quite busy lately (ugh responsibilities) and are tired. We have been working on this awesome project for a few years now but felt we were losing some steam. This break is meant to rejuvenate us! We love talking about monsters and would like to continue in the future. Thank you to everyone who has listened to us! We seriously appreciate every single listener and supporter of this podcast! We still cannot believe people were interested in what we had to say. Special shout out to all of our Patreon supporters, who have really been amazing to us. We will keep you posted on our social media channels and Brenda will continue to post on those once in a while. Hasta luego Monstras!
