Daft Monks
Half talk show, half improv comedy campaign, Daft Monks is a modern pop culture podcast for nerds and sadists alike. Join us every Monday (ish) for funny anecdotes, useless trivia, and the latest installment of our storytelling adventure. Season 3 starts the story anew and explores a bleak, cyberpunk future where the unlikeliest of friends become enemies of the state.
Seasons 1 and 2 feature our previous campaign, starring the notoriously inept monster hunters Abraham Van Helsing and Trevor Belmont. Formerly known as Nat1 Presents: The Podcast, the show is hosted by Nate Casimiro and Nate Stalcup.
