The D&D Monster Man Is Back and Feelin’ Frisky
You know, I was all set to poke fun at Brad Knight, the guy who does all the voices of the Dungeons & Dragons monsters, for hit utter lack of shame when coming up with these voices. I was ready to laugh at the guys behind Chad Vader (the gents naming the monsters to be imitated) for their “Monsters in Love” theme this episode. But goddamn it if Knight doesn’t do the voices so well that I can’t be anything but impressed. I have exactly zero doubt that Knight not only nailed what a Gibbering Mouther sounds like, but also what a Gibbering Mouther sounds like when it’s getting aroused. Well done, sir. Well done indeed. Thanks to Almighty Spock and Caterpillar Homicide for the tip.
