"I see you, humans"

[@mach6794]

It’s wild how I saw the Helldivers bugs and me and all my D&D friends were like “damn that’s just Ankhegs”

[@mulgra]

Your content is always awesome to watch 🤟

[@Mal-bp2sp]

I’ve never been so early to a video 😂 This is going to sound so dumb but I always binge Dungeoncast while I’m getting ready for work every morning. Best part of my day.

[@wesleybutcher3389]

One of my fav monsters! Thanks guys !

[@cdr1179]

Tarantula hawk is the wasp you were talking about.

[@ManOfSteel6153]

Aw hell yeah, another banger vid to listen to at work 😤 Shout-out to Demigorgon 🙌🏽

[@MasterTilt]

We need Illian and Beern merch.

[@tattedupgamer8519]

Tarantula hawk is what the wasp is called. And Mantid females will sometimes eat the male bodies but do not always kill the males after mating.

[@paulcann17]

I'm pretty sure it's been said that they don't use their spray unless threatened because secretion means they have to empty their supply and thus won't be able to eat until it replenishes

[@heathstephens4068]

Glad to have another monster video! Thanks guys!

[@NamelessKing1597]

Thanks for reading my comment (next episode: I also listen on Spotify) on the Olhydra episode, it was a reference to a sea shanty sung in the hanging scene in Pirates of the Carribean: At World's End.

[@thewholesomecultist6702]

i thought this had something to do with hags and was so excited :'3 i cant wait to see some hag deep dives for specfic ones

[@ithinkillpass9056]

I would run this creature without having object permanence so if the players had behind a rock, it would forget they were there

[@Shakkarz]

Guys are talking about giant ants then you should see-- "them"!! it's a old black and white one of my favorites

[@GhostlyGrimace]

I BEEN WAITING ON THIS ONE‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

[@BryantVonMiller]

Ankhegs from the first Baldur's Gate game, were such pains to combat.

[@shadomain7918]

the 1950s B+W ant movie is called "Them". Because... I guess that seemed cool back then?

[@jonathanhallberg3009]

Think you guys can make a video about the Kruthiks in the future?

[@mosshivenetwork117]

Buggies!
