- 19 - Godzilla vs. Mothra (1992) with Donny Winter
Mothra enters the 90s, and she's only gotten more beautiful with age! Poet and YouTuber Donny Winter joins us for the Heisei era's turn to fantasy, as ancient alien Mothra and her fairies from a fallen civilization try to save us all from her edgy Hot Topic goth counterpart Battra and a very angry Godzilla. We talk about the wild previous versions of the script, all the throwbacks to the Showa era (and Indiana Jonesreferences), the weird underuse of ACTUAL PSYCHIC Miki Saegusa, and much more.

Wed, 13 Nov 2024 - 1h 52min - 18 - Ebirah, Horror of the Deep (1966)
Crank up the surf rock for a day at the beach and a nice lobster dinner, because we're talking the time Godzilla fought a giant crustacean! This low-key island adventure features a major changing of the guard behind-the-scenes, resulting in a fun and unique James Bond-inspired story where a ragtag group of misfits find themselves working with sleepy kaiju to stop a terrorist organization. We talk about Mothra as a honk-shoo queen and Godzilla as a tired dad, budget cuts, how the end of the studio system resulted in Jun Fukuda becoming the new Godzilla guy (whether he liked it or not), and more!

Tue, 08 Oct 2024 - 1h 14min - 16 - GMK (2001) with Chris McDonald
Let's get supernatural with this J-Horror take on Godzilla! Chris McDonald (author of the upcoming Daikaiju Rumble) joins us for the unusual Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack(aka GMK),which features Godzilla as a malicious manifestation of many angry ghosts. It's WILD! We talk about the reinvention of King Ghidorah as a nice friendly dragon alongside a wasp-like Mothra and literal underdog Baragon, how we almost got another Anguirus appearance, and what makes this all so deeply tied to lifelong rival Gamera.

Fri, 27 Sep 2024 - 1h 41min - 15 - Frankenstein vs. Baragon (1965)
Frankenstein's monster is a kaiju?! In one of the weirder entries in Toho's monster canon (localized as Frankenstein Conquers the World), the modern Prometheus is a regenerative caveman-like being born from the atomic bomb who grows to colossal size. Also, an adorable subterranean puppy comes from below to fight him. We talk about the very first collaboration between Toho and American producers, and the resulting conflict among Ishirō Honda's desire to honor the classicFrankensteinstory, Toho's desire to make another giant monster movie, and America's desire to have a random octopus for some reason.

Fri, 13 Sep 2024 - 2h 03min - 14 - Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah (1991) with Jayce
Hop into your time machine and pilot your Mecha, because Godzilla expert Jayce joins us for King Ghidorah's entrance into the Heisei era! This fantastical sci-fi romp is a response to America's blockbusters like Back to the Futureand a celebration of Showa era monster fights, but it's also surprisingly wrapped up in Japanese/American economic relations (yes, we're talking about the economy again.) We also get into the complicated time travel that explores Godzilla's origins, Kawakita's special effects, the loveable and Terminator-esque M-11 Android, and of course, the time Godzilla cried.

Tue, 13 Aug 2024 - 2h 16min - 13 - Invasion of Astro-Monster (1965)
Godzilla goes to spaaaace! In a movie that's way more alien invasion space opera than kaiju, the hilariously-dressed Xiliens from Planet X introduce us to Monster Zero (aka Ghidorah) and get Earth wrapped in a convoluted plot involving trapping sleepy Godzilla and Rodan in bubbles. We talk the first American-Japanese co-production for Toho -- which includes a major role for Rebel Without a Cause's Nick Adams and a complex English/Japanese language shoot -- along with space lady clones, a backslide in character dynamics, and of course, Godzilla's famous little dance and its surprisingly important ramifications.

Sat, 13 Jul 2024 - 2h 20min - 12 - Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster (1964)
It's Hot Ghidorah Summer, and the planet-destroying space dragon king has made his entrance! This is the movie where everything changes: it's cosmic, it's an Avengers-style team-up among Godzilla, Mothra, and Rodan, and perhaps most importantly, it's the moment Godzilla becomes a hero to cheer for. We talk about this film's shift in philosophy and Ishirō Honda's complicated feelings, along with a Biollante-esque plot that includes psychic prophecies, a Venusian spirit possessing a princess, assassins, and Hiroshi Koizumi being the hottest man to ever rock a yellow raincoat and bucket hat.

Thu, 27 Jun 2024 - 2h 19min - 11 - Rodan (1956)
It's a bird, it's a plane... it's Rodan, the giant flying monster! But would you believe it's also a horror movie delving into the plight of the underclass through the lens of coal miners, a sci-fi movie with killer bugs, andthat it has an absolutely unpredictable final act twist? We talk yet another fascinating enty from Ishirō Honda -- including what makes it so close to the original Godzilla,the advancements in Tsubaraya's miniatures, the gorgeous cinematography, gay dinosaurs, and more! Plus, we answer some listener mail.

What if the Oxygen Destroyer never stopped the original Godzilla? Turns out, it leads to a space gun that shoots black holes and a prehistoric dragonfly kaiju! Masaaki Tezuka's Aliens-inspired action romp features a mishmash of gory horror, comic book science fiction, and a wild fight...but is there any depth? We talk creepy bugs, digital effects, riding on Godzilla's back, and yes, that body slam.

Mon, 13 May 2024 - 1h 56min - 9 - Godzilla vs. Biollante (1989) with Gavin Mevius
Spring flowers are in bloom, and so is our girl Biollante! Gavin from The Mixed Reviews joins us for Kazuki Ōmori's masterful Heisei film featuring one of the wildest and most complex monster designs of all time. And the only chimera weirder than a Godzilla/rose/human hybrid is the movie itself -- a combo of 80s genetic horror, James Bond, teen psychics, and hover tanks that comes from a story by a dentist and features music by the Dragon Quest composer. We talk about this movie's strange conception, torch-passing to a new generation, genetic engineering fears, mindblowing special effects, and more!

Get egg-cited, because Mothra March concludes as the queen of the monsters first meets the king of the monsters! Part Mothrasequel, part Godzilla and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, this unpredictable ride features a cast of favorites and a crew operating on their A-games for one of the best Showa-era films. We talk Japan's real life economic boom and the resulting critiques on modern capitalism vs. ancient tradition, Mothra as a disappointed parent figure, the famous Skeleturtle, an extended conversation on the complexities of dubbing the Godzillafranchise, and much more!

Hatch from your cocoon, it's Mothra March! Hamish Steele (creator ofDead End: Paranormal Park and DeadEndia) is here for the gay icon and queen of the monsters' debut film--a fantastical fairy tale with tiny singing ladies that explores the horrors of corporate greed and colonization. We dig into the all-star cast and cartoonishly evil villain, the complicated portrayal of Infant Island's indigenous population, the America/Russia fusion, Toho's kaiju cinematic universe, and more!

The King of the Monsters fights the Eighth Wonder of the World in this massive crossover! The creative team behind the original Godzillareunited for this fascinating transition movie that’s half a meta satire of the corporate television industry, and half a silly wrestling match between two very anthropomorphized kaiju. We talk Ishirō Honda's attempts to make Toho's comedy celebration smarter, Eiji Tsubaraya's octopus obsession, the unfortunate Kong suit design, the VERY unfortunate racism (and its roots in King Kong as a whole), and how this movie changed Godzilla forever.

Tue, 13 Feb 2024 - 2h 09min - 5 - Godzilla 2000: Millennium (1999)
Godzilla does Y2K! The first installment of the Millennium era is an action-heavy sci-fi romp featuring aliens, technological fears, and a scrappy network of likeable Godzilla nerds... and it's very much a direct response to Roland Emmerich's 1998 American movie. We talk all about this amazing Godzilla design, all the Independence Dayreferences, some unfortunate digital effects (and an even more unfortunate human villain), and much more!

Sat, 13 Jan 2024 - 1h 52min - 4 - The Return of Godzilla (1984)
Godzilla gets rebooted for the 80s! The first film in the Heisei era is a lot of things: a sequel to the original, a bit of a remake, sometimes a horror movie with mummified corpses, sometimes a political Cold War drama, sometimes a disaster movie with a plucky journalist, sometimes a fantastical sci-fi with a hovering supership, and constantly an experiment in innovation and animatronics that doesn't always succeed, but is interesting nevertheless.

Wed, 13 Dec 2023 - 2h 13min - 3 - Godzilla Raids Again (1955)
The first attempt at a Godzillasequel was rushed into production, resulting in an action-oriented movie thatsort ofexplores themes of civilians in war, but doesn't go the full mile. Alongside a new director and composer, a new slim Godzilla, and our first new kaiju in Anguirus… we also get lesser repeats of the first movie and some disappointing special effects. Listen to us answer the questions: How SMOKING HOT is Tsukioka? Why are the monster fights in superspeed? Is Godzilla attracted to light or not? What the heck is Gigantis, the Fire Monster? And more!

Mon, 13 Nov 2023 - 1h 54min - 2 - Godzilla (1954)
Our kaiju journey begins, of course, with the very first—Ishirō Honda's influential classic, a harrowing horror film unlike any Godzilla movie that comes after. We dig into the historical context and the filmmakers' own experiences with war, the suit design and innovative effects that still hold up to this day, Akira Ifukube's legendary score, and the human characters who bring it all together.
