Daniel is basically a print scientist. He's got a lab, he's constantly testing decoration methods on Stanley/Stella apparel, and he gets to make cool shit along the way. But more importantly, he's an advocate for printers, helping bridge the gap between the people making the garments and the decorators actually putting ink on them. Let's frickin get into this one already!Topics of discussion include: New drivers, Dylan's MASSIVE TV show opportunity, early printing days, testing print methods, big corporations getting into printing, getting folded by a press, joining Stanley/Stella, creating a garment from start to finish, 100% cotton heathers, imposter syndrome, helping decorators troubleshoot, the disconnect between manufacturers and decorators, why not all organic cotton is created equal, dischargeable garment dyes, the vibe shift between screen printing and print on demand, being present, and Kaiju.
Is Na Hong-jin's HOPE the Creature Feature We've Been Waiting For? (Spoiler-Free Review)Watch Skip Plus has seen Na Hong-jin's HOPE....and it is an INSANE, BREATHLESSLY-PACED CREATURE FEATURE! Joined by returning guest Shawn (launching his own horror/grindhouse podcast later this month - The Rot & Reels podcast with veteran podcaster Mike Cadaver), the three introduce you to maverick Korean director Na Hong-Jin and his incredible films before giving you their spoiler-free thoughts on this sci-fi/action/comedy, THREE years in the making and nearly TEN years since his last film (The Wailing). HOPE debuted in competition at Cannes and drops audiences into a remote harbor town under siege by something never-before-seen in a nearly three hour genre-blend film that references film noir, Kaiju epics, Independence Day, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and even Mad Max. BUT the internet is awash with divisive CGI talk and an ending that FLAMED many viewers. Is this the defining sci-fi, rambunctiously wild thriller of the year?

Kaiju Haiku fuses these two cultural forces into one stunning full-color explosion!Remember the awe of discovering giant monster movies as a child? Imagine recapturing that magic. Experience the wonder one more time through stunning haiku set to surreal abstract comic book art.Each poem is a small exploration of kaiju cinema. A burst of nostalgia. A pop of insight. Lurking below the surface, they are also an invitation to slow down, to look twice. Mirrors disguised as windows. What will you see looking back at you?Then, like a burst of the fireball from outer space the vivid kaleidoscopic comic art of Jason McBride explodes onto each page – transporting you to parts unknown.Kaiju Haiku is an art museum that fits into your pocket. A traveling companion. Reach for it anytime the ordinary becomes a little too ordinary. The giant monsters are waiting.

Jake and Jay share their Kaiju Go! sofubi hauls + toys arrive from WF2026S!
Eiji Tsuburaya emerged from the horrors of WWII believing that kaiju stories could help restore hope to traumatized children. His pioneering work laid the architecture for a six-decade tokusatsu movement in which monsters offer cultural mirrors and spiritual architecture. This session will cross space and time to explore the complexity and beauty of monsters as storytellers. Perhaps their tales can give us courage and hope to face some creatures raging in our own tumultuous era.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hello, Kaiju Lovers! Kaiju author Neil Riebe returns to discuss the one Ultraman film he likes: Ultraman Gaia: The Battle in Hyperspace. This entry in the Ultra Series is unique in that it's a TV series tie-in that's arguably a standalone feature. Not only that, it's a surprisingly deep and dark meta story set in the "real world," and the protagonists are actually kids who aren't "Kennys." What a shock! It's a monkey's paw tale that examines the fallibility of human nature to boot! Plus, the main kaiju, King of Mons, is one of the most epic creatures in the Ultra Series. Since the film references Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift, the Toku Topic is multiverse theory, a concept the movie introduces to the franchise. For full show notes, including a bibliography of sources, see this episode's blog on the MIFV website: https://monsterislandfilmvault.com/index.php/2026/08/17/episode-114-ultraman-gaia-the-battle-in-hyperspace-vs-neil-riebe-the-ultra-journey/.

Ode (@thatsod.e / @thatsod_e) and Mo AKA Kid Licorish (@licorishislegit) welcome comic book creator Gerald Goodwin Jr into the Snurdyverse for a bonus episode built around his series Kairu, Slayer of Kaiju. Gerald walks through the premise of a twelve year old granted a symbiotic alien suit that reacts to his emotional state, and traces the idea back to influences including Neon Genesis Evangelion, Blue Beetle, and the classic Stan Lee era of Spider-Man. The conversation moves into his lifelong Godzilla fandom, touching on the Monsterverse films, Godzilla Minus One, the original 1954 Gojira, and Godzilla vs Mothra, along with the atomic bomb metaphor built into the earliest kaiju films. Gerald also breaks down why the kaiju villains in his own comic represent real struggles like anxiety, self doubt, and guilt.Anime comes up as well, with Gerald crediting Toonami for shaping his early taste and naming My Hero Academia, Attack on Titan, and Dragon Ball among his favorites. Gerald shows rough storyboard art from the upcoming issue six of Kairu for the first time in any interview, revealing a new character they nickname Mr. Steel Yubbage. The episode closes with the recurring mental health check in, a Big Mad segment covering topics like the reception of the Supergirl film and Hollywood's pattern of misreading what made Barbie successful, and a Happy segment where Pop-Tarts and Ratatouille both make an appearance.Connect with the Snerdy CrewWatch, Listen, or Sponsor the show: https://beacons.ai/blackandsnerdy

Today we're talking with Chad Boykin, author of Kaiju Haiku: A Haiku Comics Zine which is brand new from Jobber House Press, available now wherever you look for books. About the book:Japan is the land of giant monsters and tiny poems. Kaiju Haiku fuses these two cultural forces into one stunning full-color explosion! Remember the awe of discovering giant monster movies as a child? Imagine recapturing that magic. Experience the wonder one more time through stunning haiku set to surreal abstract comic book art. Each poem is a small exploration of kaiju cinema. A burst of nostalgia. A pop of insight. Lurking below the surface, they are also an invitation to slow down, to look twice. Mirrors disguised as windows. What will you see looking back at you? Then, like a burst of the fireball from outer space, the vivid kaleidoscopic comic art of Jason McBride explodes onto each page - transporting you to parts unknown. Kaiju Haiku is an art museum that fits into your pocket. A traveling companion. Reach for it anytime the ordinary becomes a little too ordinary. The giant monsters are waiting.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/castle-of-horror-podcast--4268760/support.
Welcome to the long hot doldrums of summer—-that nowhere space between July and August, when we realize that the sweet relief of Fall weather, and an earlier setting sun isn't as close as we wish. It's a space where we humans just try to create a life tempo we can manage under the beating sun, and maybe find a little lost island in the seas of our mind, that is always lush and cool, and restores our soul.In this episode we revisit a favorite film of ours from childhood. The Godzilla universe has its own Wiki, it is a universe that has been elaborated and reimagined for several generations now. It has its own lexicon and resident experts. It has scads and scads of impressive dissertations and responses on Reddit. We won't pretend to know everything about Kaiju, we will leave that to the pros. What we can share is that in revisiting one of our favorite entries of the realm of great beasts, Mothra, and her significance in the Godzilla saga takes on a deeper meaning than could we could comprehend with our little 10 year old brains watching Creature Feature on a summer Saturday night. It is in the most humble, caring, and selfless way — a masterpiece. Mothra is the queen of monsters, and we love her.P.S. We love The Peanuts too. Listen to them. They are great.Episode links:‘Godzilla' was a metaphor for Hiroshima and Hollywood Source: NBC News https://share.google/bn1DknrcbL2Q6sD9kGodzilla and the Bravo shot Source: Asia-Pacific Journal: Japan Focus https://share.google/xGQ7DTKAZTM7pmdh6Imperial Monsters … https://www.popmatters.com/godzilla-mothra-king-ghidorah-html

This week the Bad Dads go big. Very big. City-smashing, helicopter-swatting, nuclear-lizard big.Sidey has been watching the modern Warner Bros / Legendary MonsterVerse with his daughter, and the results are a full kaiju download covering Godzilla, Kong: Skull Island, Godzilla: King of the Monsters, Godzilla vs. Kong, and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.What We CoverSidey's family MonsterVerse marathon and why his daughter was hookedThe difference between classic Japanese Godzilla, the 1990s Matthew Broderick version, and the modern Legendary / Warner Bros seriesKong: Skull Island and its excellent mix of Vietnam-era war movie, lost-world adventure and giant ape carnageSamuel L. Jackson, John Goodman, John C. Reilly, and why Kong looks “like a badass”Godzilla: King of the Monsters, including Mothra, Rodan, King Ghidorah, Monarch, Charles Dance, and Ken Watanabe's heroic nuclear sacrificeGodzilla vs. Kong and the eternal playground question: giant lizard or giant monkey?Mechagodzilla, Apex Cybernetics, and why the monsters teaming up is exactly the kind of nonsense we came forGodzilla x Kong: The New Empire, Scar King, little ape business and the expanding Hollow Earth mythologyWhy the human drama in these films often feels like an interruption between monster fightsGodzilla Minus One and the contrast between Godzilla as hero and Godzilla as terrifying destructive forceWhy huge CGI monsters smashing things remains deeply satisfying when done properlyChoice Quote / Pull Line“They're obviously completely stupid, but I really love big kaiju, big monster movies. They're so cool.”Episode AngleA loving, sweary, spoiler-friendly defence of the MonsterVerse as premium switch-your-brain-off blockbuster entertainment: not always smart, not always coherent, but frequently brilliant at giving audiences exactly what they paid for — enormous creatures battering each other while humans explain things near laptops.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

Shing is a multi-disciplinary artist whose work ranges from film and puppetry to comics and graphic novels and incredible keepsake games such as A Mending and their newest, January. January is a postcard writing game for two about distant but persistent friendships in an alternate universe filled with kaiju--AKA, the most "Me" pitch I've ever heard in my life.Appropriate to the topic of January, we sat down to play HOME, a mapmaking RPG of Kaiju vs. Mecha, in which pilots step into the shoes of colossal war machines to do battle with invading monsters.
