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/.  JIMMY'S NOTES COMING SOON!

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

You can join Patreon and for £3 or $3 a month you can get ad free version of the show. https://www.patreon.com/everyscififilm If you are interested in the plot of the film you can read an overview on the wikipedia page here.   Correction: In the intro I say Japanese Air Base when I mean Japanese Moon Base. Welcome to the podcast! TIME FOR PANIC TO ENSUE!!! We are in 1968! It's finally here! Am I ready for the 2001: A Space Odyssey? No, I am not! But I'm getting there. Please bear with me.  In the meantime, I shall distract you with a chat about one of the most visually delightful of Kaiju Films (Although one of our guests' recommendations may have it beat in visual delights). You can see an array of the stills from Destroy All Monsters on my Instagram account. This is the swinging 60s Japan style! In 1968 ToHo studios decided to wrap up the Godzilla Franchise with a big bang! A Kaiju extravaganza featuring 11 monsters. Let me list them for you. Godzilla  Rodan Angurius Mothra (very tragically in larva form) Gorosaurus  Minilla (Godzilla's son who gives me the creeps. Sorry!) Kumonga Baragon Manda Varan King Ghidorah  Due to international success the franchise continued on. Hoorah! I have two gargantuan guests for you. (They actually are, as far as I am aware, human sized although I have no proof.)  Yuki Miyamoto is Professor of Religious Studies and Director of the Humanities Center at DePaul University. Her work focuses on the ethics around nuclear discourse. Blair Davis is a Professor of Media and Cinema Studies at DePaul University.

Next episode (if all goes well) we will be talking about the Je t'aime, je t'aime (1968) which is available on BFI player in the UK (which is accessible through Apple TV) but seems very elusive elsewhere. There is a version on YouTube but it is in French. The English title (I Love You, I Love You) did not seem to help. The BluRay is also available but for slightly silly prices outside of the UK from what I can see. I wish you luck in finding it!    

This week, Shaun has an important question for Remington; are kaiju deserving of love? Hopefully 3 episodes of Kaiju Girl Caramelise will be enough to figure it out! Meanwhile Remington leaves Shaun wondering what's in Godzilla's pants. If you'd like to give us feedback, ask a question, or correct a mistake, send an email to AnimeOutOfContext@gmail.com.

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.

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. Can they survive the battle, or will the Kaiju tear their home to pieces?SHING YIN KHOR: https://shingkhor.com/JANUARY: https://sawdustbear.itch.io/januaryHOME: https://deep-dark-games.itch.io/homeALL MY FANTASY CHILDREN: https://moonshotpods.com/all-my-fantasy-children/PARTY OF ONE DISCORD: https://discordapp.com/invite/SxpQKmKSUPPORT JEFF ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/jeffstormerTHEME SONG: Mega Ran feat.

Former LSU standout, NBA veteran, and professional basketball player Johnny O'Bryant III joins the Krewe to discuss his unique connections to Japan, from playing for the Ibaraki Robots in Japan's B.League to founding Noir Caesar, his own manga publishing company. We explore his experiences living and competing in Japan, how a lifelong passion for manga grew into a business, and what it takes to balance life as a professional athlete and entrepreneur. It's a conversation about basketball, Japanese culture, creativity, and chasing passions both on and off the court. ------ About the Krewe ------ The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.
