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

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.

This week on Bad Dads Film Review, the dads head into deep space for Project Hail Mary — a Ryan Gosling-led Andy Weir adaptation about astrophage, reluctant heroism, alien engineering, musical communication and the most loveable rock-spider in modern sci-fi.What we coveredThe return to Podcast Mountain after a week off, with Sidey explaining why recent recording plans went slightly sideways.Sidey and Reegs seeing The Streets at Alexandra Palace, immediately considering Iceland, and generally having a far better time than Sidey later had in Malta.Malta being very hot, not especially relaxing, and a strong avoid unless you are on the picturesque ferry to Gozo.Family hotel movie nights, including a MonsterVerse run and the crushing parental disappointment of Raiders of the Lost Ark being switched off for being boring.Ryan Gosling news from Comic-Con, including Ghost Rider, Star Wars, and whether anyone can make Ghost Rider look good on screen.Gosling's range: Only God Forgives, Lars and the Real Girl, The Gray Man, blockbuster charm and oddball credibility.Andy Weir, The Martian, and why the dads respond to optimistic science-problem movies where clever people solve practical disasters.The central crisis: astrophage is eating the Sun's energy, reducing solar output and threatening Earth.The Hail Mary mission as humanity's last desperate throw, sent to Tau Ceti because that system appears mysteriously resistant to the astrophage problem.Ryland Grace waking from stasis with no memory, dead crewmates, a HAL-like computer and a beard that suggests deep-space personal care needs work.The flashbacks revealing Grace as a molecular biologist turned school teacher recruited by Eva Stratt to help understand astrophage.The moral ugliness of Grace not volunteering for the suicide mission, then being sedated and sent anyway after the intended crew are killed.The grim Earthside stakes: collapsing sunlight, food-chain panic, frightened children and governments handing Stratt extraordinary power.First contact with Rocky, the engineer from Erid whose own planet is facing the same astrophage disaster.Rocky's musical language, the translation process, and the dads' comparison with Close Encounters of the Third Kind.The two-ship friendship: different atmospheres, pressure barriers, xenonite tunnels and two scientists learning to trust each other through diagrams and experiments.Rocky's look: rock-like, spider-like, toy-like and somehow instantly endearing.The discovery of taumoeba, the organism that eats astrophage and offers a possible solution for both Earth and Erid.Rocky saving Grace at huge personal risk, then Grace choosing to use his remaining fuel to save Rocky when he realises Rocky's ship is in danger.The film's optimistic message: cooperation across species, cultures and worlds is the only thing that saves anyone.Grace ending up on Erid, teaching alien children about Earth, and the dads enjoying the full-circle return to teaching.The reported $200 million budget, worldwide box office heading toward $700 million, UK-built Hail Mary sets, and Gosling's likely “double bubble” as star and producer.Key moments / quotesSidey says “hopes were high for Project Hail Mary” because of the Gosling/Andy Weir pedigree.Dan explains the title through American football: the last desperate throw into the end zone.The dads note that Grace “didn't fucking volunteer”, which makes Earth's plan morally spicy even if the stakes are existential.Rocky's musical tones immediately bring Close Encounters to mind.The group enjoy the idea of a sci-fi film built around “scientist guy figuring shit out”.Cris appreciates that the film is warmer and more colourful than the bleaker spaceship sci-fi he usually struggles with.Sidey reads the Grace/Rocky relationship as a story about different worlds working together on the same problem.Cris highlights the happy ending, the little rock children and the satisfying “don't go back / actually he should go back” emotional turn.Sidey notes the film has done serious box office business against a huge production budget.The final verdict lands simply: “Strong? Strong. Strong. Yeah. Strong.”VerdictThe dads give Project Hail Mary a unanimous strong recommend. They respond to the Andy Weir problem-solving structure, Ryan Gosling's easy likeability, the film's optimistic tone, and especially Rocky — an alien sidekick/friend/co-scientist who turns the film from simple survival story into something warmer and more memorable.It is big-budget, accessible sci-fi with a hopeful streak: funny, emotional, smart enough to feel satisfying, and powered by the very Bad Dads-friendly idea that cooperation beats panic, even when the Sun is being eaten.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

In this episode of the Fan2Fan Podcast, Bernie and Pete are joined by Patrick and Myles from the Kaiju vs. History Podcast to discuss the 1968 kaiju epic Destroy All Monsters. Considered one of the most ambitious "Avengers Assemble" style entries in Kaiju cinema, the film brings together an incredible roster of Toho monsters including Godzilla, Rodan, Mothra, Anguirus, Gorosaurus, and King Ghidorah. Bernie, Pete, Patrick, and Myles explore the movie's production, monster action, and its enduring legacy as a fan-favorite crossover event. They also discuss the film's place within the Showa era, how Destroy All Monsters has influenced the Monsterverse, and more. For more info about the Fan2Fan Podcast, visit https://fan2fan.libsyn.com

From his 1933 debut as a tragic fairy-tale monster to his current reign over an ever-expanding Monsterverse, King Kong has spent more than ninety years proving that beauty isn't the only thing capable of killing the beast — time certainly hasn't.Mike talks with film historian and self-described Kongophile Ray Morton about the revised and updated edition of his book King Kong: The History of a Movie Icon (Bloomsbury Academic). First published in 2005 as the definitive account of the King Kong phenomenon, Morton has extensively revised and expanded his original tome to cover decades of new material — from Kong's animated incarnations and stage productions to the Kong variants, spoofs, and projects that never made it to the screen. The updated edition concludes with the most recent films placing the great ape within an ever-expanding "Monsterverse," and is packed with photographs and based on extensive new research and exclusive interviews. Morton and Mike dig into the creation of the Kong character by Merian C. Cooper, the making of the 1933 original, and what it is about this particular giant ape that has kept audiences captivated across every era of cinema.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

Send us Fan MailPink Godzilla taking power naps in the Coliseum should not work as well as it does, and yet here we are. We're breaking down Godzilla X Kong The New Empire as a MonsterVerse movie that finally stops pretending it's above the toybox and instead leans hard into kaiju camp, bold visuals, and monster character work you can read on a face and a stance. If you want a spoiler-heavy podcast review that treats giant monster chaos like serious fun, you're in the right place.We talk story setup and vibe first: Gia's strange dreams, the repeating pyramid symbols, and the Hollow Earth signals that kick the plot into gear, plus the kind of product placement shot that feels like a car commercial snuck into the edit. From there we get into what the movie does best, making Kong and Godzilla feel like actual characters. Kong's arc with the power glove, Suko's shaky loyalty, and Shimo's long captivity give the action emotional shape, while Godzilla's radiation-charging rampage and “if I fits I sits” nap energy is pure MonsterVerse comedy.Then we get honest about the weak spots: the lore dump and fast translation leaps, the thin worldbuilding for the Iwi civilization, and why the human plot sometimes exists mainly to move the monsters to the next set piece. We wrap with the big questions, our favorite fights from Hollow Earth to Rio, Mothra's return, and the very real aftermath nobody wants to think about when a Titan gets shattered across a city.If you enjoyed this kind of deep-dive MonsterVerse talk, subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review.

Send us Fan MailTwo giant icons enter the ring, and the internet instantly turns into a tribal debate: giant lizard or big monkey. We're Project Geekology, and we go deep on Godzilla vs. Kong (2021) with the exact mix this movie deserves: hype for the Titan fights, genuine appreciation for the best MonsterVerse worldbuilding, and zero fear of calling out the plot when it gets wobbly.We talk about why this film lands better for us than Godzilla: King of the Monsters, how the franchise keeps rotating its human cast like a baton pass, and why that choice creates a real continuity problem for Millie Bobby Brown's character. Then we get into the good stuff: Kong's unreal CGI and facial performance, the boat and Antarctica sequences that look shockingly tactile, and the debate over Gia, American Sign Language, and how believable it is that Kong understands as much as he does.From there, we follow the breadcrumbs into Apex, “bad vibrations,” and Godzilla's rampage logic, then zoom out to the biggest MonsterVerse keyword of them all: Hollow Earth. We break down what the movie explains, what it skips, and why that hidden realm becomes the storytelling engine for everything that comes next. And yes, we give Mechagodzilla his flowers, because a mechanical Titan powered by Ghidorah's leftovers is exactly the kind of sci-fi nonsense we can't resist.If you're watching along with the MonsterVerse, hit subscribe, share the episode with your Team Godzilla or Team Kong friends, and leave us a five-star review so we can keep going.

️ Aquesta setmana ens endinsem en dos universos molt diferents: l'MCU i el MonsterVerse. Comencem parlant de The Punisher: One Last Kill, el retorn de Frank Castle a l'univers Marvel. Analitzem com Jon Bernthal reconstrueix el personatge a través del trauma, les al·lucinacions i la recerca d'un nou propòsit més enllà de la venjança. També repassem les influències cinematogràfiques i la brutalitat de les escenes d'acció. A partir del minut 17 amb espòilers. A partir del minut 42 viatgem al MonsterVerse amb la segona temporada de Monarch: Legacy of Monsters . Comentem l'evolució de la sèrie, l'augment d'escala i espectacularitat, la introducció del misteriós Titan X, el retorn a Skull Island, la química entre Kurt i Wyatt Russell i els misteris de l'Axis Mundi. Una sèrie sobre monstres en què les relacions familiars són igual d'importants, o fins i tot més, que les lluites entre Godzilla i Kong. A partir d'1 h i 10 min, la comentem amb espòilers. Una conversa plena de Marvel, kaijus, trauma, família, monstres, teories i molta cultura pop. Amb l'Ignasi Arbat, l'Aram Bonmatí i en Víctor Pasanau, de Nostalgia Pop, com a estrella convidada.

Send us Fan MailGodzilla doesn't just fight monsters in Godzilla: King of the Monsters. He fights our attention spans, our nostalgia, and a human plot that sometimes feels like it was written by a committee of eco-terrorists and stressed-out scientists. We lean into all of it, because the MonsterVerse is at its best when it's loud, mythic, and just a little ridiculous.We start with Rich's MonsterVerse on-ramp and his homework watch: Godzilla (2014) and Kong: Skull Island. That contrast sparks a real debate about pacing, visibility, and vibe. Do you want a slow, shadowy build where the kaiju are treated like a natural disaster, or do you want bright daylight brawls and an instantly lovable Kong who shows up and earns your loyalty fast?Then we get to the main event: Monarch, Titans, and the chaos of Mothra, Rodan, and King Ghidorah (Monster Zero). We dig into the lore that makes this movie catnip for fans, including ancient worship, the idea of Godzilla as nature's balance, and the franchise callbacks baked into the iconic sounds and themes. We also call out what doesn't work, especially Emma Russell's plan and the way the human drama can undercut the stakes, even as the set pieces, like the Fenway Park destruction, absolutely deliver.If you're into kaiju movies, MonsterVerse worldbuilding, or you're gearing up for Godzilla vs Kong, hit play and come argue with us.

Byrd, Matt and Kevin discuss the recently concluded second season of Apple TV's Monsterverse series, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters.  This season follows Monarch as they track the new monster, Titan X, deal with interference from the tech corporation Apex, and reckon with personal conflicts along the way.  Godzilla and King Kong make their requisite appearances, and we also discover new things about key places such as Axis Mundi and Skull Island.  We talk about how we felt this season turned out, how it compares to the next season, and our hopes for a possible third season.  Relax and enjoy the conversation!

What happens when you combine giant Titans, Hollow Earth mysteries, secret organizations, family trauma, AND Kurt Russell being unbelievably cool? You get Monarch: Legacy of Monsters — and today Jim is joined by Roofmistress Leigh-a for a FULL SPOILER discussion of Seasons 1 and 2!After a brief spoiler-lite setup for newcomers, we dive deep into everything:

Hello, Kaiju Lovers! We meet now...at the end of all things. Or at least the end of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters season 2. Nate gushes over what might be the best episode of the series, discussing the Kong vs. Titan X fight, the show's trademark "drama logic," and the unfortunately spoiled surprise at the end. (Hint: It ties to one of MIFV's most popular episodes). Then Nate concludes with his theories about where season 3 could potentially go, if the series is renewed and gives his final thoughts on the season as a whole.

This week on The Jock and Nerd Podcast, we react to the first teaser for Resident Evil before diving into a full review of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2, breaking down how the latest chapter expands the MonsterVerse.

Hello, Kaiju Lovers! In part 2 of the originally Patreon-exclusive weekly coverage of season 2 of AppleTV+'s Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, the show's valleys start manifesting—but this stretch episodes also includes Godzilla. For one episode, Nate had to look up a Japanese children's song he'd never heard, for one thing. There is a character death, an obvious revelation, and a gimmicky “meeting” between Wyatt and Kurt Russell as Lee Shaw. Thankfully, it did get onto an upward trajectory. What'd you think of these episodes? Part 3 will drop Friday. Check out Nathan's spinoff podcasts, The Henshin Men and The Power Trip, and Henshin Power V3!

Hello, Kaiju Lovers! In this compilation of originally Patreon-exclusive weekly coverage, Nate (and Jimmy From NASA) dives into the first four episodes of season two of AppleTV+'s Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. Nate argues it starts off strong and starts hitting some valleys relatively soon. He ends up a little disappointed that Titan X isn't quite like H.P. Lovecraft's Dagon as much as he wanted. What did you think of these episodes? Part 2 will be posted Wednesday. Check out Nathan's spinoff podcasts, The Henshin Men and The Power Trip, and Henshin Power V3!

In today's Daily Fix:Ubisoft has finally lifted the curtain on one of the worst-kept secrets in modern gaming: the remake of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. Officially titled Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced, this is a single-player-focused game that does not include the Freedom Cry DLC or the multiplayer component of the original. But it does feature new crewmates, a refined combat system, and parkour movement more akin to recent AC games like Shadows. In other news, BioWare gave a brief update on Mass Effect 5, only to say that, yes, they're busy. Better than nothing, right? And finally, Toho is expanding their Godzilla universe with Godzilla World, an interconnected cinematic universe for their version of Godzilla (not the Legendary version, which is part of the MonsterVerse with King Kong).

Byrd and Kevin welcome back returning guest and author Ray Morton to the show to talk about the newly revised and expanded second edition of his monumental book King Kong: The History of a Movie Icon! Originally published in 2005, the book covered all things Kong up to just before the release of Peter Jackson's remake. More than 20 years later, the great ape is more popular than he's been in decades, thanks to the Monsterverse films and a wave of comics, cartoons, video games, stage plays, and more. Ray has spent years revisiting and updating the book—adding new material, expanding existing chapters, and bringing this definitive guide into the modern era. We dive into what's been added and changed, and what it was like to revisit such a massive project. Along the way, we discuss the recent explosion of Kong content, explore lingering myths about the 1933 film's infamous spider pit scene, attempt to untangle the confusing history of Kong's IP rights, and touch on some unexpected backlash from Ray's first appearance—plus much more. Relax and enjoy the conversation!

In this episode of Behind The Geeks, we sit down with Takehiro Hira to discuss his powerful performance as Hiroshi Randa in Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2. We explore the complexity of portraying a character caught between duty and family, the weight of legacy, and how Hiroshi serves as a vital bridge between Monarch's past and present. Takehiro also reflects on the emotional depth of the role and what it means to bring such a layered character to life within the MonsterVerse.  Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 is streaming now on Apple TV+ Watch Our Interview with Takehiro Hira on YouTube Check out Geekcentric onYouTube | Instagram | Twitter | TikTokJoin the Geekcentric Discord HEREFollow Eatcentric - Same geeks.

Five shows, one galaxy of trauma This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl dive into Maul: Shadow Lord Episodes 3 and 4, break down Invincible Season 4 Episode 7, review Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 Episode 7, check in on Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 Episode 5, and survive The Boys Season 5 Episode 3. It's a packed week of monsters, mayhem, revenge, and people making extremely bad choices with tremendous confidence. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Maul Shadow Lord: Monarch: Daredevil: The Boys: Invincible: Maul: Shadow Lord (Disney+) Maul: Shadow Lord, Episode 3 Title: Chapter 3: Whispers in the Unknown Air date: April 13, 2026 Director: Steward Lee Writer: Julia Cooperman Summary: Devon escapes captivity only to be pulled back into Maul's orbit, where he toys with her psychologically as much as physically. While Lawson tries to juggle the Maul crisis with his failing home life, Maul escalates his war with the Pykes by hitting one of their shipments and tightening his grip on Janix. The episode leans hard into dread, temptation, and Maul's creepy mentor energy. Maul: Shadow Lord, Episode 4 Title: Chapter 4: Pride and Vengeance Air date: April 13, 2026 Director: Nathaniel Villanueva Writer: Amanda Rose Muñoz Summary: Maul makes his move against Marg Krim and forces the Pyke Syndicate into line, while Devon reunites with Daki and tries to help Lawson mount a real resistance. Lawson's raid on Maul's hideout goes badly, Daki and Devon confront Maul directly, and the whole situation gets much worse when the Empire is finally called in. Basically: everybody makes one bad decision after another, and then an Imperial Star Destroyer shows up to make it everyone's problem. Rating Out of 10 I Really Thought the Padiwan Was Going to Turn On the Lizard Guy Brian: 5/10 Darryl: 8.1/10 Monarch Legacy of Monsters (Apple TV) Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, Season 2, Episode 7 Title: String Theory Air date: April 10, 2026 Director: Gandja Monteiro Writer: Joe Pokaski Summary: Shaw receives an impossible radio transmission that pushes the season deeper into its time-bending weirdness. Cate and Keiko uncover an ancient connection to Titan X, while Kentaro gets a dangerous new offer tied to Apex's larger ambitions. The episode mixes emotional sci-fi melancholy with MonsterVerse myth-building, which is a fancy way of saying it gets sad, strange, and ominous in exactly the way this show likes.  Rating out of 5 Way To Almost Erase Yourself Shaw Brian: 4.11/5 Darryl: 3.61/5 Daredevil: Born Again (Dsiney+) Daredevil: Born Again, Season 2, Episode 5 Title: The Grand Design Air date: April 14, 2026 Director: Angela Barnes Writer: Jesse Wigutow Summary: Matt's war against Fisk keeps tightening as the season hits its midpoint and starts showing more of the machinery behind Fisk's grip on New York. The title alone tells you this is an episode about schemes, structure, and people realizing they're standing inside someone else's plan. Midseason episodes like this are where the screws get turned, and this one sounds built to do exactly that.  Rating out of 5 Mercy Sir… Mercy Brian: 3.6/5 Darryl: 3.2/5 The Boys (Amazon Prime) The Boys, Season 5, Episode 3 Title: Every One of You Sons of Bitches Air date: April 15, 2026 Director: Karen Gaviola Writer: Ellie Monahan Summary: Ryan goes feral, Homelander spirals further into god-complex territory, and Soldier Boy's return throws gasoline on everything. The Supe-killing virus, V1, and Vought's ugly origins all start crashing into one another while betrayals, deaths, and deeply unhealthy father-son dynamics pile up. So, you know, a normal Wednesday for this disgusting little masterpiece. Rating Out of 5 Ryan is Surprisingly Hard to Kill Brian: 4.23/5 Darryl: 3.8/5 Invincible (Amazon Prime) Invincible, Season 4, Episode 7 Title: Don't Do Anything Rash Air date: April 15, 2026 Director: Stephanie Gonzaga Writer: Helen Leigh Summary: The episode dives into Viltrumite history, revealing how Thaedus assassinated Argall and how Thragg rose to power through the empire's brutal purge of the weak. In the present, Mark, Nolan, Oliver, Allen, Battle Beast, Space Racer, and the Coalition take the fight to Viltrum, only to walk into a vicious ambush. Oliver gets horribly wrecked, Thaedus pays dearly, and the episode turns into one long slab of galactic violence and despair. Cheerful stuff.

Did Monarch: Legacy of Monsters just become the BEST thing in the MonsterVerse?!

This week, Da7e and Neil get distracted from their search for Godzilla by a flurry of confusing time travel rules as Monarch: Legacy of Monsters enters its season-closing arc.In The Calm [07:20], they question the laws of space and time as they apply to this show's plot and wonder how the writer's room will dig itself out of an increasingly perilous corner. They also discuss the potential resolutions to the season's story and whether any of them would be satisfying without breaking the canon of the Monsterverse. Then in The Storm [57:30], your faithful hosts anticipate next week's episode, which promises a shorter runtime but, more importantly, the long-awaited presence of Godzilla.And finally, The Godzilla Project [01:06:16] RPG dives into the post-production process as Neil's Godzilla: Awakening gets an assembly cut, a conclusion, and a schedule for reshoots as studio interference looms. Next week, coverage of Monarch continues with season 2, episode 8, "Separate Ways." And The Godzilla Project RPG finishes post production with the hope that Godzilla: Awakening will come in on time and under budget. To interact with the show, send your comments and questions to stormofspoilers@gmail.com, and follow us on Twitter/X and Bluesky @Da7eandNeil.You can also support Da7e and Neil and get all kinds of bonus content (from the Game of Thrones era to the LOST rewatch to our Twin Peaks rewatch project to our current Adventure Pod and recently concluded Hannibal watch project and our upcoming Dark watch project that starts this Sunday, April 12th!) by subscribing to our Patreon here: patreon.com/Da7eandNeil

This week, Da7e and Neil continue their search for any trace of Godzilla in their Godzilla Show as Monarch: Legacy of Monsters continues to reveal that the real monsters are, in fact, Bad Dads™️.In The Calm [04:56], they explain the correct order for watching the Monsterverse movies and where Monarch (roughly) fits on the timeline. Then they break down this week's episode and attempt to do the math on the migration patterns of Titan X.The in The Storm [1:00:52], your faithful hosts look ahead to next week's episode and another promise that maybe Godzilla will join the party.

This week, Kevin and Andrew go full pop-culture pinball: Transformers potentially getting a darker creative swing, Invincible Season 3's best arcs (and why the villain work is so effective), and a brutal Paradise Season 2 episode that hits harder than expected. We also check out HBO Max's DTF St. Louis (episodes 1–2) — a mystery-thriller where nobody feels reliable — plus a quick update on Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2, a tease for an upcoming Ted Lasso deep dive, hype for Project Hail Mary, and a quick pulse-check on One Piece Season 2.

Spice Visions and Titan Decisions This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl react to the newly released Dune: Part Three teaser trailer and review Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2, Episode 3, “Secrets.” Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Dune 3 Trailer: 7:57 Monarch: 19:11 Dune: Part Three Trailer Reaction Warner Bros. dropped the first teaser for Dune: Part Three on March 17, 2026, with the film set to hit theaters and IMAX on December 18, 2026. Early coverage highlights a 17-year time jump, the return of Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya, and the debut of Robert Pattinson as Scytale. Director Denis Villeneuve has also described the third film as more tense, more muscular, and more thriller-driven than the previous two. Rating Out of 5 Is This From the Book or is it Fan Fic Brian: 2/5 Darryl: 3.87/5 Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 (Apple TV) Episode 3, “Secrets,” premiered on March 13, 2026 as part of the show's 10-episode second season, which runs weekly through May 1, 2026. Apple's official episode logline is simple and ominous: “A buried secret is exposed.” Season 2 continues the Monsterverse story with Monarch's fate hanging in the balance, buried truths resurfacing, and the looming threat of a titan event. Episode 3 Details Title: Secrets Release Date: March 13, 2026 Streaming On: Apple TV+ Summary: In Episode 3, the story shifts hard into fallout and buried personal history. As Shaw, Keiko, Hiroshi, and Kentaro go rogue to track down Titan X, the mission gets messier with Monarch under pressure and outside forces complicating the hunt. At the same time, Cate is dealing with guilt, and long-simmering family truths start pushing to the surface. Apple's official synopsis frames it as an episode where the group goes rogue to find Titan X while Cate struggles emotionally, and where “a buried secret is exposed.” Main Cast Mentioned for Season 2 Anna Sawai as Cate Kiersey Clemons as May Mari Yamamoto as Keiko Joe Tippett as Tim Kurt Russell as Lee Shaw (older) Wyatt Russell as Lee Shaw (younger) Ren Watabe as Kentaro Anders Holm as Bill Randa  Takerhiro Hira as Hiroshi Randa What We're Breaking Down Our reaction to the first Dune: Part Three teaser Whether the trailer looks like a worthy payoff to Villeneuve's trilogy The tone shift heading into the final chapter Robert Pattinson's first look and what it might mean Monarch Episode 3 review and whether the season is gaining momentum The show's ongoing Titan X mystery What worked, what didn't, and where the series may be headed next Join the Conversation What did you think of the Dune: Part Three trailer?

A War, A Bride, and Kaiju Vibes This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl review Netflix's sci-fi military action movie War Machine, break down Maggie Gyllenhaal's wild gothic swing The Bride!, and head back into the Monsterverse for Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2, Episodes 1 and 2. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 War Machine: 8:50 The Bride!: 30:50 Monarch: 55:22 War Machine (2026) Netflix original movie Directed by Patrick Hughes Stars Alan Ritchson, Dennis Quaid, Stephan James, Jai Courtney Premise: Army Ranger selection turns into a fight against a giant alien killing machine Did the premise rule or feel like rejected action-figure packaging copy? Is Alan Ritchson becoming the king of “large man solves impossible nonsense” cinema? Was this dumb-fun in the right way or just loud? Ratings out of 10 When ED 209 Gets on Gear and Rampages Brian: 6.15/10 Darryl: 7.2/10 The Bride! (2026) Theatrical release from Warner Bros. Directed and written by Maggie Gyllenhaal Stars Jessie Buckley, Christian Bale, Annette Bening, Peter Sarsgaard, Jake Gyllenhaal, Penélope Cruz Premise: In 1930s Chicago, Frank seeks a companion, and a murdered woman is brought back to life as the Bride Ambitious art-horror fairy tale or self-conscious prestige weirdness? How was Christian Bale's monster performance? Did the punk tone work? Did the movie deserve better than its opening weekend, or was the audience basically saying “absolutely not, you little goblin”? Rating out of 10 Mary Shelly’s Bonnie and Clyde Possession Acid Trip Brian: 6.2/10 Darryl:5.1/10 Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (AppleTV) Apple TV+ Monsterverse series Season 2 premiered February 27, 2026 Episode 1: Cause and Effect Summary Season 2 opens with Monarch thrown into chaos by Keiko's return after being presumed dead for decades. At the same time, Cate goes against orders to try to save Shaw, and that rescue effort helps unleash a dangerous new Titan. Broadly, the episode works as a reset button for the season: it reconnects the fractured cast, throws everyone back into crisis mode, and pushes the story deeper into Skull Island and the larger Titan threat. Episode 2: Resonance Summary The second episode splits its tension between two fronts. Lee and Keiko investigate a secretive village tied to a cult-like devotion to a mysterious sea creature, while Cate runs into a deadly stowaway situation on the Monarch side of the story. Reviews and synopses describe the episode as expanding the threat beyond Skull Island, with a rogue Titan moving toward busy shipping lanes, so it feels less like setup and more like the season starting to flex its monster-muscle a bit. Returning cast includes Kurt Russell, Wyatt Russell, Anna Sawai, Kiersey Clemons, Ren Watabe, Mari Yamamoto, Joe Tippett, Anders Holm, and Takehiro Hira Did the season come back strong? Are the human characters finally balancing better with the monster spectacle?

Season 31, Episode 14 – Twisting The KnifeHosted by: DONMEGAAnother week, another mountain of entertainment headlines, and DONMEGA is here to sort through it all on Am I On The Air?. This episode covers the biggest movie and TV news from February 25 through March 3, delivering Episode #221 on the PopCulturePros Network. For a show that's been around as long as this one has, you'd think Hollywood might eventually slow down… but clearly nobody told them.The movie side of things is led by the highly anticipated return of Ghostface in Scream 7. DONMEGA breaks down the latest chapter in the legendary horror franchise, looking at how the series continues to honor its legacy while trying to keep things fresh for a new generation of horror fans. Is the knife still sharp after all these years, or is Ghostface just working overtime at this point? He also takes a look at the Prime Video action release The Bluff, digging into the performances, the action, and whether this streaming debut is worth carving out some time for.TV is just as busy this week. HBO rolls out its new original series DTF St. Louis, and DONMEGA gives his first impressions on the show's tone, style, and the kind of audience it might attract. Meanwhile, the long-awaited return of Scrubs finally brings the beloved medical comedy back for a new chapter, raising the obvious question: can lightning strike twice in Sacred Heart? On top of that, the MonsterVerse keeps expanding as Monarch: Legacy of Monsters returns for Season 2, continuing to build out the giant-creature chaos on the small screen.And because Hollywood never sleeps, the episode also tackles a massive industry story — the reported Paramount buyout of Warner Bros. DONMEGA dives into what a potential merger of that size could mean for studios, streaming platforms, and the overall future of entertainment. It's the kind of headline that could reshape the business… or just give executives new logos to print on coffee mugs.Movies, TV premieres, industry drama, and the usual dose of veteran insight and sarcasm — Twisting The Knife keeps Am I On The Air? doing what it's done for years: cutting through the noise so you know what's actually worth paying attention to.

This week, Da7e and Neil move from Westeros to the Monsterverse as Apple TV's Monarch: Legacy of Monsters returns for its second season.In The Calm [06:24], they recap the story so far and piece together where the events of season one (and season two's premiere) fit on the larger timeline of Legendary's Titan-filled story world. They also discuss Kong Skull Island and how Kong and his neighborhood have evolved since the 2017 film.Then in The Storm [59:32], they look ahead to episode two and beyond, attempting to predict what will be this season's big technological MacGuffin. They also discuss a few wild theories about where this series may ultimately end.And finally, in a very special new segment called The Godzilla Project [01:16:20], Da7e leads Neil through Session Zero of a new "Kids on Bikes"-inspired roleplaying experience. Over the next 10 weeks, Neil will create his own Godzilla movie project and be at the mercy of Da7e's dungeon master expertise and numerous dice rolls to see if he can deliver a successful entry in the Monsterverse franchise.Next week, Monarch season two continues with episode two, "Resonance," on Friday. Which means there will be a new pod in your feeds on Saturday with more Calm, more Storm, and Session One of The Godzilla Project where Neil will make his initial movie pitch!To interact with the show, send your comments and questions to stormofspoilers@gmail.com, and follow us on Twitter/X and Bluesky @Da7eandNeil.You can also support Da7e and Neil and get all kinds of bonus content (from the Game of Thrones era to the LOST rewatch to our Twin Peaks rewatch project to our current Adventure Pod and Hannibal watch project) by subscribing to our Patreon here: patreon.com/Da7eandNeil
