Episode 13: Supersized Kaiju special

The easternKicks.com Podcast - A podcast by easternKicks.com

Categories:

Ant Gates and  Phillip O'Connor join us for an appropriately monster-sized discussion to celebrate the Arrow Video release of Gamera: The Complete Collection. We take in the history of Kaiju, while considering the important questions. Like what does Mothra drink? And exactly what is the deal with Godzilla's son? Stephen Palmer tells us more about the original hero in a half shell, and Helen McCarthy, author of many of our favourite books on anime, tells us How she got into easternFlicks. This episode's timecodes00:00:31 - Episode introduction 00:02:35 - The origins of Kaiju00:22:27 - Stephen on Gamera00:29:47 - Godzilla's enduring popularity00:42:58 - Just what is it with Godzilla's son?00:47:35 - So who's number 2?00:56:30 - Non-Japanese Kaiju01:04:41 - Helen McCarthy: How I got into easternFlicks01:06:06 - What next for Kaiju films?01:31:55 - What would they drink?01:36:15 - Outro
