Tokyo Lives: A Giant Monsters Podcast

Hope you've got 50 years to spare because it's time to look at one man's journey with Godzilla. Join us as we deep dive into the fan favorite Godzilla comic written and drawn by James Stockoe!

It is said that every 500 years a movie is sent to this realm in order to reward a Podcast that is pure of heart. Once the movie is 10 years old it shall be consumed by that Podcast in order for it to gain new strength!

The gang is back and saltier than ever! Join us as we dive deep into the seedy underbelly of Kaijusploitation in this knock off King Kong movie, A*P*E. Will the team come together to triumph over this adversity? SPOILERS: Nope!

Time to save a baby! This week we talk about the classic american monster film from 1961 'Gorgo' to finish off our duology of Eugine Lourie films. Join us as we dive down to the depths of the Ireland shores in search of treasure, fame, and horrible impressions that will probably get us hate mail.

Well guys, it finally happened, the gang got so excited that they didn't describe their favorite part of the movie. So it's up to me (Rob), to fill you in. The best sequence in the movie is the Lighthouse destruction, hands down. We see two men working in a lighthouse as the Beast attacks it crushing the tower in half by leaning on it. The whole thing is flashing between the two men frantically running down the spiral staircase and the Rhedosaurus bashing at the outside of the building. It's pretty amazing and shows all of the strengths of this movie rolled into a single moment.

DAM! This movie is so packed full of kaiju that we had to get the whole team back together! Join us as we venture deep into the moon's crust to unearth the terrible truth of Destroy All Monsters!

In a time lost to man, an ancient evil stalked the land. It's wicked breath could shatter bones while is feet would trample homes! No not Godzilla, I'm talking about Varan! I know, it's Unbelievable!

On this episode our intrepid heroes face off with the only thing more terrifying than a turtle: A TURTLE WITH ROCKETS STRAPPED TO ITS ANKLES. Gamera: Guardian of the Universe pits our favorite giant terrapin against his mortal enemy, a horrible bat-bird. Have fun!

Time to talk Colossal! Join hosts Kyle, Rob, and Cameron as they discuss the newest addition to the long history of Giant Monster films (kinda)!

Happy New Years every one! What better way to ring in 2017, than having a new episode of your favorite giant monster podcast to listen to? This is a bit of a fresh start for the Podcast with some new sultery voices appearing for your listening pleasure. As promised multiple times, this episode is discussing the 2006 Korean monster romp known as The Host!

We've waited years at this point for Toho's latest Godzilla romp and we have a LOT to talk about. Join hosts Coleman and Kyle as they fight like it's a versus episode about Shin Godzilla's place in the King of the Monsters pantheon and history.

Today we have an episode that we've been building up to since the very beginning. We finally talk in-depth about the original Godzilla film that spawned one of the longest running film series of al time. Not content to treat it like any other film, we decided to make this a VERSUS episode and pit the American and Japanese versions against each other in a fight to the death. 

This is an argument that fans have been engaged in since the beginning. Which Godzilla design reigns supreme? Which one looks like a grey speckled diaper with fangs? These are the important questions that Kyle and Coleman delve into on today's episode. Before that though, they delve into all the recent Shin Godzilla news and wonder when and if we'll see a new trailer (I know, there already is one, but we recorded this last week)
