About this episode

The episode features a discussion about the film 'Godzilla vs. Gigan' with guest Walter Trush, focusing on its themes and characters.

It's a tag-team battle with Godzilla and his dog vs. Ghidorah and his knife alien chicken sidekick! Cartoonist Walter Trush joins us for this comic book-themed espionage romp, where a manga artist and his karate champion girlfriend join a team of goofballs who get wrapped up in an alien conspiracy to build an EVIL amusement park (with a Godzilla Tower)! We talk about the Sentai team of human characters, Haruo Nakajima's departure, lots of reused footage, cockroaches, and of course... THE RETURN OF ANGUIRUS! Check out Kokorodon on Webtoon!
