Full disclosure: The reason Nate had to crank out this semi-impromptu episode on Space Monster Wangmagwi is because he was looking at March 2023 and not 2024 when he initially made the schedule. By the time he realized his error, he’d already made arrangements to have Danny on to talk about it, and Nate, for better or worse, is a man of his word. On the bright side, it keeps us busy while we’re gallivanting around the world. Although, the show has basically been weekly in March and will continue to be so in April. There is no rest for the nerdy! Including myself, who continues to blog about this episode and others.
- Damn, Danny! You were right: Yongary was released August 13, 1967…
- …but you were about how much of the original Korean version has been found. It’s 48 minutes, not 43. Did you forget, Nate?
- What movie did Nate watch this season that had a “fish snuff film”? The only possibilities I see are Mighty Peking Man (which is doubtful) and Attack of the Crab Monsters, but he didn’t watch a commentary for the latter. So, I’m not sure.
- I was sadly unable to determine how many early Ultra series used ADR. We’ll attribute this one to “Danny’s brain.”
- I don’t know about human, animal, or alien life, but atmospheric pressure can affect the growth of plants. It has to do with germination and respiration.
- “You Bet Your Wife,” coming this fall to CBS!
- It was the AIP trailer for Godzilla vs the Smog Monster(aka Godzilla vs. Hedorah) that used the phrase, “Mastodon of destruction.”
- I met the Gamma aliens once. They’re the pervs.
- I couldn’t find any “murder mines,” but I did find a game on Steam called Murder Miners. So yes, I’m claiming the name.
- I served with Ray Rocket (not to be confused with Raymundo Rocket) for a while. He did have murder mines and kill-beams. I’ll tell you about our adventure sometime.
- Here’s a list of popular South Korean alcoholic beverages, including the quintessential drink, soju (소주). I’m ordering this to be delivered to Uber-Moguera!
- Squirrel is barred from the Kenny Conferences. He’s been accused of kaiju abuse, theft, and being a general nuisance. And yes, even Toshio thinks he’s crazy.
- The movie can be streamed on Tubi and rented from YouTube, Google Play, Amazon Prime, and Fandango.
- No more poop, please!
- We don’t talk about Squirrel’s last appearance at the Kenny Conference.

As I said, April will continue to be busy. We have the biggest episode of the year next time with Donny Winter and a “mystery guest” joining us for Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. Then Elijah Thomas returns to make a valiant defense of Reptilian (aka Yonggary 2001) as part of The Monster Island World Tour. Finally, we get a slightly less derided but now popular to love film for Godzilla Redux with All Monster Attack (aka Godzilla’s Revenge) with Neil Riebe and my former nemesis, John LeMay.
Until next time, remember…we shall overcome!
