Bonus Episode #14: I was in ‘ZillaFoot’! | Ft. Daniel DiManna and Elijah Thomas

Published July 13, 2023

It’s not often Nate has actors from kaiju films on the show, let alone two of his buddies! Yes, believe it or not, his friends Daniel DiManna (Godzilla Novelization Project) and Elijah Thomas (Kaiju Conversation) both “starred” and “co-directed” the independent schlock-fest ZillaFoot from SRS Cinema. In this episode, which is more of an interview than a review/discussion, Daniel and Elijah talk about how they got involved with this movie and what they did in it. They also try to explain its convoluted history and divulge some juicy insider info! It’s the definitive podcast episode on ZillaFoot! (Worst bragging rights ever…?)

This episode was edited by Kim Lacanilao (https://www.nuclearlizardmedia.com/) with Nathan Marchand.

You can buy ZillaFoot on the SRS Cinema Store (https://srscinemastore.com/products/zillafoot-bluray) and Amazon (DVD: https://tinyurl.com/36fmnrsy).

Episode 77: ‘Dinosaucers’ (Ft. Michael Hamilton and Daniel DiManna)

Published July 13, 2023

Hello, Kaiju Lovers! MIFV MAX members Michael “The Man of Many Nicknames” Hamilton and Daniel “Godzilla Novelization Project” DiManna sponsored this Patreon episode on the semi-obscure ‘80s cartoon Dinosaucers, a comedy-action series about anthropomorphic alien dinosaurs battling each other. Sadly, Nate doesn’t find it as cool as that description sounds, much to his guests’ chagrin. The nostalgic Michael and ever-positive Danny make valiant defenses of the show—even when it gets culturally insensitive and a bit cringey. But then it has flashes of brilliance like when the characters travel to Japan and get in a pseudo-Godzilla movie and play a workout video from Chuck No-Wrist. You read that right! Episodes covered: “Dinosaur Valley,” “Sleeping Booty,” “The Truth about Dragons,” “Age of Aquariums,” and “Karatesaurus Wrecks.”

Beforehand, Nate tries—and fails—to sneak past a Space Beastman to acquire the rare scotch for WHG3 and enlists H.E.A.T.’s super-spy, Monique Dupre, for help. Afterward, he and Jet Jaguar take the scotch to Nessie’s Brasserie, where they meet an overeager Bonnie and H.E.A.T.’s techie, Randy Hernandez, and acquire a micro-SD card with evidence against Winter—that requires a password to avoid deleting the data!

This episode was edited by Christopher Riner and Nathan Marchand.

The prologue and epilogue, “Hijinks,” was written by Nathan Marchand with Michael Hamilton.

Guest Cast

  • Dani Cruz as Monique Dupre
  • Olivia Reed as Bonnie Lass
  • Daniel DiManna as N.I.G.E.L./Jet Jaguar
  • Michael Hamilton as William H. George III
  • Introducing Nelson Abrego as Randy Hernandez (Twitter: @NelsonAbregoVA)

Additional music:

  • “Controlled Jazz” by Mustin, Scott Peeples
  • “Dinosaucers Theme” by Haim Saban and Shuki Levi
  • “Chant My Name!” by Masaaki Endo
  • “Bonnie Dundee” by Nesrality
  • “Bonnie Mary Hay” by Newrality
  • “Oh, Charlie Is My Darling” by Nesrality

Episode 73 – ‘Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers: The Movie’ | Ft. The Cel Cast

Published December 13, 2022

(This episode was largely recorded and written before the tragic news of Jason David Frank’s death).

Hello, Kaiju Lovers! In what you could call the perfect crossover between their podcasts, MIFV MAX members Drew and Jacob of The Cel Cast sponsor a discussion of Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers: The Movie. It has animated kaiju in it—they’re just bad CGI robots. But the real star of this film, like other pop culture blockbusters in 1995, was the villain Ivan Ooze (played by Paul Freeman), who steals every scene and eats all the scenery. If you’ve heard Nate discuss this on one of his other podcasts, The Power Trip, this will be an expansion on what he said there, particularly on the subject of the hero’s journey. Too bad for Nate and his co-hosts, their discussion is interrupted by a certain snarky bonehead.

The night before the broadcast, Nate journals about getting voicemails from Karone—an actual Power Ranger—and Raymund—who keeps claiming he was a Ranger. After the broadcast, Nate goes to a special “thank you for your service” meet-and-greet being held in honor of the recently retired Tommy Oliver. But an old foe of Tommy’s crashes the party.

This episode is dedicated in loving memory to Jason David Frank.

The prologue and epilogue, “Return of the Green Rangers,” was written by Nathan Marchand with Michael Hamilton. “Rito Calls” written by Nathan Marchand.

Guest Cast

  • Celeste Mora as Karone
  • Damon Noyes as Raymund Martin and Gary Steward
  • Joey Sourlis as Tommy Oliver
  • Shane Cochran as Ivan Ooze
  • Daniel DiManna as Ninjor

Additional music:

  • “Go Go Power Rangers” by The Power Rangers Orchestra
  • “Chant My Name!” by Masaaki Endo
  • “Ivan Ooze” by Graeme Revell
  • “Go Green Ranger Go (Instrumental Redux)” by Ron Wasserman
  • “Susume! Gorenger (Opening Theme) Cover 秘密戦隊ゴレンジャー”by It Takes 2 to Toku

As a warm-up to MIFV season 4—“The Monster Island World Tour”—Nathan and his friends Michael Hamilton and Daniel DiManna discuss Netflix’s new Norwegian kaiju movie, Troll. Is this a secret MonsterVerse film? Is it pulling from the same lore as 2010’s Trollhunter? What do Norwegian fairytales say about trolls? All these questions and more are discussed and answered by Nathan and two trolls he calls “friends”!

Episode 72: Record All Monsters vs. ‘Colossal’

Published November 17, 2022

Hello, kaiju lovers! Today on “Ameri-kaiju,” we get artsy with the indie film Colossal, starring Anne Hathaway. Robert and Courtney from the Record All Monsters podcast stop by to have a thoughtful discussion on this unique kaiju film where the monsters are psychic projections of the main characters. While it’s a comedy, it touches on some heavy subjects, like alcoholism and narcissism. All three hosts share personal stories connected to those subjects. While some commentators have said that the film is about domestic abuse, Nate disagrees. So instead, today’s Toku Topic is on the psychology of inner demons because every character in Colossal is wrestling with one.

Beforehand, Cameron Winter pays Nate a visit in Nate’s prestigious media master office. Winter asks Nate if he knows anything about Jessica helping to free the Ymir—and to maintain his cover, Nate reluctantly says she conspired to do so. Afterward, Nate and Jet Jaguar go to the Heat Seeker and meet H.E.A.T.’s techie, Randy, who sends the robot N.I.G.E.L. to spy on Winter’s operations on the Beta Site. There they make a surprise discovery that’s more than they bargained for, and now Jet must save them.

The prologue and epilogue, “Trespassing,” was written by Nathan Marchand.

Guest cast:

  • Jack Hudgens as Cameron Winter
  • Andres Perez as Randy Hernandez
  • Daniel DiManna as N.I.G.E.L.

Additional music:

  • “Pacific Rim” by Niall Stenson
  • “Chant My Name!” by Masaaki Endo
  • “Black Moonrise (Midnight Mix)” by BeanJammin
  • “The Shadow” by Mike Norvak

BONUS: ‘Outtakes and Tangents, Episode 67’

Published August 24, 2022

Hello, kaiju lovers! I’m hard at work catching up on my editing/writing of the next few MIFV episodes, but in the meantime, I thought I’d share something in the podcast feed that’d normally be on MIFV MAX on Patreon. Any and all bloopers are saved and shared with Patrons (starting at the $10/month level), but since I had to cut some great discussions on Faustian deals from episode 67 (Little Shop of Horrors, 1986), I thought I’d publish it publicly so non-Patrons could taste a bit of what they can get for their support. Enjoy hearing me banter and flub with Michael Hamilton, Daniel DiManna, and Damon Noyes!

Episode 68 is unfortunately delayed until next week, but I didn’t want to leave you without “new” content, Kaiju Lovers! Given that this weekend is G-Fest XXVII, the oldest and arguably biggest kaiju convention in North America, it was appropriate that I share the audio from the latest “Chill with Kaiju Kim” livestream.

Original YouTube description: “Kaiju Kim is joined by Omni Viewer, Thomas Nicol, Nathan Marchand, and Danny DiManna to discuss what’s going down at G-FEST XXVII (July 15-17 2022)!”

Episode 67: ‘Little Shop of Horrors’ (1986) | Ft. Damon Noyes

Published June 23, 2022

Hello, kaiju lovers! Thanks to Damon Noyes’s generous MIFV MAX pledge on Patreon, MIFV is covering its first musical: Little Shop of Horrors (1986)! Nate wanted to cover this as part of Amer-kaiju, but to his disappointment, it didn’t make the cut. That’s when Damon, who’s performed in not one but two stage productions of this, swooped in and got it on the roster. It has a puppet, after all. This story has a complicated history: from several short stories to a low-budget Roger Corman movie in 1960 to a 1982 off-off-Broadway musical to this film, Nate and Damon dive into all of it. You’ll hear discussion of Faustian bargains, debates over its two endings, some singing, and even a candid moment where Damon gets emotional about a song in the film.

Before the broadcast, Nate was checking his e-mail in the KIJU breakroom when Mr. Gold arrives and says Cameron Winter wants to promote him to “media master.” Nate is reluctant, but he wonders if he can use this to discover what the new boss is hiding. Also, Dr. Douif calls as the Island’s kaiju horticulturalist to offer his thoughts on Audrey II.

Check out the movies Damon was in! Maxie, directed by Jarrett Bryant, is on the streaming site Vimeo. One can get $1.00 off the price by using the code: LaneCounty. “Off the Road,” a 13-minute short from Hewlett Artistry, can be viewed on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/ZdJHBY2a4fg.

The prologue, “The Offer,” was written by Nathan Marchand.

Guest stars:

  • Michael Hamilton as Mr. Gold
  • Daniel DiManna as Dr. Dourif

Additional music:

  • “This Cowboy’s Hat” (instrumental) by Chris LeDoux
  • “Finale (Don’t Feed the Plants)” by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman
  • “Chant My Name!” by Masaaki Endo
