The Kaiju Krypt Presents ‘King Kong, Chapter 9’ by Delos W. Lovelace (Read by Raymund Martin)

Happy Halloween, Monster Children! Your host Vinnie Kami (and his butler, Kappa Joe) return for another frightful tale of monster mayhem. They try something a bit different this time with an excerpt from a novel—or rather, a novelization. Did you know the world was introduced to the Eighth Wonder, King Kong, in a book three months before the classic film released? Mr. Kami has the Legal Action Team’s founder, Raymund Martin, who claims to have received a first edition copy of the book as a gift from a lovelorn secretary (and to have tried to save the book from falling into public domain in the 1960s) read the harrowing chapter where beauty comes face-to-face with the beast. All the while, Kappa Joe demands a raise. Grab your trick-or-treat candy and cozy up to the radio, Kaiju Lovers, for a scary good time!

Episode 99 Epilogue: “Rex Dart, Eskimo Spy”

Seatopia’s most dastardly agent, The Togavengleist, is out to destroy the surface world with one strategically-placed bomb in the Hollow Earth network in Oslo. But one man stands in his way—Rex Dart, Codename: Eskimo Spy! Can he stop this religious zealot, or will he need help from his friend, “J.J.”? (I think you know the answer to this).

Episode 98 Epilogue: “For Whom the Bell Trolls”

Jimmy puts his foot down and refuses to let Nate join him on Uber-Moguera to recapture Bill the Jotnar. Disappointed, Nate wanders around a local Norwegian church, venting months and months’ worth of pent up frustrations. But even when Jimmy manages to subdue Bill in the distance, Nate can’t help but make things a little harder for his intrepid producer.

Bonus Episode #18: ‘The Barbados Project’ | Monster Island World Tour

Hello, Kaiju Lovers! Yes, Nate misremembered when the bonus episode on The Barbados Project was supposed to happen. But the good news is you got it sooner! Anyway, this low-budget found footage kaiju horror film is great warm-up to the next mainline episode on Trollhunter. It can be viewed (again) on Tubi, but it originally played the film festival circuit and on the obscure streaming service POV Horror. It’s a rare film produced in the island nation of Barbados, let alone a kaiju film. But there are reasons it’s flown under the kaiju fandom’s radar and the Island houses none of the creatures in it. Why? Listen to find out!

Episode 97 Epilogue: “The Third Wheel”

With the podcast’s longest episode ever finally over, Nate catches up on news about the goings-on back on Monster Island by checking his e-mail. He has messages from the Legal Action Team and Ricky–and, unfortunately, Jessica. Then Jimmy calls Nate to meet him on Uber-Moguera’s shoulder, and things don’t go how Nate expects.

MIFV Interview Series – Dr. Jeffrey Angles

Nathan interviews Dr. Jeffrey Angles, who translated the original novelizations of Godzilla (1954) and Godzilla Raids Again by Shigeru Kayama and got them published outside of Japan. These gave G-fans new insights into the production of these films and Japanese genre fiction. He’s currently working to get The Luminous Fairies and Mothra translated and published. This was a book commissioned by Toho that became the film Mothra in 1961. Dr. Angles even reads an excerpt from his translation (an MIFV exclusive!).

Episode 94 Epilogue: “The Hunting of the Snarky Nate” (Part 2)

No sooner is the broadcast finished does what seems like the entire North Korean military bombard Uber-Moguera in retaliation for Nate’s sarcasm. When that fails, they lure a very hungry Pulgasari to the airfield, and seeing the mecha as a huge piece of exotic metal food, he attacks. Unable to fight him off, Nate suggests one last desperate measure—that requires the metal minotaur to eat Kaguya!
