Nate gets back to his new subseries, \u201cGodzilla Redux,\u201d with the first of the many sequels to <em>Godzilla <\/em>(1954), <em>Godzilla Raids Again<\/em>. Strangely, it was the first G-film his guest, Kaiju Weekly co-host Michael \u201cThe Kaiju Groupie\u201d Hamilton, ever saw. This somewhat forgotten 1955 cash-grab sequel, which was produced and released within six months, isn\u2019t much to write home about\u2014except it features the first appearance of fan-favorite kaiju Anguirus and the first ever kaiju fight in a Godzilla film. Nate and Michael discuss these as well as the hilarious dubbed version, \u201cGigantis, the Fire Monster,\u201d and the JSDF (Japanese Self-Defense Forces)\u2014all while dodging Jimmy\u2019s badgering of his \u201cformer\u201d nemesis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before the broadcast, Nate and Jimmy get an unexpected visit from a \u201cnot-quite-dead-yet\u201d man\u2014Gary! After months of hiding since his near-fatal encounter with an escaped Gyaos, he\u2019s decided to reveal himself to Nate and share his harrowing story of survival. After the broadcast, Raymund Martin arrives with legal papers for a class action lawsuit against the Board for Nate and Jimmy to sign and has a happy reunion with his long-thought-consumed paralegal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Listen to Nathan Marchand and Travis Alexander\u2019s spinoff podcast, <a href=\"https:\/\/redcircle.com\/shows\/henshin-men\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Henshin Men, on Redcircle.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This episode\u2019s prologue and epilogue, \u201cThe Exaggerated Reports of My Death,\u201d was written by Nathan Marchand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Guest stars:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Damon Noyes as Raymund Martin &amp; Gary<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additional music:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/ocremix.org\/remix\/OCR02052\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201cTrue Evening\u201d by WillRock<\/a><\/li><li>\u201cA weird thing\u201d by Chiro<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sound effects sourced from <a href=\"http:\/\/freesound.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Freesound.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019d like to give a shout-out to our MIFV MAX patrons Travis Alexander and Michael Hamilton (co-hosts of <a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/kaiju-weekly\/id1330448313\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kaiju Weekly<\/a>); Danny DiManna (author\/creator of the <a href=\"https:\/\/godzillanovelizationproject.wordpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Godzilla Novelization Project<\/a>); Eli Harris (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/kaijumediajunkie\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">elizilla13<\/a>); Chris Cooke (host of <a href=\"http:\/\/2099onecrossst.com\/category\/one-cross-radio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">One Cross Radio<\/a>); Bex from <a href=\"https:\/\/redeemedotaku.libsyn.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Redeemed Otaku<\/a>; Damon Noyes, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.podchaser.com\/podcasts\/the-cel-cast-1181606\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Cel Cast<\/a>, TofuFury, Elijah Thomas, and Eric Anderson!
