I battled the Virasians alongside by best friend and Gamera. I\u2019ve seen and done things you can only imagine. But none of it prepared me for North Korea. I questioned the wisdom of the Board for sending us there to do <a href=\"https:\/\/monsterislandfilmvault.com\/index.php\/2024\/06\/27\/episode-93-pulgasari-vs-tomi-trembath\/(opens%20in%20a%20new%20tab)\">Episode 94 on <em>Pulgasari<\/em><\/a>, and now I\u2019m almost certain they must\u2019ve cut a deal with the \u201cDear Leader\u201d to make us \u201cdisappear.\u201d They knew well that Nate would open his Venus-sized mouth and cause an \u201cinternational incident.\u201d Sarcasm is his native language, and it\u2019s @#$%-ing illegal in that country! I smell a conspiracy of gay frogs proportions! But maybe I\u2019m just \u201csalty,\u201d as the kids say, because that bullheaded punk, Pulgasari, ate part of my robot and technically ate my fianc\u00e9e\u2014before he petrified, exploded, and reverted to a baby. It\u2019s been a weird week. Anyway, here are my notes on the episode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Kims suck at <em>Counterstrike<\/em>. All they do is try to use rockets. They\u2019ll intentionally avoid using any other weapons but those.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I have a memo from Tomi to hound Nate to read <em>Kaijumax<\/em>. I keep telling him it\u2019s fodder for the podcast, but does he listen to his producer? Negative, Ghost Rider!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Russian dolls of oppression are nasty things! I went on a mission toward the tail end of the Cold War to take some out\u2026oh, wait\u2026that\u2019s still classified. I can\u2019t talk about it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I\u2019ll talk to Elijah about acquiring the rights for a \u201cTickle Me Pulgasari.\u201d After his success with Titanic Creations\u2019 Yongary figure, that should be easy for him.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I used to eat farming implements until Tomi Trembath told me to \u201cstop it!\u201d But hey, I had an iron deficiency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/monsterislandfilmvault.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/hqdefault-1.jpg?resize=480%2C360\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-845\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/monsterislandfilmvault.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/hqdefault-1.jpg?w=480&amp;ssl=1 480w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/monsterislandfilmvault.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/hqdefault-1.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I wish I could dive into water when I\u2019m hot and bothered. But then I\u2019d hardly see Kaguya\u2014you know, the reason I\u2019m hot and bothered.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You wanted a &#8220;Pulgasari freakout face&#8221; gif? Here&#8217;s your Pulgasari freakout gif. (Although, Nate insists there&#8217;s a better shot for it).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"276\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/monsterislandfilmvault.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/8v4h3a.gif?resize=360%2C276&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2457\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>James Bond movies aren\u2019t real?! WHAT?! I\u2019m rethinking my entire life! Next you\u2019ll tell me, I\u2019m not real!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I worked for a different \u201cagitation department.\u201d All we did was pull pranks. We were \u201cPunk\u2019d\u201d before <em>Punk\u2019d<\/em>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I found an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nknews.org\/2022\/11\/ask-a-north-korean-what-are-weddings-like-in-the-dprk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">entire article detailing North Korean wedding customs<\/a>. It\u2019s both funny and depressing. For one thing, you can be arrested for going on a honeymoon (yikes!), but this line reads like something out of <em>The Babylon Bee<\/em>: \u201cWhen someone gets married and has a baby in North Korea, people often say that another gun or bomb has been born. Some parents have even named their babies \u2018gun\u2019 or \u2018bomb.\u2019 That is the power of brainwashing.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We here at MIFV are still busy, even after escaping North Korea. Depending on timing, our next episode will either be a Patreon pick from The Cel Cast for some kaiju action in <em>Star Wars<\/em>\u2026and I have mixed feelings about it. Nate is calling it, \u201cThe Zillo Beast Saga,\u201d and it will involve a discussion of two episodes of <em>The Clone Wars<\/em> and three episodes (sorta) of <em>The Bad Batch<\/em>. Then Nate and his friend Elijah Thomas from Kaiju Conversation have their annual Harryhausen crossover, \u201cMonster Conversation,\u201d with <em>The Golden Voyage of Sinbad<\/em>. Next month, we move to Thailand (which is already safer than North Korea) to discuss <em>The Lake<\/em> and recapture its wild monster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Until next time, remember\u2026we shall overcome!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Social media:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Follow me on Twitter:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NasaJimmy\/status\/1322791987213410305?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@NasaJimmy<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow (the now defeated) MIBOD on Twitter:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MonsterIslaBOD\/status\/1323267020641718272?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@MonsterIslaBOD<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow Raymund Martin (The Monster Island Legal Team) on Twitter:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MIFV_LegalTeam\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@MIFV_LegalTeam<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow Crystal Lady Jessica on Twitter:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CrystalLadyJes1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@CrystalLadyJes1<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow Dr. Dourif on Twitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DrDoriff\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@DrDorif<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">#JimmyFromNASALives&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; #WeShallOvercome&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; #MonsterIslandFilmVault<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ve survived the infamous War in Space.
