Sorry for the delay in an episode this week. This should help clear things up. Also, it's hilarious the night we have an important announcement, we run into some substantial recording issues. AKA why we switched to Riverside.fm from Squadcast.fm months ago and haven't looked back.

A wild Bonus Episode appears! Chris and David choose Rob! Rob uses "Great discussion about mental health." Bonus Episode counters with "Neon Genesis Evangelion." It's super effective!

We had a blast talking with Rob. Now LISTEN to Rob.

CORRECTION: David brings up a book in the conversation called A Call to Christian Formation. He really meant to say the idea came from It's Not Your Turn by Heather Thompson Day.

With Kyle being such a WHOge Dr. Who fan, it only made sense to talk about the series and have him try to sell David on trying out the franchise again. Conclusion: it worked. Also on the table: Godzilla vs. Kong, MCU (surprise!), and what it’s like being the geriatric editor for Nerdist.

Nothing like having recording a podcast episode where by the time it releases, you (David) prove yourself wrong several times: The Lord of the Ring books ARE better than the movies and yes, I did rush out to see Black Widow. Also, we were right: Loki is great.

Topics discussed: confusing Gridman with Ultraman; Dragon Ball GT; Ultraman critiques; toku burnout; the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe; and pitching the Monsters vs. Men Patreon numerous times.

We enjoyed having Eric from Monsters vs. Men on so much we decided to keep the conversation going!

Topics discussed: Eric’s journey from film snob to toku fan; whether films and shows are as effective in encouraging change compared to literature; fandom obsessions, expectations, and how this can shape one’s identity; Eric’s journey through the MCU with his wife; and the concept of the “sympathetic antagonist.”

We did a bonus episode with Pri, because otherwise, the actual episode would have been two hours!

*This episode was recorded before the teaser trailer dropped!

We learned our lesson with our last podcast: instead of recording an introduction episode a year later, why not do it in the beginning? It probably helps we are more prepared this time around. That said, this episode goes over why we transitioned from Godzilla to Ultraman, the show structure, our history with the Ultraman franchise, and our partnership with Moviespree!
