In this first episode of a Patreon-exclusive review series for the remaining 31 episodes of Godzilla: The Series not covered on the show, Nate analyzes episodes three and four of the superior Saturday morning cartoon sequel to the infamous 1998 movie. One episode lets him talk about a prolific screenwriter and novelist, Kurt Vonnegut, and artificial intelligence. The second invites comparisons to most Ultraman series and Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019). That’s just a taste of fascinating places Nate goes in his discussion!
