Explode When Defeated

Episode 24: Space Amoeba (1970)

This time on DISCUSS ALL MONSTERS, Nicky and Wyatt try really hard to fill an entire episode's worth of discussion on Space Amoeba. We talk about characters, events, and seafood in this one. As well as some monsters of varying levels of quality. We talk about the beginning, middle AND end! and wrap the episode up in a way that could potentially be satisfying for listeners. We also make Transformers references because we're two guys on a podcast. Join us next time with a special guest... for GODZILLA VS HEDORAH!

Episode 23: All Monsters Attack (1969)

We're covering that most misunderstood and stock footage-laden entry in the Godzilla canon, Ishiro Honda's ALL MONSTERS ATTACK. We go over all of the most interesting things about this after-school special of a movie that you might've missed, such as the cool meta stuff going on and the subtler commentary on class and urbanization. Also Minilla has a voice and that's weird. We promise that we make some good points in this one so don't kill us just yet Godzilla fans! Join us next time for...

Episode 22: Destroy All Monsters (1968)

This week, Nicky and Wyatt discuss the movie that serves as the partial namesake of this very show! It's that most royal of monster rumbles, Destroy All Monsters! This movie is a total collage of Toho's monster movies, pulling concepts, themes, monsters, and (predictably) actors from movies past. It feels like the culmination of an entire era, and thus it should be a stunning opus, right? ...right? Well, we'll discuss that and more this week! Join us next time for...

Episode 21: Latitude Zero (1969) feat. MinovskyArticle

We're coming right back at you with this week's special guest Casey (@MinovskyArticle on twitter), clad in golden garb and wielding powerful death gloves to talk to you all about our new favorite movie, Latitude Zero. This film sports some of the best worldbuilding and character-writing that we've covered thus far, which then unfurls into a whirlwind of unashamed silver-age chaos. This thing's a sight to behold and we want to tell you all about it! Next time we cover our namesake on the podcast... DESTROY ALL MONSTERS! Follow us on twitter!

Episode 20: Son of Godzilla (1967)

The day has finally arrived. A monster turns into a father. A baby is born. Two bozos with microphones discuss. That's right, we're finally discussing the long-awaited (at least on our end) Son of Godzilla, a movie that pushes Godzilla as a character past a point of no return which leads to one of the most tonally diverse and emotionally resonant entries in the series. Also we talk about Minilla and how much we love our little disgusting awful frog baby. Next Time... LATITUDE ZERO Follow us on twitter! Podcast: @EWD_Podcast Nicky: @Anti_Laser Wyatt: @WazpRanger
