On this installment of Podcast of the Planet of the Apes, we're talking about the third entry and follow up to our pick for "Most Nihilistic Tentpole Movie Ever Made". That's right, we're escaping from that planet baby!! and we're checking in on our dearest Cornelius and Zira as they go through some of their brightest and darkest moments put to film. This one's an emotional roller coaster and we had plenty to say, so take a seat and hang out with us as we dive right in.
As always,...

This time on Shit Shooters, we open with a listener question before launching into a nearly 2 hour chat spanning topics like HBO's newest cartoon comedy Jellystone, Netflix's Centaurworld, Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula, Fuga: Melodies of Steel, Bloodborne, Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey and even a little bit on how the original Strange Journey compares to its remake.
We had fun with this one, and we hope you do too! Feel free to send any questions in the commen...

Toby Jones, creative on shows like OK KO and Regular Show, as well as the creator of AJ's Infinite Summer joins us to talk about Godzilla's battle with the smog monster of our own making, Hedorah! Folks, this movie knocked us on our socks so get ready for some in-depth conversation on the movie's themes and wild visual choices, as well as some breathless praise and compariso...

This podcast might've peaked early! This week, we come to you with one of the most buck fucking wild movies either of us have laid witness to. A movie that all at once proves why Planet of the Apes didn't need a sequel, further condemns the society that served as its context in the most nihilistic way possible AND holds its own as a weird culty movie (that actually made tons of money when it first came out.) The Empire Strikes Who? Fuck Georgie Lucas, this is Beneath the Planet of the fucking...

This week on an all new Shit Shooters, Wyatt details his relaxing birthday week and talks some creative process stuff with Nicky before they go off into the deep end on some Fast and Furious hot takes. There's also some discussion on Monster Hunter Stories 2, The Owl House, and the recent Lost Judgment/Johnnys Talent Agency kerfuffle. Also Nicky goes in-depth with their current roster of Shonen Jump picks, as well as the latest Tatsuki Fujimoto one-shot "Look Back"

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. <...

Hey everyone, due to Wyatt taking a vacation for his birthday and general business on both of our ends the release for Discuss All Monsters this week slipped out of our hands entirely. So let's just look at this as a break week and we'll be back with a new Discuss All Monsters on Space Amoeba next week and a new Shit Shooters and Podcast of the Planet of the Apes the week after that.
Sorry for the delay, hope you all understand! See you next week.

Another fortnight, another shit shot. This week we talk about the Chainsaw Man anime preview, the end of Wyatt's journey with Bravely Default II and how extremely hard Metroid: Samus Returns is. We also talk about how good the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga is and part 1 of Nicky's leisurely-but-still-high-octane watch of the Fast and the Furious movies.

We've crash-landed on a foreign planet with nothing to do but talk about one of the most enduring sci-fi series in film history, Planet of the Apes! Much like our flagship series Discuss All Monsters, we talk about our personal history with the movies as well as go over some brief (but very interesting!) history before we get into a larger discussion about the movie and all of the stuff that was of interest to us! Also we make a lot of primate jokes. This movie was a blast to talk about and p...

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!

We're back with another unexpectedly long one! We're talking all about E3: all the highlights, the lowlights, and the really lowlights. So of course we'll be revealing our most anticipated games, as well as giving some of our takes on topics such as Pixar's Luca, Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne, Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, and a late to the party (on Nicky's part) discussion of Infinity Train.

In our long-awaited final episode of Let's Go Rider-Cast, we discuss the ups and downs and general confusion of this final batch of episodes, joke about evil pets and cactus people, examine a long-standing writing inconsistency of the show, discuss The Great Doctor Dee a character we all know by this point, and attempt to reckon with a non-ending so confounding that we're still kinda chewing on it as I write this post. The original Kamen Rider has been a journey to say the least and it all en...

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!

This week we bring to you one of our biggest episodes to date, spanning a multitude of topics. We talk some shop about video production, Wyatt talks through some VOTOMS and Gungrave stuff, I talk about my experience with Dark Souls II and we have a nice chat about Double Fine and Psychonauts, what with the sequel being expected to show at E3. There's also a little break in the middle with some Scarlet Nexus demo impressions with my brother Issac making a proper audio issue-free debut on the s...

In the penultimate episode of Let's Go!! Rider-Cast, we discuss just how long of a journey 88 episodes is, the increasingly cartoonish antics of the villainous Gel-Shocker, as well as gush for literally like 10 minutes on Episode 84, an episode we have prematurely crowned The Best Episode of the Series. Hang out with us this second-to-last time to discuss and celebrate, and join with us in anticipation of the final episode of this miniseries coming soon...

Your ever-reliable Shit Shooters are back to talk Capcom's newest horror opus, Resident Evil Village with a special guest in the form of Nicky's brother Issac. They talk over some personal history with the series before diving right in, and just like with the Chainsaw Man special before it that include spoilers so definitely do NOT listen to this without having played the game first. The game is a total treat so trust us when we say you don't want this given away for you!

This week our long journey with the original Kamen Rider series begins to come to an end, as we see the twilight days of Shocker and the dawn of the even more twisted Gel-Shocker. We also have some more rider kid hijinks, The Worst Monster Laugh Ever, and Ambassador Hell's incredible sendoff to discuss. Join us as we go over our thoughts and watch out for Crabbat!
Two more episodes left! Next time, episodes 81-88!
Thanks so much for your continued patronage.

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.

Like the new dry comedy meets crime drama stylings of Oddtaxi, Wyatt's flirtations with old school universal monster movies, Nicky's journey with Nier Replicant and the ongoing video game remake discussion, as well as a discussion on the fucking load of bullshit that Disney did to Amphibia for that show's anticipated season finale.

In celebration of the new 50th anniversary projects, we're checking out some older Toei projects as a small detour from our regular show. We talk all about Kamen Riders ZO and J in this episode, how they work as a pair as well as how they embody the spirit of Kamen Riders past and present. These are important entries in the series not to be slept on! Please take the time to check them out and then hang out with us and our laid back discussion of these two classics.

This week, on our longest Rider-Cast to date, we're talking about 8 more episodes of Kamen Rider including topics such as revival serums, weird old men, motorcycle races, and the progression of our dear protagonist Takeshi Hongo. We ALSO take some time to discuss the outrageous news that came about from the Kamen Rider 50th Anniversary.
There's a lot we cover here, and we hope you enjoy! See you around next time for maybe something a little different..

This week, instead of April Foolin' like last year, we've decided to take the time to tackle a subject near and dear to our hearts: Hideaki Anno and discuss the Return of Ultraman fan-film he produced in his years at university. We feel that with the impending 2021 release of Shin Ultraman, his long-awaited "official" entry into the Ultra Series, this would be as good a time as any to delve into the man's work and sort of set the stage ...

In this episode, we talk about a certain power that's been awakening in the both of us, as well as some opinions on Resident Evil 2 and 3 (the remakes), Asura's Wrath, Chowder, Camp Lazlo, moving couches, and Demon's Souls. It's a brief but fun conversation and I hope you guys enjoy. Stay tuned for later this week when our annual April Fool's episode of Discuss All Monsters is set to drop!
