In the pilot episode of the Kaijusaurus Podcast, Steven and Ross discuss the first episode of the 1978 Toei tokusatsu series, "Supaidaman" (Japanese Spider-man).

Supaidaman Pilot

The Kaijusaurus Podcast begins proper with Steven and Ross embarking on their kaiju-sized quest to watch and review every film in the thirty-strong Godzilla canon, and they begin in the only way they can: 1954′s Godzilla.

Godzilla '54 Discussion

Steven and Ross dive into the first Godzilla sequel, 1955's Godzilla Raids Again, and wax lyrical about how the film compares to its monstrous predecessor, and if it can match up to it. 

Godzilla Raids Again Discussion

Steven and Ross resume their joint foray into the Godzilla canon, returning with thoughts and opinions on 1962's King Kong vs. Godzilla - still the highest-grossing film in Toho's canon - including some of the film's unfortunate and insensitive dated material, and the lackluster nature of Kong himself.

King Kong vs. Godzilla Discussion

Steven and Ross make their way through the fan-favourite fourth entry, Mothra vs. Godzilla, discussing everything from college students playing giant caterpillars to suit actors catching fire, and pitching alternate endings.

Mothra vs. Godzilla Discussion

Assassins! A monster summit! Political espionage! Tiny twin fairies! A three-headed space demon! Shooting stars! A four-way giant monster rumble! Ruffs! It can only be 1964's fan-favourite Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster, which Steven and Ross sink their teeth into in the latest episode of the Kaijusaurus Podcast.

Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster Discussion

Laura returns to the podcast as she and Steven discuss and review Tsuburaya Productions’ recently-concluded Ultraman X, the latest instalment of the Ultraman franchise. Our hosts discuss favourite episodes, characters, monsters, and moments, as well as what didn't work for them about the series, and what they’d like to see in the upcoming film continuation.

Ultraman X: The Series in Review

Steven goes it solo for the first time as the Kaijusaurus Podcast reviews and discusses the recently-released trailer for Toho’s much-anticipated return to the Japanese Godzilla series - Godzilla Resurgence.

Godzilla Resurgence: Trailer Review

The Kaijusaurus Podcast returns after a few months' hiatus with Steven and Ross' discussion of the 1984 series revival and reboot, The Return of Godzilla. The duo talk of everything from cold war tensions to how the film plays in the current global political climate - with time enough to also discuss their favourite ABBA tracks.

Kaijusaurus Podcast

The Return of Godzilla Discussion

In their first episode of 2017, Steven and Ross discuss the 1989 fan-favourite series entry Godzilla vs Biollante. But do their opinions of the film match up to the community’s high regard of it? And look out for that Saradian agent!

Godzilla vs. Biollante Discussion

Time travelers from the 23rd Century come back to warn the Kaijusaurus Podcast of a greatly convoluted scheme to erase it from time itself! Or at least, that's maybe how it feels - Steven and Ross wrap their heads around 1991's Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah in the latest episode of the Kaijusaurus Podcast.

Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah Discussion

Steven and Ross return to Infant Island in the Kaijusaurus Podcast’s discussion of 1992′s Godzilla vs. Mothra. However, this episode comes with a twist - could this be the first Godzilla film Ross doesn’t like? You’ll have to listen to find out!

Godzilla vs. Mothra Discussion

G-FORCE enlists Steven and Ross to watch and review 1993's Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II - the franchise's (early) 40th Anniversary production. But will the Kaijusaurus Podcast boys survive run ins with Rodan, Baby Godzilla, telepathic children, and Pteranodon robots? Oh, my!

Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II Discussion

It’s No Box Vox Pop time! In our second Q&A, your hosts Jade Rose and Hamish Steele take on another set of queer-ies from listeners!

But before that, we discuss the recent attempts by award ceremonies to finally acknowledge non-binary actors such as Asia Kate Dale.

We then cast ourselves as the sidekicks of our favourites heroes and become heroes ourselves by working out which Power Ranger we’d be. We also take on more serious topics such as our feelings of self expression and how our identities have affected our friendships. And we finally get to the bottom of why we find the word “problematic” so darn problematic.

Special thanks for our audio and theme music to Graham Waller www.grahamwaller.com

2.1 Infamy of the Zaross by John Dorney

An alien invasion of Earth isn’t quite what it appears to be...

2.2 Sword of the Chevalier by Guy Adams

1791 and the Doctor and Rose get to meet one of the most enigmatic, thrilling and important people in history: The Chevalier d’Eon. She used to be known as a spy, but then she used to be known as a lot of things. If there’s one thing the Doctor knows it’s that identity is what you make it. Choose a life for yourself and be proud. Mind you, if the Consortium of the Obsidian Asp get their way all lives may soon be over...

2.3 Cold Vengeance by Matt Fitton

The TARDIS arrives on Coldstar, a vast frozen food asteroid in deep space. But there is something sinister defrosting in the network of storage units... the Doctor’s old enemies the Ice Warriors!

1. Beneath the Viscoid by Nicholas Briggs

On the ocean planet Gardezza, deep beneath the Viscoid, a mysterious capsule is recovered from the Time War, and an equally mysterious stranger found within. The Doctor’s reputation precedes him, even here… but can he be trusted?

2. The Good Master by Janine H. Jones

The Time War rages around Arcking — a planet serving as a sanctuary for the sick and injured. But Arcking is protected by a mysterious, powerful force: a force the Master will stop at nothing to harness… even if time itself is against him.

3. The Sky Man by James Goss

When his new companion decides to save a planet, the Master indulges this most futile of requests. Materialising on a primitive, agrarian world, both the strangers quickly find their place in it… until fallout from the War invades their happy paradise.

4. The Heavenly Paradigm by Guy Adams

With his plans approaching fruition, the Master travels to Stamford Bridge in the 1970s: a location he believes might hold the key to his success. But what terrible secret lurks under the stairs of No. 24 Marigold Lane? And what sacrifices will the Master make in the name of ultimate victory?

Godzilla Unmade #3: Bride of Godzilla ?

Hear more at the Big Finish website: https://bgfn.sh/5p

The Cathedral of Contemplation is an enigma, existing outside time. It turns through history, opening its doors across the universe to offer solace to those in need.

Occasionally, the Doctor drops in – when he's avoiding his destiny, it’s an ideal place to get some perspective. Only this time he's already there from several lives earlier, so when dimension barriers break down, his past and present collide.

And when the Daleks invade and commandeer the Cathedral, two Doctors must unite to stop them – or face extermination twice over!
