Is there a better New Year's resolution than becoming a kaiju fan? We don't think so! On this week's installment of YHS on Monster Island, Jake and Jay are joined by Godzilla newbie, Abigail Gardner (Yes Have Some Podcast, Toy Anxiety, The Boba Book Club), as she discusses her journey into this wacky and wonderful world of rubber-suited monsters. Abbey discusses the films and kaiju that she's fallen in love with - and the ones that she could live without. From weekly pick-ups and appreciating the artistic nature of sofubi to what's on her "to watch" list, the hosts and Abbey cover it all! She proves that, though it may seem daunting, anyone can (and should) dive into kaiju in 2022!

In addition to the wonderful chat with Abbey, Jake and Jay get the pleasure of talking to Michael Hamilton of Kaiju Ramen Magazine, Kaiju Weekly, and The Power Trip Podcast about their latest kickstart - Kaiju Ramen: Volume I. Michael is a wealth of knowledge and his enthusiasm for this project is contagious! Please, everyone, go out and back this project!

Thanks for listening and please leave a rating and review...it means a lot!
