No Gods, No Monsters

We begin our exploration of the Alien and Predator films with the masterpiece that started it all. Join us as we bask in the horror of being biological beings, as we confuse sexual organs, are consumed by Lacan's lamella, and as we struggle with the inevitably oppressive pairing of futurist technology and present day capitalism. We also announce a new patreon tier.

We have bonus episodes, behind the scenes notes, and post-recording wrap ups for just $1 a month on Patreon.

It's Godzilla's final film of the Heisei Era and we cover all your burning questions about it. Such as, how do you pronounce Destoroyah? What gender is Destoroyah and where does it fit on the Oedipal triangle? Is Godzilla.... dialectic? And what happens when you put a bunch of frozen iguanas in your car?

It's a No Gods holiday miracle! We're returning to the world of Gremlins to cover one of the most batshit movies ever produced. We discuss the origins of this anti-sequel sequel along with its critiques of corporatism, urban development, Orientalism, genetic research, consumerism and hierarchy. Also, is the Brain Gremlin smart? Or is he just talking?

We're all taking our first walk through the critically and culturally acclaimed series Neon Genesis Evangelion. We discuss our collective history with anime, and do our best to dissect "Angel Attack." We discuss the beautiful look of the show, the UN, Babylonian myth, angels, Shinji being a big whiny baby, Freud, and so much more.

To catch up with the rest of our Evangelion watch through, sign up for the patreon. $1 a month gets you bonus episodes, original music and more.

We're getting back to nature, the old ways. Yeah, it's pretty uncomfortable and there's a fascist cult, but it sure does look pretty. We also talk grief, drugs, pagan deities and you get to hear how Charlie and Barto thought the election was going to go.

For Halloween we look back to the meanest monster to crawl out of the studio system, The Invisible Man. We touch on Bolsheviks, unchecked power, the CIA, the Manhattan Project, and the results of Barto's google search for "Invisible Man, gay?"

In Lovecraft stories anything is possible, except the nuclear family. We talk ecology, lawn hermits, the unconscious, and hiring personal wizards as we explore the many shades of the Color Out Of Space.

We're back and we're done complaining about Shinji. We spy a critique of bureaucracy, more evidence that the Eva is (at least metaphorically) Shinji's mom, and we look to scripture to take a stab at where the Evas and the Angels come from.

What happens when a Godzilla cell falls into a black hole, merges with an organic crystal, and then absorbs the energy of an exploding star? You guessed it: Purple Godzilla. We scour through the wreckage of this special effects powerhouse to find a struggle between overt force and coercive control, an exploration of the queerness hidden beneath the surface of male conflict, and an image of the Oedipal complex as a force detached from human culture.
