No Gods, No Monsters

Episode 28: Gamera vs Barugon (1966)

Gamera, plus rainbows that destroy tanks. What else do you need?

Episode 27: The War of the Gargantuas (1966)

Inspired by the titular Frankenbros, Charlie and Rabbit fight like Gaira and Sanda throughout the episode, calling truce for google breaks of course. Things get pretty deep as Rabbit brings up some theories about the film's political undertones/underclones, and Charlie keeps things classy with some dating advice.

Episode 26: Dune (2021)

More Dune! This is part two of our mini Dune series, this time talking about Denis Villeneuve's Dune: Part 1 and, again, the books. You should probably listen to our episode on David Lynch's Dune before starting this one, because this is a continuation of that conversation. Warning: Spoilers for the books and likely for events that will take place in Dune: Part 2.

Episode 25: Dune (1984)

It’s the first movie of season 2, baby! This is the first of our two-part Dune series. We focus on the movie but talk about the book(s), too. Warning: This has a few small spoilers for stuff that happens in later books.

Episode 24: Welcome to Season 2

We're back! We missed you. In this short intro to our second season, we catch up after so long apart and talk about some of the changes coming to the podcast.

Episode 23: Invasion of Astro-Monster (1965) ft. El Barto

It's the No Gods, No Monsters season one finale! El Barto joins Charlie and Rabbit as they stretch this monster sci-fi spectacle to its limits in search of political themes explicit, implicit, and otherwise.

Follow El Barto on twitter: @ElBartoArmy. Listen to him perform black metal as Armed-Jouissance: https://apocalypse-preparation.bandcamp.com/album/split

The anti-capitalist kaiju boys are taking a bit of a break but don't worry, they'll be back soon to keep talking about giant monsters and dunking on dumb cops.

Episode 22: Gamera, the Giant Monster (1965)

When the world is caught in the grips of a Cold War, can an anti-industrial, fire-breathing, jet-propelled giant turtle bring the two largest superpowers together? To answer that question, Charlie and Rabbit will have to talk about Judi Bari, MKUltra, and Ted K, for some reason.

Episode 21: Frankenstein vs Baragon (1965)

Feminist gothic horror meets Nazis meets the bombing of Hiroshima meets a leaping horn monster from underground. Normal movie, normal episode.

Episode 20: Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster (1964)

Lots of questions this week. Like: What's Ghidorah's deal? Have the Shobijin become class traitors? Is the world ending (and since it is, how come no one will believe us!!?!?)?

Episode 19: The Suicide Squad (2021)

In a movie about criminals facing off against a giant, city-smashing space starfish, who are the bad guys? The government. And not Weasel.
