The Kaiju Apostle Podcast
UPDATE: As of March 2021, TKAP is dead. If you are an Ultraman fan, we have started a new podcast: Saved by the Belial: An Atrocious Ultraman Podcast. We hope you'd make the jump over and listen!
The Kaiju Apostle Podcast is what happens when two seminarians dive into Toho's deep, rich history of monster films and discover what lies beneath the surface. Whether you’re a hardcore or casual fan, or somewhere in between, if you’ve ever thought there must be something more to Godzilla movies than people in rubber suits, then this show is for you.
