Bill Tsutsui, King of the Monsters!

Ross and Ryan talk with Dr. William Tsutsui, historian, author, and leading expert on all things Godzilla. From the original film's anti-nuclear message to modern classics like "Godzilla Minus One", we cover everything from head to toes about the king of the monsters. Like literally, we talk about why Godzilla's toes are important to the tone of the films.FURTHER READING: Tsutsui, William. Godzilla on my Mind.Tsutsui and Ito, eds.
