Monster Kid Radio #017 - Dr. Gangrene and Tarantula

Dr. Gangrene, aka Larry Underwood, is a big fan of a movie about a big spider - Tarantula (dir. Jack Arnold) - but, let's be honest. As wonderful as the giant tarantula is, John Agar steals the show. Larry and Derek talk about this Universal classic big bug movie, dip into the plot, talk about the representation of women's roles, and take a science lesson or two.
