On Wednesday afternoon, I received a phone call from Nic Brown, one of the co-hosts of the long-running B-Movie Cast, a podcast created and produced by Vince Rotolo. Vince was a friend, an inspiration, and a mentor to many of us, and I was not ready to hear what Nic had to say. Vince passed away suddenly, and if you look on Facebook, you'll see the many folks Vince and his podcast touched over the years. Next week's planned launch of Monster Kid Radio's Lucha de Mayo will be postponed next week. Instead, I'm dedicating Episode #266 to Vince. If you have anything you'd like to contribute to the show, please feel free to call our voicemail line at 503-479-5MKR (503-479-5657), or email you thoughts or recordings to monsterkidradio@gmail.com . . . We'll be back on track with Episode #267. Thank you. |

Sullivan, and expert on all things gigantic Tony Wendel to join him this week for a kaiju-sized roundtable about the original film, the monster(s), its place in kaijudom . . . and a few other (mostly related!) topics along the way!

You can't see them, but you'll hear Derek and his guest this week talk about the 1933 classic The Invisible Man (dir. James Whale). You don't recognize the guest's voice? It's longtime podcaster Freddy Morris from Night of the Living Podcast making his long-in-the-making first appearance on Monster Kid Radio. He plays a round of the Classic Five before he and Derek talk about The Invisible Man, its possible influence on one of the definitive werewolf films of the 1980s, and horror comedies. Also, Derek gives listeners an update on the goings on at Dorado Films and the Dorado Films Podcast.

Derek met artist and fellow monster kid Tadd Galusha at Rose City Comic Con 2015, and he's thrilled to have him join Monster Kid Radio this week to discuss the 1955 film The Phantom from 10,000 Leagues (dir. Dan Milner). Why does this movie appeal to them? How did the classic monsters inspire Tadd as an artist? And what happens when a werewolf is abducted by aliens? You'll hear all this, as well as Tadd's responses to a round of the Classic Five, in this episode of Monster Kid Radio. Also - Listener Feedback! And don't forget - it's still RONDO SEASON (for just a little longer)!
