The idea has been floated before but I’d be so down for a Godzilla month for the pod 🫡

Hey Matt ever since you started talking about Demon Slayer I started the show and am almost caught up to the current run. This show fucking rules. I love how the demon slayers yell out their special attacks and I love shows with katanas. Thanks Matt!

I know the audience for this podcast is probably mostly US based, but is it possible to avoid shows that are just on Hulu for those of us that live elsewhere?

Comment about The Contestant: Do we think The Resident Evil Merchant would be able to withstand Nasubi's torture? Would he just register it as a quality of Life improvement that someone Is giving him packages in the mail, rather than having to search through dumpsters to get his uncooked rice and dog food ?

Hey Matt, if you're liking the animation of Demon Slayer you should check out some the other UFOtable productions. They're well known for adapting the works of Kinoko Nasu, the creator of the Fate/ Stay Night Franchise.

The talk about winning sweepstakes reminded me that I won a sweepstakes once. 9 years old I told my dad that he didnt need to buy me a bike for my birthday because I was going to win one at the Easter egg hunt. And then I did! They even put my picture on the front page of the local paper with the bike where Ive got the biggest most excited smile a kid could have and right next to me is my friend who did not win looking completely pissed glaring at the camera. In hindsight its extremely funny thats the picture they went with. I quickly learned after that, that you didnt just win things by declaring that you were going to win.

Nick mentioned doing all the Godzilla canon. I think I should mention, assuming you also do the anime, you’re looking at 38 movies and 13 episodes of Godzilla singular point. Almost enough for a full year of the podcast. Also so happy Nick loved Mishima a life in four chapters. An incredible film that I never expected to have mentioned on this podcast.

Love that Nick is checking out Haikyu!! This show has incredibly hyped moments, and for a sports anime, it is pretty grounded in reality, unlike some other sports anime where they try to work in magical powers. Also I like the show's use of eternal monologues throughout matches. I really wish they would use that narrative device more over here in the US for sports movies. Imagine how much better "Remember the Titans" would be if we could hear Coach Boone's thoughts yelling "King Kong ain't got shit on me!" throughout the film.

I thought this doc was going to be light hearted and fun. Instead I watched a man get kidnapped and then psychologically tortured for 15 months all in the name of entertainment. Tsuchiya is a goddamn monster. I'm glad Nasubi seems to be doing better despite all of this.

For this being a Heather-less episode I’m kinda surprised that Leno was only brought up once 😹

Mobile Suit Bagera

The reality show was "My big fat obnoxious fiancee" The actor they got did a great job acting like a tool but I remember he had some really nice moments where his actual character came through. The prize was only won if the woman's family let her marry the actor. Thank you for mentioning Fred Armisen! I couldn't place the voice.

Zack Tennenhouse

This doc made me so profoundly sad. I said "[Toshiba Tsuchiya] should be in prison" out loud at least once. The fact that it's pre-reality TV boom is at least a little reassuring, because at least we presumably have ethics boards for things like this now. Fuck that guy.

Michael Pemulis

This was an interesting, if frustrating, documentary that I knew nothing about previously. But I never could've watched the actual show, because this kind of thing ramps up my anxiety, and makes me too angry, about humanity.

J0hn

Its insane to me that he seems to have gotten paid very little to no money. Not only did they show him nakid on TV without telling him, but then they published his fucking diary. Also Tsuchiya "helps" him crowd fund his next trip to Everest. Motherfucker just cut him a cheque! Edit: 751 pieces. I have also started skipping filler.

David Mucci

The reality show depicted in this doc should really go down as one of the most unethical social psychology experiments of all time, along with Milgram’s electric shocks and Zimbardo’s Stanford Prison Experiment.

After watching this, I've come to realize how much I appreciate modern Japanese comedy in comparison. Documental on Amazon prime or the Gaki no Tsukai team's Batsu game have been some of the funniest bits of tv I've ever seen, would love to see your takes as American Comedians watching Japanese comedians in their element. This high school special was an all-timer too https://www.gakiarchives.com/category/5
