San Diego Comic Con has left a BIG impression with this podcaster. So large, in fact, that I decided another bonus episode was in order (how many more of these do I need to do before I stop labeling them as bonuses?). To help me recall all of the details about this mega-awesome event, I asked fellow podcaster, listener and kaiju fanatic Joshua from the Incoductic podcast to join me on this installment of the Kaijucast. Joshua was one of the unfortunate souls trapped in the Hall H line with me, so he definitely was on the lookout for “the big G” at the convention.

BUT THAT’S NOT ALL! After we visited the Godzilla Encounter, I spoke with some of the team members and got in touch with Barnaby Legg, the project lead who agreed to an interview. Since it fit nicely into the SDCC coverage, I decided to include it in this episode (thanks to some creative time travel). I really hope that more people are able to see the amazing job that his team did; it was phenomenal!

MUSIC:
1. Ending by Akira Ifukube from Godzilla vs. Destoroyah (1995)
