Show Notes

This week we take time to talk turkey with this year's holiday special by chatting with author Jeremy Robinson about kaiju literature and his new book "Nemesis" which releases Nov. 21, 2023. This mostly spoiler free interview dives into Jeremy's history with Saturday afternoon monster movies, what drove him to make this Project Nemesis adjacent book, and what parts made this podcast's host spit take while reading it.

Come with us to give thanks this week and add a few books to your Kaiju wish list for the holiday, and don't forget to order Nemesis right now!
