Show Notes

This week we have a special episode, taking a step away from the cinemas and into the world of Kaiju television. Join us as we dip our toes into the world of mystery and monsters in 1966's "Ultra Q".

A television show that kicked of waves of Kaiju and Tokusatsu masterpieces over the airwaves, and was the build up to one of the most popular Japanese sci-fi franchises of all time with "Ultraman" later that same year.
