In today's episode we're talking about the most legendary clash of all time King Kong vs Godzilla! We pit the original 1962 Japanese cut against the 1963 US cut to see who comes out as king.

Because we apparently love the sound of our own voices so much, we started blabbing way longer than we normally do so, sadly, we didn't have time for Kaiju Corner! Apologies folks, we'll do our best to squeeze it in next time!
