”Godzilla” and the Monsters We Make
Monday Dec 04, 2023
Monday Dec 04, 2023
Godzilla is an international icon in monster movie cinema. Recognizable by millions and adored by multiple generations. His inception - to those unaware - was Japan's response to the first, and only time, nuclear weapons were used in modern warfare. The bombs that hit Hiroshima and Nagasaki devastated the country and its people. And simultaneously gave rise to all manner of "what if?" scenarios about what could happen next should the bombs ever be used again in combat.
Today's episode looks back at the horrors of war, the destructive nature of the bombings, and the movie monster that was birthed out of it.
SIDE NOTE: There is a bit of static towards the end of this episode. I trust it doesn't detract too much from the content so hang in there till the end!
