episode 151: Star Wars: The Zillo Beast
Byrd, Matt and guest host Chris (The Other Sounds Podcast, Cosmic Monster) take a detour and visit when giant monsters attacked a galaxy far, far away. Our main topic is the two part "Zillo Beast" arc of the "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" animated series, which was a loving tribute to daikaiju cinema. In addition to discussing these episodes, we talk about the other giant monsters of the Star Wars universe and Godzilla's connections to the franchise. But first, Chris gives us his review of "Solo: A Star Wars Story" and we share our thoughts on the strange current status of the series. This episode was originally supposed to be recorded to coincide with the release of the new Star Wars film, "Solo" but the recording had to be delayed. But we did it anyway, so we hope you enjoy it!
