Birthed from the demise of the Kaiju Apostle Podcast, “Saved by the Belial” reunites co-hosts Chris and David to discuss the universe’s greatest superhero: Ultraman! With only three minutes to discuss each episode, will they be able to say what they need before the color timer runs out? Will Chris grow sick of Ultraman? And why is Ginga no Uta an absolute bop? Stay tuned to find out! Episodes are released biweekly. Official podcast partner of the Tokusatsu Network: http://www.tokusatsunetwork.com.

BONUS: “Terrence Malick’s The Tree of Might” feat. Eric of Monsters vs. Men
We enjoyed having Eric from Monsters vs. Men on so much we decided to keep the conversation going!
Topics discussed: Eric’s journey from film snob to toku fan; whether films and shows are as effective in encouraging change compared to literature; fandom obsessions, expectations, and how this can shape one’s identity; Eric’s journey through the MCU with his wife; and the concept of the “sympathetic antagonist.”
