Monster Kid Radio #059 - War of the Worlds with Tracey Morris - Part One


It's the end of the year, and the Martians have arrived! But that's okay - so has Disney, Indiana's Tracey Morris! Tracey returns to Monster Kid Radio this week to talk about the classic scifi alien invasion film The War of the Worlds (dir. Byron Haskin). What revelation does Derek make about himself in this episode? What 8-track did Tracey listen to growing up? And how do the special effects in this adaptation of this HG Wells' classic hold up today?

Monster Kid Radio #058 - Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, with Scott Morris - Part Two


Santa Claus isn't done conquering the Martians, and we're not done conquering this movie. Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is on the way to becoming one of Derek's Christmas favorites, and you have returning guest Scott Morris to thank for that. Scott picked the film this week, and in Part Two of our discussion, he lists a few of his favorite scenes from the movie and shares with us just how deep his love of SCCtM really goes.

Monster Kid Radio #057 - Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, with Scott Morris - Part One


On Kimar, on Voldar, on Bomar, and Girmar! On Hargo, on Momar, on Rigna, on Dropo! We're deep in the holiday spirit here at Monster Kid Radio thanks to returning guest Scott Morris. He brought the movie Santa Claus Conquers the Martians (dir. Nicholas Webster) to the podcast this week, and he and Derek manage to get the film's theme song out of their heads long enough to talk about the film. We also have a few more holiday greetings from previous Monster Kid Radio guests.

Happy holidays, everyone!

Monster Kid Radio #056 - Christmas Greetings and Visiting Krampus


Last Friday the 13th, the Portland's 13th Door Haunted House threw open their doors to celebrate Christmas . . . with Krampus. Derek braved the haunted halls of the 13th Door that night, and will take you with him during the near ten-minute walk through. Before that, though, various guests of Monster Kid Radio past (and a few listeners) have called in their holiday greetings for everyone to hear!

Monster Kid Radio #053 - Cheesy B-Movies with Tom Biegler, Part Two


A monster that looks like it was made out of papier mâché, a were-jellyfish, and John Carradine - these are just a few of the topics brought up in Part Two of Derek's cheesy monster movie discussion with monster kid sculptor Tom Biegler. This time around, some of the movies Tom mentions are films Derek's never seen before, but next week for his birthday, Derek will sit down to watch at least one of them (we're looking at you, were-jellyfish). (Speaking of your host's birthday, since next week Derek is celebrating his 40th birthday, Monster Kid Radio's schedule will change a little bit. Instead of a show on Tuesday and Thursday, there will be only one show on Wednesday.) Also on today's episode, the winner of the Tom Biegler Island of Terror sculpt is announced!

Monster Kid Radio #052 - Cheesy B-Movies with Tom Biegler, Part One


Quick! Get some wine to go with this week's cheese! This week on Monster Kid Radio, Derek is joined by returning guest and sculptor Tom Biegler for a discussion of our favorite cheesy monster movies. We love 'em, but let's be honest. There's a solid layer of cheese on some of these flicks, which is a testament to the film's worth because we wouldn't love them any other way! During their discussion, John Agar is mentioned a few times (John Agar Rules!), and Derek tends to sidetrack a bit, but Tom keeps him on course. (And don't forget our 50-Review Challenge!)
