Podcast
Video Steve - Media from the Margins of Memory
Hosted by Kyle Schlichter · EN
A podcast about friends watching science fiction and fantasy media from around the world, with your extremely bearded host Kyle, their chaotically positive wife Meg, and the strange and wonderful nerds that surround them. Twice a month, we'll borrow 20 or 30 minutes of your time to gab enthusiastically about a film or television series that we watched, gush about how much we love 70s fashion and optical effects, and discover strange feelings about monsters stuffed with pyrotechnics.

Transcribe →Me & Toku & Everyone We Know - Episode 8 - MegaBeast Investigator Juspion
Nov 15, 202000:26:12Tap to summarizeWe're back with a real episode today! Quincy and Kyle finally sit back down and talk about MegaBeast Investigator Juspion, a show that makes up for its remarkably cheap costuming and effects with a ton of charisma and disco. Also, it turns out to be huge in Brazil, which is awesome! Also, you might notice that we've skipped from episode 6 to 8 here, due to the "lost episode" about Daiei Film's Yokai trilogy. We might circle back to it later, we might not, but either way, that's how the numbering is gonna go.
Transcribe →Me & Toku & Everyone We Know - Episode X - Fair Fight Dot Com
Nov 8, 202000:02:32Tap to summarizeHi folks, no new episode this week due to a combination of family obligations and general anxiety and exhaustion. It's been a wild ride and it's probably just going to get wilder. In the mean time, please head over to https://fairfight.com to help contribute to Democratic and progressive candidates in the Georgia runoff elections. There aren't real fifty foot alien heroes in the world, so it's up to us to transform into our best selves, protect those around us, and stand tall against evil.

Sep 11, 202000:21:20Tap to summarizeDo you like teleportation revenge plots and watching a culture trying to navigate post-war anxieties, cultural reorganization, and foreign occupation? Of course you do. Watch extremely murderable rich guys get bayonetted! Thrill to weird military themed restaurants!
Transcribe →Me & Toku & Everyone We Know - Episode 2 - Dokincho! Nemulin
Aug 28, 202000:27:55Tap to summarizeContent Warning: The first episode of Dokincho! Nemulin includes a protracted sequence of a parent physically abusing a child played as a slapstick gag.

Nemulin, a Toei "Fushigi Comedy" series created by Shotaro Ishinomori. Topics include 8 million year long naps, sentient ice cream, and elementary school badasses.
