Episode description

On this Mother's Day special, Byrd and Matt celebrate Mothra's Day by revisiting Toho's Rebirth of Mothra trilogy from the 1990s.  While Godzilla was in the hands of Tristar, Toho wasn't done making kaiju films and went to their second biggest kaiju money maker to keep the train rolling.  Mothra (1996), Mothra 2 (1997) and Mothra 3 (1998) came in at the tale end of the Heisei kaiju film cycle and were tailored for a younger audience than the Godzilla films.  These movies have gone on to be fairly maligned among fans, but are they really that bad?  Listen and find out!
