It's not Monster Kid Radio. It's Manster Kid Radio this week as artist and ceramist joins Derek to discuss the 1959 film The Manster (dir. George Breakston). There's just something about two-headed-monster movies that's flat out creepy cool (and apparently Sam Raimi thought so, too - listen to this episode to get that reference!). You'll be able to see Jim at the upcoming convention in Burbank, CA, and you won't be able to miss him. He's the only man there with two heads! Okay, not really, but he will be the only one there with the coolest tiki versions of our beloved Gill-Man for sale! As for a convention that just happened, author Karen Joan Kohoutek was just at NecronomiCon Providence and she calls in with a quick update about the con. Also this week, Kenny has another look at Famous Monsters of Filmland, and we even hear from a potential future guest of the podcast when he calls in with his own take on the put-the-head-of-a-dead-historical-figure-on-a-body-ala-The-Man-Without-A-Body idea!

Call it Los campeones justicieros. Call it The Champions of Justice. Whatever you call Federico Curiel's film, just make sure you call it a fun time, because that's what you'll hear in this week's episode of Monster Kid Radio. Author Frank Schildiner returns to the show to kick off 2018's Lucha de Mayo as he and Derek talk about this idea to bring together a group of remarkable people, to see if they could become something more, to see if they could work together when we needed them to to fight the battles we never could. In this case, we need an assembled force of luchadors to fight the evil Dr. Marius Zarkoff in this 1971 film obviously set in a shared cinematic universe. Along the way, Derek (gently) picks Frank's brain about how he researches the period-specific details for his books, they play the Classic Five, and for some reason, 1979's The Frisco Kid (dir. Robert Aldrich) comes up. Also, we have another installment of Michael Dodd's Vault of Monster Collectibles, and listener feedback with Brenda.
