Episode 12: Godzilla and turkey leftovers

Tue, 27 Nov 2007 03:49:00 GMT

When you've eaten your Thanksgiving meal and your laying on the couch slipping in and out of your turkey coma. What should you do?

Watch a Godzilla film!

For years it was a tradition in the New York City area. But if you had cable in the late 70's, like Garo and I did, WOR channel 9 used to show Godzilla films all day the Friday after Thanksgiving. We reminisce about those memories and other related monster stuff.
Enjoy!
