028 – WTH: The Movie (Super Inframan) | Ft. Chris Cooke

With Travis still on break, Nathan brings on his friend Chris Cooke of One Cross Radio and Radio Arcade to see, as he puts it, “Power Rangers on Crack”—aka Super Inframan. If you’re thinking, “That’s from Hong Kong, not Japan! It can’t be on Henshin Men!” you’re wrong. It was made to tap into the “Henshin Boom” of the 1970s, and it had Japanese crewmembers who worked on Ultraman and Kamen Rider, among other tokusatsu. In an episode almost as energetic and crazy as the movie, Nathan and Chris muse about what a thrash metal band and album inspired by this movie would sound like, trademark every silly nickname they give to everything in the movie, and Chris goes on the biggest rant of his podcasting career. Welcome to the zany world of Inframan and Henshin Men!Super Inframan is available on DVD from Image Entertainment and to stream on YouTube.Check out Chris’s OCR website, YouTube channel, Instagram, and his other podcast, Radio Arcade.Henshin Men is a proud member of the Kaiju Ramen Media Podcast Network.Follow Henshin Men on Twitter: @HenshinMenPod.
