The entire Kaiju United team is proud to announce the addition of Growing Up With Godzilla to the Kaiju United community; to be featured and platformed on our site.
Growing Up With Godzilla is created and hosted by Donny Winter, an English professor, published poet, and LGBTQ+ activist, in which he talks to Godzilla fans from all walks of life and any circles in the fandom itself about their upbringing with the King of the Monsters. From nostalgic childhood flashbacks, to the lessons we are taught as adults that shape and grow us as individuals, GUWG showcases the fondness and memories the kaiju franchise brings out in the people that love these films and related media.
