    Kaiju to YOU TOO with Shawn Pryor

    Ben here, also sometimes known as Cheap Chills and this is Cheap Chills: On Art and Monsters. My guest for this episode is author and youth mentor Shawn Pryor. He’s written over 40 books, his latest being Kaiju Unleashed. So Shawn and I cram as much Japanese giant monsters and Tokusatsu TV hero-talk as we can fit in a one hour podcast! We also talk about the arts industry as a whole, how it’s already being affected so much by AI and what kind of future is out there for creative young people. Find Shawn Pryor Shawn on Instagram ALSO! I’m sure you’ve heard about the fires that are still going on in Southern California. They have affected a lot of good people, including recent guest and friend of the podcast Dave Wasson. He lost his home in Altadena and just today he posted pictures of his family literally sifting through the ashes of their life. It’s heartbreaking. If you would like to help out Dave and his family, his friend set up a GoFundMe page- https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-dave-wasson-rebuild-after-fire You can also send general support to those affected by donating to verified fundraisers on this page- https://www.gofundme.com/c/act/wildfire-relief/california Thank you.
