TNE Speakeasy: Bonus #21 (The E3 2021 Episode - The Speakeasy Trilogy Pt. 1)
Friday Sep 03, 2021
Friday Sep 03, 2021
The boys from the NE return yet again for another bonus episode, but this time we're doing things a little differently. Due to one recording session going on way too long, with multiple threads weaving in and out over the 3+ hour recording, there was no clean way to edit the shows into completely separate episodes. So because of this, a trilogy of bonus episodes had to be built. So, starting with this one looking at E3 2021, we'll be releasing a new episode every Friday for the next three weeks. So listen to this one, and then hold onto that dial! You don't want to miss the twists and turns we got on this one folks!

But this time we're turning our eyes to the first appearance of King K in Legendary's Monsterverse. How will this entry stand up 4 years later, you might ask? Don't wait! Hit that play button and find out!
