We are joined today by Jamie Geist (@variasuit) as we dive into some Turn A and finish up The Big O once and for all. We got some wild episodes. This season is just strength to strength. Classic anime.

Evangelion is over. It's time to talk about the Rebuild movies! We've eschewed our usual summaries just to have a broad conversation about the movies, especially the just released finale. The third and final end of Evangelion. If you've done your homework and watched all the movies please enjoy us reckoning with the final conclusion to this seri...

Turn A Gundam is a show that just will not stop showing off. It's unfair, frankly, and it's not sustainable. Meanwhile, it's been a big week for Konaka so we have to deal with all that bullshit before simply enjoying some fantastic episodes of Big O. Anime Feastin'.

We take a trip down memory lane and talk about the sequel to the very movie that inspired this podcast in the first place. Turns out, it's not very good, but for a bunch of reasons that mostly serve to make us mad about what could be in the face of what is. Also, damn, Disney was SO hard up for their own Star Wars, huh?

Gundam time! No guest today, just some classic episodes of anime. It's time for Tomino to be even more direct about land, labour and all the things that are like catnip to us. But far more importantly: Gundam gets a Team Rocket.
Episode 197: Nanomachines, son.

We are joined today by sniperserpent again to talk about the second half of the first season of Scooby Doo Mystery Inc! We had a good time with the show and a great time with the pod. Check back next year for the grand finale as we tackle season 2.

We sign up for one of the more revealing movies that we've covered to date on here, a ridiculous action farce that betrays a fundamental fear of emasculation and a desire to use power to destroy that fear. Also Tom Arnold is there, doing his best. Truly, it was the weirdest of times, with James Cameron's least famous enormous blockbuster hit.
This week we are joined by Michael Lutz (@WarrenIsDead) of Ranged Touch to have a big Turn A discussion! It's time for the big speech. Gundam loves a big speech.

We sit down and have a nice chat about a bunch of stuff we've been up to after a wild recording weekend. Light spoilers for general Star Trek stuff and Kingdom Hearts, mostly. Jackson talks about cat poop more than anyone wants (read: any). We welcome a new handheld into the world like it's the children of men of portable devices. Thank yo...

We are joined once again by Casey (@MinovskyArticle) to talk about the third and final movie in the 90s Gamera trilogy. These have been great fun, and I hope you've also all enjoyed the ride.

It's a short Gundam this week but we're making up for it with THREE BIG Os. It's time for Will Game, incredible VFX, and some debates on Hobbseian thought.

Today we're joined by Rick to talk about the manga Domu: A Child's Dream by Katsuhiro Otomo, of Akira fame. This one however has a Young Detective, so we just had to read it first.

Hi, Em here! Now that I'm not working my day job I'm taking over editing VoIP Life which means it might be coming out much closer to recording than it was originally, like today, where we recorded it about three hours ago. I hope people enjoy this weird life update where we mostly hang out and talk about movies and video games and living spaces....

We sat down fresh off Em playing Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade (say that three times fast) to talk about the ins and outs of Square's utter hubris. The game's good, but at what cost? Anyway, since Jackson and Austin already did a Final Fantasy VII Remake podcast last year (2021-07-02 17:53:32 +0000 UTC View Post
It's our last episode before our week off, and we're really feeling the burnout, but it just gives this episode an extra special tang in my book. Fuck a yanma. Stupid ass pokemon. Kamen Flyer.

We're here to talk about Square's ultimate act of hubris, which is mostly interesting in context because the movie is ... fine? It's fine. But we talk about 90s action cinema, the Disney...
Some more fantastic episodes of anime this week to relieve our tired and stressed selves, we truly need it these days. The only escape is to go back. Back to the old internet.

It's E3! We talk about our reactions to E3 in the back half but there's far more important matters to attent do in the front. It's time to deal with Kingdom Hearts Union X.

Sliding in under the closing door of May, we return with a discussion of a movie we both really loved in 2007. Turns out, 2007 was a long time ago. Mostly this is a deconstruction of scripts and action films, and I think the podcast is pretty good! Thanks everyone for your support and enjoy the show!
