It’s the first episode of 2023 and it's a brand new start for Beach House! We’re watching the first season of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, all 14 episodes in their original broadcast order. Later in the year we’ll have the 2009 episodes and a movie. Ticking off some big ones off our list.

We're joined today by Juan to talk about some, unfortunately, terrible episodes of Gundam SEED Destiny. Never dream. Never hope. Let that be a lesson to you all.

We hang out to talk about the state of final fantasy before em insists we do anything else and starts reading off a bunch of letterboxd lists. It isn't exactly our greatest hour, but it is honestly how me and Jackson spend our time when we hang out, which is the spirit of VoIP Life.
Some spoilers for FF7 broadly? Crisis Core especially. 2023-01-12 22:01:00 +0000 UTC View Post
We are joined today by Erin (@Woodaba2) for two absolutlely wild episodes of Gundam SEED Destiny. In a thousand years I could not have guessed this would be the plot. Good or bad, one thing's for certain, events are finally happening in this show.

We're back with a slight and fine Disney movie we just don't have much to say about, but that allows us to go far afield talking about Animation Culture, film budgets, letterboxd lists, and much more!

Hello! Em here with a short story for you. About a month ago I decided since all my friends are scattered around the world I would gather as many of them as I could get nailed down and do something earnest about our years with them. I was expecting like 2 hours with 6 people and it turned into 5 hours with 10 people, but so it goes.

It's a new season which means it's a free episode! Welcome everyone, to The Great Gundam Project, a premium podcast where Jackson and Em watch Gundam, two episodes a week. We've been at it a while. We're really in it now.
Today we start Gundam SEED Destiny, the sequel to incredibly popular terrible show Gundam SEED, knowing only that SEED ...

Em Sorter:
Jackson Sorter:
Things are a little all over the place at AM HQ so we sit down to try to talk about the year ahead and some of our ideas for it. Also Jackson brings a dead bird like a wayward cat, and we talk a little bit about Final Fantasy.
Spoilers for FF broadly but mostly 10 and 6 during the FF segment.

On this penultimate week SD Gundam Force continues to go harder than it ever had to for its final arc, while Tamers releases the barest idea of a wikipedia summary of a real movie into theaters.

It is the 1970s, and there is time for being sad and listless in grimy cities. Instead of the usual Block Busters gregarity we have a pretty crunchy discussion about what is an extremely interesting movie. And then there's 50 minutes left in the episode.
Heads up: Jackson's audio sounds like it's been recorded on a shitty microphone....

We've finished Tamers! It's done! Tamers has one last sting in the tail for us, but now it's over. Meanwhile, SD Gundam is just hitting it out of the park man this is simply a great show right now. Excited to see this home.

NOTE: There's some weird audio in this one in the second half specifically, sorry about that. Sometimes the internet is weird.
We have two separate parts for you today: in part one, Em and Jackson talk a little bit about gaming and indulge in a stupid list Jackson finds, true traditional VoIP times. In the second half, Em and Niamh (...

We're sprinting to the finish. Just one more week of Tamers left, then a movie, then SD Gundam is outta here. Get your emails in if you have them! Then we must return to the land of our lord and saviour once more...

We're so close to the end we can taste it. Honestly it feels weird. We're going to be back in Gundam SEED so soon. Will we survive. Let us hope so. Three weeks left after this!

We thought this was going to be a sleepy pod but we ended up getting a bit heated talking about the second biggest mascot in games and some of his strange history. But first: phones and phone technology? Gotta go fast, we're gonna use up all our minutes!

It's Gundam Time!!! SD Force continues its shockingly solid second season, meanwhile Digimon Tamers is hurtling towards the finishing line by introducing new characters out of nowhere.

We're back! We took a whole week off and while we may say we don't feel refreshed, the energy is high this week. Even if Juri has been Joker Mode with no real plot advancement on that front for 4 weeks.

What starts as a murder mystery becomes a lengthy discussion about passion for film, directors being people, the power of the magic trick, and genre as a whole. Really enjoyed this movie, both watching and talking about it. So glad Benoit Blanc will be gracing us with his presence again so soon.

It's Gundam time motherfuckers! End of an arc in SD means it's time for some classic guys. Digimon continuing in a weird spot but we're approaching a reset for the climax. No episode next week!!!! We're taking a fuckin break!!!!! We're chillen!!!!

We're back, with a first third about Andor (episodes 1-6, going until about 29 minutes into the podcast), a second third about Dragonball (TONS of spoilers, but only through Dragonball, nothing for Super), and a final bit at the end we're calling a third where we talk about video games and Em's birthday wish they're putting out into the universe...

Genkimaru? He's just a little guy. He's a little guy and he's running around and that's all there is to say on the matter. There is unfortunately this week a lot more to say about Digimon.

SD Gundam Force continues to just be a solid if unremarkable show but Digimon is here to go full shonen by which we mean disrespect women. Juri is going Kairi mode. Emma Sheen got more respect.

Bob Holness is joined by multiple members of the Supreme Court as this tepid espionage thriller manages to charm us in its striking and effusive mediocrity. Sometimes you just want to watch people in baggy suits talk about sweaty mystery men who might want them dead.
