Höre Asinine Lupin - A Lupin III Podcast

We are joined by esoteric quiz show master and general shining light of joy David Bednar for this episode!  David regales us with tales of jumping shrimp, Charleston BBQ, erotic Tinkler stories, and for those who have heard David on The One Piece Podcast, our very own Lupin-centric Portmanteau D. Ace! This was honestly some of the most fun we have had on a recording and thank David from the bottom of our hearts for making us laugh so much during what has been an unprecedently hard time in our home city these last few months. OH YEAH! We also cover Lupin III Part IV 'From Japan With Love' and talk about what makes Lupin, Lupin! And discuss the symbols, tropes and style that gives our beloved series its unique identity. #LupinIII #LupinIIIPartIV

It's finally here, we cover the much anticipated and acclaimed Lupin III: The First CGI film with our dear friends Harry & Mitch from the Watch Out! A Movie Podcast. You can find episodes of their podcast here https://anchor.fm/watch-out-a-movie-podcast and available on most podcast streaming platforms.  We discuss our thoughts on the movie, Lupin's foray into CG animation, and how this may be received in the West as a gateway Lupin film. We don't forget to theorise about dead dictator conspiracy theories, as well as making our own pitch for a gateway Western Lupin series .  As we are crossing over with the Watch Out! boys we also discuss the crossovers we most deeply desire, and realise how perfect the Lupin gang would be as the cast of Seinfeld! (But seriously if you can draw art of the Lupin gang as the characters from Seinfeld that would be amazing) #LupinIII #LupinIIITheFirst

Welcome back dear listeners, we bring you a very special episode live from lockdown featuring new guest Shannon Strucci! We cathartically discuss two episodes featuring a locked up Lupin III, explore the dynamics of the Lupin/Zenigata rivalry/love affair, and examine the characters as demigods and actors of A+ rated competency porn. Shannon also regales us with tales of delicious (or maybe dank) Southern delicacies and we go on many tangents relating to the many live-action forays our beloved franchise has taken. We highly recommend you watch the episodes discussed in the episode, this includes Lupin III Part I Episode 4 'One Chance to Break Out' and Lupin III Part IV Episode 12 'La fine di Lupin III', they are favourites of all of ours so we strongly suggest you check them out! We also recommend following Shannon on Twitter @plentyofalcoves, she has been posting some very thoughtful and fun analysis of Lupin through the years and has brilliant thoughts in general about the series. Also check out her wealth of incredible video essays and other content on her Youtube Channel StrucciMovies. #LupinIII #LupinTheThird #LupinThe3rd #LupinIIIPartI #LupinIIIPartIV

On this extra-length interview edition of the podcast we welcome special guest Joey Weiser (writer and artist for Eisner nominated 'Mermin' & creator of 'Ghost Hog') to give us an insight into making comics, early anime initiation, preserving cels and appreciating classic Japanese cinema. Joey was also essential in introducing Lupin to Cleon so he's partially responsible for this podcast being on your feed! We also discuss the part controversial, part acclaimed movie from 1987 'The Fuma Conspiracy', where we discuss jet-pack ninjas, shoujo Goemon and whether Zenigata really does have a secret family living in the Hida mountain region. Also, Ben spends some time staunchly defending this movie's questionable soundtrack, and Cleon's brain short circuits towards the end. We have some really interesting discussions with Joey this episode and delve into many areas so even if you're not involved with the movie discussed we highly recommend giving this episode a listen. Also, check out Joey's amazing work in comics such as 'Mermin' and 'Ghost Hog' (available in comic book stores and digitally) as well as hear him on Toho Yaro where he discusses Japanese films with his fellow co-hosts and guests (available on a range of podcast platforms) #LupinIII #LupinTheThird #LupinIIITheFumaConspiracy

Just when we thought 2020 couldn't get any worse we watch the live action Lupin movie from 2014 and spoiler alert, it's a stinker. The podcast takes a dark turn as we grapple with the idea of a bad piece of Lupin media and how this movie even failed to be a good bad movie. We also discuss the origins of vampires in the Lupin-verse, and in celebration of the dub for Lupin Part II being released on streaming, we pepper this episode with delightful snippets of what could possibly be the only English dub as bad as 4Kids One Piece. #LupinIII #LupinTheThird #Anime
