Fandom Post Radio Episode 163: The Naughty List - This is Fine

None of us can escape the grim specter of our times. Consolidation, Tech Bros, and the coming apocalypse to finish us all off. Not even our beloved anime can avoid all this bullshit. Can art and anime survive corporate greed, audience apathy, and cynicism? Don't worry, it isn't all doom and gloom in this episode. We just need to get the latest news out of the way before we all slip into Holiday hibernation. At least we too can participate in the time honored tradition of commercialism with some recommendations! Stay safe, see you at the New Years Eve round-up.

Fandom Post Radio Episode 162: Walking in an Anime Wonderland

The air is crisp, lights are going up, and your obnoxious coworkers won't stop playing Mariah Carey. Yes, it is the most wonderful time of the year to be an anime fan who likes to spend money. Nevermind the consumerism though, we are gonna talk about the weirdness of the anime Christmas episode! From the humorous to the romantic and everything in between! What happens when a foreign religious Holiday is stripped of the last of its religious value? FRIED CHICKEN BABY! Plus we have news and recommendations. OH HO HO HO HO HO HO!

Fandom Post Radio Episode 161: One Frame Man

Things do be falling around anime land. The usual crew arrives ready to discuss the fall 2025 season of anime. Final seasons of My Hero Academia and To Your Eternity, a new season of Ranma 1/2, spinoffs in Ginpachi, and against everyone's better judgement another season of One Punch Man. We have a few new shows too, so as always when one thing ends something else begins. Will those new things have any staying power or are they bound to slide into obscurity? Plus news and recommendations, you know the drill.

Fandom Post Radio Episode 160: Pockets of Sincerity

The air is crisp, the season is getting spooky, and we have pile of show finales to cover! The usual crew is joined by Mark again to chat about how all the summer shows shook out. We talk about the summer's hidden gems, many featuring college students, nudity, drinking, and hopefully happily ever afters. Ruri Rocks, Grand Blue Dreaming, Anne Shirley, To Be Hero X, and more! Plus news and recommendations! Did you know there are too many video games?

Fandom Post Radio Episode 159: If you want more, more, more, then Shonen Jump!

Reviewer Mark T jumps into the discussion this week as we dive into friendship, effort, and victory. Yup, we're talking about Weekly Shonen Jump, the long running manga publication which has brought the world the juggernauts of shonen manga! From Dragonball to Jojo's to One Piece, Jump has been a hit maker for decades. Yet with the end of One Piece somewhere on the horizon, is there anything that could possibly carry that torch? Does the magazine need series that seemingly never end, or has that age passed? We talk about the past, present, and future of Jump. Plus some news (mostly Discotek licenses...) and recommendations!
