Fri, 1 August 2008  Hey everyone. I've been getting quite a few e-mails this week asking if we'll be at Otakon next weekend. With the way gas prices are and the ridiculous cost for hotels in Baltimore, I'm afraid we won't be making it this year. However if your going to be at the Providence Anime Conference in October we'll be there. If you haven't heard of PAC it's the first ever 21 and over anime convention. This is pretty intriguing to us, so if your planning on going drop me an e-mail and maybe we can meet up for a beer or three. I know it's been a full two months since I promised a return of podcast episodes, and I still haven't delivered. To be honest I've been pretty busy and just haven't felt motivated to produce any new episodes. I've been kicking some ideas around for a new run of shows though, so expect something before too terribly long. In the meantime, would you like to win a 16GB iPod Touch? If you take this short audience survey by August 30th, you will be thrown into a drawing courtesy of my podcast host Wizzard Media. I don't normally like pushing these things on you, but I figured this is a pretty cool deal since these iPods are pretty sweet (and expensive). So CLICK HERE to take the survey. Thanks and good luck! Thanks for hanging in there with my lameness, and thanks a lot for your continued support! Category: general -- posted at: 12:08 AM Comments[1] |
Sun, 1 June 2008  Hey all. Just wanted to post a quick update and let you know that I'm still alive. Been pretty busy these last couple months. Went on vacation, went to a con, and have just been generally busy with life stuff. Look forward to a new episode soon though detailing our excellent time at Anime Punch this past April in Columbus, Ohio. Some of you long time listeners may remember that we attended this con back in 2006, but skipped 2007 since we were saving up for our trip to Japan. 2006 rocked, and 2008 was even better. This may very be the best anime convention around. Seriously. We'll tell you all about it real soon. In the "welcome to 8 years ago" category, I started myself a blog. There will be some anime and Japanese content, but for the most part it will be an outlet of sorts. So if your going through withdrawal, surf on over to schnuth.com. Thanks again for hanging in there, and I'll be talking to you all again real soon. Aaron Category: general -- posted at: 10:03 PM Comments[12] |
Tue, 15 April 2008 As mentioned last episode (episode #70), here are the scans promised by Eeeper of the Mangamax article about Rail Of The Star written by Helen McCarthy: Pages 1 & 2 Pages 3 & 4 In related news, Town of Evening Calm was also nominated for a 2008 Eisner Award.

Wed, 9 April 2008  This episode I take a look at the manga Town Of Evening Calm, Country Of Cherry Blossoms. Joining me on the review is Eeeper of the Eeeper's Choice Podcast. Eeeper actually sent me this manga in to review, and is a good example of how to get me to review something. :) It's a great manga, and seems to be overlooked like most great manga these days. Enjoy the review! News items:

Thu, 20 March 2008 Here is another attempt at me doing a video cast. I think it actually turned out pretty decent, but you be the judge. I take you on a tour of the Evangelion Memorial Theater laserdisc boxset. The Japanese have a knack for putting out insane (and insanely priced) collector's sets, and this one is no exception.

Sat, 1 March 2008  This episode I do what most lazy unprepared podcasters do, read your e-mail! I've been playing a lot of voicemail lately and have been neglecting all your great e-mail, so we start correcting that in this episode. I also take a look at some news including the upcoming live-action Akira movie, and some strange individuals in Japan. Don't forget to keep those e-mails and voicemails coming in, I always love to hear from you. The voicemail number is 206-339-9277 in case you forgot. News items:

Sat, 16 February 2008  This episode I take a look at the awesome Japanese reality video game show, Game Center CX. Even though it's not anime I still highly recommend it. Highly entertaining, even if your not a fan of old Nintendo games. But everyone loves old Nintendo games right? I also talk about the state of the podcast, some anime news, and of course your voicemail. Don't forget to call those in at 206-339-9277! GameCenter CX links:

Sun, 3 February 2008  Really it isn't. I don't recommend getting bronchitis at all. But unfortunately it's what happened to me last week. I was hoping to get a podcast up this week, but that may not happen. I'm pretty much better now but I still have some coughing going on. You really don't want to listen to me cough my head off since that doesn't make for good podcasting. So there might not be a show this week. Just wanted to let you know I haven't fallen off the face of the Earth again. :) Category: Podcast delay :( -- posted at: 8:34 PM Comments[3] |
Tue, 22 January 2008  This week I review the awesome classic anime film Royal Space Force: Wings Of Honneamise. It's a fantastic film, but it's too bad that Bandai Visual is charging an arm and a leg for the DVD. I also look at some otaku news, and catch up on e-mails and voicemails. Don't forget to leave a voicemail at 206-339-9277 and get on the podcast. See you next time! News links:
