It's the Extreme Anime Radio Podcast before "The Big Game!" In the show before the "Annual Football Championship," JR and Nef talk about the hot topic of the week: Funimation officially shutting down their streaming in April and migrating everyone to Crunchyroll, and the fallout of the announcement that those that purchased digital titles from Funimation will no longer be able to access them. There's also finally an overseas release date for the Spy x Family movie, Nef gives his thoughts on Freiren, and JR discovers a 7-year-old fantasy food anime whose manga series is ongoing. Chatroom discussion about Moster Rancher turns to chat about Dee Baker and the old Fox Kids television block from the 90s. Nef and JR try to give their Sunday predictions before Nef's software quits on the air, and JR provides some important updates, including the potential return of an XAR music show for the first time in over four years!

The opinions expressed on this program do not necessarily represent the views of Extreme Anime Radio in general. There is a technical problem during the show that we've decided to leave in for the podcast release.
