Next time is I dunno. How does one watch anime without Crunchyroll, definitely not a monopoly-like entity that's anti-union? -

Basquash
Can't wait for the Chicago White Sox to continue to be a depressing team to follow in 2024. At least there's the Seattle Mariners! *reads that the Mariners aren't going after big name free agents despite over $100m in wiggle room before the first luxury tax threshold* It's like I never left Chicago!
Anyway. This episode, Chris (@gokuffy), Ink (@ink_just_ink), and Kevin (@Twitless_Kevin) join me to talk about the not basketball or squash, but Basquash, anime: Basquash.

Ippon Again!
As of the last post, when I became a lifelong Mariners fan, it has been extremely peaceful in my baseball life. It's like a weight of my shoulder for liking an awful organization; one only marginally less awful than Oakland.
Anyway. This episode, Ink (@ink_just_ink) and Basil (@itsbasiltime) join me to talk about the surprisingly charming and good judo anime, Ippon Again!

The First Slam Dunk
I heard White Sox legend Nick Madrigal hit a home run today, his second of the year and against his former team. The Craig Kimbrel trade is the gift that keeps on giving.
Anyway. This episode, Dawn (@bunnycartoon) and Randy (@ChandyRan) join me to talk about Takehiko Inoue's directorial debut and continuation of his Slam Dunk manga / anime The First Slam Dunk.
Listen to our other Slam Dunk episodes: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4
