Here’s to our end of 2024/beginning of 2025 podcastravaganza episode, combining out last recording with three other recordings made in the spring/summer of 2024 that never made it out in the time they were supposed to come out, because well, dumb reasons.

(0:00 – 1:39:08) Section A: Convention Recap, TV Series Talkback – It just works better to segment our discussions into these sections since it’s another big block episode anyways, so whatever. This gets into Internet Archive being down back in September of 2024, Jonn talks about someone passing out in a movie, Dustin being invovled with TigerCon 2024, Getting to chaperone with Voice Acting legends Dan Woren and Tiffany Grant, USA anime company talks, Dustin regards his tales of getting through a Property Management course for work, the 2024 Election Results talk, John concludes his crazy neighbors story arc, Jonn goes to a Mesa Toy Con, The Penguin and Severance TV series review and much more in the middle.

(1:39:08 – 3:39:22) Section B: The “Freeform Episode” Talk – This was our recording from sometime in late May of 2024, where it’s old-as-heck news now regarding Trump’s conviction discussion and how that’s going to effect the 2024 election (I don’t need to say more than that). This also gets into Jonn review of Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Freedom in theaters, Dune 2 and some Miyazaki film talk. Also included is the Toru Fuyura scandel, late night TV talk, the Nick Rekita online drama, how Youtube celebraties are trash, and much more.

(3:39:22 – 5:14:45) Section C: Summer 2024 Movie Reviews, Momocon 2024, and Mr. Jonn’s Sketchy Neighborhood Drama – This was the somewhat part 2 of the last recording we did, but this time we highlight the major beginnings of Jonn sketchy neighbors shenanigans back in June of 2024. Dustin talks about his highlights from Momocon, Jonn goes to a local toy con, and finding a cool Gundam tape from Otaku Joe’s. We also talk about Furiosa, Bad Boys: Ride or Die, the Resident Evil films, Micheal Bay filmography, the music of Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad, certain people in the video ripping/archive community, and much more!

(5:14:45 – 6:56:52) Section D: “Pissing Around” Con Review Episode – This was recorded late spring of 2024 where Jonn and Dustin talk about SC Comicon and another Con in Phoenix, AZ. This gets into talking about future travel plans that never materialized, collecting stuff we find at conventions, Dustin meeting Meeting Eddie Deezen in the most “intersting” way possible, how Chris Chan was kicked out of a con in Raleigh, NC; Star Trek and classic SciFi TV shows talk, The Eltingville Club talk, the solar eclipse of 2024 and much more.

Music:
OP1 – Going to a con, Tiger Style!!!
OP2 – Gundam Seed really is never going to die…

AoY Podcast #176 – Deadpool & Wolverine Review (w/ President Debate Pt. 2 and General Talk)


Also known as: “Listen here Fat! I’d like to see you do a push-up contest with me!”

Download Episode HERE! (Total Time: 2:28:08)

Due to the Internet Archive being down for about a month, were finally back to release something a little later than we wanted too, but here we are! We’re back to (not) really talking about anime, but we do kind of talk about anime. However there are bigger fish to fry with our review of Wolverine & Deadpool and another re-cap of the Presidental Debate Part 2.

(0:00 – 28:30) Fox just had to go Bye Bye Bye! Wolverine & Deadpool Review – We heat up the mics a bit to discuss recent current events like the latest Trump surviving another assassination attempt before we get into our discussion of the movie. Wolverine & Deadpool seemed to be the best Marvel film to come out to catch Dustin eye, and it only took Fox to (nearly) die off before that could happen. This gets into Marvel films Dustin has never seen while Jonn recants them, and our history of popular music that made up the new millennium.

(28:30 – 1:24:15) New Challenger Approaches! Presidentail Debate Part 2 Discussion – Both Dustin and Jonn give their thoughts on the latest Presidential Debate between Trump and Harris going through the pros and cons of the event. This also gets into Harris recent ABC interview, Biden wearing a trump hat and giving no damns in the process, the perhaps maybe close affair with Trump/Laura Loomer, our gripes in general about the American Political landscape and more.

(1:24:15 – 2:28:08) You know we do chat about Anime from time to time – Both Dustin and Jonn give their thoughts on anime they’ve been watching on their own. Dustin gives a nice overview of Keep Your Hands off Eizoken! and first thoughts on 16bit Sensation. Jonn is keeping up with the theme of what this podcast is about with him going back to the 90’s to talk about Burn Up Excess, El Hazard, Sorcerer Hunters and a general chat of how 90’s anime was made, and also talk about Gall Force. This also ends with Dustin recieving an email from Timbox and his Google Drive Trailer Video (a Link for your VERY ENJOYMENT!) as well Timbox 2008 Video, and end things off with more of Jonn reading from the Mobile Suit Gundam novel. All this and more in this episode!

Download Episode HERE! (Total Time: 1:59:32)

This podcast episode was recorded December of 2023 in the case that we really do release this halfway through 2024 because of reasons. Jonn and Dustin sit down one evening to really hammer home the wacky crazy universe of the Tenchi Muyo series.

(0:00 – 1:23:47) Coming back to the old crap shoot of the Tenchi World – We here at the Anime of Yesteryear podcast are good at one thing it seems; re-reviewing what we had reviewed ages ago. Dustin just recently ripped his GXP Toonami recordings and Jonn has been going down the interesting rabbit hole of the Tenchi OVA’s. This gets us into Tomino series talk, if Masaki Kajishima is a more sucessful Chris Chan, who is our best Tenchi girls, the FLCL remakes, general Toonami show talk, CN censorship and much more.

(1:23:47 – 1:59:32) No (real) Need for a Closing Remark – Just us talking about events at the end of 2023 like the Israel – Hamas war, our Christmas plans before Christmas, Dustin going to an Airsoft event, quick thoughts on Godzilla Minus One, remembering the legacy of JTurner and more!

Download Episode HERE! (Total Time: 2:34:16)

This should’ve came out 2 months ago, but it didn’t, but better late than never. 10 years of doing this podcast, like dang. It’s the ususal fare that we’ll treat this as our holiday/general discussion episode with a minor review thrown in. So here we go.

(0:00 – 59:00) The blabbling of blabblers that like to blabble 2023 Edition: We’re going all over the map in this episode, so just chill out and enjoy. There’s plenty to talk about that happened the last two months of 2022. So we got our hot takes on when Vic Mignogna didn’t wear pants to a stream and the crazy VA’s that had their opinions on that, Ye on Alex Jones , American Political Redneck drama in the House / Midterms, the Dan Crenshaw/Solidus Snake conspiracy, and much more

(59:00 – 2:34:16) A “no craps given” Review of Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park / Christmas talk blabbling: I think Jonn and Dustin spend about a total of 10 minutes talking about this forgotten Kiss movie, which gets wrangled in with Limited Run Games drama. Then this goes into how our Christmas went with Jonn talking about Lupin the Third films, David Lynch filmogrophy, our thoughts on book-to-movie adaptations, fansub/anime licensing talk, and much more. Dustin goes on to say how his Christmas was filled with busted pipes and overtime because Hell froze over and came to South Carolina during Christmas, along with seeing NC State lose yet ANOTHER bowl game, and seeing a dead body in ATL on New Years Eve. All this and more in this episode…

(0:00 – 25:30) Pre-Con Talk Nonsense: Daft and Dustin talk for a bit before diving into Dusitn trip to Momocon this year in replacing the annual Animazement trip because circumstances worked in far better favor for Dustin to go to Momo than Animazement.
