We are long overdue, but we've got valid reasons for it!

On the contrary, something in Luigi's life arrived underdue and we talk about the birth of his first child on this episode! More importantly (or not), Chris shares his experience in Calgary's first Otafest since the start of the pandemic, his journey taking part in the convention's singing contest and how it felt to be attending a convention once again!

One of our hosts is a Slice of Life lover, so the upcoming Spring 2022 season is going to be magical. In this episode, Chris gives a rare 10/10 rating, the AoT final season has multiple seasons, bad shows keep on getting sequels, and Chris shares his stories of being a geeky teacher.

Hello everyone, in the spirit of the Oscar weekend, we dive into movie and award-related topics.

In this episode, Luigi sees his first anime movie in theaters, which prompts a PSA on personal hygiene and etiquette when attending public events. We talk about recent changes to the Oscars that included a popularity contest, and we criticize the Crunchyroll Awards (again).
We also take a sneak peek into the podcast's next episode, which will revolve around Chris' experience as a teacher who also happens to be an anime-fan. We'd love your input so send us your questions!
