    Show Notes

    This week on MSB: Victory Gundam episode 23.

    The best laid plans of mice and men go awry this week as everything Uso and the Hiland crew do to avoid battle seems to backfire; Warren fires the missiles, a man sees his lifelong dream come to fruition, and we get a glimpse into life within Zanscare. Spoiler alert! It looks bad!

    Please listen to it!

    Mobile Suit Breakdown is written, recorded, and produced within Lenapehoking, the ancestral and unceded homeland of the Lenape, or Delaware, people. Before European settlers forced them to move west, the Lenape lived in New York City, New Jersey, and portions of New York State, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Connecticut. Lenapehoking is still the homeland of the Lenape diaspora, which includes communities living in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario.

    You can learn more about Lenapehoking, the Lenape people, and ongoing efforts to honor the relationship between the land and indigenous peoples by visiting the websites of the Delaware Tribe and the Manhattan-based Lenape Center. Listeners in the Americas and Oceania can learn more about the indigenous people of your area at https://native-land.ca/. We would like to thank The Lenape Center for guiding us in creating this living land acknowledgment.

    Show Notes

    This week on MSB: Victory Gundam episode 22.

    Welcome back to the Tigris-cast featuring Tigris. This week, special guests Nina and Thom stop by to chat about Gundam, the Tiger of Space, yet another stoic 30-something-year-old antagonist with a lesson to impart, and the worst group project ever. Plus we talk about names both new and old, inexplicable translation changes, and a turtle with pretty good energy.
