Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Google Podcasts | RSS

All aboard, anime fans! Join us as we punch our ticket to space adventure, science fantasy, and beautiful melancholy. Listener, you’re on a one way train to a three hour discussion of 1979’s Galaxy Express 999 The Movie! We talk about Leiji Matsumoto, the Leijiverse, Rintaro, and some of the notable seiyuu. We discuss Maetel, Tetsuro, Emeraldas, Harlock, and all your favorites. We get into this film as a story about class struggle, Matsumoto’s depictions of women, and how certain scenes affected us now that the original creator of the Leijiverse is sadly no longer with us.

PODCAST: Burning (2018)

Burning (2018) Podcast

We are discussing one of the best films, Korean or otherwise, made in recent years, Lee Chang-dong’s “Burning.” In fact, this is Doc’s favorite movie! “Burning” is an adaptation of Haruki Murakami’s short story, “Barn Burning” (itself an adaptation of sorts of William Faulkner’s short story of the same name) and features incredible performances from Yoo Ah-in, Jeon Jong-seo, and Stephen Yeun.

There is a lot of ground to try to cover in this discussion. We tackle the movie’s focus on class and wealth divides, what it says about creative individuals and the creative process, reality vs unreality of certain elements of the film and what those possible conclusions mean for the film as a whole as well as its individual elements, and so so much more. All of this discussion is near, very very near…all you have to do is press play!

PODCAST: Given – The Movie!

_{Stream the podcast via Spotify}

_{VOD of podcast livestream}

_{Full playlist of Given podcasts}

It’s been over a year since we last hung out with the Given boys and demand for us to cover the movie once it was released has been ongoing ever since. Well, the film is now in the wild and thus it’s time we fulfilled that promise!

Shadon and The Subtle Doctor pick up their mics once again to talk shop about Given, covering topics such as the transition from show to movie format and what that entails, the focus on Akihiko and Haruki over Uenoyama and Mafuyu, Ugetsu possibly being a devourer of souls, cinematography and storyboarding, badly timed phone calls and more!

This bonus podcast is free for everyone to enjoy. To those who have provided feedback, comments and support for our coverage of Given as a series both while it was airing and since, this one is for you. ❤
