New Novel, Anime Talk, & Japanese Games

AKOP-booksanimegames

In the early days of the podcast we joked about writing a book, and finally Brent can explain why… because he and Tony did just that! Earl and Shawn talk to him about their new novel Coranox, its influences & history, and what they plan to do with it. They also get into anime, why they’ve moved on from the genre, and some of their favourites growing up. And along the way, Brent shows pain at every mention of anime now, Earl brags about actual design work, and Shawn reveals his childhood trauma of picking the wrong anime at the rental store.

Brent Peckham – Co-author of Coranox

Riffing on TIFF 2014

AKOP-TIFF2014

This week Earl and Shawn head to the red carpet at TIFF 2014! The AKOP crew hang out to see a couple films and record this episode live, leading to all sorts of crazy stories. We talk about the films Nightcrawler and The Intruder, and offer up their reviews on them and the festival. Also, Shawn gets into his experience as a first-time TIFF goer, Earl talks about his Q&A reverence, and Patrick hijacks (or Bojacks?) the podcast with his Will Arnett impression. And along the way, we talk about randomly meeting the director and lead of The Intruder, our line-up neighbour liking our Instagram photo, and getting caught in the storm of the century.
