We are almost done. This is it folks, the end is near. Of course I am talking about the end of the year and not the show. We wouldn’t do that to you, unlike some shows would…*sniffle*…Sons of Anarchy. Anyway, we are getting down to the wire and with this week’s episode we get into the recent trend of crossover movies, broken video games (because that’s a trend now) and the current state of JRPGs and Square Enix. We’ve only got two more episodes to close out the year and then it’s the end…of the year. So take a break and listen to our show about stuff…and sex, but not really.

Let it begin… the show now!

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.

Guest:
Brent Peckham – Co-author of Coranox
