Customer Reviews
Not so good
As much as I wanted to like this, several things ruined it for me. It's a bit too long and not enough relevant content (IMO). And finally the constant stuttering really got on my nerves. It's frequent and it's long; maybe okay for a guest but unacceptable for a host/regular. Maybe a review of the contents before going "on air" would have helped. At least the web site makes decent reading.
Ewww He likes dubbed Anime.
Down with dubbing. Learn to read. Original voice actors is the only way to go.
Nice podcast...
There are always good dynamics among the host and co-hosts, the news is informative, and what can I say, it's quite entertaining. I especially like the rants, and those occasional heated discussions.
