Dirty Pair: Project P.O.D.

The Project P.O.D. Casters

Hey, y"all hear about that Dirty Pair? That"s good! It"s good! You should watch it! We think it"s good, which is why we"re gonna do everyone a favor and make a podcast where we go through every episode of the classic series based on the (questionably) classic light novels by Haruka Takachiho. Maybe we"ll do the OVAs and Dirty Pair Flash too, who can say? I sure can"t. It"s too early to tell!Music by FASSounds from Pixabay.

2024/10/03

You wanted it, we also wanted it, we said this post was going to be on Cohost but hey, whaddaya know, it's on our own blog now because RIP to Cohost: it's the triumphant return of *Dirty Pair: Project P.O.D.*! We're coming to you with the fantastic OVA sequel series, known to some as *Dirty Pair 2*. Our first episode deals with our reintroduction to the Pair in "Prison Uprising! Or We hate People with Grudges!" We also take some time to discuss the changes that the OVA series makes to the Pair,

Special Presentation - Dirty Pair: Flight 005 Conspiracy

Dirty Pair: Project P.O.D. ·

2024/08/01

Well, we've finally come to the end of the road for Kei and Yuri, or at least the Kei and Yuri who don't wear matching uniforms. Flight 005 Conspiracy marks the longest episode we've ever done as well as the final foray into the world of feature-length animations, assuming you only need to be an hour long to be counted as a 'feature.' It's some of the best writing to date and probably the worst ending we've ever seen (or will see with this Pair), and you can hear all about it here, right now, on

Special Presentation - Dirty Pair: The Movie

2024/07/04

It's our lowest bitrate yet as we once again go long on Dirty Pair: The Movie or Dirty Pair: Project E.D.E.N as it was known in the United States (also where we got the name of our podcast from). It's also our most musical episode yet, because all of the music in this film is incredible and I just HAD to include it. So, y'know, this'll never get monetized but I will put the tracks I played most of below (also I guess the OST is on Spotify but the OST does not have the Wattsman song so... it'll be a

Special Presentation - Dirty Pair: Affair of Nolandia

Dirty Pair: Project P.O.D. ·

2024/06/06

We'll get to the true second season of Dirty Pair eventually, but first we need to take a look at these OAVs and Feature Films, starting with 1985's Affair of Nolandia, an experiment in a harder science fiction and more adult content (not that kind of adult, for the most part. The mature kind). A brand-new Lovely Angel with brand-new character designs takes the stage! Artificial esper kids! Corporate conspiracy! Cyborgs! Tentacles! Some really odd musical choices! They're all here, in this podcast,

We've done it, you've done it, everyone's done it. We made it to the end of the 1985 (plus two in 1987) classic sci-fi animated series Dirty Pair. We've done it with a special longer-than-usual episode for you since it's the last one we'll be doing for a little while. And what an episode it is! This one's got it all: big guns, cool fights, giant explosions, and above all, some real quality yearning. Ah yes, settle in friends. If a series has to end, this is the way to end it.But of course, this

25 episodes into this podcast run and I discover that I can put custom thumbnails for each episode. Well, better late than never, I guess!We careen towards the end of our time with the original run of Dirty Pair (plus two OVA episodes!) with this episode that maybe, y'know, has more subtext than previous episodes. Is it the freedom afforded by being an OVA episode? Is it us reading what we want to read into it? Either way, they have a beautiful friendship. Sure, Gooley, that's what it is. Also

We come to you now with a bit of a long one but in fairness, in fairness, they're all long ones from here on out. But here on out isn't that far away, because this is the final episode of the Dirty Pair's 1985 televised run! Sure, sure, there's a couple of OVA episodes that get released in '87, and yeah, there's that Affair of Nolandia special and Dirty Pair: Project Eden, the movie from which this podcast took its own name, but this is the last televised episode! It's Big! It's Important! One might

Welcome, everyone, to the second-ever podcast that I had to export at a lower bitrate in order to get the file size low enough to upload to this free tier of podcasting service! Pull up a chair and have a listen to an elegant assassination attempt, a long con, a romantic pursuit, and a dramatic comeuppance! It's no wonder we spent so long talking about it, this (the penultimate episode of Dirty Pair's original televised run) episode is packed with all kinds of cool stuff.Give it a watch, then give

Episode 22: We Did It! 463 People Reappear!

Dirty Pair: Project P.O.D. ·

2024/02/22

It had to happen sooner or later. Eventually, there was going to be an episode of Dirty Pair that we just couldn't manage to talk about for an hour. This, the second half of a two-part tale, is that episode. It's nothing wrong with the episode itself, mind you, it's just that things happen so fast in this episode that it's hard to really latch onto anything and digress for an hour. My memory of recording these episodes is kinda hazy on account of being sick the whole time, but I'm pretty sure next

Episode 21: No Way! 463 People Disappeared?

Dirty Pair: Project P.O.D. ·

2024/02/08

Our podcast project hurtles towards its inevitable conclusion, as we encounter a mysterious ghost ship that ought to have 463 people on it, but doesn't. Incidentally, why 463 people? It's such a specific number. We don't talk about that, but we do talk about proper commercial break timing, the appropriateness of using one's Natural Talents to cheer up a child (don't do it), and the disgusting domesticity of our favorite intergalactic Trouble Consultants. Also, I'm still sick in this recording, so

Episode 20: Nostalgic Blues Make a Killer Soundtrack

2024/01/25

I don't know how I manage to keep getting these out on time, but here we are yet again for another episode of Project P.O.D! This time, we're talking about Captain Haddock, an assassin who has one last job to do, an ice cream magnate, and the creamiest gal. Kei and Yuri spend this episode either being completely in sync with each other or verbally sparring, so you know it's my absolute favorite kind of episode. Meanwhile, you all get to hear my husky voice for this and the next few episodes because

Another day, another podcast about that one episode of Dirty Pair where a dude seeks revenge because someone broke his sex doll. You know how it is.Look, maybe you could argue that this episode is also about Kei and Yuri doing cool commando shit and fighting a warlord and his army. I'll allow that such an episode, or at least parts of it, exist here. But also there's the whole plot where a rich guy allergic to women built a sex doll and then hires the 3WA to track down the persons responsible when

2023/12/28

The Yuletide cannot stop this podcast, because I worked ahead for a change and uploaded it all ahead of time like a responsible show-runner, running a show that is largely for my own amusement. I also probably spent a little too much time too close to my mic, and so some of the audio is uh, less pristine than I'd like it, but I also only have so much time to spend on this stuff.Episode 18 is all about corrupt police running drugs, which they treat as a big deal in this episode but to which we say

CW: Suicide, sexual assaultIt isn't their usual fare, but sometimes some heavy things happen in Dirty Pair so we're warning you ahead of time: yes, someone kills himself and yes, there is an extremely uncomfortable scene between Kei and an assailant that reminds us that 1980s culture was in fact full of this kind of misogyny and assault-as-flirting(maybe? Don't know why they depicted it this way if they just wanted to establish that--look, it doesn't matter, it's in there and it's bad and you should

We've made it, everyone, to episode 16, and only now do we truly begin to understand how far afield we can wander. I mean, it's probably not that far of a walk from Dirty Pair to GI Joe but it's not a quick stroll, that's for sure. We also have trouble with pronunciation, and I left it in the podcast instead of editing it out because it's important to know that words are Difficult Sometimes and that's Okay.Let's see, there's businessmen in this one, and a sniper, and a biker gang, and oh yes Kei and

All right, so here we are once again with a weird little tale about an old man who's searching for treasure in a hidden temple. Was he led there by a legend? Archaeology? Probably the second one, but Kei and Yuri are here to help him survive whatever traps the place might have in store, along with whatever his disgruntled former assistant throws at him (an assault helicopter, as it turns out). We do talk about that, but we also discuss Jason Bourne, the Legends of the Hidden Temple, and the sound

Something strange was in the air when we recorded this episode that starts with a bang, if a bang is an incredibly racist caricature. Sorry, everyone, the 1980s happened in this episode. But once you... get... past.. that... part.... (ugh, feels awful to type) we get into a thrilling heist and an episode that moves at breakneck speed. You want a scene full of exposition? Go somewhere else, it's all killer and no filler in this episode where a high-stakes infiltration into the heart of the 3WA itself

Oh ho ho, what's this? What's THIS? A spooky episode of Dirty Pair, just in time for the spooky season of Hallowe'en. We couldn't have planned it better, and in fact did not plan it at all. But you, dear listener, are the beneficiary of this lack of planning that turned out for the best anyway. Come closer, and listen to the tale of giant space slugs (mollusks), a Shoggoth, Kei's star turn as Captain Dallas, and Yuri's entire... mood. For this entire episode.Also, they flirt with each other in this

A strange energy is in the air during this recording as we get back to the business of talking about Dirty Pair. And what better way for us to knock the rust off of our somewhat atrophied podcasting muscles than to tackle a story of love, loss, and desperation. And a hyper-intelligent Nazi mouse. Really it's mostly about the Nazi mouse. I mean, if you ran into something like that you'd probably talk about it, right? We thought so too, and so we spend some time unpacking the weird security system at

2023/09/20

We near the halfway point of this podcasting venture with a splendid little episode about being overworked, the damage that can do to your relationships, and the importance of vacation. Also, the cops are shit - it wasn't until doing this podcast that I realized how poorly they do their job throughout this series, but it sure has become a recurring theme. Kei and Yuri hate kids, love parties, tolerate their boss-dad Gooley, and at the end of the day, no matter what happens, they have each other
