Our episode by episode podcast about the 2002 anime series Gundam SEED (and then Destiny (with a break for Build Divers)), and then Gundam 00 and Build Fighters, and now Reconguista in G!
We've already reached the halfway point of War in the Pocket! Also, we're all sick and grumpy. Will that cause Zach to come around on Al? Is Geremy making a bunch of belligerent political jokes a result of the election, the holidays, or being sick? And who is the Gundam home run king?

War in the Pocket Episode 2: We Gotta Razz that Kid
It's time for episode 2 of War in the Pocket! Does Alfred get any better? Who is Gundam's new shitty teen, and why is his team hazing him like he's a college kid? Does Chris do anything in this show? And what dumb nickname would you give a Gundam in the RX-Series? Listen and find out.
It's episode one of our OVA arc, starting with Mobile Suit Gundam: War in the Pocket. How 80s is this anime from 1989, the last year of the 80s? Who's the main character? And how good is animation that costs $100 an episode?
After a brief hiatus, we're back to talk about our final thoughts on Witch From Mercury. Was it good? How could the ending have been better? What effect will WFM have on the future of Gundam? And which characters do we realize we've been mixing of Durundal-and-Djibril style midway through the episode? Listen to find out!
It’s our 2024 Thanksgiving Thanktacular, where we thank all of our patrons for the year! What else do we do? We had plans we announced on our patreon, but Geremy decided to change them last second, in the middle of the episode, so you’ll have to listen and see. Hear? Listen and hear.

Witch From Mercury Episode 19: Young Mister President...
Armed with their new rap personas, Miorine and Guel head to Earth to see if they can suppress the riots, as part of Miorine's campaign for president. It's too bad she can't just debate Shaddiq on the issues, that would certainly help the members of the group decide who they wanted to make president, and would not just devolve into two teenagers shouting insults at each other. Politics have really advanced in the future!
