Black Lagoon Review

All good things must come to an end, and so we close out Paint It Black month with a DOUBLE request; yes, when we mentioned we were doing Paint It Black month, we got a request from Runixzan and Paranormal Rob, and Yerocha also mentioned being surprised we hadn't included it in the initial list. With that much hype, and the fact that it's about modern day pirates, this has to be good, right? Right?

Edit: In the video, I call requester Runixzan a woman.  He is not.  I'm not sure why I thought what I thought; I am so sorry for that.

Black Jack Review

Paint It Black Month moves ahead full steam after last week's debacle!

He's baaaaack. That's right, Yerocha is guest starring again to review the anime Black Jack, based on the classic manga by Osamu Tezuka. Was this series in good health or on life support? Listen to find out!

Note: in the podcast, I say that we have a commercial break in the middle that you can go to to avoid too many spoilers.  If you can't see the break (a black dot in the progress bar), the spoilers end at time stamp 30:10.

Paint It Black Addendum

So, it came to my attention, looking at a calendar, that there's an extra week of Paint It Black month that I failed to take into account. 

See, here's the deal.  We haven't updated on Sundays for a long time.  We officially do, but it's a legal fiction, more or less.  We update on Fridays or Saturdays these days, since we figure we want people to have the time to listen over the weekend.  Sunday is sort of the absolute last minute we post anything, if schedules went horribly awry, and we haven't had anything come out later than Saturday since March. 

Yet, for scheduling, I still say it's Sunday, to give us that wiggle room.  But that means that in terms of our REAL schedule, there's one more Friday and Saturday in June that has to be filled, and it might as well be for the theme month. 

too long, didn't read version: I goofed on basic calendar reading skills.  

So, Paint It Black Month will now end on Black Lagoon, requested by Runixzan. (http://www.youtube.com/user/Runixzan)

Black Scorpion Review

Note: this originally had a guest spot from our friend Chaltab, but due to technical issues, his audio was lost. Fortunately, he didn't say much. 
This time, Bobcat and Burkion, with guest star Legend Maker, look at the Sci-Fi (before they were SyFy) channel superhero show, Black Scorpion.
