Nerdy Talk Episode 5: The Nuclear Option

Written By Samantha Ferreira

Episode 5 saw the return of Anthony, after a round of medical leave. The podcast began with business as usual, but quickly spiraled into something truly worth listening to. Things got crazy and topics meandered a bit, but there was no end to the truly fascinating conversation this evening. The biggest challenge was deciding exactly which material to keep! Unedited, the podcast would have been a 4-hour monster. So, while it was sad to see some bits go, I’m confident that we grabbed the best of the best.

Topics ranged from comparisons between Media Blasters and North Korea, to Pokemon and Cartoon Network before we finally closed the night off with an extended discussion of FUNimation’s release of Psycho-Pass.
