The Cool Kids Club (is dead)

Here it is in a nutshell.

For sometime, I personally have been wanting to get away from the name of this podcast and continue to do something else (like start another one). This idea of mine has been discussed for the past couple of months on and off between me and my co-host on either AIM or after our skype recordings. After having lunch with a member from a different podcast and him and I going over where the show is, it came to my attention that it was time to leave it.

ToonRadio is still down, and we don't think it is coming back up anytime soon. And since were supposed to be "exclusive" to Toon Radio, we will get around to telling the guy who runs it "were out, peace" in due time. It doesn't help that the owner wants us to meet demands on getting a certain number of listeners on an internet radio site a vast majority of people on the net don't even know exist. But since we decided to do all that, we are not going to leave you guys high and dry, we already have something lined up.

Starting in June, we will officially kick off our new podcast: The CyberNauts Cast! It is pretty much going to be about the same content as we have talked about in the past, but we can make more content and have no limit on our time on each episode, so its in total control with us. We have our Robert Woodhead interview lined up as our first official episode, then we got our Gundam Month 2, which in between that we can talk about new shows, tech talk, whatev's. We got the same people as before joining in, and we have Amanda listed as a new member (so it wont be a total sausage fest), or our official "Pink Ranger" so to speak.

So now that I got that info out of the way, Ill post up links when the podcast kicks off to let you guys know about it. So really after that happens, this blog will be about magazine reviews and probably me doing other things to it. So yea, that is the "big kept secret" I hinted about in the last post. So check us out in June. And we might do a farewell episode at the end of this month, boy, wont that be interesting.

Cool Kids Club Podcast Episode 52 - Anime Boston Talkback

Hey gang!! In anime terms, this episode would be considered the final one of the series, so we have quite the doozy of everything coming at you in this episode.

Cool Kids Club Podcast Episode 45 - Bubblegum Crisis Review #2

Welcome once again to this weeks adventure through the Mega Tokyo slums, filled with the corpses of fallen ADP officers and outrider bike gangs as this week we take on the 3rd and 4th Bubblegum Crisis OVA's "Blow Up" and "Revenge Road". This has AD Police helicopters (getting es'ploded), ricing up your super car for revenge on the interstate, no protection paintballing, getting evicted by the corporations, and bad internet connection skype problems. I was ...maybe (if THAT) in this episode about half the time, while the other half was me getting a sledgehammer threatening to trash my internet modem, as I had internet problems this episode. Luckly, I have One Pixel Jump, Amanda and the crew to keep this review going as the "Battle of the Internet" raged on in my apartment, but it wasn't without me hearing some snide remarks from the crew in my absence when I went to edit this episode. But I gotta say, thank you guys!!!! All this and more in this weeks episode, enjoy!

Cool Kids Club Podcast Episode 44 - Bubblegum Crisis Review #1

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUBBLEGUM CRISIS!!!!

Welcome back! Today marks the 25th Anniversary of the classic cyberpunk anime classic, Bubblegum Crisis! We at the podcast decided to dedicate a whole month to Bubblegum Crisis, with stories of fandom, fanfiction, "by ear" stories heard at cons over the years, and for us to pick on the anime a bit (regarding the AD Police and Mackie of course). We start out on how we came to watch and love this beloved OVA series and what made us the fans we are today, then we go into tangents of the anime and just have fun with it, since the OVA series is a lot of fun regardless. We talk about the first 2 OVA's, Tinsel City and Born to Kill. We are joined by Jeff of Anime Graruru, One Pixel Jump and "all around" BGC fangirl herself, Amanda Stair (Duran). Hope you enjoy, and more to come

Kinuko Oomori... the Japanese Pop Rock Goddess... of Rock!!!!

My personal ramblings: (When I came to this podcast, this was really the number one thing I wanted to talk about and discuss more than anything, but I wanted to do it right with the right people involved. Now, this is the perfect time to talk about this anime with whatever experience I have picked up being a podcaster in the past 40 some episodes I have been with the show. My greatest wish on this is to do this OVA justice and pay its dues to the anime community.)

Cool Kids Club Podcast Episode 43 - Battle Royal High School Review

Hey gang! This week in our quest of AnimEigo titles we stumble upon the world of something we just can't comprehend too well in Battle Royal High School (aka, might be "Tekken: The Wonder Years"). This has man in cheetah mask (KING), space police, big teddy bears, boomerang sewer grates, fairies on crack, exploding trees and so much more. This episode is kinda split up into two parts, which part (a) is our review of the anime, we talk about movies like Drive and talk about video games. Part (b) is our pre show DRAMA!!!!, where we decide to resurrect C(hibi)G(oku) from the dead, but it turns out that was more trouble than we bargained for and the Dragonballs just exploded and CG went back to the negaverse or wherever. Long story short, I don't wanna explain anything to you, but CG does anyways. All this and more in this weeks episode!

Cool Kids Club Podcast Episode 42 - Crusher Joe OVA 2 Review, Mailbag

This has corrupt politicians, women trying to take charge, a big bomb, some robots and tanks, 'sabout it.

We even hit up our Mailbag again with the return of SPACE SHAFT SUCKA and other peoples problems. Special Guest Stephen from Jade Phoenix joins us with mic troubles, so sit back and enjoy.
