Popcorn Pulse 227: Evil Vibes

Oh fuck. It’s recording day and we haven’t even read the assignment. Time to grab a slice of toast and then run to the APC we use to ferry ourselves to school. And by school we mean our jobs. By slice of toast, we mean an energy drink with a caffeine pill dissolved in it. By late we mean we’re on our way to Human Resources to tell them to suck a fat one. By fat one we mean that they’re invited to the farewell party for Sheryll because we don’t think anyone remembers the folks in HR. They do good work.

Manga Pulse 520: Juvenile Ending

Unlike a certain movie character, you aren’t required to say our show name thrice to summon us. For that we will appear after only two. And even then it will only be because you subscribed to our feed or at least checked the website. So nothing like the striped man played by Michael Keaton. Though we both have had a Zagnut. Onto the manga.

Popcorn Pulse 226: Fuckin Zorro

Have you heard tale of the masked man? No, not Batman. This guy rides a horse. No, not the Lone Ranger. Or the Phantom. Ok look, we’re talking about Zorro today, alright? Yes, the Spanish sword fighting man who dons black and names himself the Spanish word for fox. Which may make him the worlds first furry.

Manga Pulse 519: Dr Freeze

What year is it, you might ask as you look over the listings for local movies. “The Crow?” You say, beleaguered and weary. The dust of sleep making you sound like Kermit the Frog while recovering from laryngitis. You should seek out those stalwart reviewers of manga to steady your nerves. Perhaps a good discussion of a pair of manga by a pair of hosts will settle your time vertigo.

Popcorn Pulse 225: Fire Tess

We like to do theme episodes. Sometimes we choose them because of an actor’s passing. Sometimes a renewal of interest in a genre. This time we seem to have a theme but we couldn’t tell you why. Maybe there was a grip who worked on both of them. It’s a sort of mystery that’s outside of our pay grade.

Manga Pulse 518: Mach Kill

It’s lunch time again. Grab your tray and get in line. You’d better have an idea of what you want. The menu is at the start of the line and you better have read it. Take too long and we send you to the back. If you don’t see it, we don’t have it. Looking for a shonen manga and it’s not under the glass? Then it’s not available today. Don’t like it, come back later. As for what we have today we’re only going to say this once.

Popcorn Pulse 224: Detroit Hills

Everyone, may I have your attention please? Listen up, I need everybody to stop what you’re doing. I’m Axel Foley, Federal Anime Inspector, everyone stop drawing, inking. Except for you, you finish up them tiddies. That is an anime girl with the boom, if you know what I’m saying. She’d better not be in high school or we’re going to have a serious problem.

Manga Pulse 517: Blue vs Blew

Is it really that time again? Oh crap, we have to pick a manga. Or two. We could probably go through the requests. But that would take some sort of effort. Everyone knows we don’t ply effort to things like selection. That’s reserved for silly things like selecting the toppings for carryout or gently handling golf clubs. We did find two, in spite of the effort it took. We hope you enjoy the discussion they’re sure to prompt.

Popcorn Pulse 223:Sex Train

All aboard! Maniacal laughter echoing into the distance. What do you mean, don’t say that part? It’s written in the script you gave me. I don’t know what kind of amateur hour circus you have going here. You’re clearly hiring me to do a knock off introduction of Crazy Train which will probably get you copyright struck. I don’t care enough to fight you on it, I’m just paid flat rate to read what’s on the page. I’ll let you sort this out while I talk about movies.
