It's here! Coming in at a whopping 3 hours and 12 minutes - Episode 4.2: Inescapable Moebius Loop is now available for exclusive early access by all Patrons!

Please note a few things about this episode: Due to the umm... extraordinary length of this episode, we haven't had time to do our usual final pre-release check. It's possible that a few things may have slipped through but we'll continue checking the episode on Saturday and there may be a slightly revised version going up later this weekend. 

We hope you enjoy it!

Show Notes:

This week, we recap and discuss Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack (機動戦士ガンダム 逆襲のシャア), while trying to avoid spoiling the discussions coming up in future episodes. Before we dig in to the movie itself, Thom presents research on how and why Char's Counterattack got made - background information on the production, tie-in novels, and other versions of the story. We also discuss how we'll be pronouncing a number of the names in the film.

The Other Counterattacks

富野 由悠季 (Tomino Yoshiyuki), 機動戦士ガンダム 逆襲のシャア―ベルトーチカ・チルドレン (Beltorchika's Children). Kadokawa Sneaker Bunko (1988).

Music

Mobile Suit Breakdown is written, recorded, and produced within Lenapehoking, the ancestral and unceded homeland of the Lenape, or Delaware, people. Before European settlers forced them to move west, the Lenape lived in New York City, New Jersey, and portions of New York State, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Connecticut. Lenapehoking is still the homeland of the Lenape diaspora, which includes communities living in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario.

You can learn more about Lenapehoking, the Lenape people, and ongoing efforts to honor the relationship between the land and indigenous peoples by visiting the websites of the Delaware Tribe and the Manhattan-based Lenape Center. Listeners in the Americas and Oceania can learn more about the indigenous people of your area at https://native-land.ca/. We would like to thank The Lenape Center for guiding us in creating this living land acknowledgment.

The only complaint I have about Mobile Suit Breakdown is that most episodes are not 3+ hours long!
