Good morning from Greenville, South Carolina. Just popped this on and heard Tim say the fail state for dragon quest 1. I literally experienced that screen for the first time probably 20 mins before listening. I guess I’m a evil dragonlord now!

tim was particularly hilarious in this episode. unclear to me if he has ever himself actually watched Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles, himself, though.

This might be my favorite improv zone yet, haha Really appreciated the longer discussions over the Game Awards and the game equivalent of Jeanne Dielman. Don't know if you would ever be compelled to read through One Piece, but I vastly prefer the manga to the meager number of episodes I watched.

(brandon:) was definitely considering switching to the manga! It's all in the shonen jump app so that'd make things pretty easy! On the other hand, I need a show to watch during lunch :o

I will up my pledge to whatever tier gets us more Brandon anime recommendations!

(brandon:) I've thought about doing a couple little anime episodes myself. I had the idea to do a top 10 anime of the last 10 years, and then a top 10 (or 20) old anime. I don't consider myself a huge anime enthusiast, and in fact I dislike a lot of it. but I probably watch more anime than your average person does, and as long as a show isn't full of sexualized preteens or hornt content in general I will give it a shot, so I have tried a fair few. maybe I'll do it!

I like the format of making Brandon choose his favorite between two different anime, so maybe we’ll do that again.
