Carcast/Commute Cast Ep. 3 (18m09s)

Low-fi like usual, recorded with the loud AC fan and close to the stereo.

Topics: prepping for Fanime, hopefully soon reviews, some music criticism (Green Day’s and Danger Mouse’s new albums), and a bit of California politics.

Carcast #002 (14m53s)

Talked about Doujin Work purchase, Media Blasters’ pricing at Best Buy, return of the Nico baseball tournament, Funimation’s Evan Flournoy, etc.

Initial episode of the Stream of Consciousness Commute Home Carcast (working title) - 9m5s.

Main topic: anime OP/ED sequences where characters are seen “singing” and primitive plans for spring impression posts.

(I’ll try to keep the recorder from hitting the steering wheel for future ‘casts.)

Leo Laporte, Alex Lindsay and Andy Ihnatko discuss — and make light of — Microsoft’s new mobile effort on MacBreak Weekly 127. I love the “business seminar” at the end of the clip.

(Disclosure: I am a PC person, yet I listen to MBW.)
