The Other Side - Episode 18: Stay Free Fandom

Author: Anime Outsiders May 1, 2016 Duration: 1:23:09
There are some fandoms to which Cody and Alex ascribe; the fighting game fandom. Cody’s boner for King of Fighters is matched only by Alex’s boner for Guilty Gear. Unfortunately, just like any fandom, their’s is one wrought with dillholes and assclowns. Never ones to shy away from casting a spotlight of accountability, Cody and Alex put their own kin on the chopping block, taking the fighting game fandom to task. David Sirlin inspires Alex to steal the show, Skullgirls is properly eviscerated...

Ever find yourself deep in a conversation about a show's ending or a game's mechanics, wishing you had a couple of friends right there to hash it out with? That's the feeling you get with Anime Outsiders. This isn't a formal review show or a straight news report. Instead, it's a weekly hangout where the hosts dive into the stuff they're actually watching, playing, and thinking about. You'll hear genuine reactions to the latest anime episodes, but the discussion naturally sprawls into the films that inspire them, the video games that share their DNA, and the broader hobbies that fuel this kind of fandom. The Anime Outsiders podcast captures those meandering, passionate talks that happen after the credits roll, full of inside jokes, spirited debates, and the occasional tangent about a killer soundtrack or a baffling plot twist. It's for anyone who enjoys these worlds not as isolated silos, but as connected pieces of a larger creative landscape. Tune in for the kind of authentic, unscripted chatter that makes you feel like you're just sitting on the couch with the crew, figuring it all out together.
