Bonus – Interview with Helen McCarthy, Dave III, and Rob Fenelon

Here’s our interview from AWA 2007 with noted anime scholar Helen McCarthy, author of The Anime Encyclopedia, which is now in its second edition. Also appearing is anime fandom gatekeeper/Flexible Metal Hose Guy Dave III from Corn Pone Flicks fame, and Rob Fenelon, whom we interviewed back in Show # 64. Listen as we all get totally schooled!

Excised from this recording was the conversation about Jenny dolls, which for those of you who didn’t know were invented by Leiji Matsumoto’s wife. The only reason it was removed was because the recording was stopped mid-discussion.

Show 67 next time! If you can’t wait however many weeks to hear Gerald talk about Detonator Orgun on our show, you can listen to his guest appearance on Destroy All Podcasts DX and hear him talk about Detonator Orgun right now!

Bonus – Anime Weekend Atlanta 2007 Con Report

Show 62 was running a bit long and we were already two months late on releasing this anyway, so we’ll just upload the convention report for AWA 2007 as its own separate thing since we probably won’t get much done during the Thanksgiving weekend. You need something to listen to while waiting in line/traffic for Black Friday, right?

We’ll release the rest of Show 62…later! But now, what may be the new THE SPECIAL PICTURE:

SEPARATED AT BIRTH DOT DOT DOT QUESTION MARK

If this had been sufficiently planned out, this episode would have also included our con report done at the convention with some dudes with a website, but that’ll have to wait for another day. More important AWA photos will be posted then.
