Otaku 5-0 Season 3: Episode 15

pe-nul-ti-mate (adj.) - next to the last.

Aloha everybody!

Yes, we have arrived at that moment yet again. I am proud to present not only the latest episode of our podcast (and the penultimate episode for the 3rd Season) which includes my last Film & Book contributor report, the last (sort of) installment of DVD Grab Bag, and the FIRST installment of a new topic:

Duel To The Death
This topic, which will take place in a single episode, involves the selection of two characters - in this case, Homer Simpson (The Simpsons) & Peter Griffin (Family Guy). Next, each panelist must envision a particular challenge (physical or otherwise) between the combatants, and they must select a winner. The combatant who wins the most challenges shall be declared the winner!

On a more serious note, with Thanksgiving fast approaching we have decided (in an act of fortuitous timing) to pay homage to that nostalgic spirit by including a special edition of "The Top 3", in which we rank the things we are most thankful for. And since we'll be airing the next (and final) episode after we gorge ourselves of nature's plentiful bounty, I would like to extend our best wishes for a Happy (& safe) Thanksgiving to whoever may read this!

Mahalo,
~Totoro (Executive Producer)
