Otaku 5-0 Season 4: Episode 2

Aloha everybody!

Once again, I sincerely apologize for my lateness in uploading this episode, but work obligations have kept me quite busy. But however, I am very pleased to present to you the next episode of our podcast!

But first, some backstory....

As you may recall, I announced during the previous episode that this would be my last season as a permanent member of the panel. I also said that I would be unable to join my fellow staffers for the next episode's recording. However, I decided that, in an effort to prepare for my eventual departure, the other Otaku 5-0 staffers will produce the next episode (i.e. this episode) without my assistance.

Well, that time has come and gone, and you will now hear the results. May you enjoy the fruit of their labors.

Also included as a special download is the 2nd of 3 preview episodes of Otaku 5-0, recorded before the airing of our first episode!

Mahalo,
~Totoro (Executive Producer)

It's Almost Time

Hello to all our listeners! Jam here with a special pre-emptive post to remind you that we'll be back THIS WEEK (pending some horrific computer accident or invasion of some kind). Each of us has had a fun, if somewhat exhausting, holiday break, and we're refreshed and ready to entertain.

As a treat for everyone out there (and somewhat embarassingly late post by me), here is our "latest" installment of our Otaku 5-0 video segments: Cooking with Jupiter and Jam.



This video made the rounds on my Facebook (which you can find quite easily if you're sneaky enough) and stars myself, Jupiter, Mr. A on camera duties and Peeps. We didn't even plan on filming anything that day so the whole video is shot from the hip, on my Flip (hey, that rhymes). Don't mind the holiday theme at the end, it was a feel good holiday video that I finished editing about 3 days before Christmas. If you ever wanted to put a face to the voices, here they are for you to enjoy.

In our downtime we had some fun. Had a few get togethers (GTs if you will), made a few new friends and definitely got some gears turning to give you, the listener, some things to look forward to. All in due time, of course. :)

That's it from me, tune in later this week for our season premiere!
