| The Gay Who Turned Kaiju / Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End | 06 sept. 2023 | 00:30:20 | |
The Chicago White Sox surprisingly fired Kenny Williams and Rick Hahn, one of which had been in charge of baseball operations for like 20 years, and then disappointingly hired their number three, Chris Getz, to replace them. All that's on Getz's resume is a bottom five farm system and concerning hires due to myriad character issues. All that to say I am now a lifelong Mariners fan. This episode, we're talking about Kazuki Minamoto's The Gay Who Turned Kaiju published by Yen Press as our completed series.

Chelsea have begun their fire sale. Kante is out of contract, and out of Chelsea. Onto the increasingly problematic Saudi Premier League. Havertz is headed to score like 20 goals for Arsenal. And Mount, sadly, is headed to Manchester United, by all indications. At least Chelsea still have Enzo Fernandez.

The White Sox have been winning lately (good), which they didn't do at the beginning of the season (bad). And now they're playing a lot of catch up and have to keep winning (questionable). It'll be a sad trade deadline when Tim Anderson, Lucas Giolito, and Liam Hendriks are all traded. This episode, we're talking about Moto Hagio's Lil' Leo published by Denpa for our older series.

Chelsea should score more goals and allow, well, ideally score a reasonable amount of goals and reasonably allow at or around the same amount of goals, but really allow fewer goals. I dunno, it's been a weird team to follow so far. This episode, special guest Grant joins me to talk about Masashi Kishimoto's Naruto published by Viz. There are some audio issues in this one; we weren't actually talking over each other, but the way I edited it accidentally caused this to happen. I dunno where, but the latter half is especially weird. It's still largely listenable. Apologies for the error. Naruto credits (from volume one):
