Say goodbye to Antoine, cause he may not ever come back. We have a special guest set up for next week, so you'll want to be here for this episode and hear Antoine's goodbyes. Also, hip-hop is in the news this week with some crazy sh!t. 

Anime Frontier is only ONE WEEK AWAY!

We're back and this week are bringing back an old segment! Antoine read some stuff believe it or not and he also listened to some new music. That's right, he stepped outside his comfort zone and listened to new music!

Anime Frontier is almost here! Be there December 6-8 in Fort Worth!

Thank you to our beloved listeners. We appreciate you. Nerds stand together. 

Welcome back as we dive into some more niche anime and talk about bringing back an old segment! When We Were Young Fest has been announced! The guys talk about beating the s*** out of anime main characters?

This week we remembered that we are not just an anime podcast. We are also a music podcast, so when we heard that Warped Tour was back, we were stoked... Then we found out the truth about it. Come listen to us rant about it along with doing some blind rankings of some of the best Warped bands of the past. Don't worry though, we do also spend quite a bit of time talking anime too!

We're back with a long episode for y'all! Lance has truly leaned into spooky month with a ton of old school scary movies. Antoine is back to re-watching his favorite series'. We also have some very good news about the upcoming Anime Frontier on December 6-8. Listen to find out!

We will be posting video clips regularly on instagram and TikTok. Full video episodes will also be uploaded to YouTube for your viewing pleasure.

It's October so you know what that means... Time for some horror manga, anime, books, music and movies! It's been a couple weeks since we got together so enjoy this episode as we start to dive into horror month!

Lance breaks some bad news to Antoine, which ruins his week. Then puts him through the wringer with some quizzes after talking about the new One Piece live action announcements. We also talk about the Hunter x Hunter manga and what is coming up next for it.

Back to regularly scheduled broadcasting, which apparently includes Lance messing things up! That's alright though, cause we still managed to put together a great episode for you all!

We made it! The time has finally arrived! Our boy Don Juan has joined us once again for an episode. And this one is a special one! The one you've all been waiting for... the One Piece episode. Come listen to all of our rants and raves. Our likes and dislikes. It's time, nerds, to find the one piece!

ONE MORE EPISODE TO GO, NERDS! Antoine has been pushing through on One Piece and he has clearly learned a lot. Lance read an ENTIRE manga series in 48 hours. Then the boys prep for what next weeks 100th episode entails.

We're in the home stretch here. Antoine is pushing in One Piece but he is struggling. He is building up some words for Juan for the 100th, but he spares very little of those words today. Lance can apparently read but is he missing out on Borate?

817 Day showcase at Fort Brewing at 6pm on Saturday! Be there or be square!

We're back on our bullsh*t with dark movies, books and anime. We also answer the age old question: "Should hipsters be allowed to rank anime?" Also LOTR, Warhammer and WoW are for dweebs and that's exactly what we are... All that and more this week on Dragonb... Emo Otaku!

We're back after a week off and ready to bring you some content! In a very weird twist, Lance and Antoine start getting more into horror movies to become more manly men (or something like that)

Episode 100 is coming up very soon! We hope you're ready for it!

The boys get back together after a week and a half with plenty to talk about. Antoine visits Washington and pushes farther into One Piece, Lance goes to some shows and considers going back to WoW. Come get a taste.

We had to see each other twice in a week to make this happen for y'all, so you better enjoy!

Our 100th Episode is fast approaching! Get ready for a packed episode in a few weeks!

We recorded this episode on Independence Day so we could ask one simple question... WHAT THE F**K IS A KILOMETER?! STARS AND STRIPES BABY! BILMURI AND CARTOONS! 

This was a hell of an episode to record so we are sure you will enjoy listening to it as well!

If you Blink(182), you might just miss it! Antoine and Lance argue about the not so subtleties of Konosuba and the future of One Piece. Apparently Lance can also read more than one book at once, which seems like a weird thing to do.

Contest for free 100th episode merch is coming, so don't miss a single episode to find out what the rules are!

Antoine is back and he has apparently kicked his gambling habit... Lance has also decided he needed a new fix. Have the roles been reversed?!

100th episode special, merch and party are all coming up soon. We might start a giveaway for free merch so make sure to tune in every week for a chance to win!

Metal. Evacuations. Tornadoes. Beatbox. Circle Pits. What do all these things have in common? Simple answer: SoWhat Music Festival. Lance and Tim recount their harrowing journey that was the 2 day festival. 

Only 10 episodes away from the big 100! We will be having a special episode with multiple guests, 100th episode merch and a party! Make sure to tune in as we get closer to that episode so you can get sneak peaks on all of those things and maybe a special code for free merch!

We're back! So many topics covered in this brand new episode. You will definitely want to tune into this one!

Antoine has returned from his long journey to once again grace us with his presence. From ranking anime from each studio to recapping a concert to the Kendrick vs. Drake beef. We cover it all on this new episode. So buckle in buttercup, cause it's gonna be a bumpy ride.

Antoine joins us from his vacation to who knows where on this new episode. He tells plenty of stories and fills us in on how far he has gotten in One Piece. And boy does he have a lot to say, as per usual.

Listen to the new episode and tell your friends so that we can grow and now die! Unless you lied and don't love us like you said you did!

Antoine gives us his real opinion of One Piece, however we learn that he has no idea how to change settings on Crunchyroll. So do we really care what he thinks? I think you might want to hear what he has to say. Funimation is dead and everyone is sad... or did you notice?

We're back after a week off with a loaded and special episode! We do a live listen to the new Ancira single coming out in May! Come listen in and get a sneak peek at what the boys are cooking! Also coming in a couple weeks, we will be interviewing members from the band! So come catch part one! 

Is Chained Soldier is more than a h*ntai? Is Asobi Asobase the greatest comedy ever? Can Lance actually read? Who really knows. 

Lance may have finally changed his mind on Hunter X Hunter?! He also watched some more smut (aka borderline h*ntai) and FILLS us in on his takeaways. We talk some supposed 10/10 anime and ones that we believe are 10/10 in all categories. We wrap up with our favorite bands that we've seen live... Lady Gaga?

Antoine is back and he's taking no prisoners. The Crunchyroll awards have happened and the winners are not what was expected. Why is this wizard anime causing such a rift between the guys? Are we human or are we dancer?

While the cat is away, the Lance will play... Or something like that. Anyways, Tim is here to bring some actual fun and joy to the podcast. So sit back, relax, take off your shirts and jackets... and then buckle in for one hell of a ride!

We're back! After a wild week, we have returned with some new content for you all. A ton of big news and also some wild new shows watched. Lance bit the bullet and watched a show with a ton of fan service... maybe a bit too much. Come hear us dive into that and stick around for our plan for our very first tier list!

What does Love on the Spectrum, Chained Soldier and Avatar The Last Airbender all have in common? Come find out. We also dive into Wild West anime and listen to a couple songs that sound exactly the same but were released almost a decade apart.

SoWhat Fest lineup has been announced! Let's go over the highs and lows of that and what to expect. Lance also finished a book so we should celebrate! Lastly we discuss upcoming albums and which ones we are most excited about. Including some huge comeback albums on the horizon!

We are back to your regularly scheduled programming with some hot takes (as expected)... And it's time to talk about one of the most controversial and polarizing topics in anime: FAN SERVICE! You won't want to miss this rant.
