Do You Remember Robotech?

Hey we've been gone a while, and we're not coming back to talk about Robotech (for the foreseeable future). But me and Manny did not get a podcast divorce, instead we are back with a new podcast where we care about the subject latter a lot more. Please check out Enterprising Gentlemen on podcast feeds near you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hi! We're back! These episodes of these show have absolutely nothing happening so we do the podcast thing and derail as soon as possible. Hopefully you missed our delightful podcast voices more than our insightful Robotech opinions, because this episode has way more of the former than the latter! I really had a lot of fun doing this again with Manny though and I hope it comes through and makes it...

CW: Light discussion of the show's usage of Intellectual Disabilities Look, you've seen it a billion times. A decade after the popular original, some wholly different team comes in and makes a gritty sequel or reboot that doesn't quite reach the highs of the original. Maybe it's in conversation with it in a way that still requires the original as a meaningful foundation, or maybe it just doesn't g...

Hi I really needed to do something productive today so I finally got around to releasing this sorry to everyone it took so long! Anyway there are three of us and we talk about the finale of this show. Was the show good? Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh well no but when I listened to the opening bit I laughed at my own joke so at least there is clearly some productive work being done here w...

Welcome back! It's another Org-Time for another Org-Minute. Just don't ask about our Gasm's!!! Haha well anyway this time we talk about the middle third of Orguss, as it moves away from episodic stories and onto true Dunbine-esque isekai storytelling. Our heroes are tasked with a terrible choice that bellows ominously and vaguely in the distance, and also there's a lot of romantic tension between...

Hi it's been a while! Manny is busy with some work stuff so he is gone forever and we're not friends any more :(. Don't worry though everyone I have special new friend Mel from Ultra Queue (a podcast about watching all of Ultraman in production order) to fill in with friendship and podcasting until Manny finishes his various tasks. We are watching the middle Duper Dimension Show: Orguss, over a pe...

Hi! This episode we get one of the hosts of Reply All, one of my favorite podcasts of all time on! Alex Goldman is here and we discuss children's cartoons, spider crabs, and of course, small insular differences between some very boring episodes of television! Alex also reveals what I'm pretty sure still is the exclusive announcement for the release date of his new podcast!!! which is really funny...

Hi! It's Season 2! A little weird since we started the Masters last time technically but we're really truly in it now! More importantly we bring iconic Abnormal Mapping host Jackson on as a guest! Experience me going through the pain of being seen as Jackson participates in our GGP Pokemon knockoff with Jojo Stands!! We also talk about how cool Jeanne (and later, Yamcha) is, Manny gets lightly own...

Hi! Last Super Dimension Fortress Macross episode! It's been a long road, huh? Just last week we were talking about those funny little talking vending machines, and then we watched the rest of the show. Anyway here we handle the rest of the animated SDFM stuff with a bunch of music videos and then get into the meat of the episode, the first brand new exclusive original Robotech episo- Huh? Oh. Nev...

It's the first episode without a direct comparison! It's also the first episode without an indirect comparison because there's nothing really going on with Codename Robotech other than me making fun of Carl Macek's bad commentary. So we're mostly just talking about the movie! Love it (Manny) or Hate it (Me) we can all agree that Hothead Henry is a better narrator the the normal guy. I hope you all...

We did it Reddit! We watched 36 episodes of anime and 36 episodes of Americanimation and even podcasted about it. We're joined by the only person we know who's watched all of Robotech, Sanga, for some brand new viewpoints! And together we explore the complicated and messy finale of both shows, and the Venn diagram of messiness between them. This is one of the longer ones we've had in a while, and...

We're so close to the baton pass! Except we're passing the baton to ourselves instead of to anyone else. Maybe that's what they should do, just get one really fast runner so they don't even need to bother about the baton. If you win the baton running championship with that advice please shout me out. Anyway this episode Manny lays out all the Blue Wind actors as we re-litigate past Diddy Kong argu...

Macross continues to use its precious little time left to engage us with the worst behavior of two horrible dudes. Robotech, on the other hand, uh, just mostly does that too. Luckily you, the audience, have two cool dudes in me and Manny to get upset about it for you! It might be one of the worst times in the show but it's at least an okay time in this podcast! Still, only 2 episodes left until wh...

Hey this is the best dang episode we've ever done. We are joined by the one and only General Ironicus (who let us call him by his first name!?!?!) and it's so cool, y'all. Come for the bad melodrama, stay for the story of the Tea Party Pies.

The time is late, but also the time is nigh! For Macrossrobotech! The energy for this energy is actually surprisingly electric I think it's a lot of fun, maybe we should try recording way too late at night every single time? In this episode, I go to bat for Rick Hunter, Manny goes to bat against any audience member that would choose Robotech Minmei's singing voice, and I'm we're (mostly me) are re...

We have the middest stand of all time (beyond Part 3's many many mid stands) and a pretty mid episode where not a lot happens too! In this episode: I am forced to write about stupid Robotech lore in my summary (WHAT IS PROTOCULTURE!???), we argue over whether "Trad City" sounds cool or not, and behold the copification of Rickaru. Also why aren't Blue Wind all in beautiful relationships??? Fun fact...

We're 30! The podcast is ancient, dinosaurs crawling on their last breath of life. In contrast, this episode highlights babies, who are notoriously not old. Unless you're the Boss Baby. Don't ask that little fella about Hillary Clinton, I tell you what. He will say some truly sexist and awful things about Hillary Clinton who you know of course politically I don't agree with either but no need to b...

The Mushroom Men, I mean, Robotech Masters are here! Sort of! They're far away, doing some stuff, getting some irons in the fire. Mushrooms in the fire, maybe. To be honest Robotech has sort of blown it's big load last time so even though we get an exclusive scene it's still mostly back to regular differences as per usual. That being said we do have some good discussions of anti-Zentradi Karens an...

The energy is the highest it's ever been. Macross has a two year timeskip and somewhere along the way Robotech has become fully unhinged. The strange ghost of Fokker is here, the racism dials are turned up to 11, 15 monologues are inserted over silence, the narrator is spitting (who let him cook!???) and the inserted lore threatens to tear the show asunder. Lets. Fucking. Goooooo! The great promis...

It's the first of many finales! This time, the original finale that would have happened if Macross didn't get incredibly popular by episode 3. In another world, would me and Manny have still done a podcast that ended here? Probably not we'd be doing like movies vaguely relating to star trek or something who knows. Anyway, fun episode! I do a small crime near the middle but I'm sure you will all fo...

Heads up: Manny's audio got messed up (which effected our backup too) so he's gonna sound a bit weird even after some editing. That editing also involved some audio truncating so this episode is also shorter on a whole than usual as a result. I sound perfect as usual, though, if a bit more concise, so you can have all the fun in the world listening to us talk about people talking in meetings. This...

Hi! Sometimes, life moves fast. You're sitting there, reading your shownotes from your favorite podcast, when all of a sudden Manny comes out with a knife! Oh no! You beat him up and he proposes to you. Yay! This is what happened to me, but instead of marriage proposal it was a podcast proposal. And instead of winning games it was me losing KOF to Manny 40 times. Anyway, this episode is kind of lo...

Hi! It's the shortest episode yet! But you know what, in this episode Max plays some dang VIDEO *claps* GAMES. Who here likes video games? We don't have a lot to talk about episode-wise OR difference wise, but I do tell Manny a Bible story, there's a funny little editing goof, and we somehow dedicate a good portion of this episode to Gundam Seed! I'm sorry we did that! Stand Picture: https://i.img...

Hey, it's episode 23! This episode wants us to "Drop Out" of this podcast, not because it's bad or anything, just because there are like no differences lmao. I mean uh sorry listen to the episode please to see if I'm lying here, maybe there are some really interesting differences! There's some added monologues!? Anyway this episode I decided not to do my super long editing process so sorry if I mi...

We're in the back stretch of Macrosstech and we're stretching a bit ourselves! At least this episode gives us some astonishingly bad media reads straight from the mouth of Robotech itself. Robotech is sort of like a third chair that no one likes, sort of like that one Mcelroy brother. Anyway uh we talk about a truly filthy stand and we really carry that gross energy for a lot of it, so you have th...
