OSMcast! & The Carbuncle Chronicle

Truly, only on the master system that is the PS3 can one truly enjoy the Spirit of the Drift™. In this fast and FURIOUS episode of the OSMcast_!_ we decided to take the best kart racer around for a spin.  And in case you haven’t read the title yet, that game is United Front Games’ ModNation Racers. OSMnotes You can buy ModNation Racers everywhere video games are sold! And also PS3s, in case you ne...

It’s a veritable two for one interview bonanza here on the OSMcast as we interview not one, but _two _awesome voice actors at once while we were hanging out at this year’s MTAC. Travis is probbaly best known for his work as Roy Mustang from Fullmetal Alchemist: (Nazi-verse as well as the superior Brotherhood persuasion) and Guile from Street Fighter IV. Not be out done, Laura played the role of Lu...

Gekiga: The Other White Meat, if Meat was Manga, and not Meat After going two months, almost to the day, of not having a podcast with an actual date in the title, we bring it back old school with a podcast about something really old school. We speak of a most super-hyper-mega-awesome manga A Drifting Life, by Yoshihiro Tatsumi: A Drifting Life. It’s his auto-biography, but done in manga form. Sinc...

Hulu has lots of things on it, that you can watch. Like House of Five Leaves. You should watch that. It's pretty great. What’s this?! A new podcast? INDEED IT IS! And lo and behold, it’s another roundtable episode! We had some really good feedback the last time we did it, so we’ve decided to keep doing them whenever we think up a topic we can round about at a table. This time, we talk about Online...

Carl Gustav Horn in all his glory, representing the Big D. H. When we started the OSM cast_!_, there were a few people we knew we just _had _to interview. This is one of them!

I have nothing witty to say here. Normally on the OSMcast!, we tend to try and talk about the things that we like. Things that are awesome. Sometimes awesomely good, sometimes awesomely bad. Occasionally however, we do decided to get our hate on. This is that kind of show. HOWEVER, what we DO bring along with this (2 HOUR) cornucopia of bile and anger is an awesome guest: Gerald of Anime World Ord...

The name says it all, really. With summer comes summer movies. Comic book movies. We tend to like both these things so we have a podcast for people who like comic book movies. In particular this go-around, Kick -Ass! PROMO: Anime82 ! Host, mad-man, genius Regan Strongblood had a dream. He would talk about anime, and then get a bunch of other podcasters to talk about anime on his same show. The res...

Spike Spencer What’s this?! A bonus episode out of nowhere?! Say it ain’t so! You see, at MTAC Odyssey we teamed yup with the wonderful gentlemen of the Chainsaw Buffet podcast to interview Spike Spencer. Spike, has done many a role in anime and video games, but is most likely best known for doing the voice of Shinji from Neon Genesis Evangelion. And since the Chainsaw Buffet guys have already rel...

“It is said that as many days as there are in the whole journey, so many are the otaku and podcasters that stand along the road, each microphone and netbook at the interval of a day’s journey; and these are stayed neither by snow nor rain nor heat nor darkness nor asstons of even more rain from accomplishing their appointed course with all speed.” – Podcaster’s Creed of the Persian Empire (trans....

The realliest!

The gold color scheme means it's special. That’s right! AWO isn’t the only podcast doing a “decade in review” podcast months after everyone else did one! We’ve got one too! Although ours is a little different. Basil, Eric, Kevin, and Rail worked up our each individual Top 10s and then we talk about them in a monolithic almost two hours ironcaged deathmatch of DEATH . While wearing audio-tuxedos. B...

It makes RPG j...

This photo of Jerry Jewell is evidence that all photos taken in Texas must look like they come from old Westerns. It's true! Trudging back forth from the cold, cold North to the slightly less cold, cold South, the OSMcast brings you this interview from the always awesome voice actor Jerry Jewel l!

Chances are, if you are looking up from the ground at this man... You're already toast. After talking about Black Lion and Brutal Legend we felt, “Why stop here?” So we decided to watched what on it’s DVD box cover proclaims as “The most violent, action packed animated film of all time!” And that is the 1986 anime film adaptation of Fist of the North Star by Tetsuo Hara and Buronson. OSMnotes Savv...

You want to talk Brutal? I had to edit this in Paint. Makes it all jaggy and shit. While a day late and a dollar short, the OSMcast_!_ returns with some _slightly _less than hot off the presses podcasting action! Since the latest season of anime hitting Japan pretty much blows, we’ve discovered that we’ve ended up playing a lot more video games than usual!  So we took the whole Moment of OSM/Whatc...

Black Lion A podcast that primarily deals with anime (and video games) talks about a anime? Shocking! This time, we take on Go Nagai’s _BLACK LION! _ OSMnotes Black Lion is cheap as hell online. Just check the Amazon listing . Really, unless you hate violence and gore, why aren’t you buying this right now? Next week’s episode is up in the air, as schedules are being worked out and what not. Howeve...

The Ozone Commandos also keep things real Once again we bring the real scoop on what really goes down at anime cons. This time we went to the fifteenth Anime Weekend Atlanta. We talked to lots of people! And yet, only 24 minutes came out of it. So next time I guess we need to talk to _more _people.
