October 31, 2019 Oldtaku no Radio #037 – Higurashi When they Cry
There are several reasons why Higurashi When They Cry consistently finds itself on so many must-watch series when October rolls around, but that doesn’t mean that it’s a show for everyone. Listen in as Jared and Ink are joined by AGP’s @QX20XX and Reverse Thieves’ Alain Mendez to dig into the origin and makeup of this iconic series about a series of gruesome murders and mysterious disappearances in the small village of Hinamizawa. If you’ve yet to see the series, there’s a spoiler-free section, and if you have seen the series, there’s an indulgent, spoilerific section that follows. Enjoy!
Stream Higurashi no Naku Koro ni S1, S2 (Kai), and Rei on HIDIVE.

October 01, 2019 Oldtaku no Radio #036 – Oldtaku no Oddities
If you don’t remember MTV back in the ’90s, when it was 98% music and 1% Kurt Loder, then you definitely don’t remember the other 1% – the ballsy, experimental animated shorts of Liquid Television and the longer, more serial (but not any less weird) shorts of the Oddities animation programming block. Join Jared and Ink as they reflect upon their teenage cartoon obsessions by talking about Liquid Television’s Aeon Flux as well as The Head and The Maxx from MTV’s Oddities after a fresh rewatch of all three! And to mark our three-year anniversary as a podcasting duo, Jared and Ink reminisce about the past year as well as the two before that. So grateful to have you(r ears). Now press play already!
