CosPod: The Cosplay Podcast

No.

At least if you're a cosplayer. If your only goal is to shop a dealer's hall, this might be the event for you.

We went to the first year of Anime Impulse Dallas, affiliated with the Anime Impulse/Impulse Universe brand based out of California. Here's our review!

Happy Halloween and surprise! An early treat for you. After the sillyness of last year's Halloween episode, we decided to do another crafting session, this time with a tabletop haunted house. Did we succeed within our time limit? It doesn't matter - it was still fun!

There's even more craft news to cover! Along with tips on how to avoid bad conventions or scam conventions. And we finally talk about common Cosplay Myths.

Well the episode is about far more than the World Cosplay Summit 2025. We catch up on some of Amber's adhesive/tape testing, go to a convention, skip a convention, and share some important crafting news.

There is so much to share in the crafting and cosplay world! Stick around as we update you about DashCon2, AnimeExpo 2025, Pattern Bankruptcy filings, and more.

Join us as we interview Colleen Cosplay, a disabled cosplayer and YouTuber using their platform to provide tutorials and advocate for accessibility. Thanks again to Colleen Cosplay for coming onto to the show!

We headed out to 2 conventions this month - Otaku Oasis, a brand new all fandom con, and Collin Con where we were featured guests! What did we see? What did you miss? Was there any weirdness that happened?

We've got a new tutorial for you! Have you seen the viral TikTok's of tulle socks for your wig braids? It's an old school technique, and we're going to show you how it's done.

Settle in for a long one. We finally dive into the behind the scenes of cosplay contests and talk about what it takes to be a cosplay manager/director.

Yup. We're talking about Joann again. With the court approval to begin immediate "closing" sales at over 500 locations in the United States, we pulled together a list of where to find your future crafting resources if your local Joann is on the closing list. Visit our profile for the Linktree.
