Few anime have as storied of a history as Lupin III. With hundreds of episodes, a long running manga and dozens of movies and specials, it would be seemingly impossible to sum up it all up in just four episodes? Well Jack, Malcolm, and guest Tyler Cronsilver set out to do just that! It's a fun romp into the world of heists, cowardly princes, and gadgets! Plus enjoy an extended rant about James Bond (who also "appears" in the show!)

We're guestless this episode! And it turns out, besides being our resident anime expert, Jack is also without a doubt one of the biggest fans of the video game series, Mass Effect. So the idea of doing an episode on the anime tie-in "Mass Effect: Paragon Lost" would sound pretty appealing right? Well...maybe not. Is this the worst thing the podcast has covered so far? Or the best thing Freddie Prinze Jr has ever acted in? Find out on this week's episode!
