Show Notes:

Joseph and Benjamin are joined by Marc and Yumiko, an American-Japanese couple who have lived in Japan for over 30 years and just so happen to also be the brother's parents as well. Together, they discuss the oft-forgotten masterpiece "Laputa: Castle in the Sky," how Sheeta and Pazu compliment each other perfectly, the massive footprint the movie left behind in Japanese culture and cinema, why Colonel Muska is as famous a villain as Darth Vader, some of Dola's wackiest lines, etc., before diving deeper into philosophical questions of why humans are always seeking a "Laputa," the dual nature of love and hate that resides in everyone, and if there will ever come a time where there is no war.
