OSMcast! & The Carbuncle Chronicle

Why hello there! We're glad you could make it! Because we had the chance to sit down with Denmo Mcstronghuge and chat a little bit in June during Hamacon 9. Denmo is a YouTube/Twitter/Twitch sensation that  makes with the Final Fantasy XIV funnies and jokes. You may even find him scampering across Eorzea as his buddy Mr Face. Sometimes he even plays other video games! You should also make sure to listen all the way to the end. You'll be glad you did!

Protip: We were/are trying to play around with a new travel mic and the settings somehow got jumbled. So you make need to raise the volume on it here and there.

Same show, new podcast, and a slightly different way to title them! So let's get to the whole point here. We have an episode of the OSMcast! right here, for you, about Aggretsuko! That wonderful rocking red panda pal from our friends at Sanrio. The show is on Netflix, made by the studio Fanworks, and directed by Rarecho. We also talk about other things! Which you can find out about by listening to the episode! Or check the Time Cues, but that's not nearly as much fun!

OSMnotes!

Hope you like Netflix! Chances are, even if you don't, you have Netflix anyway. So go hit up some Aggretsuko, why don'tcha! Oh, here is that link to the Guardian article we talked about during the show! But first, Time Cues:

Wait wait wait what 2 updates in a row is this 2017 or what geez SO ANYROAD yes the OSMcast is BACK yet again for a classic late night con report! This time, we stay up waaaaay too late on the Saturday night of AWA to talk about said con. Since Basil and Anna were the only ones from Team OSM around, we stacked the room full of amazing guests! Said guests include, Jared from Oldtaku no Radio, Drew from Akihabara Renditions, as well as Bonus Doug and Jeff! ... From, well, they were in the room so good for them! Being in a room!

Protip: This was recorded in a hotel room at 3AM+ in the morning, so the the audio is not always the best. That's mostly due to the whole hotel room thing, though!

Are we on Netflix? Of course not, as we are a podcast! Why would we be on Netflix? But you know what IS on Netflix? Studio Trigger's Little Witch Academia! So let's talk about Little Witch Academia. Sound good? Great!

So why not tackle a podcast in 2017 with the anime everyone has been talking about?? I dunno, I guess we could have talking about other things, but Yuri!!! on Ice has been on constant repeat for a few members of Team OSM so it seemed like the one to start with. So, here we are! With a podcast all about the anime Yuri!!! on Ice, by the studio MAPPA, directed by Sayo Yamamoto, and written by Mitsurō Kubo.

Oh hi! The OSMcast (and friends!) went to the latest Final Fanatsy XIV Fan Festival in Las Vegas, to check out all the sweet surprises they had in store! And boy did they! A new expansion, and lots of teases as to what's coming up next. But we did as much of the Festival as we could, so we could bring it all back to you here. In audio form, no less!

It's a podcast from the OSMcast in 2016! About... 2015! How exciting! So, we thought we were back, only we weren't. Whoops! But we are here, with an episode. That we recorded all the way back in January! It's the first half of the 2015 OSMawards, that now is in fact, the entirety.

Huh. So... It's 2016, huh? Man, how time flies!

Especially when you are playing Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward, the amazing expansion to that MMO we here at the OSMcast has been horribly addicted to! In honor of our addiction, please have a podcast all about it.

Until then, have some cues.

So speaking of Momocon, this was the first year where they really blew up their video gaming to something truly huge. Something special. they called it the MGX, or Momocon Gaming Experience. Not only was there tons of tabletop gaming to be had, or console gaming, or even an arcade, as they had all of these things. But what Momocon also had, was an indies space for video games. And along with our pals from Chainsaw Buffet, we played almost all of them.

These are those stories. As recorded late at night during some night at Momocon.

Next time, something fresh off the microphone! We are kicking a few ideas around. If you have any ideas of topics of things to cover, feel free to hit up Basil on Twitter. Or Kevin! Or hey, even the OSMcast account itself. We are not picky.

Long time, no podcast? Well, let's fix that! We're going to start with an OSMinterview we did with Greg Weisman during this year's Momocon along with the Chainsaw Buffet podcast.

Greg Weisman was one of the co-creators of Disney animated series Gargoyles, and also worked on Young Justice, as well as Star Wars Rebels. We talk to him about all those things, but we also chatted about his books Rain of the Ghosts, as well as it's sequel book Spirits of Ash and Foam.
