Kami-Con Season 6: Heartless in Wonderland, where the hearts roam free and wild and uh, less?

In our first con report of 2014, we decided to head down to Birmingham, AL to check out Kami-Con‘s sixth year. As it turns out, we had a great time at the con! Sadly, not such a great time in the city. However, you’ll be able to hear all about the good, the bad, and the awesome contained in audio form therein!

We also brought back our “REALLY real real” segments for this conquestable podcast. What are those, you may ask? The “REALLY real real” segments are when we go forth and talk to the con goers  themselves on how they enjoyed  the con and their own person highlights. Sometimes they get their own episode, but this time we decided  to included them  during the breaks.

And we mentioned it during the podcast, but once again we want to congratulate Ray and Chelsea on their getting married and wish them nothing but the best. We also wish Kami-Con the best  but the  con itself did not get married. That would have been weird.

But you know what aren’t weird? Time Cues!

OK FOLKS! Strap in because we are in it for the long haul as the OSMcast! tackles all of anime and manga we could for our second half of the 2013 OSMawards. Over two hours of podcast insanity, all for you.

We talk about titans, part timers, tanuki, crowds, giant ro-bros, pants (or rather lack of pants), baseball, hunters, xs, more hunters, economics, bicycles, farming, infernos, vikings, flowers, gears, crocodiles with glasses on tier heads, just all SORTS of stuff!

We ALSO answer Gerald of Anime World Order’s question to Hisui of Ninja Cons- Reverse Thieves just because we CAN. Well, Kevin can. Only Kevin had the fortitude to withstand the might of such a question.

Lo and Behold we have returned. It is now the year of 2014. But 2013 had a lot of cool stuff in it, so we have brought back the OSMawards!

In the first part of our two episode saga of days past, we tackle the staple that is Video Gaming. From 3DS, to PS3, to 3DS, to 360, to Wii U, to 3DS, to PS4, to 3DS, we cover all the game that tickled our 2013 fancies. We then venture into the realm of not-so Japanese TV Shows, then wrap up with Movies.

We also talk about Space Dandy, fancy watches that tell you things, magical boards of water and ink, and more!

So much more, including possibly the end of Doug’s never working freezer?! STAY TUNED.

 OK no I get it this just an OH LOOK THE OSMCAST JUST JUMPED THE SHARK joke just waiting to happen but I DON’T CARE so THERE. It’s only a couple of days, perhaps even less of 2013, so we decided to send of the year with an extra supplemental episode of the OSMcast, covering the extra DLC case for Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies, the case Turnabout Reclaimed. Our uh, I guess glorious leader Basil is joined once again by [Alain aka Hisui](https://twitter.com/hisuiRT) from [The Reverse Thieves blog](http://reversethieves.com/) as well as [The Speakeasy podcast](http://reversethieves.com/the-speakeasy-podcast/), along with the always excellent Ruby!. So come listen on as we talk about killer whales lawyers, and most importantly, penguins. Because penguins are the best.

SCREW YOUR SHOW NOTES! HAVE A GREAT NEW YEAR, INSTEAD! This, we COMMAND.

It’s beginning to to look a lot like awesome. Everywhere you go~

It’s the most wonderful time of the year and so we decided to podcast about a most wonderful movie. Since it is the season of holidays, we brought out one of our favorites: Satoshi Kon’s and studio Madhouse’s film, Tokyo Godfathers. You know, that lovable scamp of a movie all about three homeless people and a baby? Yeah, that movie. It’s great!

So grab some eggnog, curl up against the fire, and listen to an audio podcast all about a movie you should totally go and watch immediately.

Buy Tokyo Godfathers!

Merry Christmas, Happy Late Hanukkah, Groovy Solstice (Does groovy work? We have no idea ANYWAY), Happy New Year and a Merry Whateverelse Holiday You’d Like Us to Mention from us here at the OSMcast! Now have some yuletide TIME CUES~

If only France was actually this cool!

Podcasting to be the very best, like no one ever was, the latest OSMcast! is all Nintendo’s and Game Freak’s latest duo of RPGs, Pokémon X. Oh, and also Y. For you see, as it turns out, Basil, Doug, and Kevin all ended up getting Pokémon X. So we brought in our buddy Barry to represent the Y.

But not the Ys. That would be different game entirely. Still a pretty awesome one, though.

HOWEVER, this episode is all about the awesomeness that is Pokémon X (and also Y). And whatever else we talked about!

You can buy Pokémon X and Y pretty much anywhere video games are sold! 3DSes, too. You can also listen to only the most premium Pokémon raps via Shofu on YouTube.

Object- Oh you know what they are doing already!

Tonight, on the OSMcast we plumb the depths and crack open the case of one Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies. A lawyer-esque video game for your 3DS Nintendo Portable Entertainment System.

And by we, I mean Basil aka uh… Basil aka Ed Chavez fan #1 from said OSMcast as well as one Alain aka Hisui aka Saber fan #1 from the The Reverse Thieves blog as well as The Speakeasy podcast.

But you should listen on as we share the dual destinies as guys who likes video games about being lawyers that can tackle even the greatest of yokai crazes!

Later folks, later. Right now I (Basil) am about to be drug into some Dr. Who THING and who knows how this will turn out! I assume lots of flashy lights on sticks that people will SWEAR to me that they are screwdrivers. Even though they don’t have neither orange  juice OR vodka so what use are they?!

So with Hamacon’s Minicon going on this past Saturday (Which went very well thank you for asking!), we did not have a chance to record an OSMcast proper. However, we didn’t want to leave you hanging and as it just so happens… Basil was on the latest episode of the Chainsaw Buffet talking about GMX, Tennessee’s Geek Media Expo.

Listen in on talks of Peggle! Awesome shojo-esque Kickstarters! How Basil reads books! AND SO MUCH MORE!

Yeah, I got nuthin. But chainsaws.

Why hello there! Would you like a podcast? Because we have one! The  story of this podcast is thus: Basil was super busy and did not have to plan or assemble a normal OSMcast, and so enlisted the mightiest warriors from throughout the land.

And ended up with John and Dylan from the Chainsaw Buffet. And as we had more Buffet than OSM this time, the podcast runs the gambit of wild and crazy things such as  TV shows, anime, table top gaming, and more. It’s a cornucopia of a scattershot of topics that will be sure  to please one and all.

Or at least Hisui.

LOOK YOU ARE LUCKY TO GET A PODCAST, ALRIGHT?! We’ll try to get some  time cues in here, but no promises.
