My "live" first reaction to the new footage of Kamen Rider Gaim! And while waiting for that to air, I watched Super Hero Taisen (with commercial interruptions) and pondered the colors of good and evil, the true nature of insanity, and the timeless beauty that dwells within everything.

Also: Shôtarô and Gentarô feel each other up.

• Rider Break! is back in less than a month as I woke up for a 6 AM "live" recording of the Kamen Rider Gaim trailer, preceded by Super Hero Taisen, a movie I'm probably much kinder on than most.

• Spoilers that I keep forgetting to mention until it's too late, including Super Hero Taisen (admittedly, it would be hard not to spoil it) its sequel (nothing too major, but I do bring it up) numerous other Rider movies (many of which are my favorites!) and Ryuki (spoiler: somebody dies in Ryuki.)

• Complete incoherence.

• Music used includes:

"Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary" (excerpt) Yup, I'm stretching that far for a joke.

"Let's Go!! Rider Kick 2006" by Hiroshi Fujioka (excerpt) Get it on amazon.co.jp

• For the third episode in a row, I get sick, though only by the end. It's the rain, man.

• Speaking of the rain, you can hear it in the background for most of the podcast. The sound levels on this episode were also a bit wacky since I had turned the whole table so I could face the TV, and the result is that I think the microphone was closer to me than usual. I need to invest in a good stand next!

• I mention somewhere in there about the Q & A episode. That's coming up next, and I'll probably get to it today or tomorrow depending on how the vocal chords feel. Thanks for waiting!

• Mentioned in this episode (to explain why I keep repeating myself so much):
