Trailer reactions aren't usually our bag, but sometimes you just want to spend 90 minutes talking about a 60 second trailer with maybe 30 seconds of new footage.

Join Drew, Emma, Chris, Natalie, and Guillaume as they take a look at the trailer for LUPIN THE IIIRD: The Immortal Bloodline!

On February 9th, 2020, we began our coverage of Lupin III: Part I. Today, we finally close the book on our journey with Lupin's first TV outing.

It's time to end on an explosive high note. It's time to talk about Episode 23: "The Big Golden Showdown!"

It's all coming to a head. The entirety of Tokyo is scrambling to claim ownership of a recently-discovered stash of gold, Zenigata is putting his badge on the line to capture Lupin and the gang once and for all, and Lupin might just put his life on the line to pull the most brazen heist yet.

Join Drew, Emma, Chris, Natalie, and Guillaume as they discuss the episode, look back at Part I as a whole, and collectively rank all twenty-three episodes of the series.

It's been a long road covering this series. We're grateful for every listener who's been along for the ride either from the start or along the way. Here's to more great adventures ahead!

According to our calculations, Drew, Emma, Chris, Natalie, and Guillaume discuss Part 1, Episode 22, "The First-Move-Wins Computer Operation!" in this episode of Sideburns & Cigarettes!

An obnoxious tech bro believes his supercomputer can supplant Lupin and Zenigata's human ingenuity.

Is this a prescient episode? Yes!

Is it also a boring episode? Maybe!

'Tis the season to gather with friends and loved ones and tell those old holiday tales. Y'know, like the one where Fujiko got strung up on a cross by a backwoods cult in Alaska. Which of course means it's time for The Fourth Annual Sideburns & Cigarettes Holiday Special!

In this episode, Austin and Sully of Third Impact Anime join us again to discuss the most unfairly maligned Lupin series, Part 3! Listen as we continue to stretch the definition of a Christmas-themed episode with our review of Episode 8, "Operation Mother Mary Getaway."

Special guest Luci joins Drew, Emma, Chris, and Natalie to discuss Part 1, Episode 21, "Rescue the Shrewish Girl!"

Rie is whisked away from her seemingly quiet life by the mischievous Lupin III. As they hop from vehicle to vehicle in a seemingly endless chase, Rie has to ask some hard questions. Why has Lupin "rescued" her? Is her Uncle Ken exactly who he says he is? Is this maybe the most important episode of Lupin ever released?
