Time to immerse yourself in all things geeky and nerdy. Jarred and Turtle dive headfirst into debates and discussions from all of your favorite fandoms. On this week’s episode the duo discuss: The Foil, a literary tool that has graced the pages of amazing works throughout time; a character that pushes the Hero and the story through challenge and a directly conflicting personality, good or bad Foils always make a story better. Also Lancers, a modern trope in stories such as movies, comics, anime and more; the Hero's number 2 or their greatest rival, they help push the Hero to excel but also keep them grounded and steady. We explore that all Lancers are Foils but not all Foils are Lancers. From Dr. Watson to Scorpius, Killua to Vegeta; this week is all about those side characters that are so different from the main protagonist that it makes the story so much better for having them!

Time to immerse yourself in all things geeky and nerdy. Jarred and Turtle dive headfirst into debates and discussions from all of your favorite fandoms. On this week’s episode the duo discuss: Our 6 Favorite Magic Systems (from Anime and Literature). One of the most iconic parts of a great work of literature or a butt kicking anime is its unique way of dealing with the magic of its universe, though sometimes the magic has a different name: sometimes it's aura or chi, sometimes it's just science or a genetic mutation. No matter what you call it the plot device that is used to make the main characters or villains be somewhat super is what we fanboy over. From Nen to Magic, from Alchemy to Quirks, if it creates a boom or can make you fly we geek out over it. So sit right back and get hot and nerdy on this week’s episode of Talk Shonen!
