When Will It End? episodes:

April 26, 2023 The Miyazakiverse: Part 11 with Drew
Drew returns one last time to confront Miyazaki's (current) final movie: The Wind Rises. The usual sexism and anti-pacifism that has been flourishing near the end of Miyazaki's career is back in full-force, this time coupled with an ugly, plotless slog about a guy who loves planes. So expect many brief escapist discussions of 70s Pinku, Neon Genesis Evangelion, The Thing prequel, and Herzog's pitiful bowl of leaves.

April 05, 2023 The Miyazakiverse: Part 10 with Drew
Drew is back to talk the terrifying sea chicken that is Ponyo. With comparisons to Cronenberg, Otomo, and Tsukamoto always in the background, Charles and Drew attempt to make sense this horror by ranking the three awful versions of Ponyo as well as deciding which dad sucks more.

March 29, 2023 The Miyazakiverse: Part 9 with Nick
Nick finally gets some alone time in The Miyazakiverse, as we get to maybe Hayoa's most braindead movie yet. Howl's Moving Castle is an out of control nightmare of everything wrong with the filmmaker, but the staircase scene is pretty good.

March 15, 2023 The Miyazakiverse: Part 8 with Jared
Finally arriving at the origin of the series, this special episode welcomes Charles's friend from high school Jared. Thinking this was a one-off episode on a movie from their ancient past, this actually inspired Charles to bring together a bunch of friends to create The Miyazakiverse. This also might also go down as one of the most controversial episodes of WWIE as Spirited Away, one of the highest rated films of all time, gets trash-talked and dunked on for over an hour.

March 08, 2023 The Miyazakiverse: Part 7 with Nick and Coop
Nick returns to The Miyazakiverse, this time with pal Coop in the room to chat Princess Mononoke. They have many questions, few answers, and a mad respect for the pig who yells about beauty.

March 01, 2023 The Miyazakiverse: Part 6 with Drew
Drew calls in from jolly old England to join The Miyzakiverse and do his best impression of Josh while talking about the flying red hog. Miyazaki's obsession with womanizing tragic boys is in full force in this dive into Porco Rosso.

February 22, 2023 The Cubeverse: Part 4
We're about halfway through The Miyazakiverse, and thought it was a nice time to get Josh back in here to revisit a previous series. With the 2021 Japanese remake of Cube out, we venture back into The Cubeverse, but spend a considerable amount of time talking about the original The Taking of Pelham One Two Three. Oh well.

February 15, 2023 The Miyazakiverse: Part 5 with Mike 2
Another guy named Mike hops aboard The Miyazakiverse to watch and chat Kiki's Delivery Service and try to understand why witches prefer to send their children out to start UPS franchises rather than train them how to be witches at home.

February 08, 2023 The Miyazakiverse: Part 4 with Nick and Junie
Daughter/Father duo Junie and Nick join The Miyazakiverse for a kid's and parent's look into perhaps the most beloved of Miyazaki's creations: My Neighbor Totoro. This is a cute episode, even when Junie goes to bed so Charles can grapple with the concept of "dads".

February 01, 2023 The Miyazakiverse: Part 3 with Mike
Five minutes into the episode, one of the mics drops out so there is a good background noise for 95% of the episode. But that's ok because Mike and Charles spend most of those minutes talking about one of the pirate that looks like a fish in Castle in the Sky.
