What happens when your pal decides to attend his very first anime convention? You throw him on a panel of course, and then make him podcast about it!

Tori and Austin are back again to talk about everything ANIMAZEMENT 2026, this time joined by frequent friend of the show, Drew H. from Sideburns & Ci******es. We talk panels, pals, poor financial decision making, and tons more.

We also have some extra special bonus mini-interviews with two English Voice Actor Guests, Reagan Murdock (Aki in Chainsaw Man, Olruggio in Witch Hat Atelier) and Kamen Casey (Mikage in Blue Lock). Enjoy!

Available now, wherever you get your podcasts. Links in bio~

Very cool itasha cars at Big Charlotte Anime.

The GitS car had tons of signatures on it, including one from the late, great William Frederick Knight, the voice of Chief Aramaki.

Out now! Tori and Austin chat about Ibashocon 2026, a convention that wrapped up several months ago, but with us (err, Austin) being so busy preparing panels for Animazement, and recording a bunch of episodes that are STILL not out yet, this one took a while to release. We chat about the con, the great artists’ alley, really fun panels (both our own and others’), the delightful idolfest, the cosplay fashion show, the Gachiakuta cast panel, and the beauty of a convention built on a “community first” attitude.

At my BABYMETAL panel on Thursday night, presented me with these incredible doodles of the band and let me take one home. The rest she gave out to attendees. A major highlight of the convention right off the bat. 😭 Thank you so much! 🤘🦊
