Listen "The Fliptastic Four... Out of Five? (What's Next for the Akira Slide Boys)"

Episode Synopsis

This week I'm talking about the new Naked Gun and Fantastic Four films, Jallah espouses the pros of Legos and Prince, and we try to figure out what the next moves will be for this show. Dan Da Dan season two, Horror films, and a 2000s-focused episode are some of the ideas bandied about. We also answer a question from Waylon, who wants to know what films and series to check out after getting into Hajime No Ippo because of this podcast. This episode's a really fun ride, so please join us for it, won't you?
