Media Club Plus
Thanks everyone for listening to all of Media Club Plus's inaugural season! And a special thank you to everyone who wrote in questions. I'm happy to say it's not truly over yet, as we have at least TWO if not three more season 1 bonus episodes to do, including the extremely late next part of our Dragon Ball Z coverage. We also all owe it to Sylvi to watch Phantom Rouge. This is not even to mention eventually returning in some form for some HxH manga episodes. No promises, but... I think we all would like to do at least SOMETHING. I really hope everyone will stick around for our M Night season...

Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. We start off this new season immediately in the soup of a horrible election, thanks to the intentionally poor planning of Isaac Netero. After spending some time with the new dysfunctinoal family of Ging, Pariston and the other zodiaks, we meet up with the old dysfunctional family of assassins, the Zoldycks of Kukuroo Mountain where we learn that Killua has a secret cursed sister. This week we cover episodes 137-139, titled Debate x Among x Zodiaks, Request x and x Wish, and...

Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. We've finally finished the mammoth Chimera Ant arc. It was long, ambitious, and fascinating. On the whole, I think it's some of the best TV ever made. After dozens and dozens of episodes of tension, Togashi and Madhouse pull out all the emotional stops, closing as many narrative loops as possible before introducing the next season: the election of a new Hunter Association chairman. This week we cover episodes 134-136, titled The Word x Is x You, This Person x And x This...

First halfish of this episode uses our audio backup so it's a bit lower quality than usual. But not a big deal. Sorry! Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. Bad vibes all around! Does Gon Freecss become the least shounen protagonist of all time? Or the most? And how long can Pouf and Youpi hope to keep Meruem away from Komugi, or even from merely her name? Or the word Gungi? And what's with all this blood? Hey was something up with that bomb? Thanks to Austin for joining us on a doozey of an episode he asked to be on...

Happy to have Ali Acampora back to complete her Talking About Kite trilogy! Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. Well it wouldn't be an episode of the Chimera Ant arc if it wasn't full of the weirdest, wildest shit yet. And that's certainly true for this one. The quick rundown: The king is alive, Pouf and Youpi become mothers by feeding the king their own flesh to revive him (deeply sexual), everyone resolves to back Gon up against Pitou (potentially to their own death), Gon decides he's going to leave with...

Hey everyone, sorry this one's a week late, but we'll be back on our regular schedule next week. By the way, yesterday Friends at the Table launched a new podcast, called Side Story, hosted by Austin with a rotating cast of FatT members. It's about videogames! The first episode has Jack and Janine, and they're also doing a patron-exclusive LP of Outward. Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the Chimera Ant King that he was just an old man. This week we cover...
