Joe joins us this week for a Samurai New Year!! We talk about skiing, kotatsu, Japanese pronoun choice, translation NDAs, and the most dread Yokai: THE AMABIE. Then we watched a pretty goshdarn weird episode. It promises a "Mrs. Starkey Acts!!" episode, and instead we get... Jennifer's worst date ever. How bad does the date go? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out. Let's just say that Sam Collins is a supervillain in his own right.

SSSP GAIDEN PRESENTS: ENTER THE WARRIOR'S GATE!! (With Alex Berube)
The Superhuman Samurai Syber Pod
Hello everyone! It's been a hot minute. We have a lot of new content in the pipeline, with a new "regular" episode coming out within the next few days. However, this is no regular episode... It's a GAIDEN for ENTER THE WARRIOR'S GATE!! That is to say, the French-Chinese attempt at making a international crossover hit. It made... no money, helping to bankrupt Luc Besson's Europacorp.
info_outlineWe have Marquita on the pod, who has been working as a English teacher in Seoul for the past 5 years! We talk to her about bad students, the burgeoning virus (this was recorded 3 weeks ago lol) and about Korean dating profiles!
The theme song is an Italodisco track by Scotch called "Disco Band." It was a favorite in high school, because of its nonsensical use of coughing as the backtrack.
