Oldtaku no Radio #003 – Voltron: Legendary Defender vs. Beast King Golion

Third time’s the charm(er)! Episode No. 003: Ink and Jared
assemble to form … their opinions on 2016’s Voltron:
Legendary Defender. Both hosts watched Voltron: Defender of the
Universe on TV while growing up, so this episode looks at the
property’s most recent reboot through the rose-colored glasses of
nostalgia as tempered by a recent twelve-episode rewatch of the
original Beast King Golion. For analytical kicks and giggles,
Jared watched BKG and VLD episode per episode, while Ink
marathoned BKG then VLD. If you have anything to add to the
discussion, we look forward to your comments below!
