Dude, You Remember Macross?

Macross Plus has finally hit North American Home Video, but it seems that Dylan hasn't nabbed it just yet... This leads Coop to call in the burning wallet strike force—Celia, Maddy, and Giant Robot FM's Stephen Hero—to make a "tight 90" sale pitch. Are they successful or is the information high just too much for Dylan? Ultimate Edition's sheer bang for your buck, the difficulties of working with unofficial translations as an anime academic, time-based psychic damage, and this one guy who laughed at children crying for Optimus Prime come up over the course of the conversation.

After many rehearsals and copious weeks in anime, Coop and Dylan slide in before the holidays to say, "Yes, we DO remember Macross." They finally hit the finish line in this jumbo-sized finale featuring episodes 22 through 26 of Macross Delta. While catching up, Coop is suddenly activated to gush about 1000xRESIST and Dylan learns that "Vita" means "Life". Walküre's legacy, Delta's shortcomings with serious topics, toxic yaoi, and mental bowel movements also come up over the course of the conversation. Thank you for listening all these years!

Originally Recorded in May 2024 Coop and Dylan return to catch up on some (now out-of-date) Macross streaming news before digging into episodes 19 through 21 of Macross Delta. The Sonic Symphony stop in Ohio, Birdy the Mighty: Decode, Frontier plot points, and the many faces of Roid come up over the course of the conversation. 25:30 - Episode Discussion Begins For more of us, check out: Dylan - https://twitter.com/Tha_DiLA https://bsky.app/profile/thadila.bsky.social Coop - https://riderstrike.carrd.co/ https://bsky.app/profile/riderstrike.bsky.social Music Used: Hametsu no Junjou (Walküre - Macross Delta OST)

With Macross on its way to Disney+, Coop (@RiderStrike) and Dylan (@Tha_DiLA) finally return to the mic for a look at Macross Delta episodes 16 through 18. It's high time we made that last sprint for the finish line. The further joys of sports anime, Akira Toriyama's mechanical designs, that one guy's dickulture, and the benefits of a little time away come up over the course of the conversation. 22:00 - Episode Discussion Begins For more of us, check out: https://twitter.com/dudeyouremember https://cohost.org/DudeYouRemember Dylan - https://twitter.com/Tha_DiLA https://bsky.app/profile/thadila.bsky.social Coop - https://riderstrike.carrd.co/ Music Used: Hametsu no Junjou (Walküre - Macross Delta OST)
