Listen now
Description
We actually got a few people in the audience, it didn’t last long though. As always we started with impressions of the con so far. First with the new layout again, then the actual panels and events we saw Then we get to the news 00:53:50 - Matt Alt talked about the potential and pitfalls of AI in the fine art of translation, so we did too 01:19:20 - Norm McEvoy takes a break from his rounds to make his annual visit to the podcast and explains a few of the changes that happened to Anime North this year, and talk about its DNA 01:35:06 - Norm gives his thoughts on Akira Toriyama as the tributes continue at AN, and then goes on his usual pro wrestling fandom for Terry Funk, and remembers some AN staff who passed away Then some headlines in brief 01:45:15 - Wanna watch Miku Expo on TV? Pretty sure those who’ve gone to the concert in person weren’t interested 01:48:05 - Toru Furuya, say it ain’t so!? Another in a list of voice actors and bad behaviour 01:51:59 - Best wishes to Rachael Lillis as her Breast Cancer battle reaches a difficult point This Week’s Drinking Game: Take a shot of sake when someone in the audience adds to the conversation P.S.
