Giant Robot FM

Hello Giant Robot FM listeners! In this space between main feed coverage on The Big O II and Robot Jox, we bring you the long-promised Science Lessons episode to cap off our Gunbuster coverage! Maddy and Space Queen Emily chat with pmc and Stephen about all eight science lesson episodes (yes, including the two that were left off the recent Discotek release for reasons we assume are beyond Discotek's control). We also discuss three shorts often included as extras on Gunbuster releases!

Greetings Giant Robot FM listeners! How does a listener survive on the podcast that Simulator has become? Welcome to the start of what we hope will be a long-running series covering all things Front Mission. This recording is two and a half hours about the origins of the first game in the series, information about some of the creatives who worked on it (particularly Yoko Shimomura), and details on some of the remakes and other material related to the first game.

We will be following this episode up with one dedicated to the Front Mission remake launching on November 30, 2022 - both production information specific to that release as well as our thoughts about Front Mission itself.

Please enjoy this interview that pmc did with Adelaide Jenkins, the game director of Phantom Brigade, a mech PC game that had its v1.0 launch on Steam at the end of this past February. Adelaide had a lot of excellent things to say about her own experience with mechs as well as how Phantom Brigade is influenced and inspired by other mech media.

Furthermore, we are also including a bonus addendum that expands on a few things about the Armored Core PlayStation "trilogy." These were all originally recorded before the announcement of Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon.

Part of the reason we're releasing these episodes on the main feed is to promote pmcTRILOY's speedrun of Armored Core: Project Phantasma being featured in the upcoming AGDQ 2023.

Mobile Suit Gundam: Cucuruz Doan's Island has now come and gone in theaters in the US and so it is now time for us here at Giant Robot FM to finish what we started with our coverage of The Origin. Megan D (aka brainchild129) joins us once more to talk over the production history of the movie and, of course, Yoshikazu Yasuhiko's involvement as director.

This history episode can be considered as part of a set with Giant Robot FM episodes 12-14, which cover the early career of Yoshikazu Yaushiko, the Origin manga, and the Origin OVA.

We've reached the end of Planet With in only 12 episodes but it really feels like it's been 5 years! With Stephen out sick, pmc and Caitlin break down the big conclusion to Planet With, highlighting the important thematic beats of forgiveness, belonging, and breaking cycles of violence. It's a stellar conclusion for a stellar show!

Hello Giant Robot FM listeners! We were supposed to be bringing you the finale coverage for Planet With but scheduling issues intervened. In place of that, we're sharing what was supposed to be a patron-exclusive episode - our discussion of the first episode of Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury with guest Ethan Halker.

On our main feed, after finishing Planet With, we'll be moving onto coverage of the theatrical release of Cucuruz Doan's Island. If you're interested in more episodes on The Witch from Mercury, please take a look at our patreon: https://www.patreon.com/giantrobotfm

Hello Giant Robot FM listeners! This week it's just pmc and Stephen as we close on the end of the first half of Planet With - a show in which it already feels like so much has happened in such a short amount of time. Topics covered include parenting, sleeping students, and, of course, what is really inside the vials that Takashi gave the Paladins.
