Podcast Episode #78:
Bane of all anime, the inevitable way of keeping you from watching reruns.. FILLER!!

Also drop by for SHAFT live(right here on the blog!), 7PM Eastern! We’ll be taking some filler thoughts from the live chat room as well.

This week Gene is cooking up some big blog content with a fresh new Behind the Otaku Curtain and a review of Girls High.
Chris is bringing home a new Turning Japanese.
And your usual favorites AMV Alert will round us out!

We want to have a show next week. We really, really, really do. However, Chris is going to be out of town. So we have some ideas on how to make it happen…
1) Gene and Angelo do a normal show without the mixer or awesome mics we usually use.
2) We prerecord a show earlier in the week devoid of any news thats going on(which probably there will be none). We would more then likely throw in release spotlight and two or three recommendation reviews.
3) We do a show with stuff sent in by the ever popular SHAFT community. Emails, voicemails, segments and/or anything you would like to send in to the program. It’d be a show that revolves around our awesome listeners!
So, let me know what you think. I think 3 would be amazingly cool. 2 would be good too if you don’t mind a rambling review show. 1 is a cop out… we’d do it but probably not as well without the cool equipment.
If I get enough material from everyone, 3 would be the choice we go with.
