An old idea I've had, but now that the Unplugged and Standard versions will be receiving a split release, I think it's a little more practical. I think it would be neat to have a list (in a post, not the show) of the songs/bgms used in each episode. This would include the name of the song, where it's from, the runtime it's used in the show, and if warranted, a short description.

I hereby volunteer to supply runtime information for the soundtrack and show segments (similar to what I did for ep 15) if SBR or another member of the Gundamn Trio could provide me with an outline.

Finally, in light of the revision to how the episodes will be released, I propose a change in the names of the different versions. Because what is now Unplugged will have priority in production, and what is now Standard will have all the bells and whistles, I suggest Unplugged and Standard be changed to Standard (or in keeping with the mecha theme, Conventional or Uniform) and Premium (or Custom).

Great podcast, guys. I was behind for a few months, but I managed to get caught up. For ideas, maybe you could talk about Full Metal Panic? Plenty of mecha action and comedic moments.

Justified or not, that sounds a little too immature of us to have around.

Okay, I want to spread the word of Gundamn on other forums and blog type sites, namely my deviantart journal.

What links and info should I include when I post the entry?

Man I miss coming to these forums.. stupid work and all. Anyways how about a discussion on what really makes a mech show be considered super robot/real robot, your opinions on each, mixed genres, favorite of each and all. just another whacky idea of mine.

I agree, plus Soul Bro likes Suzaku. So it'll never be like the Crossroad Crew.

I don't know if you guys are still taking listener submitted ideas, but it think a segment about the best subs and/or dubs from Gundam and other mecha series would be interesting. Just a thought.

BTW, love the show, but you must have heard that a bajillion times.

Hey guys, this may have been brought up before but you should delve maybe a whole cast into your top ten Gundams or mobile suits of all time. You did the same thing with the girls of Gundam and kind of the same thing with the Captains of Mecha anime.

This has probably come up before but I still say it may be a cool idea!

I can't seem to find where it was said, but I do recall Chris shooting down that idea at one point.

I know Chris has shot down the idea of doing a pure mecha discussion. I'm not sure about a top ten character discussion though.
Like all good things, my 318 days in Japan have come to an end. Thank you everyone for such an awesome year!

Gundamn! @ MAHQ @ Metrocon

I've listened to Gundamn for a while now and really want to thank you guys for what your doing and to be able to tell you how much I enjoy your program. This would have to be my first time posting so if I pull an Adult Swim screw up please forgive me and please dont go all Bright on me. I noticed that you guys went to Megacon and I really wish I could have gone but you cant always have your gunpla and build it if you get my Keroro Gunso thoughts. But back to my main point which would have to be Gundamn visiting at Anime conventions in Florida. Metrocon is fast approaching and I'm guessing its way to late for an official appearance of the whole gang. But if anything I'd like to hear your thoughts on all the Anime con's you guys would think about attending and how your fans could help you get there.

Great podcasts guys. You guys are really funny and informative :D . As a suggestion, maybe talk about some mecha series that you guys have seen that don't have a whole lot of information on them in english, or have a kind cult fanbase, like Heavy Metal L.Gaim, or SPT Layzer. Also, some of the more obsure Gundam publications and stuff like Hathaway's Flash, Gundam Sentinal, or even Gaia Gear. Keep up the good work guys :D .

Hi, glad you enjoy the show. As much as we'd like to cover obscure things that don't have much English information, that's kind of hard to do since their very obscurity and lack of information makes it difficult for us to reasonably cover them. None of us speak or read Japanese, so we have that same barrier that many other fans do.

Were you guys going to do a segment on Iron Man? I know it's not anime but it kind of fits with the mecha theme of the show.
