Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Today we have a very special episode for you: it's Tiago's birthday when we recorded this, and you'll hear about it no less than seven times during the runtime (possibly more)! Oh, and we also watched Murder on the Orient Express, the 1974 adaptation of the iconic Agatha Christie novel of the same name. We forget actor's names, discuss the ethics of the case, marvel at how cool trains are, and once again reiterate our support for women's wrongs. This episode also features an after-action report from Anime Boston 2025, recalling the Ace Attorney cosplays spotted at the convention, some Alien (1979) trivia, and trip planning advice for the Boston Pride Parade. Be there or be square!

I got to have an amazing chat with Spectra in regards to not only his time at PAX East & Anime Boston this past weekend, but also his cosplay journey overall. Starting around the same time as I am, Spectra goes into detail about his first convention alongside his friend group and the Deadpool outfit he eventually wore as his first cosplay not long after. He then goes into detail about the armor work that he's done in addition to the many panels over the years at conventions like PAX, Anime Boston and many more. The episode starts out with a heartfelt/lengthy chat about content creation efforts and I gotta say, his words were extremely inspiring and I'm even more excited to where things take him later this year. Detailing hopeful visits to Dragon*Con, HolMat and even FanExpo Boston are just some of the conventions he's hoping to visit this year. He also goes into his Twitch streaming efforts and desire to do things that make him happy/feel fulfilled as he puts it! Spectra also talks about how the cosplay/content creation seen has changed with its treatment of POC individuals. Such a fun time and I hope you all have a blast tuning in!

After the ApocalypseA Pandemic Survival StorySeason two, Episode three “The Hungry River”Janet glared through the sleet, up the hill, searching for the Humvees that she expected to appear over the crest at any moment.   “Persistent deadbeats…” She swore under her breath as the chain saw chattered in her hands. She knew if she could slow them down, even for a minute, it might give the bus enough time to escape....Outro S2 E3https://shows.acast.com/after-the-apocalypse Hello and welcome back survivors. Here we are, episode 3 of season two and it feels like we're hitting our stride. This was a fun episode to construct. I love the visual of the river devouring the bridge.  Just a great picture in my mind's eye. The other thing that happened here, not to give you too much of the sausage-making, was a roller coaster ride. It's a series of tension builds and releases, where we are just letting you off the hook and we slap you again with a new shock wave.  I would be interested in your feedback on how all that worked for you. We are moving right along in season 2 and keeping up our production schedule. Which is great because I've been super-busy in my real job.  Last weekend was the Wasteland Weekend.  We'll have to ask Mike Darling how it all turned out this year with the actual apocalypse still going on in the US. It sounded like they had a full schedule out there in the desert and that attendance was going to be good. As a reminder that is a desert festival every year with an apocalypse theme. Which sounds scary and dangerous – but probably is just a lot of fun.  Imagine you're out for a hike in the desert and you come across a gang of folks dressed like Mad Max characters? Would you be scared? You probably shouldn't be. In my experience the folks that do this type of character playing aren't the dangerous types, they're the arty types. I‘ll tell you a story. A few years back I had to drive into Boston to pick up my daughter who was attending Anime Boston, one of the big regional conventions. I pull into the Marriott and the place is full of kids in bizarre costumes. Monsters, aliens, etc. you get it. And I asked the bellman who was standing there if this was a hard week for the hotel with all these crazy, costumed kids hanging about? And, he said, “No, they're just nice kids. No trouble at all. Last week we had the police convention, and they tore the place up.” That was a lesson for me. You can't judge a book by it's cover so to speak. Speaking of books and covers, I'm still stalled out on the season one manuscript. I've been super busy. But, I'll keep working on it. As long as I'm still creating new content the offering just keeps getting stronger. Sampled a couple new Apocalypse type media pieces this last week that I'll share. I watched Alita Battle Angel 2019 American cyberpunk action film based on Japanese manga artist Yukito Kishiro's 1990s series Battle Angel Alita. It is loosely a cyber-punk themed future Earth after some apocalyptic war with Mars.   But this only has a pasing cyber-punk content, it's more of an anime themed film. I have always loved the cyber-punk genre of science fiction. Neil Stephenson's Snow Crash was a revelation in 1992. It brought cool to tech. I wasn't that much of a comic book or anime kid.  Anyhow, what keeps this film from being the same as every other Anime-marshal-arts film is it's investment level and pedigree. It was produced by James Cameron, while he was making Avatar and you can see the Avatar influence. Especially that mildly creepy performance captured animation.  It was directed by Robert Rodriguez, yes that Robert Rodriguez of El Mariachi Fame and, by the way you should read his book Rebel without a crew if you haven't, it's a fantastic glimpse into the making of a director.  I bet Makeshift sleeps with a copy under his pillow. Alita is a decent story and a watchable movie. It's got some good acting and tries hard.  Worth a watch if you're decompressing after a long day in the salt mines. I also watched the original Ip Man movie. This is a Chinese martial arts movie dubbed in English with the subtitles. But, it's a Chinese marshal arts movie, so do you really need subtitles? Do you really need dialogue? It is just one big marshal art movie trope, but somehow it works. It think it's because the main character, played by Donnie Yen, is just so likable. So again, worth a watch if you've got time on your hands and is currently on Netflix. The protagonist, Ip Man, is based very loosely on the story of the kung fu master who trained Bruce Lee.  And if you don't know who Bruce Lee is then there is no hope for you. I am still working my way through Heinlein's Stranger in a strange land. I'll have more thoughts on it when I get to the end. It gets a bit slow in the middle. Next, our friend Dave, one of the editors here at Apocalypse HQ, tipped us off to an apocalypse podcast story. It is on a podcast named StarShipSofa – all one word and the story he tipped me to is episode 603. It is a story by Elad Haber titled “Number One Hit” read by Jonathan Danz. I listened to it on my long bike ride last weekend and it was outstanding. So my survivor friends, I hope you're enjoying Season two.  We are up over 25,000 downloads. As always you can leap over and join us at the Facebook group by searching for ‘oldmanapocalypse'. I've been informed by one of you that you can just search for “After the Apocalypse” in FaceBook and that will probably get you there. The URL is: https://www.facebook.com/groups/oldmanapocalypseYou can find these notes on ACast with all the links imbedded and you can help keep the show going on Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/AftertheApocalypseAnd Do me a favor – Keep Surviving!
