POPULARITY
Show Notes This week on MSB: prog rock, MTV VJs (that's Video DJ for any youngsters in the audience), a science fiction double feature, something even more evil than Ticketmaster, the greatest and only city in the world, and just a little bit of G Gundam. Plus, Nina reports back on three whole episodes of Gundam you've almost certainly never seen! Mobile Suit Breakdown is written, recorded, and produced within Lenapehoking, the ancestral and unceded homeland of the Lenape, or Delaware, people. Before European settlers forced them to move west, the Lenape lived in New York City, New Jersey, and portions of New York State, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Connecticut. Lenapehoking is still the homeland of the Lenape diaspora, which includes communities living in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario. You can learn more about Lenapehoking, the Lenape people, and ongoing efforts to honor the relationship between the land and indigenous peoples by visiting the websites of the Delaware Tribe and the Manhattan-based Lenape Center. Listeners in the Americas and Oceania can learn more about the indigenous people of your area at https://native-land.ca/. We would like to thank The Lenape Center for guiding us in creating this living land acknowledgment.

The Statue of Liberty Cannon!
You're going after Rain, right? Right?!
Alright G Gundam, we're back in.
Get in the Gundam, Domon.
At least Marie Louise got to do something.
This week, the hosts turn up the heat with G Gundam's hot-blooded hero, Domon Kasshu: the man who screamed and fought his way into Gundam history. Dee, Jay and LJ look back on Gundam's 15th anniversary anime that shook the entire format of the series itself by being one of Gundam's most divisive shows. Tune in as the hosts give their thoughts on the current Fall/Winter '25 anime season and upcoming anime releases in 2026, as well as the difficulties of being a Gundam manga fan in the US, before diving into different takes on the highs and lows that Domon brings to the Gundam franchise both as a character and as a Mobile Fighter pilot.

Why does Domon always forget how to fight?
Don't forget to thank the bus driver.
Wait, Schwartz is who?!
Cancel Domon Kasshu.
Wong is in peak form.
I wish to rescind my earlier statement about Team Trinity: you do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to them." Can you IMAGINE how annoying it would be to fight the Drei? Or rather, to fight whoever the Drei is with. The Drei itself, not a big deal. If you'll forgive me for that. But having all your sensors jammed... I needed those!

GET THE FULL EPISODE ON PATREON HERE: patreon.com/posts/130683478 COME SEE US IN LONDON JUNE 22ND: bigbellycomedy.club/event/lions-led…ival-southbank/ Freed from the oppressive yoke of G Gundam, we venture into a different OVA series where Gundam is actually... good? We watched Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket, a show about the horrors of war seen through the eyes of a child who, while not exactly bright or good at school, is somehow able to outsmart every single adult in this show. To include entire military organizations and spy agencies?
Gundams can't talk, George.
Not our problem, Domon.

GET MAD, DOMON!!!
There's no time to explain!
Nijimura Brothers Part 4
George is perhaps the Gundam Fighter in the most need of professional help.
Look... the East is burning red. Across worlds, across timelines, this line of G Gundam strikes a chord as SEED'S eastern kingdom of Not-Japan, Orb, creates a red gundam to bear a katana. Oh, perhaps that's not quite the order of events, since it didn't get its sword until later. But other SEED media has shown that Orb will make katana for their mobile suits, so perhaps it was going to happen one way or the other....
