This time we have two segments. In the first (0:46-41:27), Anne from Pikapi Podcast is back again to debate the merits of the English and Japanese ending themes of Pokémon Heroes. These two songs provide quite a contrast, so you should find it interesting. Our second segment (41:53-58:29) is a series of interviews from the recent Oceania International Championship in Melbourne, Australia. I had a chance to interview some of the top finishers, as well as a collector of Pokémon merchandise. Thanks.

This episode has two segments. In the first (0:46-39:24), Anne from Pikapi Podcast returns to discuss the English and Japanese ending themes of Pokémon 4Ever. We talk about the songs themselves, and which one we prefer. Our second segment (39:32-46:57) is from Anime Milwaukee 2017, where I interviewed the winner of the Pokémon Sun & Moon Tournament, who just so happens to be a YouTube Manga reviewer. Find out about his team, and his channel. Note: During the first segment, Anne incorrectly states that Russel Velazquez wrote "Two Perfect Girls" and "Biggest Part Of My Life" on Totally Pokemon. The only song from that album he wrote is "The Game".

For this episode, we have two segments. The first (0:50-26:33) is a discussion with Anne of Pikapi Podcast comparing the English and Japanese ending themes of the third Pokémon movie. As usual, we go over the production details, then evaluate the songs and decide which one comes out on top. Our second segment (26:41-42:04) is an archival interview with Helen McCarthy, author of "The Anime Encyclopedia". This was recorded at a press session at Anime Central 2014, so the audio quality isn’t perfect, but it should still be a good listen.
