The Motley Baka

An experimental podcast episode where you, the listener, have to deduce what show we're watching. It's like Anidle, but in a podcast. (Recorded on 06/12/2026)

The boys recap Sakuracon 2025. Maneesh plays Blue Prince, which you can watch here: https://youtu.be/HbcNEGkS8D8 (Recorded on 04/20/2025)

Local anime podcast reacts to local anime podcast.

While in town for some Crystal Chronicles, the boys are fed some false promises at PAX West 2023.

The Japan crew (plus Evan!) is back together after running a panel at Sakuracon. Maneesh updates us on his gaming table.

While in Japan, the gang decides that spending 3 hours in a hotel room recording a podcast that some people literally found out about five minutes before hitting record is a good use of vacation time. (The audio for this episode is a bit worse than normal due to having 7 people and limited mics. We've tried our best to minimize the noise, but it's still audible in lots of places. We apologize.)

Kenneth joins Ian and Staffan for a last minute podcast before everyone except Ian goes to Japan. Except...

The boys are back after the new year to talk about board games and pick out a hypothetical board of directors for fansubbing.com.

Two fansubbing.com correspondents from Canada join us for an episode of the Motley Baka. Absolutely zero hockey talk is allowed.

We realized our home audio setup could also double as a podcasting setup, so we gave it a whirl. What a mistake.
