Kamen Knowledge Forever

Riders, last week, Andy and I came to a decision. We’ve decided to get on our Cyclones and Ride off into the sunset. We both loved doing this, but editing each episode myself meant I was putting a lot of time and effort into making this show (and a bit of money). To be honest, it was becoming a little too much like work for just a hobby. I’m glad we did this, and I’m glad we shared our thoughts and hopefully some laughs with you. If you supported the show by listening, please know Andy, Cortney, and I all appreciate you.

If the feed goes offline, this link leads to a Google Drive account with all our episodes. Please feel free to continue sharing the show.

Had Andy and I continued, we would have done Ex-Aid next. Provisionally, our title for that season was “Crazy Ex-Aid Girlfriend.” That was Andy’s idea. I never suggested to him some alternates: “Uncanny Ex-Aid-Men” or “Get Money Get Ex-Aid.” His is probably better.

I did have some others, though, had we gotten around to other shows. Some of these we never would have done, because I wouldn’t be able to bear sitting through them again, but it was fun to think up some others. Let this be my legacy to the toku community:

Hangin’ with Mr. Kuuga

Agito Ergo Sum

Ryuki-ping the Faith

Lord of the Faiz

The Greatest Story Ever Kabutold

East of E-Den-O

Resident Kiva 5

W Your Pleasure

The Wizard of OOO

That’s all for this show, everybody. Thanks for listening. See you next ride.

The Fated Kamen Knowledge Movie Vore Feud

It's that time of year - when the ended Rider and the new Rider have a big ol' crossover! Phil and Andy discuss the fun of a crossover even when it's a bit lackluster. Phil takes the bold stance that you ain't gotta explain jack when it comes to Rider or alternate universes. Andy exhibits remarkable self-control for his horniness on main, despite the prominence of tentacles and vore.

A Gaim of Thrones Episode 9 - Red Eyes Blonde Mai

Phil and Andy decide it’s time for some dang disambiguation up in this piece. Mitchy stretches some brain meat and gets a revelation. Video games taught Kouta everything he needs to know about red barrels. By the by, everything that happens in the main series is almost entirely Gen Urobuchi’s fault.

Kamen Knowledge EXTRA - Phil and Andy’s Zi-Ogus Journey

Phil and Andy talk about the new boy! They like this boy, and they think his adventures have promise! As long as they stay away from dinosaurs that sound like elephants.

A Gaim of Thrones Episode 8 - Don Kaito-te

Phil and Andy delight in a surprising new ship as they learn about Kaito's Secret Origin and marvel at a truly great fight scene. They also draw lines between Takatora Kureshima and Cobra Commander. All that, plus danger apples, mango chunkins, and the strength of this episode's limited scope. Andy pulls out a truly great segue, and Phil speaks at length about Gaim in the greater context of the Kamen Rider franchise.

Free Thoughts on the Proceedings of Zi-O

After episode 1, Phil feels positive. It’s easy to get a first episode of Rider right, but there’s also some real story potential.

Andy’s jury is still out, but we may have something more to say soon. Stay tuned!

Phil: You don't know how Gaim ends do you

Andy: Lol nope

Andy: I hope everyone dies

[kamenknowledgepodcast]

This is definitely the best part of Heisei Generations FINAL, and perhaps the greatest Rider moment in recent memory.

A Gaim of Thrones Episode 7 - Unmistakably Lynchian

It's damned fine coffee you got here in Zawame City. And damn good fruity cake.

Phil made this image years ago and not a day goes by that he ever regrets it.

A Gaim of Thrones Episode 6 - Make Ritualized Combat Lethal Again

Buckle the heck UP, because MISTEERRRRRR DAAAAANGEROUS is now in the building! That’s right, Kamen Rider Bravo is here, and Andy’s got some considered Opinions about him. Meanwhile, Mai buys a thirst gift with the company funds, and Mitchy stumbles into his brother’s Secret Suitcase of Cool Secret Stuff. All this, plus, the Official Power Couple get some very silly Armored Rider names.

PROGRAMMING NOTE

Hey everybody in Listener Land, Kamen Knowledge is pushing the schedule out a week. The bois recorded late and Phil needs time to edit. The next episode will come out Tuesday, July 31st.

We will then resume our regular programming of alternating weeks, meaning the episode after that will come out August 14th. Thank you for your patience!

A Gaim of Thrones Episode 5 - Takatora Literacy Watch

This week, Phil and Andy get into some ~shipping ethics~. Andy makes one of the greatest jokes of his life, but it has a cuss, which means it couldn't be the episode title. Then, we hope you're ready for an extended piece about mapping Gaim characters to Spider-Man's supporting cast. Get you somebody who looks at you the way Jonouchi looks at Ryouji.

A Gaim of Thrones Episode 4 - Pwease Mr Kuweshima!

Get ready to be graped for days and days and days, because in this episode, the younger Kureshima brother gets his Driver! This week, Phil and Andy map our main four Riders onto the Spice Girls, admire Takatora's eyeliner, and of course discuss that good good MitchyKouta subtext. Mitchy's Nice Guy(TM) routine is already worrisome, and we discover a sobering fact about Kaito's kinks. There's also a surprising amount of talk about Bob Barker's genitals, which is to say: any.

By the way, please, PLEASE don’t look up the eyeliner-blowjob correlation. Phil was referring to this post from long-defunct comedy Tumblr txtsfromtoku. Spoilers abound, so beware!

A Gaim of Thrones Episode 3 - The Ballad of Juicy Boys

The computers got all ganked up and ate some of the audio on this one, but Phil and Andy still deliver some quality bits. Kaito shows the world his banana while Kouta struggles with being a total goofus (yes, again). Who's Jounouchi taking to the bone zone? The Subtext is Real. Plus, Phil reminisces about a contemporary commercial and regales Andy with the Saga of JUICY kid.

A Gaim of Thrones Episode 2 - Big Gay Mad

Phil and Andy are BACK, and they're here to talk about a whole bunch of stuff! Like what? How trash collection happens. Gaining telepathy by having sex with someone. All that, PLUS Kaito's big gay anger! Don't miss it!

[kamenknowledgepodcast]

PROGRAMMING UPDATE!

Hey everybody! We’re still here! Please note that there WILL be an episode this week! It’ll just be late because travel and work got in Phil’s way.

Thank you for your patience!
