This episode is going to be special! Fresh off our successful holiday charity party is a 1-on-1 interview that Kent has conducted with our headliner for that party: The Otaku King, Richie Branson!

Richie is an accomplished music producer and nerdcore hiphop artist who saved Toonami and has rapped about your favorite anime including Cowboy Bebop, Attack on Titan, Gundam, Kill La Kill, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Fist of the North Star.


In this interview, we talk about Richie Branson's rise as a nerdcore hiphop artist, how he got into anime, his love for all things Gundam, THAT infamous show with mc chris, and the good and bad of playing at anime conventions.

We also dive into Richie's latest projects, including his Star Wars x Notorious B.I.G. mashup, Life After Death Star, which is making major waves on Billboard, MTV, io9,  and Yahoo Music. Oh, and we talk about upcoming the Star Wars film, The Force Awakens.

Music Used: "Aznable Dreams" and The Dark Side by Richie Branson

We're well into the fall and we are blessed with tons of great anime and different ways to watch it all. Kent and Shamus saw the NEW Ghost in the Shell movie in theaters and we discuss that and the Arise series it followed up.

We also talk about Seven Deadly Sins, Netflix's anime initiative, Space Adventure Cobra on Crunchyroll, the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure community, and the downfall of Bleach.

And we talk about nonsense at conventions!

NekoCon in Virginia had a nerdcore concert that they CANCELED after ONE SONG due to "unforseen circumstances" but we have the scoop on that and how people in the community are looking to fix things with the NPC Music Festival. 

Plus MORE convention talk with how poorly fan panels are handled are our local cons. All this and more on this action-packed episode of Propeller Anime Radio!
