    This is a great podcast.
    I've been listening to the Reverse Thieves podcast for years now. From their season previews to their standard monthly show, the hosts do a great job of keeping me up to date with the latest in anime. I highly recommend both this podcast and their blog.

    Obnoxious weaboos...
    This anime podcast is just annoying to listen to. Both of the hosts are the stereotypical hypersensitive progressive tools you find on tumblr. Whats even worse is the degree to which the female co-host is a japanaphile. She has japan so far up her butt that she even states she prefers the japanese audio version of Cowboy Bebop, despite the creator Shinichiro Watanabe preferring the english dub. If you really want an entertaining anime podcast, i recommend listening to either Anime World Order, Otaku Spirit, or A3k instead.

    Excellent Podcast
    This monthly podcast is an excellent information source that makes sure not to just be reviews but to take an in-depth analysis of shows and news. They manage to get a range of opinions from the anime fandom which makes for excellent listening, one of the best anime podcasts around.

    Great podcast and brilliant hosts
    I've been listening to the Reverse Thieves for a while now and I find it indispensable when looking for a sounding board for opinions and insights into manga and anime. Kate and Alain are great hosts and the guests, special reports and reviews they do support the even larger written "Investigations" portions of the website. Great way of getting into anime and manga without worrying about being swamped.
