Mobile Suit Breakdown: the Gundam Podcast
@gundampodcast.bsky.social
We make that Gundam podcast you love.
Pinned
Hi! We're a weekly podcast about watching and discussing all of Gundam in order, one episode at a time, and researching the people who made it, the historical and cultural inspirations they drew on, the real (ish) science they incorporated, and the impact it's had on the world.
We’re old!
Big congratulations to @gundampodcast.bsky.social on seven(!) years this month.

FYI there will be no new episode on the public feed this week. Thom hurt his neck and hasn't been able to sit at the computer long enough to finish the editing. We'll be back next week with episode 10.49.

It’s never a bad time to enjoy the Gundam 10th Anniversary ‘All that Gundam’ short from 1989. Created by some notable industry experts, and a wonderful watch. 🔥
Audio is a must! Over 15 years prior to Kenji Kawai drafting the full Gundam 00 soundtrack..

I Trapped A 15-Year Old in an Experimental Mobile Suit. If he stays in it until the end of the One Year War, he gets to live!

Do you know how often I remember @gundampodcast.bsky.social pointing out that this was THE VERY FIRST FANSERVICE SCENE in all of Gundam... Because I remember that a lot.
People think about the many Gundam girls through the years, but only Char could be Gundam's First Fanservice Scene.

Meanwhile, is this what GQuuuuuuX was doing talking about MAVs

The episode titles for the Mobile Suit Breakdown season on Char’s Counterattack are all quotes from this song for a Reason
a facet of CCA that I think is underrepresented in discussions about its themes and meaning is the fact that it ends in a song with lyrics like these

This week on MSB: Victory Gundam ep. 43!
We meet a new BESPA character who will surely be around a while, ponder whether Fuala Griffon is a Char or perhaps more of a Yazan back for revenge, and debate the merits of Uso's 'after school special' storyline.

Whew! Here's the initial chunk of "Nippon Sunrise 1976~1987," the second part of my ongoing history of the Sunrise animation studio. It turns out I have a *lot* to say about Sunrise's first independent original work, "Super Machine Zambot 3."

Thom and Nina are in the next room recording @gundampodcast.bsky.social and I can hear approximately 0% of what they're saying apart from the bit where Thom loudly proclaims "I'm LEAVING I'm DONE here" and then remains firmly in the room so look forward to that later I guess if youre a gundam patron
