Live from MTAC Odyssey, we talk to Neil Kaplan (Optimus Prime in Transformers: Robots In Disguise, Tychus Findlay in Starcraft II) about his charity Audio Theater For The Troops, acting, and The Chef's obsessive Optimus Prime collection.
In the ultimate showdown of JRPG versus Western RPG, Cicelie, Dylan, John, and Mike discuss Dragon Age and Final Fantasy XIII. (Now with crappy audio quality, because I didn't turn the mic volume down!)
Cicelie, Dylan, John, and Mike discuss the highs and lows (mostly lows) of the Clash of the Titans remake.
Dylan, Geoffrey, and John discuss their picks for the NCAA basketball and Funimation anime brackets.
Thanks to Right Stuf shipping it early, the crew watches and discusses Evangelion 1.11 before release.
Chad and Dylan get a quick interview with Kagan, the organizer for Three Rivers Con, between gaming sessions.
When Nathan and Mike bail on the podcast, the crew has to postpone the previously scheduled topic and struggle to fill dead air time.
The crew discusses the best movies, TV, games, and books of 2009.
The crew broadcasts live from Kajonk-A-Con 2009 in Knoxville, TN, discussing underrated anime and various other random topics. We also interview Damian Zannini, the con director, about what makes KAC different from so many other anime/gaming cons.
The crew discusses the best NES games of all time, Rock Band vs. Guitar Hero, the Blizzard and Make-A-Wish campaign/scandal, and DJ Hero.
Digging back into the archives of "crap I should have done but kept putting off," here is the last non-convention-related episode we recorded in March. I don't even remember what we discussed, other than Mike brought some Tentacle Grape for us to try. For those of you keeping score at home, that's 7 months old. And we've released two podcasts since then. Shame on me, I know. Intro/outro: "0000000012" by ALONE IN THE CHAOS (http://www.jamendo.com/en/album/18711)
After a very long hiatus, the Chainsaw Buffet guys head to Anime Weekend Atlanta and get an interview with Lucas Leverett, the chairman for Middle Tennessee Anime convention. We discuss the state of the anime industry, what it takes to run a convention, and GMX--the Geek Media Expo that MTAC will be presenting the weekend of October 2-4 in Nashville.
Possibly the single largest guest list we've ever had. The members of The Man Power, The Notorious MSG, and The Slants sit down with John, Charlie, and Dylan at Middle Tennessee Anime Convention to talk about their music, anime, and other important matters.
Charlie, Dylan, and John sit down for a few minutes and discuss driving, press passes, and almost dying in a tornado. Fun times... fun times.
Catching up. John and 15-year-old anime women. Legal woes of pix messaging. WoW jumps the shark? Everyone but Dylan agrees: Fallout 3 and Fable II suck. Tequila worm suckers. Wasabi tastes like bee stings. Second Life has a point? CAT EDIT! Playstation Home: beware of gay German dudes. Another round of XBox 360 vs. PS3. XNA: neat idea, but lots of crap. Porn spam on the work phone. Torgo is on vacation. Affirmative Action patch notes. Outliers.
Yes, it's late and the audio quality likely leaves something to be desired, but here it is: our episode recorded at Kajonk-A-Con 2008 in Knoxville, TN. We start out with our live podcast (where Chad drags in hapless congoers for witty repartee), and finish up with our interview with Damian Zannini, the organizer of KAC.
The Best Buy Incident. yourmomssexy@chainsawbuffet.com. Dylan fails at guerilla marketing. John on the First Amendment: "what the hell is your problem, motherf@#$er?" Sow the seeds of chaos! Most misleading coupon EVAR. Venom energy drink: it's a can that opens like a bottle! John is President John Henry Eden. I've got to go put a gun in my mouth now... I'm everything I hate. Bacteria porn. Eat more turducken.
Activision sucks! Drink Moxie or I'll f-ing kill you. We'll all be dead soon. I was a dumb, dumb child. Candy corn soda is liquid Rock Revolution. We don't have listeners. PODCAST@CHAINSAWBUFFET.COM. Mike's done with rhythm games. Honest Bob and the Factory-to-Dealer Incentives. Dead Space. Fallout 3. Fable II. Jen just killed the podcast. Nathan's cell phone. In the recession, there is no place for novelty soda. Folklore. Little Big Planet. Valkyria Chronicles. Cancelling World of Warcraft acco...
The crew plans out a cheesy home horror movie they're going to film the week before Halloween. "We typically don't script at all--we just do the general outline and ad lib." Mike's ninja movies. Bastardized Guitar Hero controllers. Voltron versus monster. Video podcasts? Scary Movie 4. More railing against Blue Dragon. Mana Energy Drink still tastes terrible.
On a special two-part episode of the Chainsaw Buffet Podcast, we travel to Anime Weekend Atlanta to talk with The Man Power (http://www.myspace.com/themanpower) and Simon Young of The Slants (http://www.theslants.com/) about their music, bands, and interests (including, of course, anime). Having seen their shows and met them at MTAC this year, there were already some big fans among the Chainsaw Buffet crew. Hailing from Nashville, the Man Power is anything but country. In fact, if you said that ...
By Chad's Dylan's logic, we should shut down Chainsaw Buffet. Dylan breaks his caffeine fast. URNATION. Peelander Z coffee. Transformers Animated. Optimus Prime is not a firetruck nor is he a f**king gorilla. Warhawk: buy it for the Bluetooth headset. Burnout Paradise. EA, why do you love the terrorists? More Zune talk. Alestorm: pirate metal. Amazon MP3 rocks, iTunes sucks. The Christmas clock. Dylan sucks at the musical taste. Mike explains the stock market and economic crisis. Breast cancer a...
THE GALLON CHALLENGE: you have one hour to drink a gallon of milk, and one more hour to keep it down. This episode, we attempt the challenge while doing a podcast. Were we successful? Listen and find out. Goofy-handed straight-chug style. The Gallon Challenge as part of Ninja Warrior: is anyone at G4 listening? Nathan loves The Force Unleashed but hates Dead or Alive. Let's give out all our passwords on the podcast! The Rock Band double-strum bass. Cartoon Network cancelling Toonami: this will b...
Braid is not a game. Mana Energy Potion--now with horrible side effects! YOGU-TIMEU! Ginseng drink: a Lovecraftian monster in a bottle. Refrigeration drinking enhances flavor. The Gallon Challenge! Pre-order fights. Listener emails... from Russia. Time flows differently in podcast land. Digg, approve our podcast already. BRAID SPOILERS--what does it mean? Grenade down the pants. World of Warcraft is one of the worst offenders.

The Slants are an Oregon-based band whose genre-defying music combines high-energy beats ...
