Welcome to VGU Gaiden!
Hosted by Graydon Webb and DJ Risio, this retrospective film podcast follows two best friends as they share their favorite films with each other and revisit what makes them special (or in some cases, really weird).

This season, the lads are diving into the original Gundam series – its compilation films – and even some newer works in the franchise!
Join Gundam expert DJ as he informs Graydon of everything Newtype to Neo Zeon.
Can he make a fan out of this newbie?

In what may be our final Gundam episode of the series, the guys explore perhaps their favorite property of all: The 08th Mobile Suit Team. This Romeo & Juliet-inspired social commentary of the Vietnam War really caught Graydon off guard and quickly became one of the best things we’ve seen!
As always, SPOILERS AHEAD!

Editor’s Note: This is the first of a few recordings from a WHILE back. Please forgive any dated references, as well as Graydon’s poor mic quality!
