We start off of course with THE SHOUTOUTS!
International Fans keep chiming in along with the Fans from the good ol' USA!
Un mensaje a mis audiovidentes de Latino America!
Mechanimorph, I'm honored that you listen to me while you are walking your dogs....whatever works! LOL!
Hola Jefferson y Jack Paredes!
If you are at this weekend's San Francisco convention with Tommy and Kevin for the Robotech panel, let us know what they had to say. Supposedly they were going to talk about Robotech's future,,,,,,hmmmmm.
INVIDNINJA92, we'll be talking soon! Great website by the way, I'll be mentioning it on a future show!
A LIVE SHOW update! I WANT to do it, now it's a question of HOW to do it!
THE ROBOTECH FILES - Based on the last episode, I'm not going to go over the entire Original 85 episodes again. I did that for 10 episodes and the last Robotech Files was just too long! Going forward, I'll read selected excerpts covering moments from the books, novel only passages and of course the epigraphs! We conclude on this episode the Macross Saga with novels #5 and #6, Force of Arms and Doomsday. Read to you by amateur "thespian" ....JT! ...= P
THE PROTOCULTURE TIMES INTERVIEW - It is my extreme pleasure to interview the author of the fan fiction work Atlantech, Lynn Williams! She is a dear friend and the person who first gave this show a speace on where to advertise! Now this interview is a bit different as we did it through email so I'll be reading both the questions and answers. (and NO WAY ON HELL DID I TRY TO IMITATE LYNN'S VOICE...I have a tough time already imitating my own! LOL!) She talks about Atlantech, her approach to writing and drawing and definitley exercises her right to opinionate on the current state of the Robotech franchise!
Her website: http://www.freewebs.com/theatlantechuniverse/
Her email address: atlantech4000@yahoo.com
For a full transcript of the interview check it out at The Lost Universe of Robotech by clicking here!
We follow that with a short segment that I'm going to dub ROBOTECH WEB GEMS. I like to, in quieter moments, scour around the world wide web and just find random things connected to Robotech On this first installment I found a real sparkler...Did you know of the connection between Robotech and..........Nostradamus???
Check it out by clicking here! And thanks to Aubry Thonon for the great job on this and the Mckinney Purist FAQ for the novels!
And IN THE ROBOTECH SPOTLIGHT, a very special one as it's our first INTERNATIONAL spotlight we shine. A very talented artist hailing from Spain by the name of Isabel aka Ameban. Not only is her Robotech work awesome, her WHOLE gallery is amazing. This girl has a true gift and it is a privilege to profile her work. WOW!
Now this will be part one because Isabel was gracious enough to answer a few questions about her work and Robotech and we'll cover those on our next episode.
Un abrazo Isabel y avisa a todos los fans de Robotech en España que siempre son bienvenidos aqui!
It's great to be back everyone and remember....NEVER TAKE LIFE FOR GRANTED!
But wait........THERE'S MORE?????
You got it! As an extra added bonus I did another edition of the RandomCast!
And boy do I get random here, LOL! Apparently the doc says I keep things in too much (WTF??)...so I do kinda let loose here. There is some language but I keep it to a minimum, just letting you know though.
Some Random Thoughts on...
A "divorce" between Pizza the Hutt and Robotech?
Tommy Yune and....the Tonight Show?
Fan Projects and the parties that bash them...
The application process to join Robotech fandom (WTF??)
....and a few other things.
Oh and MAVERICK_LSC, you stalking little devil you, (LMAO!) I wouldn't listen to this Randomcast if I were you because once again you cause me to "lose it"....but NOT in anger...and this time I didn't do a retake because of the laughter. But seriously, I think you need to lay off the Harmony Gold Kool-Aid because it's killin' them brain cells of yours!
But hey, if you're a glutton for punishment, BE MY GUEST!
We also take a look at the results of the latest Protoculture Times Poll Questions and YES there are brand new ones on the right side of this page!
Thanks to everyone for ALL their support!
REVIVE FOR 25! AND IT'S ANNIVERSARY TIME BABY!
SEEYA!

JT, you have way too much pent up anger in your podcasts. Mav is not bad at all, and your responses to him is making you look more like the fool every time I listen. He helped to bring Robotech to the Space channel up here in Canada. Many canadians respect him for that. Cut him some slack, he knows what he's talking about.
uh Mr. "anonymous" you DO know that JT can view your I.P. address and he knows who you are ;x
might as well just post as yourself eh?
cover is blown anyways
Oh how silly of me.. also Thanks JT!
Being interviewed for your show was one of the best Birthday presents I've ever gotten :D
Thanks a lot!
Thinking about it...what I REALLY want from Harmony Gold.... just some good old honesty.
Just say "ya, we know its been a pretty big gap from Shadow Chronicles to today, and we know that it was a reboot of the franchise insofar that it was new animation and started another chapter of the story, so we really should of continued that story and went with that momentum at a faster pace. Unfortunately for these reasons (fill in the blank), that didnt happen. We have said that the LAM was the biggest set back, but really, we just are not equipped to handle two productions at once, even if we are only handing off source material to Warner Brothers. And ya, we could have invested the money we got from WB into adding new staff or Shadow Rising,, but we ended up investing the cash in our real estate stuff and buying a 6 foot tall Valkyrie for the lobby."
Now I know that will never happen in a MILLION years... because the company line is.. "trust us, and we aint gonna tell you shit, and Warner Brothers owns our balls" but ya know, a man can dream!
Did you really check my IP, lol you have me confused with someone else bud. Lol. I'm not Mav, he's probably Canadian like I am. Maybe that's where your confusion lies. Mav is not the only Robotech fan in Canada bud.
