Hey all!

But first......Anniversarycast #8!
Download this episode (right click and save)
So WHY does everything happen in Robotech? Well only one guy can take "responsibility" for that......ZOR!
I'm sure he wants to take back that trip he took to Optera huh? I consider Zor the most tragic figure in the Robotech story as his discovery of Protoculture sets off a chain of events that equates to one incredible ass whoopin' for the home base....EARTH.
His story and how we get to Episode 1 of the Original 85 are chronicled quite well in the novels and the comice series Genesis: The Legend of Zor and the graphic novel Genesis.
We see his reincarnation in Zor Prime in the Masters Saga, And with what he does in the finale...even his clone can't get it right! But Zor's legacy continues with a second clone , Rem, in the Sentinels and he deals with things a whole lot better!
Then you have End of the Circle.....where all things resolve themselves.....and you're left saying.....WHAT THE.....? I want to do a full review of the novel so in between everything else going on, I'm currently reading it AND taking notes....maybe in this re exploration, I can maybe finally make sense of some of the things that happen...ESPECIALLY with Rem....and Minmei.
Stay tuned for that....
And as a little teaser to Episode #20....it's full of special guests....here's a couple!....
From Chile, a fan fic author I've been wanting to interview for awhile. She is talented and a passionate Robotech fan! I'm so happy to finally have her through an E-interview (email).
CARLA "FOX" AGUILAR ARIAS
And for this milestone, I will replay the interview I did back in December with singer, songwriter, and of course the singing voice of Lancer/Yellow Dancer from Robotech's New Generation...
MICHAEL BRADLEY
And there is MORE to come!....Check back here on Friday for the full list of guests! It will be one to remember!
And don't forget! We still have poll questions and the Quarter Finals of the SDF-25 Mecha Tournament!
IT'S ANNIVERSARY TIME BABY!!!!!!!!!!
REVIVE FOR 25!

JT, I've got a bit of insight on Zor Prime, that came about from watching the Southern Cross episodes REALLY closely when researching my fanfic. It specifically deals with his actions at the end of that arc. Do you want me to send it off to you, and if so, in what form?
BTW, if you were left scratching your head by the whole Zor/Rem thing in TEotC, try reading my fic sometime. The Freeman Chronicles STARTS with the situation in TEotC, with the intent to right what went wrong, and finally give Zor some real peace of mind...
P.S. How the hell do you get TypePad accounts to recognize for purposes of posting here? I can't get the "Comment as:" to recognize mine...
Hi JT! I'm waiting here for the podcast :) Best of luck and thank you for the oportunity :)
