In this episode Andrew stops by to talk about a crazy episode of Kamen Rider X: Starfish Hitler. We also discuss childhood war time propaganda shorts, the difference in dealing with death in Japanese television and North American programming and much much more. Be Warned the shorts contained have some incredible racists elements if that's not something you'd like to see please do not watch them.
