Oldtaku no Radio #003 – Voltron: Legendary Defender vs. Beast King Golion

Third time’s the charm(er)! Episode No. 003: Ink and Jared assemble to form … their opinions on 2016’s Voltron: Legendary Defender. Both hosts watched Voltron: Defender of the Universe on TV while growing up, so this episode looks at the property’s most recent reboot through the rose-colored glasses of nostalgia as tempered by a recent twelve-episode rewatch of the original Beast King Golion. For analytical kicks and giggles, Jared watched BKG and VLD episode per episode, while Ink marathoned BKG then VLD.
