Episode 181: I Don’t Know Nothin’ Bout Birthin’ No Eggs

Monday, January 25th, 2010

Well, not really as this fresh Monday episode of the Electric Sista Hood podcast is just chock fulla ladies!

Pandalicious and NinJaSistah welcome guest host PyroGirl to the show to chat about the anime and manga series Shugo Chara which former host MagicMysticGrl talk about back in the day. NinJa pretty much just adds the color commentary [sometimes with a really bad "valley" impression] as both Pandalicious and PyroGirl try to impart the seriousness that is Shugo Chara. By seriousness I mean heart of people birthing eggs housing their inner selves… cute, little, chibi selves.

Shugo Chara is a hard series for me to explain so we’ll just impart a quick run down: Cat-Boy not-so-bad-baddie, hints of pedophilia, magical girl syndrome, and girls that turn out to be boys. Oh yeah, probably has some incest in there as well, but the anime series is 102 episodes deep keeping Chara from being some fly-by-night series. Need more convincing to listen to the episode? Here are some of the titles we didn’t use

  • All these 80’s Movies are Turning Her Into ValleySistah
  • Ferrets Steal Shiny Things Like Magpies (But Magpies Aren’t Shiny)
  • For Most Eggs, Their Dreams Ends At KFC
  • I Thought Keybearers Liked Small Locks
  • and finally
  • It’s a Good They Didn’t Mention the Incest Until Last

So grab a glass/mug/pint of your favorite beverage and enjoy Electric Sista Hood Podcast Episode 181: I Don’t Know Nothin’ Bout Birthin’ No Eggs

Episode 180: My Other Car Is a Pleasure Pony

Monday, January 18th, 2010

The first full Monday after the CES recovery week brings with it a new episode of the Electric Sista Hood podcast and this one is focused on Platinum Games new title release Bayonetta.

Finish what you started…

Episode 179: 3D! It Kinda Reeks of Poop

Monday, January 11th, 2010

Although this girl is pointing to somewhere in the desert of Saudi Arabia, the Sistahs weren’t even close to there when recording this week’s podcast. Instead, NinjaSistah was in the desert (Las Vegas), covering the Consumer Electronics Show, while Pandalicious was comfortably at home in the snowdrifts of New England (and perhaps pant-less).

As you might expect, CES was at the forefront of their discussion on the podcast this week, focusing on 3D television technology, e-readers and some new games for the PS3, as well as some talk on Google’s new Nexus One phone.

Here are the titles we rejected for this week’s podcast:

Now Vanna Can Turn the Letters Right In Your Living Room

But Sony Loves Kids — Just Look At the Game Boy

The Mac and Cheese Torch Has Been Passed

Books — You Know — Manga Without Pictures

Get a load of this and all the usual ESH goodness — as well as our replacement for toast — by listening to Episode 179: 3D! It Kinda Reeks of Poop.

(By the way, the girl in the photo is a representative of Kimin Electronic Co., Ltd., a company which manufactures large — up to 42-inch — touchscreen monitors. It’s very impressive stuff, but they don’t fit in your pocket like an iPhone.)

Episode 178: A Farewell to Toast: The Bonus Bits

Monday, January 4th, 2010

A new Monday. A new year. A new clip show piece will kick off 2010 for us here in the land of ESH.

As the next day effects of ushering in a new year subside and I finalize CES travel preparations Evermore has put together an extra bit for those of you who listened to our farewell to toast episode through iTunes last week. [If you catch the show on AllGames.com then you will get piece two of the podcast this week]

Next week, we will be bringing you our final thoughts before leaving the bouncing bosom of Las Vegas with our CES wrap up episode.

But for now, enjoy Electric Sista Hood podcast episode 178: A Farewell to Toast: The Bonus Bits
