Oh hello, a little bonus Stacebob Solo Adventure? It must be International Podcast Day! Join me as I waffle to myself about Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie, Volumes 5-7 of the TMNT Ultimate Collection, and From.

As it's Podcast Day, I also recommend a couple of my current favourite podcasts, as well as throwing a very funky song at you. Enjoy!
