It's almost the end of Gundam SEED Destiny! Who's character motivations make sense? Who just kinda seems trapped by the script, marching inevitably into villainhood? Who will live? Who will randomly get their memories back? And who will it turn out has not one, but two Deathstars? To find out, you either have to listen, or watch an episode of a 16 year old anime!
Phase 39: Tinker Tailor Soldier DaCosta
DaCosta is back! But he messed up because he's an idiot, oh no! To defend her secret StarCraft factory from DaCosta's incompetence, Lacus Clyne has to launch The Eternal without any Mobile Suit pilots and try to escape from some Nazca class ships. Sure is a shame she has a newer, cooler, Freedomier nuclear Gundam on board with no one to pilot it. If only Athrun and Mu La.... I'm sorry, Captain Neo Roanoke could convince Kira to go help her. His girlfriend. Seems like something he wouldn't do on his own. You'll have to listen and see.

Phase 30: Athrun Got a Rock
This week on the podcast... angry boy evolves into... Grumpy Boy! Grumpy Boy uses "Try to sneak a dying enemy soldier off of the ship in my Gundam." You'll have to listen to see how effective it is.
Also, Kira Yamato gives a speech. "Cry cry, Freedom, mope mope, my girlfriend gave me a cool robot!" Something like that anyway.
