For our chapter 127 podcast we invited two guests. Our first guest was Petter, who hosts a fellow SnK podcast called Titan Teatime and hails from Sweden. Our second guest is one of our favorite past guests, our friend @attackonmomlife who is best known for two things –  loving Eren Jaeger and attending and reporting on SnK events in Japan.

You ask, we delivered. Our guest this month was self-styled democratic Jaegerist Leslie, a former regular on Andrew Allstars livestreams. Listen along as we discuss chapter 126, Pie… er “Pride.”

No timestamps this month. The discussion went off script too many times so we threw our chapter outline out the window and let anarchy reign supreme.

For the chapter 125 podcast we’ve invited #1 Annie Fan, reddit’s /u/stiller3. We hope you enjoy our discussion of chapter 125, “Sunset”

Thanks as always for your support!
