Interview – Briana Lawrence, Author of 'The Essential Manga Guide'

One Piece 1120 is here, and we’re ready to talk about it on Rookie Pirate Radio, a podcast dedicated to the world of anime and manga. This week, Jon Negroni (me) and Travis Hymas discuss the latest chapter of the One Piece manga, titled “Atlas,” a character we end up only barely talking about because the Will of D is just too dang mysterious. One Piece 1120 is currently available to read for free on Viz.

We want your feedback! If you have any questions, corrections, or your own theories and speculation, you can either email us (rookiepirateradio@gmail.com) or join our Discord, where we have a special channel devoted to all things One Piece spoilers! 

Discussion Points for One Piece 1120 (Spoilers!):
Is Edison really dead?
Will Lilith join the Straw Hats?
Emet is a funny character?!
Could Toki have sent Emet (and Joyboy) forward into the future?
What is Emet's "it" ?
Why would the World Government hunt down people with "D" in their names 26 years ago, but not as much now?
Why didn't the Gorosei move the One Piece after Roger found it? Or did they?

One Piece 1120 Manga Recap – 'Atlas'

Many have said that Mad Men Men is the cure for the common podcast. That's right, this week we discuss and analyze 'Waldorf Stories,' the sixth episode of the fourth season of Mad Men. And we're planning on going on a bender even if we don't win an award for this.

In case this is your first time digging into our podcast, we recap Mad Men from the perspective of a first-time watcher, someone who only watched the show once while it was airing, and a superfan who watches excessively instead of having a functional social life.

Extra credits:

Matthew Weiner created Mad Men, which aired on AMC from 2007 to 2015. Scott Hornbacher directed “Waldorf Stories” and Matthew Weiner co-wrote the script with Brett Johnson. The show stars Jon Hamm, January Jones, Elisabeth Moss, Vincent Kartheiser, Christina Hendricks, John Slattery, Robert Morse, and many more. Our intro music is “Mad Men Men” by Tom Davidson, which is an original remix of the show’s opening theme “A Beautiful Mine” by RJD2. Podcast illustration is by Jon Negroni. Our podcast hosts include Jon Negroni (Podcast Editor of InBetweenDrafts), Will Ashton (cohost of the Cinemaholics podcast), and Michael Overhulse (a guy who’s addicted to working at startups).

S4E6 – Waldorf Stories

It's ok Don, Mad Men Men doesn't have a budget for a commercial, either. That's right, this week we're getting into 'The Chrysanthemum and the Sword,' the fifth episode of Season 4. And we don't need a "gift" from you the listeners, as you just being our listeners is plenty gift enough. Just don't invite us to any sleepovers anytime soon.
