So you're working 8 to 4 instead of 9 to 5, right? Maybe I'm wrong, but whatever.

I'd love to hear more about the translation work you guys do. I just finished Tales of Xillia (knowning from the start you guys translated it), and found myself wondering at multiple points through the game just what the thought process was in how you guys do it. That, and I'd just love to know just what the hell was going on when you translated Golden Gaffe in Fire Emblem Awakening. I haven't laughed at a game so much in a really long time, and I figure there's no way the script was like that in the original Japanese.

Just a little gripe, and you all can do what you want, but can you start putting the dates on these 8-4 podcasts again? Sometimes I don't remember if this is the week with a podcast or if it's the off week

Been playing Tales of Xillia and I love the translation. However, I still wonder what are BAZOONGAS?!

If you're referring to their name, it's based off of the last level of super mario bros: 8-4

This is the first time listening to the 8-4 podcast and I have to say - I'm totally into it.

Is it worth going back and listening to all the episodes?

@facewas: For sure. I started listening just before E3 and have loved every podcast since. Yes, you know what they're talking about because it's old news, but it'd still be worth listening to.
