Hey there! We've got a new episode of Sideburns & Cigarettes out today, so I'll start a thread here to keep up with all of our episodes moving forward!

We've got a very special one to kick off this thread too! We reviewed the newest crossover film "Lupin III vs. Cat's Eye" with not one, but two special guests. Our co-host in Switzerland, joining us for his very first full episode, Guillaume, and none other than the lovely fellow behind Lupin Central himself, Lee Sparkes!! It was such a delight to have both of them on the show, and we had a blast covering this new movie.

Hope you enjoy it!

NEW EPISODE! Usually we don't get another episode out this soon, but this has been sitting on the backburner for a bit. We're almost back to covering Part 1, but before that, we've got some more catching up to do! In this episode, we cover episodes 5 through 9 of Lupin's first TV outing. It's our longest episode to date, and personally, one of my favorite discussions we've had about Part 1 so far.

Hope you enjoy it!

Been incredibly busy as of late and not as active in here as I'd like to be. Hoping that will change in the coming days, and I almost forgot to mention we have a NEW EPISODE!

After a whole year since I last said we'd be be returning to Part 1 on the podcast, we're finally back. Our episode-by-episode coverage resumes with our review of Episode 10, "Target the Cash Counterfeiter!". Join us as we talk baked bean bullets, the Practice of Cagliostro, parallels to Soviet counterfeiting, the Wet Bandits, the inevitability of time, and much more!

I'm so happy to finally be back to talking about Part 1. Now that we're covering individual episodes, you'll be hearing us a bit more frequently! :kar_jigen: Hope you enjoy it!

Life has been a bit all over the place as of late but I finally remembered to post our newest episode here. 😅 We're now around the halfway mark of Part 1 (well, as halfway you can get in an odd number of episodes) with our review of Part 1, Episode 12: "Who Had the Last Laugh?"

Join us as we talk Lupin being a gremlin, squeaky snow, boring villains, village bombing, badass Fujiko, klutzy Jigen, tiger skin boxers, and much more! Hope you enjoy it!

Life has continued to be a bit busy for me recently, and I've completely neglected posting here. I wanna try to remedy that, not just for the podcast announcements, but also in general. Figured a catch-up post for the podcast would be kinda fun. So, here's what we've been up to since June of last year lmao.



Friend of the show and general all-around cool personh Saph joined us to discuss Lupin's first face-off with Mamo...but not that Mamo (Mamoh?) in Part 1, Episode 13, "Beware the Time Machine!"
SoundCloud, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Podbean.



Lauren (The Abbey Roadie), talented artist, designer of our banner art, and dear friend of the show, returned to talk the emerald-hunting shenanigans of Part 1, Episode 14, "The Emerald's Secret."
SoundCloud, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Podbean.



Our man in Switzerland, Guillaume, gave us a brief minisode on the role sex has played in the Lupin III franchise over the years, for better, and worse, in A Few Sideburns More: Sex and Lupin the Third. CONTENT WARNING:
This minisode contains discussion of sexual violence

Returning guest, creator of Lupin Central, and absolutely sweetheart Lee Sparkes joined us for a review of Jigen's big, live-action movie in Daisuke Jigen: A Review of "Jigen Daisuke."
SoundCloud, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Podbean.



Our co-host, The Amazing Chris Godbey™, was unable to join us due to a bacherlor par--er, no longer with us during said review of "Jigen Daisuke." So, we called upon him from the afterlife to get his thoughts in A Few Sideburns More: The Summoning of Chris Godbey.

Austin, Bill, and Sully from the Third Impact Anime Podcast (one of the single best anime podcasts out there imo) were kind enough to join us for The Third (Impact) Annual Sideburns & Cigarettes Holiday Special. In which we discuss the birth of Jesus Christ...and his vampiric twin sister, of course!
SoundCloud, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Podbean.



We revisited one of our favorite recent Lupin series for its one year anniversary (give or take a month) in Lupin Zero: One Year Later.
SoundCloud, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Podbean.



Most recently, we discussed the Saturday morning cartoon hijinks and trials of our man Zenigata in Part 1, Episode 15, "Let's Catch Lupin and Go to Europe."
SoundCloud, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Podbean.



As you can see, we've been up to quite a lot! We've plenty more on the way as well! In fact, our review of Part 1, Episode 16, "Operation: Jewelry Snatch" will be here on Monday, Mar. 4th!

Another big update is we now have an official Discord server! It's open to any and all Lupin fans who are 18 and over. If you're a fan of the pod or just want to discuss Lupin with us and plenty of other awesome fans, feel free to join! We also have a few more streams planned for sometime this year (I promise, we're trying to find the time lol). If you'd like to join, just send me a DM!

Like I said, I hope to be a little more active here. This is such a lovely little place and it's so nice to have another Lupin forum on the web. See y'all around!

We're back with another new episode! Join us as we discuss The Great Hoover Heist of 1972 in Part 1, Episode 16, "Operation Jewelry Snatch."

Poor Lupin can't catch a break. Gaslit by Fujiko to perform a brazen heist at an upscale jewelry store only for her to double-cross him. Beaver, the store's less-than-upstanding owner, intends get even with both of them. To make matters even worse, Zenigata is out to nab every party involved. Is there any way for Lupin to come out on top?
