It's April fools day, which means we're back for a very special episode and some updates on the future of the podcast.

The party is just getting started as most every guest we've had on the show before comes together to discuss the final episode. Imagine yourself a nice warm cup of miso soup and listen in.

Marcus joins the podcast from across the Atlantic to discuss the penultimate episode! This week, Baki wrecks another car with his body, is thrown around more vigorously than a towel, and gets a ride on his dad's shoulders.

Sumeeta is back for the antepenultimate (look it up) episode of Baki Talki to discuss handpockets for the 10th time. But afterwards, the ghost of Baki's Grandad defeats the US navy!

Phil comes back to the pod one last time to discuss Baki fighting his dad and ... The bills game is on. See you all next week!

This week, the final duo episode! And what a dynamic duo to end things on. We discuss the logistics of loosening your muscles into gas, and whether or not the author has ever been punched in the face. And we finally answer the world's greatest urban legend, will some guy will fight his dad outside a hotel?

Christian returns to the show to talk about how much he loves a good pickle. We also discuss the ongoing father son fight, which some would describe as the greatest father son fight in history.

Early episode to end 2023! I decided to take it easy this week by doing another compilation episode that is like twice the editing work of a usual episode. Thanks to everyone for listening and I'll be back next week with the start of Baki vs Yujiro. No recommendations this week, so don't be tricked by the audio cues I've used. Just because I enjoy a snippet of the music does not mean the show gets my official endorsement. But bonus points if you can name where any of them came from.

It's December 25th, we all know what that means. A brand new episode of Baki Talki! My Dad returns to the show to discuss the build up to a potentially massive father son fight.

Lindsay is back, and she is pumped to get to talk more Baki. And boy do we have a fun one, because Retsu is still in Vegas and Baki is fighting basically a man on the street.

Boxing is back baby! This week Jeff joins the show to talk about Smoking Joe Cruiser, the legally distinct boxer. We also touch on concussions, and Baki's Big butt.

Jack is back! This episode we take a look at the mysterious (and totally real) new Baki spinoff, Baki Rahen Dou. Will Baki's daughter be able to live up to the challenges her father faced? On a more serious (if slightly) note, Retsu fights Wembanyama in Vegas. and Yujiro makes Baki eat on the floor.

Prolific guest and sister Kathryn returns to the podcast one last time. This week, we take a deep dive into the psychosis of Baki Hanma when no one is watching, as well as a return from our favourite president, Barak Osma.

Scott joins the show for in his opinion, the worst episode of Baki he's seen yet. But if you want to see Retsu make a mockery of 150 years of boxing tradition, or a man rage over making his son rice, this might be the episode for you. https://elan.school/ This is my recommendation of the week btw.

Somehow, against all odds we have a new guest even in the final season! Listen in to hear Millie's thoughts on the fantastical world of Baki. Does it take place in reality? Can they time travel? We will get to the bottom of things.

Baki Talki is back, for the final time! But more importantly Ali is back! Finally, we can discuss the real love stories of Baki. The maternal love between Kozue and Muhammad Alai Jr. The Romantic love between Baki and Kozue. And the weirdly in the middle love between Baki and his mom.

This podcast has too many laughs for my mic to handle. Literally, it blew up. But luckily we were able to get a replacement so we can discuss if Pickle should be put back into the salt. And we also talk about the most popular president since Reegan, Barak Osma.

We're back and I've never been so tired. Going to go to sleep as soon as I think of some funny moment from the episode to reference. Oh, Pickle gets punched in the balls. Alright, see y'all next week for the finale!

Pankhuri joins the pod for the first time to discuss Pickle's absolute beatdown at the hands of Baki. Listen as we discuss the logic in swallowing your own blood, the inexplicable age of Hanayama, and the most magical boy.

It's been a busy week ok? This week, we're trying something new with a live commentary, next week we'll be back with another amazing guest.
