Leon Bartolome Steele: Podcast #104 (Experimental)

Labor Day, May 1: I was invited by a VTuber by the name of Leon Bartolome Steele to hang out at the Bonifacio Global City, a ride away from one of the Philippines' busiest economic centers. It was a holiday with a twist, as I get to spend a day with a VTuber who is set to return to streaming.

Leon, host of the Leon's Den and an active chatter, joins me on this impromptu, experimental episode*.

Now that he's back to streaming, he's started a donothon to assist with his medical bills. After listening to this episode, consider your participation by donating through his Gank page.

Interacting with Virtual YouTubers is fun, especially if both of you are interested in one or more topics. On this episode, I got Virtual YouTuber Terumi Koizumi talk about branding on this hour-long episode.

Episode 87: Fandom February / Good VTuber Subs with MaDe-paisen

Our second podcast for the month of March features MaDe-paisen, a.k.a. Matthew Marcelo.

He's been coding for so long that when a comment on a Reddit board pissed him off so much, he had built the Good VTuber Subs bot on Twitter.

This, among his other projects, shows how he is an "otaku for others."

This discussion talks about the recently-held Fandom February as well as the Good VTuber Subs in general.

Episode 65: Marupok - I thought I will no longer talk about MNL48 again.

Episode 65: Marupok - I thought I will no longer talk about MNL48 again.

🎙️ On this podcast - Ryusei of Tokupinoy joins me at OtaCutE to talk about MNL48 - a topic that I can't resist talking about, even after I graduated from the group's fandom. (Listener discretion is advised)

Trivia: The Tokupinoy guys listen to this podcast too! :) They found me on Spotify as they search for MNL48 stuff there. Listen to my previous episodes related to MNL48 on this playlist. I forgot to mention this on record but I have a large playlist of all the songs I love to keep - check out My musical keepsakes. on Spotify.

Thank you to those I met at Otakufest 2020 - I'll be back in Cebu again this June for Bon Odori! See you also at AICon 2020 this March!

I sat down with Chad Ramos of The Reimaru Files to discuss a recap of pop-culture and esports events in 2019, and what we can learn from other community events which have sprouted in the country.

Also, I have a bonus clip from Otaku Expo 2020 that is waiting for you to know. Keep watching until the end! (Don't forget that I have an exclusive interview with DMYO-sensei on the blog too).
