I absolutely thrilled that even just a small number of people enjoyed the topic. I knew
*I* found it interesting, and I was stoked when Meri said she really wanted to do the episode, but I wasn't sure if we were going to be getting a little too in-depth for our listeners to really care about. I'm so happy that wasn't the case.
kirbopher: By all means, please send another question! I've been so busy the last couple of days, I've really lost some time on my re-reading, so you're definitely due to have at least
*one* question on the show, soon

Regarding honorifics and titles, I just skimmed through these two Wikipedia entries, and they're pretty damn awesome.

As for Julian's volume levels, that's something you need to yell at
*him* about. He'll be perfectly matched during out audio-testing session, and then start talking all quiet during the show
. I manually went through and bumped up each individual portion of his talking as best I could this episode, but sometimes it wasn't enough. Granted, I did accidentally have myself and Meri a little higher than normal on the mixer, but it doesn't change the fact that Julian was theoretically putting out the exact same waveform we were when the show began!
*smacks*
And finally, let me make it perfectly clear that I do
*not* hate FUNimation, and think the FUNimation of this era is an absolutely phenomenal company, really cares about their fans, and put out some jaw-droppingly-amazing products.
However, this doesn't change the fact that I think the DBZ dub is absolutely retarded and has caused me to put up with a bunch of bullshit nonsense that drives me up the wall
