After hitting the ten-year mark just a few short months ago, our next podcast milestone was the big 4-0-0. Excuse our indulgence as we reminisce a bit on what the podcast means to us and our listeners before heading into our exciting topic for the week: an interview with longtime fan, friend, previous Dragon Ball fansite owner, and current Shueisha writer/superfan Greg Werner…!
SHOW DESCRIPTION:
Episode #0400! VegettoEX invites a few friends of the show to look back at our past. Kirbopher pops in to reminisce about the podcast, its strengths and weaknesses, and what the future holds for us. Greg Werner then joins us for an interview about discovering the Dragon Ball series in America in the mid-1990s, developing one of the early fansites, navigating the increasingly-hostile and confusing fandom, writing for Beckett’s magazine, and making the transition to professional One Piece fandom. Here’s to another 400 episodes!

This was a great episode, I loved hearing Greg Werner’s story about how he got into DragonBall, I’ve never heard that before. Always nice to reminisce about old times.
