After a very long hiatus, the Chainsaw Buffet guys head to Anime Weekend Atlanta and get an interview with Lucas Leverett, the chairman for Middle Tennessee Anime convention. We discuss the state of the anime industry, what it takes to run a convention, and GMX–the Geek Media Expo that MTAC will be presenting the weekend of October 2-4 in Nashville.

Possibly the single largest guest list we’ve ever had. The members of The Man Power, The Notorious MSG, and The Slants sit down with John, Charlie, and Dylan at Middle Tennessee Anime Convention to talk about their music, anime, and other important matters.

Charlie, Dylan, and John sit down for a few minutes and discuss driving, press passes, and almost dying in a tornado. Fun times… fun times.

Catching up. John and 15-year-old anime women. Legal woes of pix messaging. WoW jumps the shark? Everyone but Dylan agrees: Fallout 3 and Fable II suck. Tequila worm suckers. Wasabi tastes like bee stings. Second Life has a point? CAT EDIT! Playstation Home: beware of gay German dudes. Another round of XBox 360 vs. PS3. XNA: neat idea, but lots of crap. Porn spam on the work phone. Torgo is on vacation. Affirmative Action patch notes. Outliers.

Yes, it’s late and the audio quality likely leaves something to be desired, but here it is: our episode recorded at Kajonk-A-Con 2008 in Knoxville, TN. We start out with our live podcast (where Chad drags in hapless congoers for witty repartee), and finish up with our interview with Damian Zannini, the organizer of KAC.

The Best Buy Incident. yourmomssexy@chainsawbuffet.com. Dylan fails at guerilla marketing. John on the First Amendment: “what the hell is your problem, motherf@#$er?” Sow the seeds of chaos! Most misleading coupon EVAR. Venom energy drink: it’s a can that opens like a bottle! John is President John Henry Eden. I’ve got to go put a gun in my mouth now… I’m everything I hate. Bacteria porn. Eat more turducken.

Activision sucks! Drink Moxie or I’ll f-ing kill you. We’ll all be dead soon. I was a dumb, dumb child. Candy corn soda is liquid Rock Revolution. We don’t have listeners. PODCAST@CHAINSAWBUFFET.COM. Mike’s done with rhythm games. Honest Bob and the Factory-to-Dealer Incentives. Dead Space. Fallout 3. Fable II. Jen just killed the podcast. Nathan’s cell phone. In the recession, there is no place for novelty soda. Folklore. Little Big Planet. Valkyria Chronicles. Cancelling World of Warcraft accounts. The Cloud–it’s magic.

The crew plans out a cheesy home horror movie they’re going to film the week before Halloween. “We typically don’t script at all–we just do the general outline and ad lib.” Mike’s ninja movies. Bastardized Guitar Hero controllers. Voltron versus monster. Video podcasts? Scary Movie 4. More railing against Blue Dragon. Mana Energy Drink still tastes terrible.

On a special two-part episode of the Chainsaw Buffet Podcast, we travel to Anime Weekend Atlanta to talk with The Man Power (http://www.myspace.com/themanpower) and Simon Young of The Slants (http://www.theslants.com/) about their music, bands, and interests (including, of course, anime). Having seen their shows and met them at MTAC this year, there were already some big fans among the Chainsaw Buffet crew.
Hailing from Nashville, the Man Power is anything but country. In fact, if you said that to their face, I’m pretty sure they’d melt your face off with their killer otaku-flavored rock stylings, and then blow your mind with their pandemonium-inducing performances on stage. Kneel before the awesomeness that is the Man Power!!

By Chad’s Dylan’s logic, we should shut down Chainsaw Buffet. Dylan breaks his caffeine fast. URNATION. Peelander Z coffee. Transformers Animated. Optimus Prime is not a firetruck nor is he a f**king gorilla. Warhawk: buy it for the Bluetooth headset. Burnout Paradise. EA, why do you love the terrorists? More Zune talk. Alestorm: pirate metal. Amazon MP3 rocks, iTunes sucks. The Christmas clock. Dylan sucks at the musical taste. Mike explains the stock market and economic crisis. Breast cancer awareness month. “I wish I had had a cool type of cancer–one that people like.” The pink ribbon mafia. Should we do a cancer podcast? Pan’s Labyrinth.
