Ultra Podcast Z 93 (Quarantine Blues 3 w/ Molly) | Productivity, Food Adventures, YouTubers, More!4/9/2020 Live Broadcast:
April 7, 2020 6:00 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel Konaru Molly Description: Ultra Podcast Z (and most of the rest of the country) is still in quarantine (and will be for the foreseeable future) and even though we said we'd return to more structured content we decided to continue the "Quarantine Blues" series though this one DID have more structure and featured very little Animal Crossing! Rubi was supposed to join us for this one and unfortunately did not but Molly popped in uber last minute and we still put on a good show! We started by talking about the strains of being productive during quarantine and what we're doing to keep us busy which quickly segwayed into some "food adventures" we're having cooking from home and (apparently) baking bread. Konaru was actually the only one who is truly being productive (trying to learn Japanese) and going on food adventures (baking bread) but we still covered a lot of ground discussion-wise! We then dove into some of our favorite YouTubers and some of the TV shows and movies we're watching. There was a nice deviation into the odd Hong Kong movie "The Untold Story" and after discussing some other shows and cool streaming services, we moved on to our regular weekly randomness as well as a big discussion as to why the new crop of online conventions are pretty much a waste of time and energy. Lots to see here and get ready for more Quarantine Blues soon! Stay healthy and take care of each other!

Ultra Podcast Z 92 (Quarantine Blues 2 w/ melancholiaah) | Storytime, ACNH, Furry Fandom, Randomness4/1/2020 Live Broadcast:
March 31, 2020 6:00 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel Konaru melancholiaah Description: Ultra Podcast Z (and most of the rest of the country) is still in quarantine (and will be for the foreseeable future) and we decided to throw together another random episode as we have been mad obsessed with Animal Crossing: New Horizons as well as generally trying to stay sane when all semblance of a schedule falls away. Joining us for this week's randomness is melancholiaah! (AKA Maxine) She's been away from our show since the Halloween specials, but we wanted to sit down with her and discuss how we're all surviving this current health crisis and there was a lot to go over. As you'd imagine there was a lot of Animal Crossing to discuss and we even streamed a bit of Konaru's island and had it open to anyone who wanted to stop by. (Something we may continue in future episodes) In between ACNH talks though, Max shared all the things that she was forced to cancel due to the current situation as well as to why there aren't any new Toad Sings videos in the pipeline. We discussed a few movies and series that we're watching/have watched, including "Tiger King" and "The Flu" and more. We touched a bit on furries towards the end and there was more all throughout that has to just be listened to understand! Check out Max's post on Konaru's bulletin board and we hope that you enjoy this random episode as we plan to return to more structures ones starting next week.

Ultra Podcast Z 91 (Quarantine Blues w/ Molly & Racheal) | Storytime, ACNH, Randomness, And More!3/25/2020 Live Broadcast:
March 24, 2020 7:00 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel Konaru Molly Racheal Description: Ultra Podcast Z (and most of the rest of the country) is currently in quarantine and we're trying our best to survive not only the health crisis, but also the monotony that life at home can lead to. Thankfully we have Animal Crossing: New Horizons and more to occupy us! We originally were going to discuss ways to get through the quarantine by keeping yourself occupied with many free/reduced resources and sources of entertainment, but we QUICKLY found ourselves derailed into mostly randomness and storytime. It's also worth noting that this is TECHNICALLY our 100th Episode as we often have "half" episodes that fill up the numbering. Anyhow, we also had Konaru's ACNH island live during the podcast and it was visited by a few of our viewers and we might do that again so be sure to tune in for that! Besides Animal Crossing though, we also hit upon weird topics like our nerdy tendencies and "what kind" of nerd we are. The storytime got weirder as we also hit upon some of Molly's childhood trauma regarding weird dreams and some locker room stories from Middle and High School, a truly random episode. We were a full cast though, having a great time, so hopefully you enjoy this one as well and let it take you away from our current situation. Stay healthy and take care of each other!

Ultra Podcast Z 90 (Animal Crossing w/ Callie) | Games, Memes, Isabelle, AC: New Horizons, More!3/18/2020 Live Broadcast:
March 17, 2020 7:00 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel Konaru Callie Description: Ultra Podcast Z loves Animal Crossing and with the release of "New Horizons"... on the horizon, we decided to have a special episode dedicated to just that! We had a funny intro where we went a little too far into anti-Chris Hansen/TCAP nonsense but after some storytime we took a deep dive into the topic and had a great time with it! Besides talking about the games rather in depth, with a special focus on AC New Leaf, we also did a live reaction to Callie's Isabelle cosplay video (a cosplay she wore on the show) and looked at some Animal Crossing memes! Callie was a little under the weather, as was Manuel, so we're a little off at points here but we held it together for over two hours and came to the conclusion that no one really played Animal Crossing City Folk for the Wii and that Isabelle might not actually be a bell. Lots of randomness wrapped this one up, but do check it out and let us know what Animal Crossing you started with and what you're most looking forward to in New Horizons! Also, be sure to check out Callie's custom AC stamps! They're awesome! Watch and enjoy!

March 13, 2020 7:00 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel Konaru Nestor Molly Description: Ultra Podcast Z has a long running tradition of hosting podcast episodes on every Friday The 13th possible, so we decided to do this one based on our past retail/service experiences! Nestor joined an A-to-J podcast for the first time in years and made his UPZ debut! Molly also joined in very randomly (completely unscheduled) and added her own share of stories. After a short bit of randomness at the beginning we moved onto the main topic and even though we started with some of the most disgusting stories we had (retail bathroom stories) we moved onto lighter fare. If you've ever wanted to hear retail horror stories from Subway, Party City, Sears, Macy's, Gamestop, and The "Dessert Factory" you're in for a treat! Not all was negative and we managed to share a couple fun stories and made sure to reiterate that most customers are actually pretty nice. To everyone who may notice it, we DID indeed misspell "Retail Horror Stories" as "Retail Horror Stroies" and our audience DID try to tell us many times. RIP. Anyway, watch and enjoy and if you happen to be Cinderella then you better watch out!

Ultra Podcast Z 89 (48G Updates w/ Jasmine) | CV Updates, Piracy Debate, BNK48 & AKB48 News, More!3/11/2020 Live Broadcast:
March 10, 2020 7:45 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel Konaru Jasmine Description: Ultra Podcast Z had a bit of a late start with this episode and it was almost cancelled more than once before going live! Having put so much work into the planning and organizing of the show though, we decided to soldier on and even though we had a shaky start (With Jasmine both coming in late and being literally in the middle of a cosplay creation!) we had a lot of fun with this one! The opening topics took a nice chunk of the runtime and we took another look at the ever-developing C-Virus (Censored for the sake of YouTube), a BL manga writer's takes on scanlations, the "gamer bed", and the IM@S seiyuu who came out as a transgender man. Our main topic was 48G updates as there has been a LOT to talk about especially in the world of Overseas 48 Groups. We spent a good chunk looking at BNK48 but we took a glance at just about all the others too. We planned to talk a bit more about the JP 48 groups but we kinda ran out of time and we'll probably save that for another day. Anyhow, watch and enjoy!

Ultra Podcast Z 88 (Randomness w/ Ren) | Storytime, CV Reactions, Curry House, Voting, Bones, More!3/4/2020 Live Broadcast:
March 3, 2020 7:00 PM PST Hosts: Manuel Konaru Ren Description: Ultra Podcast Z skipped a week but we came back with a fun, slightly random episode. This week marks the return of Ren for another round of drinking nonsense with Konaru eventually joining in a little ways into the show. After a lot of storytime involving Ren's recent viral post and more, we move into some of the bigger topics such as the recent reactions to the Coronavirus around the world. That's basically YouTube suicide though so we spoke about it mostly in code. We then covered the closing down of Curry House, Texas conventions stepping up with guests, and even a touch of voting nonsense. For a nice shakeup we get to experience Ren's bone collection and that was a special treat. Originally, this was going to be an episode where we went down some Reddit Rabbit Holes as our main topic, but we decided not to go with that and basically just rapid fire went through them. This one closes with a long 40 minutes of randomness that actually turned into a couple new topics so be sure to keep watching!

Ultra Podcast Z 87 (Sonic The Hedgehog Nonsense) | Movie, Games, Cartoons, Memes, Rainfurrest, More!2/19/2020 Live Broadcast:
February 18, 2020 7:00 PM PST Hosts: Manuel Konaru Description: Ultra Podcast Z had a hiccup of a Sonic Special but we had a lot of fun pulling it off! Originally supposed to have featured both Teepu (who was STILL going to show up during the show but never did) and three hosts who had all seen the movie (Teepu had though RIP) but we still had a lot to talk about! We opened with random Retail Recap Nonsense and some recent Idol Graduations just as a nice warm up before we dived into it. We covered all things Sonic in somewhat of a haphazard way, but we discussed the new movie, the old movie, the TV shows, the games, and the memes. We even decided to bring furries into the mix and discussed Rainfurrest (which we misspelled on the podcast proper... RIP) and our hopes to have a furry podcast soon! Anyhow, enjoy and be sure to let us know what you thought of the new Sonic The Hedgehog movie and your thoughts/memories of the franchise!

Ultra Podcast Z 86.5 (Skribblio Randomness w/ Jordan) | Valentine's Day, Dragonball Evolution, More!2/12/2020 Live Broadcast:
February 11, 2020 7:00 PM PST Hosts: Manuel Konaru Jordan Description: Ultra Podcast Z took a slight break this week with a fun little Skribblio stream with no script or outline of any sorts. As such, it can be a little random and might not be for all of our normal viewers, but we had a lot of fun here and we think you will too! Besides our games of Skribblio (best of three btw!) we discussed things like our upcoming Valentine's Day plans, "Magibon" and how the early internet was basically one big mistake, Paul Reubens' odd case of being caught "helping himself" in an adult theater, and whether all the "bad" live action adaptations are REALLY bad or not. The latter mainly regarding the upcoming Sonic The Hedgehog movie that we plan on all catching! Anyhow, we hope that you enjoy this slight break in our normal schedule (as opposed to us just taking a week off) so please let us know what you think!

Ultra Podcast Z 86 (Ecchi Nonsense w/ Haro & Weston) | Anime, Joker JAV, Hentai, Shinjuku, and More!2/5/2020 Live Broadcast:
February 4, 2020 7:00 PM PST Hosts: Manuel Konaru Haro Weston Description: Ultra Podcast Z is ecchi! Haro and Weston joined us for a night of ecchi nonsense where we discussed all everything from our first exposure to hentai, what some of our favorites are, awkward stories and more! Along with these personal anecdotes, we discussed "Interspecies Reviewers" being removed from Funimation Now, The Joker JAV parody movie starring Yui Hatano, and the... "kitty" themed idol group "Make It"! With some randomness about our weekend that involved a projectile-vomiting Tinkerbell Between all this, we also discussed how to travel safely in Shinjuku, so you're welcome in advance! . There is a lot of fun nonsense here and it was a rather chill take on a deep topic! If you have any similar ecchi stories to share, be sure to do so in the comments!
