Sinopsis
Benel Germosen (Talking Smark podcast, Harlem Comedy Festival) and Lawson Leong (Nice to Meet You comedy special) have a hypothesis. Naruto is the WWE of anime. What does that mean? That it's simultaneously the best and worst anime of all time. To test their theory, they have submitted to watch season of Naruto, Naruto Shippuden and Boruto in chronological order. What you're listening to is an exploration into the world to Naruto and anime from the point of view of two New York comedians. So sit back, relax, practice your ninjutsu and scream "(Da)ttebayo!" at the top of your lungs cos' we're Talking Naruto.

Episode 296 - 297: All Are Commodities Under Capitalism

Episode 288 - 289: You do jobs, Omoi?
28/04/2022 Duración: 39minCos' I don't do jobs! This episode has the Boyz talk about a two-episode stretch focusing on the Seven Swordsmen of the mist arch. In the first ep, we meet the twin threats of Jinpachi and Kushimaru as they face Kakashi and Guy. In the second ep, Omoi gets over his social anxiety to battle the lightning blade Ringo! Both solid enough eps but very clearly time-wasters during the Great Ninja War arch.
-
Episode 286-287: A pointless flashback episode
19/04/2022We get a big fat flashback episode that stops the momentum dead as we see the first meeting of the Raikage and Tsunade. Clearly, this episode was supposed to be three and cut down into two, because everything is hand-waved at the end and ultimately this was a pointless waste of everyone's time.
