Episode 14: Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans w/ Nami
Nami returns to Beautiful Robot Odyssey to discuss Iron-Blooded Orphans, a show about giant robots and the sad children who pilot them! Along the way, we discuss Gundam's use of the 'Char Clone' trope, whether or not Newtypes are bullshit, and how much Ethan dislikes Gundam Wing.

Episode 13: Avengers vs. X-Men w/ Derek
Who would win in a fight: Captain America or Cyclops? Trick question--they wouldn't fight, because Captain America is cool and would help Cyclops fight against mutant oppression! At least, that's Ethan's take; the Marvel comic event Avengers vs. X-Men begs to differ. Hear Ethan and returning guest Derek discuss this weird 2012 event series!
Episode 12: Monster Taming w/ J
Ethan and guest J, of Variant Ventures fame, discuss games in the monster tamer genre: everything from obscure series like Pokemon and Digimon to timeless classics like Monster Seed and Jade Cocoon. Give it a listen!
Find J on Twitter at @VariantjJ2 and visit Variant Ventures at various cool places online!
Also, yeah, this one came out super late and the edit is sorta rough. Apologies, it's been a heck of a month. Listen anyway, though, because J is delightful!
Episode 11: Mass Effect Trilogy w/ Caitlin
Ethan and Caitlin revisit their love of Mass Effect in anticipation the Legendary Edition remaster. Also: schnauzers!
Episode 10: Power Armor w/VariantRory
Ethan discusses the history of Power Armor with guest Rory from Variant Ventures. Which really means that Rory gives a lot of erudite analysis on the topic while Ethan breaks in to ramble about Gundam a lot. It's a good time!
Find Rory on Twitter at @RoryVariant, and check out the rest of Variant Ventures there, too! Better yet, visit them on their website, and be sure to stop by the Artisans Guild while you're there!
Episode 9: The Thing & Carrion w/ Derek
This episode features returning guest Derek, who brought along two topics to discuss: classic 1982 horror masterpiece The Thing (Ethan's favorite horror movie) and the excellent video game Carrion. WARNING: Do not listen if you are averse to dog-beasts and/or slimy red tentacles!
Episode 8: All Systems Go w/ Nami
Ethan talks with artist and TTRPG creator NamiNomi about her upcoming mecha game, All Systems Go! Other topics of discussion include Gundam, how to brew potions, Gundam, model kits, and Mobile Suit Gundam.

Episode 5: Horizon: Zero Dawn w/ Caitlin
Caitlin returns to the podcast to discuss one of her favorite games, Horizon: Zero Dawn.
Episode 4: Jedi: Fallen Order w/ Derek
Ethan and returning guest Derek talk about EA's Jedi: Fallen Order. This one's got all the hits: a large bird; a second, more unsavory large bird; lightsaber feet; and more. Note: This episode had some audio issues, leading to low-quality audio for Ethan. Apologies.
Episode 3: Captain Marvel (2019) w/Caitlin
Ethan sits down with his wife to talk about the MCU film Captain Marvel. Also, the X-Men come up a lot, which... you should probably get used to that. Ethan really like the X-Men.
Episode 2: The Outer Worlds w/ Derek
Ethan and his friend Derek discuss the sci-fi RPG The Outer Worlds. That's Outer WORLDS, not Wilds. It's an important difference! I mean, both of them are fine, but only one of them gets talked about on this episode.
Episode 1: An Introduction
Host Ethan introduces himself, talks a bit about his sci-fi interests, and describes the format of the show.
