The main feature of this week’s podcast is a chat about spears, lots of spears, and the situation with the DVD and Blu-ray releases of The Avengers/Avengers Assemble in the UK, which brings in studios seemingly not caring about fans, other times the UK has been fudged over releases, how the BBFC has sometimes helped with said fudging, and mentions of certain 18 rated animes or two..
