| 6/27/26 | June 25, 2026 - Season 13 finale | JR and Nef present the final podcast of Season 13 before the show goes on summer hiatus. On this podcast we salute our mascot Yumemi Butai on her fourth anniversary, and read notes posted by Yumemi cosplayers MikaZelda and Kessho-Cho for the occasion. JR recaps his trip to Virginia to meet with Mika and Bri (and take Mika's Yumemi photos). Besides the usual sports chatter, notably the ongoing World Cup, they talk about the early release of "Smoking Behind the Supermarket With You" on Crunchyroll. Nef then goes through his manga library, enough to suggest a couple of titles to JR, including "At Home with a Girl in Her Cute Pajamas."The Extreme Anime Radio Podcast brings you news, information, insights and commentary into the world of Anime and Japanese culture.

| 1/31/25 | January 29, 2025 | After multiple issues that have been finally fixed (we think), the Extreme Anime Radio Podcast returns with JR and Nef. JR explains the multiple software and hardware issues that have happened on his end in the last week which have had an impact on our streams. XAR thanks everyone for their patience as they worked through all of the recent issues. This week's topics include a dark moment in the recent Ace Attorney streams, the NFL, a new Yokozuna in town in professional sumo, the new Sailor Moon North American Tour, and reminiscing about "Your Anime and J-Pop Radio Station" which turns 24 this week!

| 1/10/25 | January 8, 2025 - Season 11 Premiere | Season 11 of the Extreme Anime Radio podcast kicks off with JR and Nef joined by Liz, Bri and Karam. We discuss football playoff fever and recent developments north of the border, before turning our attention to Japan and a big announcement shared by JR and Bri. We encountered some audio issues during the recording that we believe are attributed to both OBS and Discord; some problems were edited out of the early part of the broadcast, but there are some minor issues later on that we had to leave in because that's when we got to the big news. Apologies in advance; hopefully we can try to work around the issues for next time.

JR salutes Mika's Girl Scout Troop that is working on a journey related to media before diving in with Nef to topics including the "golden" kanji (or Japanese character) of the year, Japanese New Year's traditions and random foods, Yakuza Zero, The Game Awards and thoughts on Balatro, and the upcoming Year of the Snake. JR is also reminded that he may need to ask Santa for more computer resources, as evidenced by Nef's "robotic voice" that once again had to be edited out of the final recording.

Topics include opinions on the recent Yakuza Zero return streams (and whether or not there's really a connection between the game and Sailor Moon), baseball winter meetings, and the return of Shampoo to the Ranma 1/2 reboot... whom JR, for some reason, calls Spaghetti. The topic then turns to the backlog on everyone's Crunchyroll watch lists. Please note that a portion of the podcast has been edited out due to a temporary recording issue.

On this podcast episode we dive into the issues with the release and subsequent review bombing of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. We also see what's going on in the land of the rising sun, including Sumo tournament updates and the latest in food culture... this time involving pizza and volcanoes! The gang also share what they've been watching in Anime, with mentions of the new Rurouni Kenshin, the rebooted Ranma 1/2, Dandadan and Moriarty the Patriot. We also present on the video stream a toy train set, which Liz has dubbed "Train Simulator Beta."
