🏆 Crunchyroll Anime Awards Take Center Stage on Den of Otaku

In partnership with

As you’ve probably figured out by now through our sharing of shows like The Perfect Parfait and Does It Fly? — we love podcasts. We’ve even tried our hand at producing a few over the years! In the early days of Den of Geek, we had an after-show for Game of Thrones as well as one that followed along with The Walking Dead. Shortly after that, my colleague Dave Vitagliano and I did 100 episodes worth of Sci Fi Fidelity, a science fiction television discussion and interview podcast. Around that same time, we published Star Wars Blaster Canon, hosted by Star Wars experts.

More recently, we had our Marvel Standom and DC Standom podcasts, which dove deep into the worlds of both comic book movie franchises. Nowadays, you can find our paranormal pop culture show Talking Strange, our anime discussion Den of Otaku, and our gaming podcast POWER-UP on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever you listen. These days our shows include dynamic video content, but we still publish the audio for those who prefer it. In fact, some episodes of Talking Strange are only available that way!

And that’s not even mentioning all the great multimedia content we have on our YouTube channel, which is really an interview and feature show all on its own! Be sure to check it out!
