Pony 411

We've hit retirement age on Pony 411! This week in the news: we have details of upcoming comics, new Rainbow Rocks songs, new writers for season 5 of FiM, and 2nd MLP soundtrack hitting services beyond iTunes and no one noticing. Take note, pony news sites! After that, Alca7raz and Nemesis have a discussion some of you may not agree with. They think there are way too many pony conventions. They explain why, and what they think will happen in the future. See if you agree! After all that, they conclude with some fan content. Listen in! Show Notes: http://pony411.libsyn.com/shownotes

Episode 64 is here! This week, we have a large amount of news to talk about! A lot of it comes from San Diego Comic-Con, and it's big. Season 5 information, big. Plus we have a little convention news, some merchandise, and some really important news regarding artists. After that, Nemesis and Alca7raz found horror. They watched "The Princess Promenade" from G3. They seem to have come out of it with their sanity intact, but who knows? Listen in as they tell you why it's bad. They then cleanse themselves with a review of Friends Forever #7, plus the return of fan content. Enjoy! Show Notes: http://pony411.libsyn.com/shownotes

After a week away, we're back! And good heavens, there is a lot of news! We attempt to tackle it, including a phony, SDCC, new Funko ponies, and Rainbow Rocks getting a pretty meaty synopsis. After all that, Alca7raz and Nemesis talk about "A Brony Tale." Just what did they think of the newly released documentary? And of course, they compare it to "Bronies." There's no way to get around that. Plus, they wrap up the episode with a brief review of issue #21 of the My Little Pony comic. Because they have no fan content this week. But you should tune in anyway! Show Notes: http://pony411.libsyn.com/shownotes

Here we are, the third and final part of our special Everfree Northwest episode! And we're back to the normal acoustics of an episode! Hooray!

We once again go back to the past on Pony 411, this time to somewhere... crazier. But first, we have some news, including pets for Legends of Equestria, massive plushies, and Youtube's Content ID system being overzealous. Again. But in this week's discussion, it's 2011, and Nemesis and Alca7raz talk about "Lesson Zero." Why? Because Nemesis really likes this episode! Plus, he feels as if it's important to the show (and the fandom) as a whole. They also have a comic to review, a winner to reveal, and some fan content to babble about. So sit back and listen in!

This week on Pony 411, we have a book review! But first, there's a lot of news to cover, including a fan-made card game hitting final release on their core deck, more merchandise news than is healthy, comic stuff, and much more. Nemesis and Alca7raz then talk about a book they've read recently, called "The Journal of the Two Sisters!" You may have heard of it. Anyway, they start with a brief spoiler-free review, and they also tell you how to win a copy (you have to listen in to find out!). After that, they go straight into spoiler territory, so skip over 17:17 to 43:12 to avoid spoilers! Then they wrap it up with some fan content, after it being missing last week. So tune in! Show Notes: http://pony411.libsyn.com/shownotes

We look towards the future this week on Pony 411! But first, we have some news to cover.

After all that, Alca7raz and Nemesis decide to abandon the past for now, and talk about season 5! Just what do they want to see? What do they not want to see? And are 26 episodes enough for everything? Tune in to find out! Show Notes: http://pony411.libsyn.com/shownotes

On this week's episode of Pony 411, we have something quite old. But we first have a lot of news to cover, including the return of Super Smash Ponies, some new Funko figures, a business dispute, and more! After that, Nemesis and Alca7raz had a blast from the past in the form of "Rescue at Midnight Castle!" Yes, they went there. Just how do they react to it? Plus, they have issue 19 of the MLP comic to review, and follow that up with some fan content. Sit back and enjoy the show! Show Notes: http://pony411.libsyn.com/shownotes

This week on Pony 411: We have a significant amount of news! There's the usual con news, Mane 6 is now a company, and the fan animation "Fall of the Crystal Empire" has released! Plus a lot more! After that, lacking a new episode, Alca7raz and Nemesis talk about an old one instead. Alca7raz chose "Hurricane Fluttershy" this week, and they'll see how it holds up, plus they'll connect it to later episodes in the series. They also have a new comic to review, plus they wrap it up with some fan content. Tune in! There are a few seconds of loudness at 22:14. So you may want to turn down your speakers/headphones. Sorry about that! Show Notes: http://pony411.libsyn.com/shownotes

Season 4 is over, but we're not done! We kick off the episode with the usual Quick Hits. Quick Hits like a slew of announcements from BUCK, Daring Do book covers, and a little bit about season 5. Plus quite a bit more. Nemesis and Alca7raz then look back on season 4 in general. The best episodes, the worst, songs, animation, and much more! It's then wrapped up with some fan content, including 3 songs and 2 fanfics! Welcome to the hiatus, everyone. Show Notes: http://pony411.libsyn.com/shownotes

On this episode of Pony 411, we have quite a long discussion! But first, we have some news, including cons, plushies, and a potential Equestria Girls TV series. Oh, and another piece of news that is awesome. But it will also leave us waiting. Possibly longer than you might think. After all that, there's still something else to talk about: The finale! Yes, "Twilight's Kingdom" aired. And it was glorious. Nemesis and Alca7raz talk about all the big things, and the little things. So tune in and listen to them gush over it! Show Notes: http://pony411.libsyn.com/shownotes

It's time for more Pony 411! This week, there is way less news than on the previous few episodes, much to our hosts' relief. But it does include quite a bit of con news, some plushies from 4DE, and new info about the finale! After the quick hits, Alca7raz and Nemesis talk about "Equestria Games!" It's very cringe-worthy. The episode, that is. But not in terms of quality. Just listen in. Plus, they wrap it up with some fan music and a fanfic. Nailed it! Show Notes: http://pony411.libsyn.com/shownotes

It's time for episode 52! And despite the fact that we only had one week of news to cover, there's almost as much as last week! There's the usual con news, some new merch (some from Funko and 4DE!), a new soundtrack release, and more! Afterwards, Nemesis and Alca7raz talk about "Inspiration Manifestation!" They weren't looking forward to this because of Spike, but did it manage to impress them anyway? And there's Rarity acting even crazier than usual. Nemesis then has a short review of My Little Investigations, and they wrap it up with some fan content. So grab your favorite drink, relax, and listen in!

We're back after 2 weeks! Because of that, we have a lot of news to go over! News like BUCK announcements, new books, new toys, and some information from BABSCon! Plus more! After that, Alca7raz and Nemesis talk about "Trade Ya." It's another ensemble episode, and there's quite a bit to discuss! Finally, they wrap it up with a brief talk about issue 4 of the Micro-Series comics. No fan content this week, it will return in episode 52.

This podcast, this ridiculous little podcast has finally made it to 50 episodes. We celebrate in the best way, by gushing about ponies! But first, we have a few Quick Hits, including a bit of con news, some details about "Rainbow Rocks," and the synopses for the season 4 finale. Oh boy. After all that, the gushing begins! Nemesis and Alca7raz talk about "Testing, Testing, 1, 2, 3." And the have a lot to say! So much, that they had to cram the music and fanfics into the last 10 minutes. Buckle up, it's a long ride.

Episode 48 is here, and it bring a lot of content with it!

After all that, Nemesis and Alca7raz talk about "For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils" at length. How did the episode fare in their minds? They also have issue 17 of the official MLP comic to talk about, which kicks off a new story arc. Of course, they finish off with some fan music and a fanfic, but not before drawing another 2 names for the giveaway! So tune in! Show Notes: http://pony411.libsyn.com/shownotes (episode 48)
