Ok listen I'd like to tell you that's what happens, but we DO get to discuss some Season 2 Fun Facts, Simon's baby being terrified of Lord Zedd, and why you should always wear protection when trying to put a Halloween costume on a kitten.

Join us and our new vocally Non-American friend Lau as we embark on a discussion of Power Rangers' most Culturally Insensitive if not downright racist episode yet. We discuss the shows wildly misplaced ideas of homogonous "Asian-ness", Honor as some kind of Far East Street Cred Currency, and how dang near everyone involved in the show, including the Japanese production company Toei and even Rita, an evil space witch not from earth, somehow manage to go off the racist deep end
