ome had Nero. The Aztecs had Cortez. Japan had it’s Fat Man. Throughout history, every great empire meets it’s end. And for Dai-Cast, that time is now. Welcome, friends, to the end of an era. An era marked by furious ratholes, meaningless banter, and the occasional nugget of real, informative content, all in the name of the education, elucidation, enlightnement, and mental emolument of the nipponistic hoi-polloi.
Join us then, for part one of the inevitable descent into greater obscurity, for “Dai-Cast, The Final: Part 2″.

Hey! The Beej rules. Please let him know that I never heard from him and I am worried that his e-mail was sent to my junkmail. Beej, e-mail me at hey(dot)cowan(at)yahoo(dot)ca if you get a chance.
Damn, I just found out about the Dai-Cast, the show is hilarious and I’m slowly working my way through the episodes.
