Please welcome back Alan (Kamen Rider Glover) to the show, as he joins Dan to talk about a PLETHORA of new Build scans, revealing new forms and characters, as well as that Heisei Generations FINAL trailer that’s been the talk of the town!
Mystery and plot kicks into high gear in Build 5 & 6 as we meet possibly the grossest character (Icky Teeth Man Part 2?), as well as the greatest character (noisy robot dragon boy)!
Continuing our ongoing speculation about the identities of the Build baddies, we’ve asked for YOUR theories in Listener Feedback!

Here we go again, kids! Amber (TokuSwag) forgot about her visit to Kamen Rider Black’s steakhouse when she was recently in Japan, so she’s back to tell Dan all about it! There have also been Build scans, possible rumors, toy reveals, and even Sentai trademarks to briefly touch upon!
Build 4 continues to ramp up the intrigue as we wonder what that hot cafe dad Souichi could possibly be plotting.
Finally, you have lots of tasty ideas in Feedback as we dream up delectable Rider Diner creations!

Faiz dips her toes into the Build water as she and Dan bring you a podcast that goes off the rails, even for us. No huge news stories, but lots of small stuff, so it’s time for a rapid-fire news roundup!
Our appreciation for our new friends deepens in Build 3, and you can never go wrong with tiny orange bird bullets.
It’s Feedback where we really get loopy. I guess your Fullbottle combos just really bring it out in us! There are a few choice phrases we’d love to bring up here… but they’re a bit risqué, so you’ll just have to hear for yourself.

Gel up your hair, and leave your fly unzipped, because Build episodes 1 & 2 are a crazy ride! We’ve already got our favorites, and there’s so much to speculate about (namely that smoky, leather chap, Night Rogue!)
We end with Feedback, and YOUR opinions of Build’s opening chapters, and we even hear from one particular supreme empress who is absent from this week’s podcast! *bunny emoticon*

Sadly, Dan & Faiz must bid farewell to Ex-Aid… for now. But before that, they also mark the passing of the Korean “tokusatsu” series, Legend Hero, as well as 1974’s Kamen Rider Amazon, which Dan has been watching.
It’s a packed Spoiler Train this week, as have some updates on that Ex-Aid follow-up trilogy coming next year, PLUS someone’s hacked the Build Driver, and we know dozens more best matches. They’re VERY entertaining.
Then it’s time to send Ex-Aid out in style as we break down episodes 44 & 45. There’s action, smiles, and tears. And it wouldn’t be fair if we didn’t let YOU in on the Ex-Aid finale celebration in Listener Feedback!

Fresh back from her recent trip to Japan, Amber (TokuSwag) is here to regale us with tales of her travels! Unfortunately, she caught a cold upon returning home, Dan’s allergies inexplicably got worse and worse throughout the podcast, and Amber’s landlord thought it was the PERFECT time rebuild the apartment downstairs, so PLEASE bear with us. :-P
We talk about *possible* future Ex-Aid stories (this news had was just being hinted at and not fully broken at the time of recording), as well as Amber’s anticipation for Kamen Rider Build.
Ex-Aid 43 brings us RIGHT to the edge of the finale, and offers up some heart-wrenching Taiga drama, but also fosters conversation about what could/should have been done with Nico.
And with Ex-Aid coming to an early conclusion, we ask about the ideal length of a Kamen Rider series in Listener Feedback.

Gamedeus makes an all-too-brief appearance in Ex-Aid 42, as Dan and Kiriya have a little slap-fest of their own.

The first chapter of the Kamen Rider W manga has been translated, and we touch very briefly on that (sans spoilers). And Ex-Aid: True Ending is out in Japan! What nuggets of Build/Ex-Aid goodness can we glean from that?
Ex-Aid 41 bids farewell… again… to that gorgeous Bugster of a man, Graphite, and we love up on the perfect double-act of Dan & Kiriya.

It’s basically Build Bonanza Part 2 as we spend just over an hour dissecting this week’s announcement of the Kamen Rider Build cast, theorize about the contents of the trailer, and gush about this year’s theme song! Rest assured, there is much ogling of the boys.
Ex-Aid 40 contains yet another resurrection, plus a team-up we didn’t expect. 555 episode 12 brings us one step closer to finding Kaixa, who’s sure to be the best character in the show… right?

Our excitement for Build continues to uh… build… as Dan & Faiz discover the initial creative staff behind the series as well as a few follow-up toy catalog scans.
Ex-Aid 39 takes a cruel turn as we say goodbye(?) to the floofiest Bugster to ever grace this Earth. And can you believe it?! We’re returning to our roots with Kamen Rider 555 episode 11! It’s been more than a full year, but it feels good to be home. Plus there’s an adorable dog!

Kamen Rider Build is revealed! This is bound to be our favorite podcast every year. There’s just so much to speculate about! That’s probably why we spend well more than half of the episode talking about it. Forms, suits, weapons, story details. They just dumped so much on us at once!
But in ADDITION to all that, Ex-Aid continues, as we make our way through episodes 37 & 38. There’s redemption, tears, possible new friendships blooming.
Then it’s back to more Build talk in Feedback. You’re just as excited as we are. If you know what an aglet is, do a dance!

They’ll battle the forces of Shocker, and we’ll discover a whole array of comical new kinks we didn’t know we had.
There’s news too! Rider has a new time slot, and what could that possibly mean? Plus, we go over a few last minute rumor morsels before Build is officially revealed, as well as that recently announced manga sequel to W. And we get FAR too excited about a mailman’s birthday. EEE!!!

Rumor Season continues! Faiz and Dan have learned a few more (POSSIBLE) tidbits about the next series, Kamen Rider Build, as well as some more glimpses of the Summer Ex-Aid movie.
You knew we’d be excited about the return of our dear departed bike in Ex-Aid 35, and we’re so so very close to finishing up Ghost with 45 & 46!
Before all that, talk a little about about Faiz’s E3-obsessed week, as well as Dan’s recent viewing of the Heisei Generations movie, and (far too briefly) Graphite’s bod!

Dan & Faiz have probably our biggest Spoiler Section yet, as we have all the “Build” rumors to speculate about, in addition to MORE Ex-Aid scans and summer movie info. Ex-Aid 33 & 34 are full of tears and betrayal, but there’s a hint of a beautiful yellow boy at the end! To round things off, we’ll discuss our listeners’ favorite Showa Riders.

Rider Love welcomes its first international guest! Dan is joined by Alan (no, not the takoyaki prince, but rather Kamen Rider (G)Lover).
It’s a light news week this week, mainly toys, which means we’ll get sidetracked a bit by Doctor Who and other geekery. But we’re very excited to dive into the latest two episodes of Ex-Aid (31 & 32) in which we learn the means by which our buddy “Nuevo Kuroto” has returned to us. We also welcome the return of another member of the Dan family and get lots of crackly Mountain Dew energy goodness! Rounding things out, we discuss your thoughts on foreign actors in Kamen Rider.

This week we witness the “Final Battle” between Emu and M in Ex-Aid 30, as well as welcoming back our favorite tight-pantsed psychopath! In Ghost 43 & 44, as we near the end, Onari begins to question his usefulness to the team, which makes for some VERY over-the-top and entertaining moments. Finally, in Feedback, we’ll discover what historical figures you would choose for your own personal Eyecon collection.

We try to work out the logistics of the recent “M” revelation in Ex-Aid 29, and watch as our friends in Ghost 41 & 42 have a Gramps-shaped revelation of their own. Wrapping things up, it’s all about music in Listener Feedback. Thank you, Rider Lovers, for an awesome first year, and here’s to many more years of silliness! <3

You know the drill by now. When Faiz and I haven’t talked for a while, things can get a little crazy. This week, it’s all about Taiga’s palm on Emu’s firm tush! But no, there’s lots of other stuff to talk about. There’s the fall of Nyaa, the first hints of the summer Ex-Aid movie, and some sparkling, delicious new Mountain Dew flavored scans! In Ep Discussion, it’s all about Ghost this week (39 & 40), and we have some opinions on Dark Necrom P. Plus there’s some awkward body-swapping and movie tie-ins. Feedback is quite girthy because everyone loves talking about hopes and possibilities for the next series. Gashit!

There’s actor news, new toy announcements, and as usual, another round of Ex-Aid scans to drool over. In episode discussion, Nico finally gets her moment to shine (Ex-Aid 27), and Poppy has a pretty rough day (Ex-Aid 28).

Don’t worry! Dan & Faiz are back to talk Kamen Rider. No more Masked Rider… at least for a year. It’s time for the Spring KR/Sentai crossover with Ex-Aid 24. The cross-over wasn’t much, but it also brings an end to the first half of Ex-Aid, and we love every minute of it (especially Ren!). In Ghost 38, we celebrate Takeru’s many dads and the resurgence of the best Ghost ship. There’s an April Fools roundup in news, along with even more Ex-Aid scans. And finally, we have a mammoth feedback section talking all about YOUR fantasy Kamen Sentai GoRider teams. Ore wa STRONGEST!

Speaking of Beautiful (Monsta X *cough cough*) it’s idol week here on Rider Love, and that means Akari’s joining a Jpop group in Ghost 36 & 37! We also get your feedback on Ex-Aid, taste some possible yummy sushi-man rider, and much more!
