If you’re reading this right now, we need your help! Our supposedly good friend and regular guest Maxy Barnard was so upset we hadn’t invited him on the podcast in a while that he flew from the U.K. to the U.S., traveled cross-country to kidnap us, stuffed us both in a large grocery store plastic bag, and trapped us in a closet! Colton tried chewing through the bag, but instead, he ended up choking on it like a pigeon and is slowly coughing and suffocating to death. I’ve only just managed to rip through and break down the closet door. Maxy confiscated our phones so we couldn’t call for help, but I’ve managed to hack his laptop so I’m messaging for help before he comes ba--AAACCCKKKK!!!!

Ha ha, don’t take what my good pal Sid said seriously. He doesn’t exist anymore. Neither of them do. But I promise you we’re all having a smashing good time anyways! We’re going to talk about some Jump Starts, namely the recent two, Momiji no Kisetsu and Invade You. About time too, considering the new round of Jump Starts have already started. Oh, those silly lazy Manga Mavericks boys. Why, if I’d been on the show earlier they would’ve never put off talking about these series for so long! It’s a gosh dang crime they didn’t shower Invade You with the praise it deserves - after all, it’s one of the best and funniest Jump Starts in a while! Those Weekly Manga Recap blokes don’t know what they’re talking about. Ha ha, I swear, one day they will PAY…for the officially licensed graphic novels because they will love the series! Ha ha, I certainly won’t have to INVADE YOUR homes to force you to read it like the Mav-er...it’s..because it’s a good comic! That’s it. I knew where I was going with that. I’m not crazy.

But yes, I’m excited to be on the show again! It’s been much too long. Far too long. But now, dear listeners, this podcast will prove why MaxyTheBee is MAXYTHEBEST!!
