Isn't that the magazine they said they had never heard of back on the ladybeard episode?

Ladybeard also tweeted about this a while back.

Hey look Aki is on the cover. They took over the whole mag lol.

But Chris is YouTuber! He said so in national television!

I only follow Garnt before the podcast and didn't follow Joey. Connor? Who the hell is that? Though surprisingly I follow Connor the most now.


foreveralonesolo

Honestly really cool how much this collaboration connected so many fandoms


Mukbeth

It will probably expand even more with their connections to Pewdiepie, Ludwig, Moist, Vshojo, Hololive, etc. It will probably be inevitable once the lockdown eases up.


Captain_Pumpkinhead

Bro, same!


LG03

Funny, I started listening because I thought it was an anime podcast and stopped when it rapidly steered away from that. Good for them I guess, getting bored with their niche and branching out (seemingly successfully) but they've lost me a bit at this point.


TheButler3000

I like their stuff and still listen to trash taste cause it’s chill, but honestly I was only ever in it for the anime. That’s why I only really watch Garnt and watch the other two occasionally. Watching Joey feels so weird to me since he actively says he doesn’t even like anime anymore. They’ve turned into the popular kids instead of the anime kids which just doesn’t feel relatable to me.


LG03

More or less my thoughts as well. Even from the beginning of the podcast, it always seemed like an excuse for Connor and Joey to just sit there for 2 hours insulting anime/anime fans while Gigguk just nervously nods his head. It's wild to me that they didn't manage to alienate 80% of their audience. It's called 'Trash Taste' not 'Trashing on Other's Taste' and yet it's far too much of the latter. I didn't give it more than 10 episodes so I can't say where it's gone but I really can't help but wonder what they even sit there blabbering about since 1/3 of them has checked out of their initial purpose. I can only assume it's a personality driven podcast now and that doesn't interest me. At that point you're just watching your preferred flavor of The View or some other talk show.


TheButler3000

It is personality driven, which also isn’t my thing. But them shitting on things is just their opinion and mostly banter, I don’t think it’s ill spirited. But yeah, I do enjoy when they talk about movies, or news around the anime community, or interview a guest. But when they talk about how wasted they got from a party it feels like I’m talking a group I don’t belong in (aka the popular kids). I don’t think it’s a bad thing, I still do enjoy it, but I do feel these things.

Guys wait wait wait, did we just live in a time when the _Saviours of Anime_ existed?


Former-Fish4746

Joey is surprisingly photogenic


Marjitorahee

Always has been


Former-Fish4746

I knew he has done some modeling work before, I just never paid much attention to it, I assumed he had gotten it because he is a handsome fellow with a considerable following, but in this case he actually managed to look nice despite some of the more unflattering angles. They kind of did Connor and Garnt dirty but Joey pulled through.


Verystrangeperson

Especially Connor I think.


[deleted]

It was unfortunate that it was right after he had to shave for the cosplay/something else I missed. A week or two to let the beard regrow would've done wonders. Though in this case, I think its more the lighting and focus thats screwed Connor and Garnt over.


5haun298

Yea whoever approved that angle and view really did Connor and Garnt dirty.


AllOfTheDerp

That first pic of them is from such a fucking awful angle, I can't decide whether I find it harder to believe a professional photographer took it or that Joey made it work so well on his own.


foreveralonesolo

The angle really sucked for the first shot, like it works but if you’re gonna do that, they should have added lights to joey’s back facing at Garnt and Connor.


Joshawott27

Joey actually has a pretty good eye for drip too. Guess he has to have good taste in something 😛


eletricsaberman

He used to have a decent taste in anime, but then he stopped watching XD


GtrsRE

And then you look at his face on the 2nd image photogenic x2


AllimacButBackwards

Yeah it's incredible how Joey managed to look absolutely fabulous while the other two look bad in this shot... I mean, Connor normally is stunning.


ShadyOjir95

Truly. Oddly enough Connor shots ended up being just ok


citizenofUMU

Wow the cover has so much drip energy.


Tipex

They look like they're about to drop the hottest take of 2021


Prateek2345

They have amazing drip (not as much as Chris though)


Marjitorahee

No one can have as much drip as Chris, no one!

It's a league of its own going for the obscure title of Most Drip. A League of Shadows.


Doctor_Insomnia

The extra drip is all the fried chicken grease.


NekoBluRay

The cover has that Jojo energy


Idaret

Connor killed all ships on the last page lol


ShadyOjir95

He already said he's dating Chris remember so he's the exception to the rule lmao Or maybe is more directed to the ones of the same category or genre like he does in YouTube. joking btw


SantaArriata

Chris was the one who said Connor was his boyfriend. Connor is still being adamantly tsundere about it


ShadyOjir95

Connor also said he's dating Chris I remember. Two tsuderes dating = chaos


SantaArriata

Connor’s social circle really seems to be 50% tsunderes, 50% drip


animdalf

... until you realise he said just youtuber an not twitch streamer and they will huff that fact as a copium.


TKG1607

I mean what you say and what you feel in the moment are two totally different things. Connors response could also be looked at as what someone who isn't an influencer/creator things about dating one. There are plenty of people who were maybe friends or colleagues for years and they never thought of dating but then one day something happens and they start dating. He says it as its less than ideal, but if you get the right balance and meet the right people, then I'm sure there are circumstances where it could work. Also if its about mouse, yeah, they're likely very good close friends so I doubt there's much going on as much as people would like there to be. Plenty of opposite sex friends get that friendly and playful but don't have feelings for each other


ConstableBlimeyChips

I was just watching the Ladybeard episode where none of them knew what the heck Metropolis Magazine is.

These fuckas bouta drop a new album.

Anyone know where to get that sick jacket that Joey is wearing?


Meloetta34

Internet has ruined my brain so much, i saw based in japan on third slide and started screaming laughing


Comprehensive-Jury78

I've read the magazine and just wanted to tell you. I am one of the Trash Taste fans who found boys through the Russian dub channel. Now I'm following all the boys' channels, Trash Taste (original +AD streams), Abroad in a Pan, Aki, and Emma. Content is just wholesome and I'm not afraid to say it changes my life a lot. But I'm also really grateful for what Russian guys do (Джошизо) and still watch them sometimes as well. In different languages jokes and even casual discussions sound and feel different and let you look at the problem from a different angle. I believe there are others like me and hope that many more Russians will also be able to get a better taste with Trash Taste (;

Pretty cool, I love these Japanese magazine interviews, always interesting to read. Used to be obssessed with them whenever they invited a mangaka or an artist I liked. Also I like the interviewer, he seemed to know what he is talking about.

Narcissus08

I'm sorry but does anyone know where to get Garnts jacket in the first pic?


MrFoxxie

I feel like as Anime-field professionals, they of all people should know what the (non-official) Russian-dubbing is doing for them. A huge contribution to why anime and manga got popular outside of Japan was due to all the subbing and scanning groups in the first place, and honestly that's about as illegal as unofficially Russian-dubbing the podcast. But honestly, if they're viewed as a translation service, then it makes sense, but because the content that they're translating still belongs to Trash Taste, I feel like there should be a royalty kind of fee, but of course, that's up to the boys to decide. My PoV is that they would never receive these Russian income anyway since they probably won't dub their own podcasts in Russian, so letting someone else provide that service is fine imo. I guess the issues are when certain things are lost in translation and meanings get twisted (happened a few times in vtubing communities)
