Plushies, the sofa, the Nanoleafs, the Shenron on the wall. Then Joey asked who the room is actually for. We brought Joe Grind back for the panel half of Episode 15. First, Adrian from Sevenoaks told his boss he likes anime and now the man will not stop firing Kamehamehas across the office, and for the first time in the show's history we could not solve it. Then the big one: is tech moving too fast for the average person to follow? We get into want versus need, buying on FOMO, why Blockbuster lost to Netflix, obsolete iPhones and the security risk nobody reads about, and the fact that a robot vacuum might be the best adult purchase any of us has made. Finally we build the Nani Talks Fun House from scratch, and it turns into something else entirely: are you building a room for yourself, or a room for the people you invite round? This is Nani Talks, the only anime podcast from the culture. CHAPTERS 00:00 The dilemma: my boss will not stop doing the Kamehameha 01:33 Boundaries: you opened the door, now deal with it 02:17 Is the manager actually the bigger anime fan? 03:37 The verdict: sorry Adrian, there is no solution 06:51 The first dilemma we could not solve 07:05 Talking point: is it too hard to keep up with tech? 07:23 Go at your own pace, nobody needs an AI fridge 08:52 Blockbuster to Netflix: what complacency costs 09:16 3D TVs and the tech that came and went 10:11 The Roomba is the best adult purchase ever 12:08 What about AI, and how far do you actually need to go 15:02 Obsolete iPhones, security risk and the upgrade trap 16:47 Buying on FOMO and buying what your friends have 19:48 You cannot keep up, and that is fine 20:40 Photography, old tech and what actually enhances your life 21:26 When work forces the new tech on you 22:02 Let's build the Nani Talks Fun House 22:31 Plushies, a comfy sofa and Joey's snack setup 23:17 Nanoleafs, the NES, the Mega Drive and the 90s setup 24:15 Is the room for you or for everyone else? 25:33 Comfort or pride: what the collection actually does 26:37 The Shenron piece, the Obito mask and plasterboard fear 28:14 Straw Hats in the room, and why Hisoka is not invited GUEST Joey's Fun House YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UC24zcu9DnWbFSRaPA3XBU_Q Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joeysfunhouse TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@joeysfunhouse Music: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4e8opWGsP5Yvc80ThFWoMW Nani Talks Produced by Naniverse. #NaniTalks #JoeGrind #OnePiece TC The Vision: http://instagram.com/tcthevision The Quantum One: http://instagram.com/the_quantum_one Slick: http://instagram.com/slickcrafted Junior: http://instagram.com/juniorox_ Tun3s: http://instagram.com/_stay_tun3d Jazzy: http://instagram.com/_jazmine4 Producer | Director: http://instagram.com/theblackkstar Sound Design: http://instagram.com/kayper.d.w Visual Architect: http://instagram.com/tcthevision
Joe Grind swapped the studio for the sofa, and anime is the reason why. This week we sat down with Joe Grind, the rapper turned creator behind Joey's Fun House, the gaming and anime channel he built out of his own front room. We got into how he moved from gangster rap into anime and gaming content, why letting go of the old music process felt free, and how shows like One Piece, Naruto and X-Men rewired the way he sees himself, his family and his mistakes. It goes deep: victim mentality versus ownership, being a nerd who had to be a lion growing up in Peckham, raising kids who know exactly what they love, and finding your own lane out of anyone's shadow. Real talk about growth, wrapped in the shows we all love. CHAPTERS 00:00 It's Joe Grind, not Joe Grant: the name debate 02:16 Joe Grind the man vs Joey's Fun House the IP 03:00 Leaving the rap grind: why making content felt free 04:40 The gift and the curse of doing everything yourself 05:08 "You don't quit music": COVID and the last album 05:53 Lockdown, Naruto, and craving deeper conversations 06:47 Joey's Game and Tech, and talking Invincible with Giggs 08:58 Being yourself when the mandem don't get it 11:02 A nerd who had to be a lion in Peckham 12:16 Star Wars vs Harry Potter, and reading power 14:38 Why One Piece and Tokyo Revengers hit different 15:56 How X-Men taught him Martin Luther King vs Malcolm X 16:34 The GOAT debate and defending Batman 20:52 The greatest villain, and the "as a Black man" question 26:20 How Naruto saved his life 29:31 What Luffy taught him about accountability 36:15 "You don't wait for people": the content mindset 47:33 Inside Joey's Fun House and building with Naniverse GUEST Joey's Fun House YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UC24zcu9DnWbFSRaPA3XBU_Q Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joeysfunhouse TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@joeysfunhouse Music: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4e8opWGsP5Yvc80ThFWoMW Nani Talks Produced by Naniverse. #NaniTalks #JoeGrind #OnePiece TC The Vision: http://instagram.com/tcthevision The Quantum One: http://instagram.com/the_quantum_one Slick: http://instagram.com/slickcrafted Junior: http://instagram.com/juniorox_ Tun3s: http://instagram.com/_stay_tun3d Jazzy: http://instagram.com/_jazmine4 Producer | Director: http://instagram.com/theblackkstar Sound Design: http://instagram.com/kayper.d.w Visual Architect: http://instagram.com/tcthevision
Anime recommendations, one all time fight scene claim, and a drip debate that runs the whole wardrobe. It is the What List. We sat back down with the MNMLST founders to run through what everyone is actually watching right now. The One Piece live action pulls off a rewatch, the lore goes deep into Joy Boy and the Void Century, and one JJK fight gets called the greatest fight scene in anime, period. We hand out warnings for the do not watch list, put respect on Kagurabachi and Frieren, and Slick pulls back the curtain on the Naniverse.io original IP, artwork and all. Then the only question that matters: which anime character has the most drip? This is Nani Talks, the only anime podcast from the culture. #TheWhatList #AnimeRecommendations #MNMLST CHAPTERS 00:00 Welcome: it is the What List 01:07 What is everyone watching right now 01:24 One Piece: the live action rewatch and Void Century lore 03:08 Favourite arcs: Skypiea, Marineford and Impel Down 05:05 Alabasta, Poneglyphs and Nico Robin 06:32 JJK: the greatest fight scene in anime, period 07:10 Gaara vs Madara, Solo Leveling and the Broly movie 10:54 Demon Slayer Infinity Castle comparison 11:53 Tougen Anki and the fan service problem 13:09 Slick reveals the Naniverse original IP 15:52 Could MNMLST be featured in an anime? 16:59 Dandadan: the wife story and Turbo Granny 18:30 The do not watch list: Goblin Slayer, Beastars, Boku no Pico 19:33 The online shopping skill anime and other hidden gems 21:57 Sentenced to Be a Hero and the B-tier pile 23:14 Fate Strange Fake and the watch order problem 24:27 Kagurabachi: the manga everyone should be reading 25:06 Frieren: how magic fights should look 26:55 JoJo Steel Ball Run and anime fashion 30:11 Which anime character has the most drip? 33:02 Muzan, Best Jeanist, Lelouch and Tobirama 34:09 Zoro's fits and the time skip SHOP MNMLST Website: https://mnmlst.co.uk TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@officialmnmlst Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/officialmnmlst/ (MNMLST = "minimalist" without the vowels) LISTEN TO NANI TALKS New episodes every Monday at 7:30pm.

MNMLST are back, but this time there is no honour, only points. We strap the founders into Nani Headz, our anime guessing game: one card on the head, one clue at a time, and a scoreboard the judges keep changing mid round. Zoro's honour, Nico Robin's bounty, Muzan's demon sister, Astro Boy and a Beerus recount all make an appearance, plus a tie breaker, a shouting match with the ref, and a "best wife of all time" debate that nearly ends a friendship. This is Nani Talks, the only anime podcast from the culture. CHAPTERS 00:00 Welcome and who is in the building 00:29 The rules: guess the anime character 00:46 Round one: Zoro's honour and Master Roshi 01:37 Reincarnated as Slime and the four emperors 03:59 Arguing with the judges over every point 05:17 Poison girls and slime jokes 07:22 Naruto, My Hero Academia and the seven point rule 09:27 The singing bit that cost a team the round 10:22 Tie breaker: one player from each team 11:22 Nico Robin's bounty and Baroque Works 13:14 Demon Slayer: Muzan 15:17 Card description chaos 16:27 Astro Boy, Beerus and a scoring recount 17:29 Best wife of all time debate 19:07 Honour, one more time 20:04 Slick's team fight for an extra round 21:03 Final round and bonus rounds 25:03 Well done to our guests, next time on Nani Talks SHOP MNMLST Website: https://mnmlst.co.uk TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@officialmnmlst Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/officialmnmlst/ (MNMLST = "minimalist" without the vowels) LISTEN TO NANI TALKS New episodes every Monday at 7:30pm.

A 40 year old gets told he is too old for anime hoodies and resin statues. So we put it to the mandem: change your lifestyle, or change your girl? We sat down with the founders of MNMLST, Jabir and Raihan, to settle whether anime streetwear is actually dying, where the line sits between a cash grab and genuinely promoting anime, and what Pokemon on a t-shirt really says about the culture. Then it turns deep: what honour actually means, read through Naruto, Itachi, Obito and a Vinland Saga moment that stuck with the room. This is Nani Talks, the only anime podcast from the culture. CHAPTERS 00:00 Welcome and who is in the building 00:29 The Anime Dilemma: too old for anime hoodies? 02:34 Change your lifestyle or change your girl? 03:47 Does age kill it?

Anime merch used to mean slapping a loud character on a tee. MNMLST is rewriting that. In this episode of Nani Talks, the only anime podcast from the culture, we sit down with Jabz and Raihan, the two founders behind MNMLST: an anime-inspired streetwear brand built out of Camden, North London. They started with about a thousand pounds each, no investor, no safety net, just two anime fans who wanted to wear their love for the culture without it feeling cringe. We get into the real stuff: turning an idea into an actual clothing brand, designing faith-consciously (why their characters often have closed eyes and why iconography beats big graphics), the line between fashion and merch, what it really costs to license anime IP, how a garment is actually manufactured, and giving back through the Liberation Collection and youth workshops in Camden. If you have ever thought about starting a brand, or you just love anime fashion done properly, this one is for you. CHAPTERS 00:00 Who makes the best anime streetwear? 00:55 From idea to a real clothing brand 01:59 MNMLST origin story: two guys, a dream, £1K each 04:59 What the name means: if you know, you know 05:58 Faith and design: why the eyes stay closed 08:21 What sets MNMLST apart from cringe anime merch 10:38 Inside the design process 13:13 Fashion vs merch: "we're a brand, not merch" 13:32 Streetwear now, high fashion later 13:58 Camden roots and London style 15:55 Giving back: the Liberation Collection and youth workshop 18:19 Clothing as Nakama: community and meaning 20:46 Licensing anime IP: can you, and what does it cost? 23:38 Manufacturing: building a garment from scratch 29:52 IP clearance and copyright: what you can and can't do 32:57 The business reality, and why they do it 35:39 What's next: drops, the Varsity jacket, One Piece summer 37:08 Partners, support and the entrepreneur's lifestyle SHOP MNMLST Website: https://mnmlst.co.uk TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@officialmnmlst Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/officialmnmlst/ (MNMLST = "minimalist" without the vowels) LISTEN TO NANI TALKS New episodes every Monday at 7:30pm.

In this episode, the table gets into One Piece moving seasonal, why classic 80s and 90s anime is getting harder to find, whether live-action anime can actually work, and the bigger conversation around AI in anime. Is AI just a tool for creators, or does it risk replacing the creative friction that makes great stories feel human? The conversation also turns to Naniverse.io and the future of anime platforms: what streaming is missing, why authenticity matters, how creators can be supported properly, and what the anime community needs next. ## Chapters 00:00 Intro: The WHAT List 00:53 One Piece moves seasonal 03:38 Weekly anime nostalgia: Naruto, Bleach and appointment viewing 08:36 Why classic 80s and 90s anime is harder to find 10:26 Old anime art styles, 3D remakes and preserving classics 20:58 Live-action anime: Gundam, Blue Lock and Sakamoto Days 23:31 AI and anime: tool or threat? 24:48 AI trailers, pitches and creator shortcuts 29:26 Training data, ownership and creative friction 34:04 Why creators cannot outsource their brain to AI 35:39 Using AI as reference, not replacement 44:25 AI voices, AI artists and authenticity 47:18 Studios using AI between the frames 50:33 Naniverse.io and what anime platforms are missing 54:28 Creator hubs for novels, manga and anime 56:00 Quality over quantity on streaming platforms 59:02 What does quality actually mean? 01:01:43 What the anime community is missing • Drop a comment: Is the UK gaming scene finally ready for a true open-world takeover? • Join the Naniverse waitlist: https://naniverse.io • Subscribe to Nani Talks for the only anime & gaming podcast from the culture.
