Rider Love - A Kamen Rider Podcast

This week on Rider Love, we finally witness Yua casting aside her allegiance to ZAIA  in Zero-One 32 & 33! We also get our first look at Aruto’s next powerup, and discuss the precautions Toei is taking as production resumes.   This podcast was recorded one week before this posting. The protests following the murder of George Floyd had just begun and had certainly not become what they have today. We do not make mention of them in this episode. We want to make it clear that all of us here at Rider Love fully support these peaceful protests and agree that they are sadly needed to stand up to the blatant discrimination that takes place every day in this country. We mourn the deaths of all those who have fallen victim to racism at the hands of law enforcement officials, and hope that by taking a stand, changes will be made, and that those responsible will be brought to justice. Please follow this link for more information on what you can do to help. Stay strong. Be kind. Stay safe. Black Lives Matter.   0:33 –

And Kamen Rider Kuuga is now streaming on TokuSHOUTsu!   1:22 – Opening  41:36 – News 1:03:12 – Spoiler Train! 1:17:46 - Zero-One 29   Website: www.RiderLovePodcast.com Twitter: www.twitter.com/RiderLOVEcast Email: RiderLovePodcast@gmail.com
