Thanks for listening!
Patlabor elevator pitch: a workplace comedy about police in mecha; Hill Street Blues with giant robots. Occasionally gets philosophical.

Martin, I like both of those pitches. I think they do a good job of catpuring Patlabor’s essence.

Thanks for stopping by! We are old, if nothing else haha. This was a lot of fun to record but also pretty different from our typical episodes, so don’t be too shocked if the format seems to shift dramatically.
