We've finally reached Episode 20 of The Lookout. Jeff and Meelz are past the halfway point of the Buu Saga, and Gohan is about to swoop in and steal the show, right? We talk about the character evolution of Gohan and his questionable trajectory in the series, including the legendary Mystic Gohan. Meanwhile, Buu is taking no prisoners and the bodies are piling up as he targets the Z-Fighters and Gotenks and Piccolo attempt to find a way to stop him. Oh, and Goku's back. Stay tuned for more episodes of The Lookout every Wednesday. FOLLOW The Lookout @RNCRADIOLIVE @MeelzTV @oldnewsboy

Vegeta's dead. Goku's...technically still dead. Gohan's presumed dead. What's an arc to do without it's three main stars? Rob (@uglynewyork) joins Meelz and Jeff to talk about the latest events in the Majin Buu saga, including Goku introducing the series to one of the more strong aspects of the show — fusion, Goku turning Super Saiyan 3, Gohan's useless should've been off-screen training, and Majin Buu becoming good and then right back to becoming the villain of the series.

We're officially underway with the third season of The Lookout, in which we chronicle the Buu Saga in it's entirety as voted by the fans. For Episode 17, we're joined by Johnny Barnes (@johnny_barnes on Twitter / @johnbarnes on Soundcloud) of the Local Heat podcast to discuss the beginning of the Buu Saga which is honestly, a lot of tournaments and The Great Saiyaman arc. We quickly run through The Other World Tournament and what exact purpose did it serve (coughGOKUFANSERVICEcough), The Great Saiyaman Saga and introducing a new crop of Dragon Ball characters, and finally the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament which truly kicks off everything moving forward regarding the rebirth of Majin Buu.

We've reached the NBA Finals of the Dragon Ball Z world. Welcome to the Cell Games ladies and gentlemen. And it was so good big that we had to split it in two parts. Meelz and Jeff set the scene of one of the most memorable arcs in Dragon Ball including the pre-Cell Games filler (7:30), Goku abducts Dende from New Namek to make him the Earth's new Guardian (15:50), When was Goten conceived (24:00), The introduction of Hercule to the series (26:30), the incredibly intense battle between Goku and Cell which leads to one of the coldest maneuvers we've ever seen in Dragon Ball history (34:30). Who will win the tournament? Stay tuned to Part 2, dropping later this week!

Perfect Cell is like "The World Is Yours", "Life's a Bitch", and "It Ain't Hard to Tell" all in one. Episode 11 of the The Lookout podcast with Meelz and Jeff picks up where we left off in Episode 9 as the Saiyans prepare to figure out how they're going to #BEATUPCELL, which drags them into the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. With all the main characters out of commission for a while, Piccolo steps up and faces The Androids...but when Cell comes along, his new, flossy powers are quickly outmatched which brings 16 into the fold. We talk about the amazing fight between Android 17/Piccolo, Cell stanced up, and Android 16 being super OP. Within this episode we also travel through Cell's two transformations in the series, the significance of each and exactly how much of this was Krillin's fault. Tune into the RNC RADIO LIVE playlist.

All my friends are dead, push me to the edge. Episode 10 covers the TV special 'The History of Trunks', which plays a pivotal role in telling the background story of Future Trunks, who traveled through time to save the future after his timeline was destroyed by two killer Androids. We run through how dark this special is, the various and tons of plot holes that occur in this story, the number of deaths that pile up in a matter of minutes and we ask ourselves possibly the most important question: Does this thing even hold up today? We also kick off the podcast by recapping the week in Dragon Ball news that includes a new Dragon Ball anime coming down the pipeline, new designs from the upcoming Dragon Ball movie, and RIP Jose Lavat. We've re-upped the RNC RADIO LIVE playlists with the newest songs in hip hop.

On Episode 9 of The Lookout, Jeff and Meelz continue to break down The Android saga as they run through the humbling of Vegeta by the hands of Android 18, Piccolo becomes the "Super Namek" — whatever that is, the spooky introducing of the man they call Cell, and why time traveling and multiple timelines in this series is literally the most confusing thing ever.
