So here we are folks, my first Monthly Feature! You might have to bend yourself down to see it, but I promise you're in for a great editorial. Each month, I'll be writing about things of interest, things to keep in mind, and things to look out for: anime, rpgs, mangas, voice actors, and even what fans might want to see being discussed! What can I say? I write for you. That's right, all of you! Being that I was introduced into the Japanese and gaming culture at a young age, I'd like to say I think I know a thing or two. Thanks to that, I'd say having this ability to be able to have something for my writings will be a great insert for the Ranger Radio Network.

As you continue reading this, I want you to know my main goal as a non-radio host (at least for now) will first and always be your input as the fans. Not even my fans, persay, but of the network as a whole. You're our primary reason for being here after all, and that's what makes you awesome! So I bet you're probably curious about how I'm going to start things off for this month right? Well, we're going to put off the usual topics of my editorials for a little something special these next couple of months. Being that this network is still in it's earlier stages, I felt it only be fair that you as the listener and viewer, get to know your main radio/video hosts a little better!

In honor of commemorationg the original run of Poolboy and Panda (which will be discussed later), this month we're going to have a one on one interview with none other than the "Panda" himself. You guessed it! The Hohenheim, The Hohopapa, The Panda. If you ever had something you're curious about, wanted to know, or never had that ability to ask? That's what I'm here for! We'll be holding an iterview this month with Hohenheim. Next month: EmJay.

That being said, I say we quit stalling and get on with it, don't you?

Panda: When I first joined the Rangers I was known as the Real Life Hohenheim. Since that was way too long to say in the chatroom it was shortened to Hohenheim...then Hohopapa from there. After a while people noticed I used phrases like "What the panda??" and my smileys in AIM are panda faces so I became Hohopapa the Panda.

RJ: Poolboy & Panda? How was this idea thought of?

Panda: Poolboy & Panda was created out of the minds of myself (who was well known in the Risemball circuit) and EmJay the Poolboy (who is a big sports fan and is a fan of shows like Mike and Mike in the Morning).

RJ: What made you want to bring it back?

Panda: We always wanted to bring the show out of hiatus but was not sure what we wanted to do with it. Our answer came from the work of people like Doug Walker and all the guys at TGWTG. (That Guy With The Glasses.)

RJ: What can you tell those of us who don't know but might be interested in the show to keep an eye out for (from the old and new)?

Panda: Both the new and old versions of the show are based on the same thing...we want to give Rangers something they can enjoy listening to and speak directly to them.

RJ: In an earlier aired episode of, "The Poolside with EmJay" sources say you love Sunkist. Confirm or deny?

Panda: I do enjoy Sunkist a lot...but I no longer drink 4 liters a day like I did in High School. Yes my liver and kidneys are still functioning.

RJ: Is there anything else you'd like us to know about you?

Panda: Look for me at conventions! I will either be dressed as Hohenheim or Nekozawa. Most likely there will be a catgirl, Sunkist, or a panda somewhere nearby as well. =D

That about wraps up our time for this month. I'd like to thank Hohopapa once again for doing this interview with me, I think it's a great start off to a beautiful website. If you've got any questions or comments, you can direct them to me at your preferred method of choice. You can find all you need to know after clicking the "Hosts" tab on the main page. Once redirected, all you need to know can be conviently located there. As for me? I've got some shrimp to fry [it's ironically funny because I'm short you see] so i'll see you around next time! <3
