ElectricSistaHood


Join self-proclaimed geeks (and actual sisters) NinJaSistah and Pandalicious each week as they share a unique look at video games new and old. From console gaming (Xbox, Playstation, Wii) to mobile (iOS and Android), triple "A" titles to independent developer releases, trade show coverage and even one-on-one interviews, these ladies review and preview it all. Sprinkle in a little bit of anime and tech gadget and a whole lot of randomness and you've got yourself an episode of ElectricSistaHood.

Live for Love. Die for LOVE! This week's ESH Cast is filled to the brim with news! Sweet, glorious, geek-sexy, news! Ninja opens the show with her dismay over not being able to attend the Star Wars Celebration event in Anaheim last week. (Nor the upcoming one in London in July.) Mortal Kombat X? We got something to say about it. Do you wanna hear about the latest Nintendo 3DS updates? Panda spends some time talking about that before leading into her latest anime obsessions. The first one is Nisekoi: Fake Love. The second one was one Ninja suggested to […]

This week we're talking gadgets, games, and anime - the ESH trifecta - starting with the Apple Watch and working our way to a couple of anime series. We kick off the show talking about the Apple Watch pre-order event, and make no mistake folks...the Apple Watch thirst is real! Within minutes of launching the pre-order site, orders were backlogged 4-6 weeks for shipping. We transition from gadget talk to summer season anime, and there are some interesting shows streaming through various providers right now. Our personal fave, Crunchyroll including Panda's new obsession Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma and Ninja's […]

Not to be confused with the living dead, or the walking dead...just good, old-fashioned, "This here thing is no more. It has ceased to be." Unlike this new episode of our weekly podcast, the online streaming game service/platform OnLive has run it's course. The doors are closed, and it's patents have been sold to Sony. This week we talk about the end of OnLive, and reasons why it was unable to really own a piece of the gaming market (with competitors like the big three themselves - Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo - as well as services like Valve's Steam and […]

Oh, those lying liars and the lies they tell. This week the sistah's talk anime and gaming, all while battling various colds and illnesses. From the farce that is The Testament of Sister New Devil (which NinJa enjoys never saying the same way twice throughout the episode) and Sailer Moon Crystal to the newly released Bloodborne for PS4 the infotainment doesn't stop in this episode. Sure, there are tangents. Sure there are laughs. Sure, you don't want to miss ESH Cast #428:The Lied About The Prerequisites to Succeed in Bloodborne Also, Pandalicious would like to apologize to all Hawaiians for […]

And they are probably never-ever getting back together (with Kojima Productions.) This week the sistahs kick off the show talking gaming news. Ninja brings up the "rumors" surrounding Konami and Hideo Kojima. You know, the ones suggesting that they are distancing themselves from each other. All the evidence is there and from the looks of it, it doesn't look amicable. Panda is shocked by the news, and brings up concerns about the announced, yet-to-be-released Kojima+Del Toro Silent Hills. Speculation runs high as the sistahs walk through what could be the last few moves of this industry visionary before he officially […]

With a title like this you wouldn't believe just how long we talk about Apple This week's episode had a little bit of everything: some nostalgia about the recently passed PAX EAST 2015, conversations about the latest news coming out of Apple, some brief chit chat about Ori and the Blind Forest, which was recently released for the XBOX One, and lastly a brief trip down anime road. Ninja jumps right in and talks about the Apple Watch and the newly upgraded Macbook series of computers. Ninja contemplates her medium "baller" status while talking about the three levels of watches. […]

What do you get when you drop the sister's off at Boston's largest video game convention? A couple of tangents and our annual PAX East roundtable podcast! We spent 3 days exploring the show floor, trying out a bunch of new video and tabletop games, and buying merch for those of you unable to attend Penny Arcade Expo East 2015 (PAX East baby) and we had a blast. NinJa went hands-on with Amplitude from Harmonix (after pre-ordering the forthcoming - and show stealing - Rock Band 4 on the Xbox One), Disruptor Beam's Star Trek: Timelines on iOS, Compulsion Games […]

PAX East is just around the corner – the snow encased corner The Sistahs are back from a clip show and frankly it's probably the best "back from a clip show" show that they've done. After the break they jumped into a discussion that they've had over the last 9 years of the show: Geek versus Nerd. The age old debate. After that Panda and Ninja take some time to warn – not warm – convention goers of the weather they will be desending into when they arrive this Boston on March 5th through 8th. Snow. Ice covered snow. It's […]

In the early days of audio recording and radio broadcasting, there were special lights that indicated if a microphone was on and recording. Those indicators don't really exist anymore when it comes to podcasting, so some people aren't always aware they are being recorded. This is the case when Pandalicious is being recorded for the ESH podcasts. This week's podcast is the result of Pandalicious and, to a lesser degree, NinJaSistah just being themselves during a typical ESH recording. Inevitably, when they catch themselves "being recorded," they demand that the sound bites never be used in a clip show podcast. […]

Better late than never we always say. In this week's show we talk about everything from depressing commercials during the big game, to tabletop games you gotta try and winter season anime series you can't miss. Also tangents This week we talk about the Exploding Kittens Kickstarter that nearly everyone and their cousin has backed already from creators Matthew Inman (you know, the guy that does The Oatmeal), Elan Lee (Xbox, ARGs), and Shane Small (Xbox, Marvel). At this point, what are you waiting for? Go back it before it's too late you fool!) We also talk about the anime […]
